Great pool! Love the seperate kiddy pool and the lazy river! (Also love that we dont get blasted…read morewith music at this pool, thankyou!)

This review is specific to the pool area…read more Honestly, this pool is probably the best public pool in the area. It was recently renovated, and it is clean and modern and expansive. There are multiple swimming areas available for use. There is a lap lane, a diving well, a lazy river, an aqua jogging area, two water slides, a few areas for general swimming activities, a handful of water bikes, and a kiddie pool. There are also lots of lifeguards sitting in raised chairs, as well as actively patrolling the edge of the pool deck. Though there is plenty of seating around the pool deck, the lounge chairs aren't particularly comfortable or stable. The chairs have those rubber slats across the length of the chair that make it uncomfortable to sit on without a towel underneath you. However, you are allowed to bring in your own chairs if you'd prefer that. The kiddie pool is a really great space for parents to watch their children. It is completely fenced in with a zero-depth end and a small slide with a fountain. The gate clicks closed behind you when you enter, so kids can't just push right through and go to the main pool. There are umbrellas and lounge chairs around the kiddie pool as well. I also counted five family restrooms, which is a good amount considering the large capacity of the pool. The locker rooms themselves are very spacious and clean. The individual showers have curtains, which provides lots of privacy. There is also a swimsuit dryer inside the locker room. There is a snack shack around the side of the building and there are water fountains (one with a water bottle filler) inside near the locker rooms. Something unique about Buchner Pool is the activities they offer members in the mornings. From 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., the current channel (where the lazy river is) can be used for water walking. Additionally, lap swimming is available between 9:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. One thing to be aware of is the lack of parking. There is no parking lot attached to the park, so you have to park on the street. There are four handicap parking spaces near the building. On particularly hot days, there will be a line to get into the pool. Sometimes the employees divide the line into a queue for people with a membership and a queue for people paying in cash for a daily pass, but don't count on it.

There are kiddy pools for the children, and other aquatic activities for them. One day admission is only $10 for nonresident, and $8 for residents. Season passes are also available.

Kind of reminds me of the set up in Elmhurst, IL. Skate Park, Pool, Waterpark-ish area. Another skate park I dropped my "big kid" off, but I actually ended up staying. Nice clean park, and nice area to park under a tree and read a book which is exactly what I did while waiting for J to get done skating. Very nice!

The zero depth entry was nice and there were lots water features for younger kids (small slide, water umbrella and little fountains, a seesaw in the pool). My 9 year old enjoyed the larger water slides and deeper part of the pool. There were plenty of lifeguards on duty. Really, we had a great time playing as a family. Admission was super cheap. We paid $12 for a family of 4. This may have been because we didn't arrive until 5.

They also have a great little sand pit for kids to play in when they get tired of swimming. Only complaint is the snack bar could offer a larger variety of foods. Also wish they had a longer season as they close in August. Im sure that is because most of their lifeguards head back to college then.

The center was clean from the inside lockers to the pool area. I think the biggest complaint is that it was very crowded, but it was a really hot 90-degree day, so I get it. It's worth a visit.

Apparently, they are now prioritizing season pass holders over general pass holders. It was posted in small print when purchasing the tickets online.

They do have a nice shallow area for little kids which starts at zero depth. The slides are nice, but 2 are in the deep end, which sometimes closes. In addition, there are occasional safety breaks, which only last for 15 minutes, where it is adult swim only. As an adult, I like it, but of course the kids do not.

It was $12 each for non-residents and the children and adults we're friendly and welcoming . The bathroom facilities were ok hence the 4 instead of 5 stars .

I did see parents bring in snacks , however we opted for dinner at nearby Bahama Breeze.
