Crystal Lake Recreational Swimming 511 U.S. 30, Rock Falls, IL 61071

"Want to relax and have fun at the beach with your children on a beautiful day? Not here. Here we close down due to beautiful weather. We plan on running our business straight into the ground. Expect to overpay for everything. Once you get inside, take a stroll on our sandy beaches that are littered with small rocks and trash. Love the nice cool lake water? Enjoy the water with biting fish, not to mention the water isn't see through crystal, it's more of a foggy green. Let's just be very honest. This place is a joke and the owners are the punchline. They can't even setup a professional telephone directory or website page, so that their customers can get ahold of them to see if they are even open. They should just sell the place to someone who won't ruin it or shut it down because they don't deserve your money."

"the water here is gross, fish bite constantly, overly expensive. unfriendly and unwelcoming staff on top of all that. this is not somewhere i’d recommend going unless you want to pay a fortune"

"So many reasons for giving only one star. This was the best place to be when I was younger. But had gone downhill as of late. The hours and days open are always changing which makes it hard to plan. I understand closing for bad weather but they close alot when it's beautiful outside. And then blame it on weather. It's a lake so I know there will be some fish in it. But it's PACKED with bluegill and they swarm and BITE. My kids still love it so much daughter thought it would be fun to work there. She was never put on the schedule but only called in when no one else would work. Well she worked 3 or 4 days. He held her pay over a month. Then...paid her $20 for the whole time she worked. Definitely not a place that does fair business"

"My son had so much fun he didn't get to go in go-kart & he was so busy he only came out of the water once! He told me he loved it here & he really wanted to come back again"

"Love this place. Although as a grandmother with small grandchildren. It would be nice if it would stay open longer than when school starts. Also, as an adult it would be nice to relax without as many children. I never understood why closed when children go to school. Not all are school age. Now you even have camping. I'm sure they are not agreeable with the closing early either."
