Very spacious and clean pools. About 50-100 tanning lounge chairs to choose from. Very attentive lifeguards. Snack bar is available as well. A diving pool, Olympic pool, swimming lanes, adult section, and various feet of water to swim in. This is all included when you pay the one time fee for the day. So sad I only learned about them towards the end of the summer! They close on Labor Day. Will definitely make it a staple to come back next summer.

She says they've got some RIDICULOUSLY cheap rates for town residents ($7 for a summer pass... Is that possible??!?) and only charge $20 more for a certain number (6?) guest passes!! Old school pool, just one slightly swirly slide, not a whole bunch of "wanna be/pseudo water park" attractions... Perfect!! I think the locker rooms could use a bit of an overhaul, but heck, you're here for the water, and it was GREAT this end-of-season Labor Day weekend. This place has convenient hours (it's open until 7:45 pm on weekdays!!) along with plenty of sunny and shady sections, lots of chairs, and the coolest, most awesome "umbrella tree" (you've just gotta see it!!) Compare that to our "fancy pants" wanna-be waterpark pools in Ohioooooooooo that have ridiculously limited hours and close for the season mid August!! Boooo!!! I'd be here every day if I lived in the area!! Very family friendly (free kiddie swimming lessons??!?) and the best deal you'll find in often over-priced LI!! Lucky Mineola!!

It was great, they would have their fill of fun and then we could go home and rest. Now years later my wife and I joined the newly renovated pool with all new lounge chairs, locker and rest rooms and a new kiddie pool with a slide. It is a huge improvement. It was ok before and now it is so much better. We came here quite a bit this year and really enjoyed it. There is no food allowed by the pool area but they have a snack stand with tables and benches where you can either purchase food or bring your own. We had a very nice time this season and will join again next. They also have other amenities at the park such as tennis and a meeting room.

Very nice pool! Quiet, clean, all locals! They have 3 pools. A very large pool for everyone. A…read moresmaller pool for diving, 2 diving boards. They also have a small children's pool for just the little ones. There are ample lifeguards and they are very diligent. They are definitely watching, making sure everyone is safe and following the rules, are they are actually nice using words like buddy and dear to speak to the children. They have 2 nice locker rooms for males and females, showers, changing rooms. They also have a small con-session stand with food, drinks, candy, and ice cream. Right outside the pool area is a playground for the children. They have two overhangs inside the pool area for the people that prefer to sit in the shade. Come on down and enjoy a swim!

There are a few picnic tables and grills on the lawn. No pool lounge chairs or towel service so bring your own chairs, picnic blankets, food/snacks and other accoutrements to enjoy a leisurely summer day. Facilities are clean and well-maintained. Very kids/toddler-friendly. The sizeable shallow end has several sprinklers/splash fountains for children to play in, and there are slides on both the kiddie and adult sides. Also a playground in the back (not affiliated with the pool). There are always many life guards on duty every time I've gone. The pool is accessible only to Clarkstown residents and their guests, so if you're not a resident befriend someone who is. You must obtain a Clarkstown resident ID card first at the registration office at 31 Zukor Road in New City. (The pool won't simply accept a driver's license.) Rates can be either daily or seasonal for individuals or family, and are very reasonable compared to similar community pools.

It's no exaggeration that these monsters from the deep probably kept a legion of child psychiatrists in full time employment. On a recent visit it was nice to see that the previous snake-ridden den of iniquity has long been been replaced with a legitimate pool and that the mythological beasts of years past have been slayed by chlorine and actual cement walls. You can even see right to the bottom. What a concept. This is what Nanuet Lake should have been like all along... no thanks whatsoever to my parents who thought this was some tough love version of Shangri La, albeit minus the all consuming bliss one often finds in paradise. I kid about my parents (almost) and am happy to bestow five easy stars for a childhood reclaimed. I still hate snakes.

It has a fake little sand/beach area. Over looks Manhattan, there is also a wrist band needed for every 45min shift. For 15 mins each hour the pool is tested. And only a certain amount of people are let into the pool at one time. This is the most awesome public pool in NYC!

Three pools all together, two kiddie pools and a large one for older kids and adults with chambers for distance swimming and an area for diving with two diving boards. Lots of lifeguards on duty and lots of chairs and lounge chairs in both the sun and shade. There is also a lazy river, very cool. They even have several different size tubes and two seater tubes. There are games (large human sized chess game) and noodles for pool use (that must be checked out at front desk). There is a snack bar in the pool area that has chips, soda, ice cream, stuff like that no real food. Next to the pool is an ice skating rink (during winter) and during the summer there are games going on on the rink like basketball and ping pong. Both the pool and rink have bathrooms and locker rooms. Great place!
