Fun in past and still today, when open that is…read more Visited on the first day of opening on 2021 and it was BUSY!! The line to get in was 15/20 min due to patrons signing up for their summer passes. When we finally were in, it looked like a normal amount of people that enjoys this pool, pre pandemic years. All patrons were not masked. Employees were not masked. Ok to be masked if comfortable. Social distancing was not enforced but most people were spaced out naturally. Lazy River line is tightly packed and water tubes are used, so there is closer contact. This aquatic center has a water playground in the center, another pool is the deeper pool with water slides, and another pool with the lazy river. Lots of entertainment for many ages! Snack bar offers snacks and drinks and shaded area to eat. Cost for admission for ages 12 and under is $6 Over 13 is $9 Unfortunately, our visit ended quickly because the kid pool closed after low visibility in the water and pH level was off. It was closed the rest of our afternoon to allow the filters to clear out the water. Overall it's a fun pool to go to, when it's open to all. There probably will be more of these kinks with visits in the future because the pandemic closed this pool in the fall 2019 till summer 2021. 4 stars for fun and options, clean and spacious, esthetically cool looking, and customer service. Lost star for management being unprepared for summer pass lines, kid pool shut down, and no refund on admission after our 30 min visit. (Obviously they had no control over the pool shut down! But I haven't seen a refund yet)

My family got season passes for Cascade Falls last summer. These passes were worth every penny,…read morebecause this place is an all-day activity that my kids never got tired of. The entire facility is kept very clean, and all of the lifeguards are super friendly. My girls both took Red Cross swimming lessons here, which added to our level of comfort with all the staff. My eldest daughter got dubbed "Junior Life Guard" on account of her tendency to literally shadow the lifeguards around the park. Every single one of the guards were so nice and patient with her, and never made her feel like she was bothering them. There is ample space to spread out, with plenty of tables, chairs, lawn area, etc. so that even when there are tons of people, there is still room to move around have plenty of personal space. The snack bar is well-stocked and fills in the gaps when picnic lunch isn't enough. All of the water slides are a good time! You can go bare, with a single or a double tube. The boogie board wave maker is super fun to hang by and watch, but not so fun to actually do if you aren't coordinated or familiar with that kind of force. Despite growing up on the beach, this thing kicked.my.butt, and more than a handful of people got to see MY butt when I totally wiped out on it. If you feel cool, try this thing out...you may just need to be taken down a notch or ten. The kids play area is laid out in such a way that parents have a clear view of the entire space, which is SO nice when you've got multiple kids to keep an eye on! I love this place and will definitely be back again this summer!

This was my first time at the pools here and I came early Sunday morning for water walking in the lazy river. I was surprised the current was on because it looked like people were mostly hopping along with the current. But after I got in, I could tell this would be a fun workout. And after I walked for about 90 minutes, my legs were like jelly getting used to land again and my back was a little sore. Fun activity to do with a friend so I will be back!

I have never had a good experience at this pool. Last summer my son was going to go off the diving…read moreboard with float things on but we were told no because they would actually drag my kid under and make him drown. IDIOTIC! Thats the complete opposite of what float things do! I asked to speak to a manager and asked where on their "pool rules" does it states that. They had no answer. I also said that we have been to other pools and jumped off the diving boards with float things on and their only response was "well sorry that's just our rule here" and my response was where does it say anything about that. Today was the WORST! Within 5 minutes of being there we got yelled at for snorkels. Not a big deal we put them away. Then, my husband got yelled at for wearing his sunglasses down the slide at age 35. Ridiculous! Then, going around the lazy river my son wanted to get out and hopped out of his tube.. instead of lifting him out of the water immediately we waited we walked to the exit and got yelled at for getting off the tube even though he was tall enough to be in the area. The worst part was my nephew jumped in to the 3ft 10in area and a lifeguard jumped in afterwards. The manage had to come scold us for doing absolutely NOTHING. We did nothing wrong. The lifeguard said she thought he was "too little" and he made her nervous so she jumped in. Funny thing was the same lifeguard DID NOT jump in nor 2 others to actually save a little boy who was struggling and I was the one to swoop in and save him. The manage had to tell me that the lifeguards are trained and that I need to trust them in which I said okay thank you I will be with my nephew and he is actually plenty tall to be in the area... she continued to preach at me in a very demeaning way. I said the matter did not need to be discussed more and walked away knowing that my nephew was in tears because of how they were treating us. Instead of respecting me she went to all her 17 year old friends and talked about me. My nephew sat for over an hour SCARED to get in the water because of how awful we were treated. We will NEVER go back and I advice you DO NOT go to Clive Aquatic Center - unless you want to get yelled at by a bunch of teenagers.

So what do you do with the kiddos when it's the 1st icky, hot weekend and start of summer break?…read moreThe pool!! The mini me convinced me to take her to the pool and we decided to hit up this pool. Super disappointed the slide was closed today but we did manage to snag a spot with easy access to shade. We got there a bit before they opened and paid the admission ($2 kid, $4 adult). Not that bad of a public pool with several shady areas by trees and canopies. One complaint I have is that the mini me was trying to do her swim test but other swimmers kept getting in the way for her to complete it. I asked the life guard if they ever clear the pool out for the swim tests, and I got a big fat No from the teenage lifeguard. So my little nugget wasthis close to accomplishing it but didn't pass the test because of another swimmer in her way. There is a snack area where they offer the usual: hot dogs, nachos, pretzels, ice cream and pizza. It looked like the pizza was from Pappa Johns ( we saw the delivery). Of course, no food near the pool area. Overall, the pool cooled us off on this hot summer day. I'm sure we will be back again.

They were extremely knowledgeable and made this experience easy from the selection process through delivery, installation, pool school and beyond. We had one issue and they took care of it immediately - better than we expected them to!

We would highly recommend Premier Pools & Spas!
