This pool is for members only and you must be a Kirkland or Beaconsfield resident to become one (a member), otherwise everyone that works and who are members look at you like an invader...an intruder... It's that beautiful! They get threaten by visitors during heat waves and barrage you with nozy questions of your living standards, to see if you should be greated with kindness or shun with darting glances! OK, it's not that bad...maybe I should not drink this 5th coffee? Beautiful seating, beautiful pool. When all of the rénovations will be done we might get a membership. But why no diving boards? Sometimes mayors have crazy ideas...

Today, my Stepson went to a birthday party for his friend, and we all tagged along. It was the…read morefirst time Liam had ever been in a pool, and he had a blast. He willingly went under water several times, and refused to get out even with his lips quivering. The Aquadome in Lasalle was amazing. There are slides for kids of all ages, (Liam was obsessed with the one in the baby/toddler area), and a neat umbrella which was his second favourite spot. The room for the party was spacious, yet simple. You can buy bathing suits and floating devices at the front desk and there is also a snack bar with tables and chairs in a separate area away from the pool. We didn't try the food since the party had its own food, but it looked amazing. The family changing area was great- quite a few stalls, several changing tables for little ones and many bathrooms, all of which, were very clean. You can tell the garbages are changed frequently. I was told the separate male only changing room was larger than the family one, but I obviously didn't see the inside of it for myself. The life guards do their jobs well and ensure a safe environment. They have their seats but also stand at different points around the pool so there are several vantage points. We will definitely be going back.

I googled "things to do in Montreal" and this came up. The photos made it look like an indoor…read morebeach! There was lots of parking and this place is open very late as family swim ends at 8:45pm here! However, I think they could do better. The locker room had dirt and hair all over the floor and oddly enough there were no hooks next to the showers (unless you count the moldy benches but I didn't want to place my stuff there) Once we got into the pool, I immediately noticed that the pool floor was slimy and grimy. I've never felt that before and figured it was chlorine maybe? When I got home and googled it .. it turned out to be algae and a sign that the pool is poorly maintained. They have 3 slides, the large main one was broken and the 2 small ones were open. So, I asked the lifeguard if I could put my 3 year old son on it and she said sure just catch him since he can't swim. I went to catch him as he came down the slide and he went so fast it felt like a blow to my chest. You'd think the lifeguard could have warned me how painful it would be to catch a small child off of one of these slides! The complex that this place is in seems interesting. They have a badminton room and indoor rock climbing. I might come here to check out more activities but no more Aquadome for me! Also, I went off hours, pretty late on a weeknight, and the place was still pretty crowded. I can only imagine how hectic it gets on weekends. Way too many people. I saw several employees just walking around (not even lifeguards) and I think they should have been testing the water quality, mopping the floors, and cleaning the pool. Things that clearly needed to be done but weren't.

Bottom Line: A Spectacular Athletic Facility Run with Bureaucratic Indifference and Incompetence…read more This is an unbelievable town facility in the city of Pointe-Claire. Unfortunately, the people who run it seem to be incompetent, or at least indifferent. The Centre was named after a former, an apparently beloved, city mayor, Olive Urquhart. I'm afraid if Ms. Urquhart could see how a facility named after her is being run, she would be spinning in her grave. Case in point: During the holidays, I could find no listing of the holiday hours on the website. When I pointed this out the the receptionist, she insisted that the hours were on the website, but failed to find them herself. Her next response was, "Well, the hours are on door." Having the hours on the door is of no use to people at home home who want to plan a workout during their day. Regular hours are posted here: https://www.pointe-claire.ca/en/territory-and-planning/places-and-sectors-of-the-city/find-a-location/olive-urquhart-sports-centre#horaire However, it appears that holiday hours are not on the site. For the record, the centre is closed from 3 August 2026 to 16 August (2026) inclusive due to the "Construction Holiday," a weird Quebec vestige dating back to the middle ages. Checking in to the facility also seems to be a tedious bureaucratic process. I have had several occasions , where the line was three people deep and it took ten minutes to get through the queue. From the laborious nature of the process, you would think people where applying for refugee status. The facility could be a great experience if they would just clean up their act.

Nager Pour La Vie is hands down the best foundation you can give your child in the water…read more Karina is extremely knowledgeable and has developed, no PERFECTED, an approach to swimming that has not only taught our three children the foundational skills to swim and be safe in and around water, but she has instilled a passion for swimming in my children that is unmatched. All three of them are hooked on water! Her approach has worked to teach all three of my very different children, and she has been so creative and efficient when working with my middle son who has DCD. My only complaint would be my kids love the water TOO much now! They swim regularly and confidently in beaches and pools. While my 7 year old is now on a competitive swim team and wishes he could still get lessons with Karina. If you choose Nager Pour La Vie, be prepared to be spending a LOT of time at the pool! My eldest son who is now 7 years old, swam with Karina from 16months to 6 years old and we wanted me to write this about Karina: "Karina got in the water with me, let me swim, we had fun and she showed me and corrected me with examples, so then I understood what to do when I was swimming. I don't think I would ever be on swim team without her, and I love swim team! If you can get her as your teacher, you are VERY lucky! Can we give her six stars?" We give her SIX stars! ******

The change rooms are kind of dark though and the showers are right there out in the open which is a tad odd. Adult swims at noon are perfect for laps and there is plenty of room for lots of people at what I think is a fairly steep price though: $5.75. I like the pool itself a lot, but would pick the free Laurier pool over this pool more often than not. My biggest complaint besides the price though? The life guards were annoying and confusing absolutely everyone by blowing their whistles every couple of minutes. People would stop, look around, wonder what we were doing wrong only to realise that it was the teenage girl lifeguards whistling at friends to bring them something or to get their attention...don't do that!
