About the Business
Garfield Pool, located at 1271 Treat Avenue in San Francisco, California, recently underwent a major renovation project to improve its facilities. The renovation included a complete overhaul of the pool building and the replacement of the adjacent clubhouse building. The newly reconfigured recreation center now features a shared entry lobby, a multi-purpose courtyard, improved park accessibility, and new landscaping.
Funded by the 2012 Clean and Safe Neighborhood Parks GO Bond and IPIC Eastern Neighborhood Impact Fees, the $19.7 million project has transformed Garfield Pool into a state-of-the-art facility. The pool offers a variety of programs and classes, including lap swim, senior swim, recreation swim, fitness and exercise classes, and lessons. Detailed class information can be found in the pool schedule.
Whether you're looking to swim laps, participate in fitness classes, or simply enjoy a recreational swim, Garfield Pool has something for everyone. Visit their website for more information on purchasing swim tickets and memberships.
Reviews
"Turn up the water heat please. Mary and Mike and the team are great."
"The best swimming pool in the Bay Area. Great customer service as well as good prices"
"Pretty decent pool, except towel hangers in the showers are quite scant, the lap swimming might open slightly late (as opposed to on time or 5 minutes ahead of time to allow time to change into your swimming suit), and the cost is pricey: was $7 for a drop-in, now $8. If you went every day in the month, that'd be over $150 (they're closed Sundays and, very oddly, Mondays). The schedule is a bit chaotic and extremely restricted, with no consistent times every day for lap swimming, making it difficult to develop a healthy, easy-to-follow routine. The pool opens relatively late and closes relatively early, there's little to no chance for people who work a regular 8 am-5 pm shift to come swim here (considering transportation time before and after work to and from the pool), combined with the fact that they're closed two days per week. This pool (and all City pools) are *severely* underutilized in spite of the high demand. It's uncomfortable and potentially risky to swim with 4+ people per lane -you have to be on the lookout *constantly* to make sure you don't bump into people, and it's hard to get into a rhythm with swimmers of different skill, style, stamina, age, and speed, all crammed into the same lane (the lane divisions by speed are intended to help, but ultimately, you still have diversity of swimmers in each lane). A national lifeguard shortage is purported as the reason for the chaotic, restricted hours, but I don't understand why adults can't simply sign a waiver and come swim at their own risk -like at gyms that have swimming pools or the public beaches (neither have life guards). To promote health in the community, the pool should be open 7x per week, and could be open for unguarded, uninterrupted adult lap swim from 5:30 am to 7:30 am + 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm on workdays. Even public high schools in Daly City and Pacifica open their pools 7x per week... and somehow SF can't do it? Plenty more examples in other states. It's embarrassing for the City, honestly."
"This is an awesome pool facility. It’s very clean and so are the locker rooms and showers. It’s very kid friendly. Conveniently located next to a kids play ground."
