AI summary of 4 Google reviews — not a first-hand visit. How we write these

One reviewer was turned away for bringing three children with only one adult, and describes recreational swim sold in short blocks, so confirm the supervision rules before driving over. Other reviewers call the pools well kept and rarely crowded, handy after the loop trails nearby.

This nonprofit aquatics center opened in 1990 in Brookside Park just south of the Rose Bowl, with two Olympic-size pools (up to 17 feet deep) and two diving boards drawing more than 400,000 visitors a year. Family Recreation Swim sessions make it an easy, reliable hot-day outing for all ages.

    Amazing public pools in such a great location! At the far south end of the Rose Bowl Stadium parking lot, there’s two large pools and one small one. I’ve been here twice, having had an uncrowded and enjoyable time on both occasions. The pools are well maintained and while popular with a full parking lot, there still seems to be adequate space to swim! Great after taking in the local loop trails, especially in warmer weather! While in the area, kids may also enjoy going to the Pirate Park. The whole family may partake as well at the nearby Brookside Park.
