★★★★★Judith BrusekClean, friendly staff, great local facility. Very pleased!
★★★★Ron MangasNice, clean and fun for the kids. Not in our neighborhood, but worth visiting/using, especially in Winter.
★Miaa Cfirst I wanted to say , it was nice & clean yes .. but the staff ?? 0/10 they gave my girlfriend & I wrist bands for underage .. we had no clue it’s our first time here lol we are 23+ but they should have asked for ID or something instead of assuming. Then the first 2 lanes were said to close at 4:10pm it was 45 till that time & we were asked to leave the lane because of closing .. not even 3 minutes later they allowed the lanes to be filled & we had to go to another lane :( issue after issue was happening but silent issues & as a human we can feel those things around us & I was very unsatisfied with my visit here I was overwhelmed by the stares from multiple staff .. even a woman swimming approached us in the locker room & said we shouldn’t have felt like that .. so even others around us felt the same energy. 0/10 I will not be going back here !
★★★★Des MIt’s a pretty great splash pad and will only charge you for the kid BUT if you want to take them to the big pool it’s $14 a person. $28 to go in to a pool for 2 is a bit much and would be worse if we where a bigger family so if your a traveler like me it’s a good stop for the kiddos at $7 for the splash pad only. Unless less your a resident and then it is a little cheaper.
★★★★★Yolanda TranIt was our first time here for a birthday party. We have a wild 14 month toddler that loves to run around and I’m impressed how toddler friendly the splash pad is! There is also a heated pool next to it that is great! The place is clean and accommodating to families as well. We will be coming back and we definitely recommend!!
