Bethesda Park Aquatic Center

"Had a birthday party here for my son. The room is basic, but it's kept near and clean. There are multiple lifeguards on watch at all times, and they were watching diligently. My son had a blast on the slide, and on the play area towards the right side. The water was nice and warm like a bathtub. The current on the lazy river isn't exactly that lazy lol. My son and his father enjoyed it nonetheless. Also, the woman helping at the front desk was very helpful. If you have any questions, or need to get in contact with someone, their staff responds in a timely manner. The pricing for the Aquatic Center is extremely reasonable as well."

"THANK YOU TO THE GOOGLE REVIEWER Juan Sorto THAT RECOMMENDED THIS PLACE. I love how shallow it is because I can teach my toddler to start learning how to swim. And as of today, I was told swimming lessons for special needs kids under 7 is 48 bucks for 5 sessions for 5 weeks. That's super affordable. I had a great experience, and my children loved it."

"Love this place !! Fun and inexpensive day trip!! The water was luke warm and room temp was about 80 degrees. If you throw a birthday party here, ask Staff to turn off A/C in party room. But overall we had a blast!!"

"This center is opened year round and has a pool that is kept at temperatures that are up to code. I think it's important for residents to k ow that they offer swim classes here for children who have certain learning disabilities or certain conditions. The coaches are specifically trained to work with kids who require a bit more attention and guidance."

"I visit this location frequently. My kids also take swim lessons here. Today was a bit frustrating. While in the leisure pool the lifeguard was whistle happy. Literally everything the kids did not matter what he blew the whistle. Literally my daughter was scolded because her life vest kept coming off! She can swim she just likes wearing it! Myself and the other parents were a bit annoyed. The life guards rotate and none of the other lifeguards had any complaints! For example I was told after an hour and a half of being there that my daughter could not be in the lazy river unless she was older that 6. My daughter is here to celebrate her 7th birthday! She turns 7 literally in less than 5 days! I asked to speak to a manager who completely talked over me and stated her employee was just doing his job but she did talk with the other lifeguards to mention I complained! Understood that he’s doing his job but if that’s the case you have to make sure ALL employees are doing their jobs! I understand keeping the children safe but the fun was taken out of their swim today! I also have videos and photos of the inconsistency between lifeguards that I witnessed today. Picture below shows how my daughter was sitting on the pool edge unbothered by the lifeguard. When the other life guard came he stated it was not allowed even though he witnessed her there prior 10 minutes ago standing next to the other lifeguard."
