I'm happy they take the health of the staff, the parents, and the kiddos so seriously. I signed my infant son up for classes here when he turned 4 months. I signed him up because I want him to be water safe. After all we live in the land of 10,000 lakes. The mini 1 class focuses exactly on what I was hoping he would learn. The lessons focus on the basic movements of swimming, but also on building in safe instincts around water. He is learning, for example, that if he falls in he should swim to the wall. The one thing that sometimes gets a little old is that the routine each class doesn't change. It is great for the teachers because anyone can pick up their curriculum and do it. It is also great for the kiddos because it is creating that muscle memory around water safety. It just can get a little repetitive for me. It is worth it though when I see my son giggling and splashing in the water. What I really love about this place is that it is geared with kids in mind. The pool is heated to a very comfortable temperature. There are changing room pods, so no having to change in front of strangers. The staff are all super positive and kid focused. I worked at a day camp for many years, and the instructors here remind me so much of the swim staff I used to work with. Even during the pandemic I still feel very safe coming here. Lesson sizes are controlled. Changing rooms are cleaned after each use. Everyone is wearing a mask. Traffic flow is controlled in and out of the building. This is definitely a more pricey option for swim lessons, but I think the cost is worth it for that super kid focused experience.

Great swim instructors that are very patient and knowledgeable. Safety is a priority here.read more

Dear Municipal Pool,…read more Thank you. I love you. See you next year. XOXO, Katherine B What is it that you want from your public pool? I want a fairly cheap entry fee and lots of seating and a decent sized pool. That's all. Highland has this, and more! Parking, shade, a decent bathroom and concessions. You can bring your own food in. Plenty of space for the little ones to play in the two small pools/splash pads. A good diving board for the bigger kids. (The drop slides aren't really drop slides per se, and they are best for shorter kids) A big water slide...that's truly only ok but who cares. A HUGE POOL. With a HUGE DEEP END. No lifejackets in the deep end, and still a large area where your tweens+ can easily touch. Bring a pool friendly throwing item. (no nerf, just light weight stuff that won't hurt if you get bonked. The lifeguards will tell you)

Only $8 for adults and kids under 2 years old are free! There is a couple mandatory 25 min breaks, but it's a good time to grab a bite to eat. The splash pad stays open if you get too hot or for it the little ones that can't sit still for very long! (Like my son lol). Come early if you want a foldable chair for sun bathing, the place fills up very quick, but there's always usually some room in the back grassy area for you to lay down a towel and cozy up with a good book. If you get hungry, run to the snack bar and they've got multiple options for hot dog toppings and even a meal deal with chips and a drink! The staff are always so kind and they also have life jacket rentals for FREE! (with admission) We will absolutely be spending more hot summer days here!

We've had a kid in the summer swim sessions (there are three sessions a summer) the past three years. I love it because the teachers are great (I assume they are St. Kate's swim team members), its well organized, the facilities are nice, and the kids learn a ton because they go every day for 2 or 3 weeks rather than once a week for eight to ten weeks, which is what most swim lessons are like. It seems like the learning is stronger with the every day method. I've continued to be extremely pleased with the program, and plan to continue to have a kid as a participant for many summers to come!

Bamboo Bay is much louder than the main pool area due to the fact it's more enclosed and there are sprayers with lots of water all over. The lifeguards do a great job of keeping their eyes on the kiddos cause it can get very very packed in both pool areas and kids of all different ages including adults too! The bathrooms and lockers are great and all facilities are pretty new and kept clean. I do love the spinner to spin clothes after swim time... As a side note, if you're like me and just hung out with other parents while the kiddos swam...it can get very very hot and humid so dress accordingly even in the winter time!

The owner did a big renovation several years ago. Since much of the labor was performed by employees, construction was a drawn-out affair. Maintenance has declined. Locker rooms aren't as clean as they used to be and the pool is perpetually cloudy. I always shower well afterwards and use the club towel to stand on because the carpeted floor grosses me out. My first review for this place was 4 or 5 stars but I've had to downgrade because of the cleanliness and maintenance issues. The club has a 25 yard indoor pool and a smaller outdoor pool that's open during warm weather. I'm a lap swimmer, and there are usually lap lanes available very early morning, midday, and at night. However, in the summer the club offers swimming lessons for children and there are large blocks of time that adult lap swimmers can't get in. Front desk staff will helpfully suggest using the outdoor pool, but it's so short that by the time you push off one end, you're practically hitting your head on the other end. Most group fitness classes are free. Quality of instruction varies, try out a few to see if you like the instructor or not. Offerings include yoga, step, sculpt & strength, Zumba, kettlebells, kickboxing, spinning, and others. There's a decent child care area, a real boon to parents of youngsters who need to get out and sweat! Prices are about average, and you can often avoid an initiation fee by signing up for a one-year commitment.
