Took my daughter to swim today, and I was charged just to sit and watch my daughter. (9dollars) After swimming 2 laps the incompetence of the lifeguards was apparent. We had 2 wait 30 minutes & there was no communication from life lifeguards or the manager Destiny even after the first 30 minutes. I got up and walked to the front where I spoke with Christian whose' social skills are ZERO., he was more concerned about his phone than having a conversation. He informed me it was only a routine 30 break. All the while charging other community members to swim. After the first 30 minutes were up I had to engage these incompetent youth for information. I was told it would be another 30 minutes as the level was in decline. We left and attempted to speak with Christian again but His inability to have grown-up conversations and make decisions without someone holding his hand He was buried in other community members not being satisfied with how they were treated. The problem with this facility is the fact that no adults were present, the incompetence of the lifeguards in not doing the chemicals correctly and their lack of ability to communicate effectively show the style of management and thei

Weight room doesn't have a ton of machines but its really nice for the price. Front desk people are pleasant. There's a basketball gym that needs a new floor, hasn't changed since I came here in my early 20s

Love this pool, I come a couple times a week after work to do laps. I guess they're having some trouble with the chemicals keeping the pH right since this used to be an outdoor facility so if you're coming from afar you might check their facebook page or call first to see if the pool is open. If it isn't, the Thatcher pool is only about a mile away!

I hadn’t seen any new reviews of the facility since they completed their renovations, so hopefully this review is helpful to others. We visited today (a Tuesday in the summer) from around 12:30-3:30PM. We went solely for the new indoor/outdoor water area. As someone who enjoyed the old outdoor Krannert water park as a kid, the new area is definitely underwhelming. The indoor area consists of 2 large pools, one aerobics style and one sloped. The sloping pool has a double baby slide suitable for kids around 2-7. The aerobics style pool has 1 twisty slide with water going constantly and it did seem to spin kids and adults down very fast. The outdoor portion is a small splash pad, but also contains a double baby slide. However, this portion was closed today. When I asked the front desk when the outdoor splash pad would be opened, they said they didn’t have an estimate as it wasn’t working and they were unsure how much time fixing it would take. The new locker rooms are standard. The floors and toilets were dirty. The rest of the new facility looked nice. There is an outdoor area available for renting which contains AstroTurf and picnic tables. There was also a small outdoor area to

Update: Renovations were completed. The large enclosed pool is really nice. There is a water slide on the deeper side. On the shallow side are 2 straight slides into the pool for kids. My only complaint is the air conditioning is on in the dressing rooms. I was cold in there even before I got wet. When you go in there wet & you'll be freezing. // Krannert pools & building will be closed after May 1, 2022. They will be renovating. A new pool building will be built where the outdoor pool was. The old indoor pool will become a larger weight room. The inside will be closed until at least 12/31/23. The outdoors (lake, playground, picnic areas) will still be open. I don't think there will be a restroom available.
