No waiting in the hot sun for long periods of time! There's lots of shade around the edge of the pool. The grass is nice. I recommend bringing a chair because there are a lot of ants & tiny spiders running around. We all loved the two water slides. The lines don't get very long at all. There's a cute wading pool perfect for babies. It's pretty warm. The lifeguards are very attentive & nice. Overall this is a perfect place to bring the family on a hot summer day. We like to pack a lunch or some snacks whenever we go.

Update July 17, 2018:…read more I came swimming with my kids and friends. As a former lifeguard and pool manager I'm always assessing the lifeguards and staff. Thanks to their attentiveness a guard was able to swiftly pull a toddler that had wandered into the pool, out of the busy pool before anything tragic happened. I was impressed with how quickly all the lifeguards responded. The guards all knew their role and responded appropriately. Someone came out with presumably an incident report, other guards immediately rushed in over to assist (if needed) and the guards on duty all rose to continue monitoring the whole pool, while the lifeguard that performed the rescue was away from the stand. I observed throughout the day and thought the guards were attentive and on top of their game! Awesome save today, and good job guards!

And like all facilities, maintenance and renovations could be made accordingly to enhance the customer/member experience! However, after visiting and being treated so very well by upper management/supervision... it's this line staff who is just not up to par. The reception/front desk seriously has areas for improvement! As, they require coaching on how they speak, use facial expressions, and overall usage their body language to interact. Who are you to police and act poorly, roll eyes, and talk disparagingly about the customer when they walk away? Further far too much chit chat at the front desk, where is the busy work and checklists? Unfortunately, it's the ladies working from 4:00pm til closing at the front desk who have these attitudes. Really not acceptable! Call out if you are in a bad mood! Also management, if you have different hours i.e. your summer and winter hours, your line staff, front desk "concierge"should be advising this politely and always ready to greet the customer or member with warmth and respect. Not, "appeared bothered or annoyed " to have to do their job they receive a paycheck for!

While technically this is called the Ventana Ranch Pool & Community Center, it's really just the…read moreVentana Ranch Pool. The "community center" isn't actually a community center at all. It's only accessible from the pool area, and is really just a small building built big enough to house the locker rooms, hold what little equipment the pool monitors might need, and store pool toys the kids that come here can use while they're swimming. Oh, and it serves as a space to use for the (monthly/quarterly?) homeowners association meetings. The pool itself isn't very large, probably about 3/4 the size of your typical public pool, but since it's only for Ventana Ranch residents, it never gets super busy, and one typically has plenty of room to swim and hang out in. It's clean, and relatively well maintained, but the water is so cold that, from my viewpoint, it's virtually unusable for more than a few minutes at a time, even on the hottest of summer days. Now, given that the average day finds plenty of people (mostly kids) in the pool swimming around, obviously not everyone feels the same way, but consider this my swimmer beware sort of review, and get out of it what you will. :-) I actually find the water temperature to be a bit of a mystery, because while it was super cold like this the few times we came here last summer (2013), there were also a few times we were here earlier this summer (2014), and the water temp was perfect then. There was even a time when we came to swim this year, and the water was (almost) *too* warm. However, of all the times we've been here, the water has been cold far more than it's been warm. The locker rooms are small, and a little stinky, but clean, and more than adequate for the size of the pool and the number of swimmers generally present. I suspect the smell is largely due to the smallness of the space, and the fact that the locker rooms are basically outside. There's a kiddie pool fenced off in a small enclosed area separate from the rest of the pool, and even though the main pool is very big, or busy, it's nice for parents of small children to have a dedicated space they can take their kiddos to if they want to. There are no diving boards, water slides, or any of that other fancy schmancy pool stuff, but there are plenty of chairs, a few tables, and even a nice grassy area with a couple good sized trees providing lots of shade right outside the gate, just in front of the pool. This makes the grass the perfect place for having a picnic lunch with the fam before, after, or even during your swim session. The pool is free to use, but as I mentioned above, it's for VR residents only, and you need a key/swipe card to get in the gate (obtained by going to the office for the the property mgmt co, and showing them an ID, and some sort of other proof of VR residency). Overall, I'd probably give the VR Pool 3.5 stars, but since Yelp won't let me go in .5 star increments, I feel like it deserves rounding up to 4 stars more than it does rounding down to 3. If you live in VR, the pool is a nice (free!) summer perk to have. If you don't live out here, well, maybe you should! :-)
