The Wilson Aquatic Center provided an enjoyable experience. My family and I had a positive time, particularly appreciating the swimming lessons.

★★★★★Ken Oki

Awesome facilities with one of the best public pools I've visited, and I had a great experience swimming here. Not among the sites people think about visiting in our nation's capital, but I'll plan on dropping in anytime I have to be in D.C.

I went to this swimming facility last weekend and overall it was a pretty good experience. The pool was clean and well maintained, and there was enough space even though it wasn’t super crowded. The lifeguards seemed attentive, which made me feel safe while swimming. I liked that they had a small area for kids too, so families could enjoy without worrying. The changing rooms were decent, not fancy but clean enough. Prices were reasonable for the area. I’d probably come back again if I’m in the neighborhood, especially for a casual swim or just to relax by the pool.

Don't try calling the pool, they don't answer. And it's impossible to figure out whether the pool and/or hot tub is open because it's not listed on their website (why be practical and polite if you can disregard the people who pay your salary? The last time we used the pool, the hot tub jets were not working, the shower was cold - the usual. You REALLY have to arm yourself with patience when you try to use the facilities. Otherwise, stay home. At least you won't have driven all the way there for nothing.
