My kiddos & I were invited to a birthday pool party at the Del Norte Aquatic Facility yesterday (July 9, 2026).
There was ample parking.
As soon as we walked through the gates, we were asked if we were there for the birthday girl. No fee was charged.
We were impressed with how large this facility was.
The outdoor pool water was very warm if you weren't near the baby pool that had the tall bucket fountain dumping water or the other tall fountain.
My restraint of a 5th star:
- women's restrooms were not clean. Everything including the bathroom stall walls need to be wiped down!
- litter was scattered throughout the gated grounds
- at one point we were very confused as to why one of the young male lifeguards was blowing his whistle incessantly at his female counterpart who was talking to an individual embarking her way up the slide stairs.
My oldest loved the large yellow enclosed slide more than the slightly smaller white slide, but she & her younger sister went down both of them multiple times.
Available on the premises... Many lounge chairs. Some picnic tables. Some canopies and trees. There was also an unkempt sand pit just beyond the large pavilion. Lockers. Restrooms. Showers.
The facility is available for party rentals. Plus swimming lessons are offered here. Both fill up extremely fast. read more
