They do take ~10 minutes to clean the water (water is turned off) so we ate our lunch while waiting. So my kids had full bellies and fun in the water. Only negative is there are no changing rooms. So you either change in the restroom stall or you go home wet. Lifeguards are supervising but please still watch your kids. Specifically the older ones who are playing roughly with each other and end up slamming into little kids. Tickets are purchased online through the City of Santa Clarita website.

One of the best things is that you're allowed to bring your own food and drinks, which makes it easy and affordable for families to spend the day. The kids had an amazing time, and we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a fun and family-friendly place to beat the heat!

Like most community pools, it's in a beautiful neighborhood of Burbank and has some playgrounds and tennis courts near the pool. The locker rooms are kept up really well and the pool's temperature is kept at just the right level of cold and the chlorine level doesn't feel drastic as some places. The staff are great and helpful. The day rate depends on if you live in Burbank or not ($6-8) for lap swim and keep their schedule updated on their website. Bring your own swim gear as they are not provided by the aquatic center! Depending on time of day and when you go, the lap swim can be metered or by yards, as the layout of the pool can change (with kids swim, open swim, aerobics) nearby. Theres also a nice outdoor area for family events or kids birthday parties. Theres street side parking and they have a good size parking lot but it's pretty busy on weekends; people leave frequently and usually are waiting for your parking spot when you head out! A local who has been coming here for years encouraged me to try Mccambridge Recreation Pool (which I have yet to)!

They host multiple events, especially during the summer. Like movies at the pool, which is fantastic here; a 4th of July drone show; and the very disappointing FIFA fan zone that was held here. (That's a separate review.) But over all the aquatic center is a fun and great day to spend a pool day with the kids. There's plenty of parking, and they do charge a couple bucks to get in; however, on most events it tends to be free to enter. Today I am here for the 3rd-place World Cup game, and it was free to attend. Kids get to play in the pool, and I get to watch the game. Is a win-win Love this spot.

Review: I honestly…read moreloved this place For only $4, I didn't expect such a huge and well-maintained aquatic center. Everything feels spacious, clean, and super family-friendly. What I liked most is that it's not just a regular pool -- you can spend the whole day here relaxing, doing activities, having a picnic, or just enjoying the summer atmosphere. The obstacle course and water activities make it really fun, and the shaded lounge areas are perfect if you want to relax out of the sun. Huge plus for the free parking, showers, restrooms, and food truck nearby. Definitely one of the best affordable summer spots in Los Angeles

The check-in process is always quick and organized, and every staff member we've interacted with has been friendly, patient, and helpful. The first time we visited, we bought the two-hour passes, but we quickly realized that wasn't nearly enough time. There are so many different obstacles to explore, and the kids never want to leave. Since then, we've always gone with the all-day passes, they're definitely worth it because you can take breaks and still enjoy everything the park has to offer. Such a fun place for families, and we always leave with great memories. We'll definitely be back again!

But that was 100% my own fault so flash forward to today when we went again and brought a bunch a friends with their kids. I called yesterday bc I noticed 18 month olds Fridays with sand buckets and shovels with their mother or father right next to them right next to the waterline being told to move and that they couldn't touch the water at all so I thought to myself, I better call because I can barely walk after Friday's adventure so I figured I would ask (before inviting a bunch of people) if I would be able to dunk in the water when I got really hot and come right back out obviously no swimming that is the main rule or even just sit in an inch of water and I was reassured that that would be fine however, there was no swimming, which is totally understandable. The first hour we were there another mother and I sat in about an inch of water, not floating, not swimming. The back of our legs were basically covered in water as we set up. One of the sweet lifeguards even stepped over us a couple times and was like oh sorry ladies. Hope you're having a good day. Very nice kid. Then the people to the left of us decided to put beach chairs in the water like up to their chest, not like a stick your feet in situation. A different lifeguard then came up and told my friend and I had to move and did not say one word to the people in the chairs fully in the water. Also mind you there are kids swimming where you are not supposed to be swimming and the lifeguards are fully seeing it. And it was like there just getting from point a to be like they are fully swimming floating There are other people getting in and out fully in and out multiple times floating around and lifeguards do not say a word. One of them even had an inflatable doughnut and was just right in the middle of the area you're not supposed to be in for a good 30 minutes. No one said a word. My problem with this is, if you're going to have a rule make it apply to everybody or even better yet staff more lifeguards because I know they can definitely afford it with the prices they charge so that people that are unable to do The obstacle course don't die of heat stroke. Even multiple lifeguards said this was their biggest issue this summer and they even agreed with people being able to go into the water, especially when it's that hot out so even they know that rule is not a good one. And the saddest part of this is someone's two year-old managed to swim out to the obstacle course almost drowning, right in front of the lifeguards. At first, I thought Will maybe they were too busy telling people they couldn't put their feet in to notice that a kid was about to drowned but then I looked to my left, and they were all standing on the lifeguard tower with a straight eye line to this poor little kid. Thank goodness, there was an adult nearby that saw and was able to jump in. This place could be really cool if you were able to enjoy the water along with the obstacle course. There is also a swimming area, but it is not near the obstacle course so you would need to choose between your kid having an amazing time and you dying a slow death on the beach or just going to the swimming part no course. Also the beach is literally covered in trash , the amount of trash I picked out of the water and off the beach was absolutely horrific. It was the same Friday.
