Nice large pool in a quiet setting. Well-maintained with lifeguards changing shifts approximately every hour. Four lap lanes, a recreational swim area, and a deep section where diving is allowed. Took my granddaughter last WED. When we first arrived at 12:30 ish, there were less than 10 people in the pool. More people arrived as the day continued yet it never got super-crowded. There are two areas for groups with huge umbrellas and lots of chairs. There are also several small umbrella tables with chairs, also chaise lounges. Can't say much about the locker area - we only used the bathroom (adequate).

Our favorite Raleigh Rec outdoor pool! We love that the splash pad is in the same fenced area as the toddler pool and they provide plenty of toys for the kids. Plenty of seating and lounge chairs even on a busy day. Shaded seating as well. Kids can wear their own version of a flotation device and infant floats are allowed without reprimand. The showers are a bit sad but clean. Overall it's definitely our go to pool in the summer!

Great pool. Me and my grandma had to pay $6 to get in. Don’t let the price deter you though because it is a great pool. There are lanes, a deep end, and lots of room. There is also a splash pad for kids. I counted a total of 14 lounge chairs. Overall a great pool.
