The place is very dirty. Everywhere you look needs to be cleaned. I discussed with management. If not improved I'm gone. Covid 19 happened. Called to cancel and they said that no one was there to cancel my membership but when they reopened I could cancel. They charged my credit card in May -- didn't get any notice they reopened. Went there to cancel. They refused a refund and implied I would be charged for June due to their thirty day policy. All the pools were closed due to maintenance. You couldn't have done that while you were closed?? Don't do it.

Review: Karns Lion Pool (aka Karns Lion Library)…read more Today was my first experience at Karns Lion Pool. With the heat blazing, it seemed like the perfect day to cool off. But after our visit, I'm convinced they need to change the name to Karns Lion Library. I'll explain. First, we checked the website beforehand to see if they accepted cards. It said they did--just with a small fee--so I didn't bother grabbing cash. Turns out, they do take credit cards... just not debit cards. Which makes zero sense. It's literally the same machine, y'all. Luckily, I scraped up enough cash to get through the gate. Once inside, my daughter and I hopped on a rubber tube--one the pool actually provides--and started floating around together. That's when the Pool Czar (yes, we gave her a title) marched over and told us we couldn't be on the same tube... even though she's my daughter. That was our first clue something was off. Then we noticed how quiet it was. The place was packed, but you could hear a pin drop. No splashing, no shouting, no playing--because apparently, all of that is banned. No roughhousing. No sharing tubes. No being loud. Basically, no fun. We kept joking that if we laughed too hard, the Pool Czar would blow the whistle and banish us. Honestly, if you have loud, happy, energetic kids... this is probably not your pool. Now, for the positives: - There's a small slide, two diving boards, and a splash pad for the littles (though no lifeguard over there). - The concession stand is decent and affordable. - And despite the rules, we still had a great time with the group of us--mostly because we laughed at the whole situation. So yeah. Bring cash. Keep your voice down. And prepare for the most entertainingly quiet pool experience of your life.

The family membership is affordable and worth it if you have young children who can utilize the child watch while adults exercise. There is a great variety of group fitness classes to meet differing interests and fitness levels. We really enjoy the swimming lessons as well. We have done private, semi-private and group and they really helped our kids with water skills and confidence. Lessons fill up quickly, so start checking mid-month for the next round of lessons to spring up on the website. This location isn't the most modern or well-kept. There seem to be lots of issues when it rains, and the layout is very strange. The small-ish workout/weights space is accessed by first going downstairs and then back up another set of stairs in the back of the building. There is also a musty/moldy smell that kicks up our allergies at times.

On six separate occasions I have not been able to do my planned workout because the area which was scheduled to be open was not open. I get that schedules change but the very least they could do is update the online schedule. I am done wasting my time here.

​I would give Aurora Pools and Spas zero stars if I could. They were hired to come to my house and…read moredo a full pool opening. To be proactive and clear, I even sent them pictures ahead of time showing exactly what the pool looked like so there would be no surprises. ​When they finally arrived, they claimed they couldn't do the job and that it would take "multiple trips" instead. Look, I understand this is an incredibly busy time of year for pool companies, but they obligated themselves to this job. Instead of honoring that commitment, they had the nerve to charge me $250 just to pour a single 16-ounce bottle of algaecide into the water and walk away. Charging full price for an opening when they did absolutely nothing is highway robbery. ​To make matters worse, their customer service is a joke. I have tried calling them multiple times to resolve this. Every single time I get transferred to the service department, the phone just rings and rings until it finally disconnects and hangs up on me. ​Avoid this company at all costs. They will happily take your money, refuse to do the work they agreed to, and then ghost you when you call them out on it.
