There are a handful of options for gyms in Concord and the surrounding area. Beede is not a Boston…read moreSports Club or the like -- it is much smaller than those places. There's a cardio room with about 7 treadmills, 3 bikes, 7 ellipticals, and two rowing machines. The second room is a weight room with both machines and free weights and a good selection of bands, weighted balls, etc. The other major plus is the pool. Really nice 8 lane 25 m pool, diving pool, body temperature therapy pool and a kid's 1 ft deep pool. The trainers and staff are friendly -- New England friendly. Sometimes the lifeguards are a bit strict in enforcing the rules but everybody is fundamentally nice. Lastly, compared to any other gym in the area, it's WAY less expensive to be a member!

Their staff make it seem like they genuinely hate everyone and their job. it is NOT a welcoming environment. After reading many of the other reviews I see I am not the only one complaining of the rudeness of the staff. The rude staff make me consider if my over priced membership is worth it.

The day pass fee for non-Newton residents is steep at $20 per person for what you get but I imagine it's supposed to be a deterrent. It's one of the "nicer" pool options in the area, but that's not saying much. Kids love it though.

Good location and fairy clean facility....but why not provide chairs if you can't bring your own?…read more I have frequented several pool around the area and they all offer lounge chairs or regular chairs and tables.

One of the biggest pluses is the water temperature; it's perfectly warm, which makes a huge difference for kids getting into the water.

I found the water to be very clean and the area to be sanitary; however, I did not check the restrooms. They do not allow food, but there are picnic tables inside the attached building for eating. All ages there - young to old and everywhere in between! Pool depths range from 4-5 feet. Most people are wading, but I saw one person swim laps. There are no lap lanes.

Entry is $2 for adults, or you can pay $40 for a season pass. The parking lot is small, but there's additional parking at Dilboy stadium a short walk away. No food or drink allowed (besides water of course) which is a bummer, but makes sense for health and cleanliness issues. A few other reviewers thought the pool was dirty, but I haven't found that to be true. The locker rooms/bathrooms are a little rough, but it's an old community pool, what do you expect? It's pretty packed with kids so this is not the place to come for peace and quiet. Regardless, this will be a regular haunt of mine this summer for sure!

I've lived so close to this pool for so many years and didn't find out about it until this summer…read more Oh the sweet relief of cool refreshing water that I've been missing all my Somervillian life! Dilboy pool is a really great way to beat the summer heat while having a cheap day out in the sun close to home. You can get their via public transportation by taking the 80, 87, or 88 bus, or drive to the pool and park in the lot in the back. The nice thing about this pool is that it is really big and not to full either. Mostly families visit, and they have a shallow wading pool for the tiny kiddies if you have any in tow. With 5 life guards on duty, and the deep end reaching 4 ft. 8 inches, you can feel safe in just about any inch of the pool. They also have a male and female dressing room equipped with toilets, showers, and dressing cubicles, so you can change on site if you prefer. A few changes to keep in mind that we heard from some of the regulars and confirmed with a lifeguard: 1) Chairs are no longer allowed at the pool, so bring a towel and be prepared to plop yourself down on the concrete. 2) They are now charging a $2 entrance fee if you go to the pool between 11 am and 1 pm. After this peak time it is free. 3) This isn't really a change, but something to be aware of if you are visiting for the first time with lots of people. The entrance to the pool is through the dressing rooms, which means your party will be briefly separated until you are on the pool side. Happy Swimming!
