This was such a cool event! Highly recommend for pawrents. Staff were really friendly and helpful, especially the manager ( I think) and the medical guy. My doggy was bleeding bc she damaged her toenail. The staff noticed it and offered to wrap it up for her. read more

We have been here a few times already for the annual doggie dip day event they put on every year before they close the pool for the season . Our dog is an avid swimmer and loves splashing around in all bodies of water and the pool is a rare treat for him ! There is a shallow end for wading that opens up into the larger snd deeper lap pool area . It's a very clean and well maintained swimming pool for humans and dogs alike. They have plenty of benche seating and tables to rest at . Clean bathrooms. They did have a few lifeguards on duty watching all the fun today ! read more

I love the splash area for the littles they have so much fun! They have a section for the deep end and a slide as well. Many tables with umbrellas and you can take your own food, chairs and canopy as well. Prices are super reasonable for snacks they sell too. read more

Tried this place yesterday and it was pretty nice. Pros: 1)Nice big pool. 2) Divided in sections so kids who can't swim can stay on shallow side. 3) There was a white water slide on the deeper end for those who could swim. It's a very slow slide. But still fun. 4) Not too overly crowded 5) people were nice 6) kids had fun 7) you can bring in your own food and drinks! 8) pricing wasn't bad: $4 adults and $2 kids, i think. 9) Plenty of parking. 10) bathrooms were clean. 11) there was a hot shower for little ones who may be freezing after being in the pool all day. It warms them up. 12) very clean pool. 13) lots of life guards. Yay! Cons: no cons!!! Try this place with your little ones. They'll love it. There are no in and out privileges. read more

Clean pool had fun, just wish they open the snack bar& more shade for families. We had actually been there a few times,kiddos had fun

What a fantastic, fun family activity! The pool is large and has very shallow area for all ages and abilities to play and splash, along with deeper waters that are separated with floating delineators so every skill level swimmer finds a suitable place to play. The park has lots of novelty water sprinklers and spouts in the shallow wading area--some which are non- working--but, there are certainly enough to keep your imagination happy! Diving IS allowed in deeper waters, all of which is overseen by a team of lifeguards who take two scheduled breaks during the day whereby all swimmers and waders wait outside the water. The break lasts about 10-15 minutes and is well received by all, according to my experience. Tables with umbrella shades, sun lounges, hot/cold showers, both inside and outside are available as are adequate restrooms designed for changing and lockers for stowing of personal items. I too, saw a specialized lift (though not in use during general public swims) available for special needs swimmers using wheelchairs! There are seated showers as well, again, both inside and outside! Check with the front desk or call for that specialized swimmer info. Note: there is a super slide that does not seem to be in use, so be forewarned. I have always found enough to do that I did not even miss the slide, personally. Cost to attend is nominal. No swim caps are required, but life vests for non swimmers are recommended, though not required! read more

ALWAYS a good/fun time when we go VERY reasonably priced as well!! The place is ALWAYS clean. Never had an issue when I've went and they let u bring in your own food!! read more

Thanks City of Sacramento for providing a nice pool to enjoy. Great staff always friendly and helpful.

I've been to the Pannell Meadowview Pool a couple of times now and I have to say that I'm pretty impressed. For just $2, that gives me access to the pool all day long. The pool is nicely maintained and everything is clean, which is important and actually surprised me. Even the bathrooms were very clean and dry. (No trails of wet toilet paper on the ground, like at other pools often times.) There are plenty of lifeguards at all times, and they actually seem to pay good attention to the whole pool. I've seen them call out running, hanging on the lane rope, and general horseplay. There is plenty of seating, with reclining beach loungers, tables with chairs, bleachers, and a nice grassy area also. Notes: -Plenty of free parking. -No in-and-out privileges, make sure you bring everything that you need from the car. read more

Meadowview has always been my go to recreational pool since I was a kid. I would come here every year. Sometimes it gets a little crowded but it seems that there's less people now. Maybe it's because some schools are back in sesh or somes. But yeah the pool is clean and the water is clear. I love the kiddy side. It's definitely worth a buck (Under 17) or two (18+) read more

First off my review is based off of the 'dogs' swim day... They allows all breeds of dogs during Oct to come and swim before the pool is drained and cleaned. I love it: there are so many dogs and people having a great time. The staff is friendly and the site is well maintained and clean... Love it!.!!.!!. read more

Great recreational swim at Pannell Pool today. Lots of kids having fun, and lots of lifeguards keeping it safe. Has kiddie area, shallow area and deep side. Also clean bathrooms and a healthy snack bar. Will visit again. read more

This place is great despite the fact it's located in a not so good neighborhood. Admission is just $1 and you can bring in your own food and drinks. The lifeguards are also pretty good about not letting the bigger kids rough house in the kiddie pool area. read more

The pricing is $2 for kids and $4 for adults. This wasn't posted online but still affordable and fair pricing considering the amenities here. The staff at the front desk and at the pool are personable and attentive. The kiddie pool is huge and great for little kids and toddlers. I think the only real thing missing is shade over lounge chairs, however, there are patio tables with umbrellas, if needed. Lifeguards on duty and clean, fresh feeling water make this pool a great place for kids and families. read more

I HATE this effing pool b/c it is not reliable with it's posted hours on the website nor is it consistent with what the answering machine says. I first started going here last summer. Last year I bought a season card for $35 and you get 20 lap swim passes. At least 5 times last summer they were not open for lap swim either due to maintenance, swim meets, or whatever other shit they do there. It's a waste of time...you drive all the way out there and find they're closed. Apparently there isn't enough money to update the city website nor update the answering machine. I have left over unused punches and wanted to use them this summer. (This year it is$50 for a 20 punch card) I head out today and there's another effing swim meet. I'm so pissed at those f*#(#$@! Save yourself some money, time, gas, and fustration and find somewhere else to do your lap swim. Also, beware of the kids that swim during rec swim hours. Some will try to steal your stuff...a kid tried to steal my towel cuz he couldn't find his own...I yelled at him it was mine and he left it alone...thug. read more
