Lots of lifeguards on duty which is nice to see. Plenty of parking too. There is one swim lane, a diving board, a 4-5 foot large section and a more shallow kids section. There's maybe 6-10 picnic tables. No lounging chairs tho but a decent amount of shade. I most recently went on a Thursday at 5pm and it was pretty much empty. More people showed up around 545 and I think there was infant swim lessons. Will be back again soon!

This waterpark is so nice for a neighborhood swim center! They have two slides (one open and one…read moreclosed tunnel style) for bigger kids and a small one for little kids. The pool was big enough to accomodate many different age groups and even had different activities to participate in while in it. There were the slides, a volleyball net, and huge floating lily pads lined up with a rope you could hold onto in order to cross on the pads! There were more than enough lifeguards on duty and the employees were all very helpful and kind. The only flaw I would say this place had was the fact that the pricing seems a bit high in my opinion. If it is a neighborhood swimming pool then it should practically be free for kids to get in and have some summer fun but the pricing was such that if you had a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children) the total out of pocket would be near $30. I guess it is cheaper than if you were to take your family to Hawaiian Falls or another water park but it still seems a bit on the expensive side to me with way less rides and attractions compared to the "real" water parks. This place is a great get-away if you want to stay near the area or just have a short outing for little kids but otherwise if you are looking for a "water park" experience then you should probably just go to one. They allow coolers and had shaded picnic tables. There is not that much parking available compared to the size of the place but it doesn't seem like it would ever be at full capacity so it doesn't seem like an issue. There are a couple of things that weren't posted on the photos on here and one of them is their skate park. Another is their little "rock climbing" mountain for little kids. These attractions aren't really big but for Lakeway it is a big deal. This area doesn't really seem to have many parks or recreational places for little kids so it was quite refreshing to see a place like this. The skate park had teenagers hanging out and a few little kids and the "rock-climbing" simulation was probably about 5 feet tall and 10 feet in diameter so it isn't too dangerous but is fun for little kids to climb on and off of.

If I could give the Lakeway Swim Center 0 stars, I would. There are serious problems here with some…read moreof the users, but lifeguards and managers refuse to deal with them. When they do, they shoot the messenger and protect the guilty. There is one woman lap swimmer who nearly everybody is afraid of. She is as mean as a snake. She has been lying to people about me repeatedly. She called me an asshole to my face in front of others, for no reason. She has been pissed off because when people ask to share my lane, if they have plastic paddles I ask them not to use them because I have been hit hard by good swimmers and it hurts. You can look it up- injuries and pain from plastic paddle hits in lap pools is a known problem. Yesterday an obviously competitive swimmer asked to share my lane. At first I said ok but then I saw he had plastic paddles so I asked him not to use them and I told him why. I was polite and so was he. He went to another lane. Next I saw the woman talking with the lifeguard- this is what she does- she befriends the female lifeguards then manipulates them into coming after me. Next, a guy in the middle lane starts talking loudly for all to hear saying "everybody has to share". He too obviously was upset at me. I have never spoken to the guy. I think he may have also been manipulated by this terrible woman. I corrected him. I said that I have no problem sharing, but I have a problem with the plastic paddles because they hurt when people hit you with them. He accused me of poor arm control, which was a lie. When sharing I always stay far on my side, and I never swam with this guy. Then I see the lifeguard standing near me with the assistant pool manager, who until recently, I thought was a friend. They were whispering. I said "Hey, come here. I want to talk to you about what has been happening here. Only the assistant director came over. I told him exactly what had happened. He told me that I cannot ask people not to use plastic paddles. Today I got a call from the pool director. Before he could say anything, I said- I am going to tell you what really happened. I told him the true story. He said that was not what he was told by multiple people. Clearly, the others were lying- probably repeating the lies the old woman told them about me. Before that, I offered to never occupy an entire lane, to demonstrate that I have no problem sharing. And I said if anybody asked to share with plastic paddles I will give up my lane and share with somebody else. And I said if that is not good enough, you can give me my money back and I will never go to your evil pool again. So that is the situation. I have more horror stories about the Lakeway Swim Center lap pool but thats enough for now. Do yourself a favor- skip this pool of Lakeway affluenza and entitlement.

THE BLACK AND WHITE: I came here on a Saturday for a trial to get my 5 month old to get used to water. Check-in is a breeze and the lessons were good. Instructors are also very nice. There is a viewing area in AC for the rest of the adults or party to chill and watch as the pool area is very warm along with the pool. There is alot of showers and changing rooms after pool time to get ready for the outside world. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, this is a great place to get your baby/toddler/kid to get used to water and swimming.

But this review is for the very unprofessional staff that works here. I will caveat, yes most people who work here are very young but please train your staff better to respond to injuries and at least try to care for the people who come to the facility! I've seen many times in basketball leagues when an injury involves blood, there's no adequate items to properly clean up blood on the courts. Literally front desk girl just gave us a roll of paper towel to clean up blood with no gloves. And she gave my team attitude for not knowing where the first aid room was and blood was gushing down my face from an open laceration. I came back after finding the first aid room to ask another question and she was upset like we were such a bother to her to even ask for help. Please retrain your staff!!!

Flying Fish Swim Academy has been effective, professional and fun for our kiddos. Within a few…read moreclasses they had our youngest able to go across the width of the pool without flotation devices. After a few more classes he was able to swim the length of the pool. Their format is very organized and the instructors have no more than three students each session. We don't have to waste time with signing up for one class and waiting weeks before they can start the next level - even if they're already ready to advance. Instead, Flying Fish has specific goals for each level and each class your child can advance to the next level. Skill updates are provided by email by the Deck Leader during class as each child completes their skill. The instructors will likely be different for each class and they all do a nice job with the kids and follow the same routine. The facility is nice with large observation windows and plenty of chairs to watch outside the pool area. There are also a few elevated tables/chairs and guest Wi-Fi. There is a play area for little siblings to stay occupied or for some playtime before class starts. Showers, changing rooms and restrooms are available for families making it easier to get multiple kids cleaned up and dressed after class. A swimsuit dryer is available so you can spin their suits and not take them home sopping wet. Swim accessories are available for purchase - goggles, swim diapers, swim caps, etc. in case you need something quick. Drinking fountains are available in the changing area and the kids love that they can have a little pack of fruit snacks after class. Thanks, Flying Fish!
