"We were here for a swim meet. The wifi is unacceptable, so they didn't allow us to connect. They also told our visiting team we were not allowed on the grass, while their team used the grass area to their delight. They made the visiting team feel very unwelcome. This is not a pool culture I would recommend to others."

"Smaller pool. We were here for a swim meet. The facility is nice and hidden (near an underpass). The grounds are nice and well kept. The meet went well, and I bet pool members enjoy this pool. I'm not sure about the rates and numbers. That could certainly sway things."

"The pool is wonderful but Judy (the manager) aka the Dark Overlord ruins most of our trips their with her overbearing and menacing nature. She is an absolute nightmare and hated, literally hated, by the vast majority of the members. One positive point for her management style is that the kids who work there, and they are all great, will never in their lives suffer through a worse boss. The place should throw her out...how do we do this?"

"Great place for families. We have dinner with it friends here about once per week. There are some strictly enforced rules however, so if you are a ruler breaker type of person you might not like it here. Super clean place. Very well kept."

"Great family friendly pool, very clean. Nice members, lots of kids, nice lifeguards. Weird hours (pool is never open in the morning). Poor service at the snack bar which is closed more often than open -- the customer does NOT always come first. Bring your own drinks, which is great."
