 The pool isn't large but it was comfortable and my kids loved swimming there. One thing happened that was kind of strange. A bunch of kids were playing with pool noodles.  My friend's daughter went over there to get one and the lifeguard told her no. I asked him why and he said they are for adult aerobics. I said but there's no sign on it and everyone else has them out. He said he is sorry that he's asked management to put a sign on the bin and he understands that it's confusing but those are the rules. She was upset about that and my daughter (who is almost 6) was too short for the slide so she was bummed about that. Otherwise, though it's a very nice facility.
