    Roosevelt Swimming Pool is part of Roosevelt Park south of downtown. It is one of several public…read moreswimming pools run by San Antonio Parks and Rec. All outdoor public swimming pools run by the city are free to all, open six days a week throughout the summer swimming season, and follow very similar rules and protocol. This review will focus on Roosevelt Swimming Pool and what sets it apart from other city swimming pools. As with most city pools, you are required to sign in at the front desk with name, age group, and gender. These roles help the parks department obtain funding to continue operation of the pools, so it is very important to sign in. Roosevelt Pool is a throwpack to 1950's pool design. Larger than most city pools, Roosevelt also is kidney shaped with several rows of concrete bleachers. This is one of the more popular pools and there are always dozens of people in the water, especially at the shallow end. It can get very crowded in the shallow area on weekends and holidays. The depth ranges from 3ft to about 10ft. There is usually ample room for swimming laps although the pool sides in the deep end can become crowded with teenagers, and we all know how they can be. Although it is a bigger pool, parking is limited, and you may find yourself waiting or walking up a stretch of hill to the entrance. There are male and female changing rooms that double as bathrooms. Roosevelt Pool is feeling its age, and you will want to be careful not to cut yourself on the rough cracks on the walls and floor of the pool. They hurt! The pool has a small waterslide for the kids, but they rarely open it up all season. Not sure why, but they just don't seem to like to. The manager for this pool is not the friendliest, and that attitude is passed along to the lifeguards who can be surly but are generally nice. Fruit and water are allowed in the pool area, but no other food. They have hourly or bi-hourly breaks for pH leveling, and you will spend between 20-30 minutes of time out of the water per break. The concrete can be very hot and shade is limited.

    Alot of room to swim and life vests provided. Very clean changing areas/ restrooms. The kids love…read moreRoosevelt Pool!

    WOW!!! Now that is how you build a swim center!! We came to NISD Natatorium for a swim meet from…read moreAustin. The best swim meet facility we have been to yet. None like that in Austin. Very impressive. We were swimming in their outside pool this weekend with 20+ lanes. You could see all perfectly from the stands and a nice cool breeze blows over the trees while you watch. Plenty of room to spread out. The meet ran a little longer than anticipated, so I would recommend the meet organizer allows more time in their schedule or reduce the number of 10 minute breaks between events. Otherwise, everything else was great. I look forward to my kids swimming there again. Definitely worth the drive to San Antonio for a swim meet.

    Great facility. Since I've been coming here, the locker room, restroom, pool floor and other areas…read morehave been upkept & clean. Have used the facility for swimming laps during open swim hours, which is $4 each time you come. My only complaint is that I wish there were a way you could use a debit/credit card to pay; I don't always have cash or check on me. Ok now for the pools- There is an indoor, outdoor lap pool and diving well. The time clock works great and the pool is clean. Water temperature is on par with any other pool I've swam in. Highly recommend if you are using to swim laps. Many lanes are open when I've come! Thumbs up from this swimmer!

It is one of several public swimming pools run by San Antonio Parks and Rec. All outdoor public swimming pools run by the city are free to all, open six days a week throughout the summer swimming season, and follow very similar rules and protocol. This review will focus on Southside Lions Swimming Pool and what sets it apart from other city swimming pools. As with most other pools, you are required to sign in at the front desk with name, age group, and gender. These roles help the parks department obtain funding to continue operation of the pools, so it is very important to sign in. Southside Lions is one of only a handful of outdoor public pools with a diving board. Usually, the diving board is open for the second half of the hour if patrons wish to dive. If the diving board isn't open, request it from a lifeguard. They may or may not open it based on several factors, but one of them is that patrons want to dive, so don't hesitate to ask. While the diving board is open, the deep end is closed to other swimmers. The deepend at Southside Lions is deeper than most other pools bottoming out at 10ft. Great pool for diving. There is usually ample room for lap swimming, and the trees on the west side of the pool provide shade to swimmers on hot afternoons. As such, at the beginning of the season, this pool may be colder than others that do not provide shade. The changing rooms are located near the pool and (at least the Men's side, I can't speak for the Women's side) provide bathroom facilities as well as a shower to rinsing off the chlorine. Many pools require hourly or bi-hourly breaks to balance the pH levels in the water. These are usually done on the hour and all patrons are required to leave the water for around twenty minutes. Ice cream trucks with snacks are usually idle in the parking lot if you're looking for something to snack on while you wait. Do note that only fresh fruit and water are allowed past in the swimming pool area. Southside Lions Pool also has a toddler pool with shallow water and sprinklers so the little ones don't miss out on any fun. Weekend afternoons can get a little busy and once a week, but normally, there is ample room to swim. We have been there before when we were the only family there. Once a week a free water aerobics class is provided while still keeping the pool open for all patrons. Call their desk for details. The lifeguards at this pool are also not obnoxious at this pool which is a big plus. This pool is located on the South East side of the city. If you are looking for a similar pool on the West or North side, I have found that Dellview has an identical layout, including diving board and toddler splash pool. This is one of my family's favorite pools to visit.

    Great place for swimming with the Family and cooking out. . And thank goodness the pools are open…read morenow to swim with the kids .
