Johnson Pool

My review pertains to swim lessons only. If you like smaller settings for your child’s swim lessons, come here or give it a drive-​by … On numerous occasions I have had smaller if not 1-​to-​1, swim lessons for my children. I can’t even compare the experience here to the RAC because it’s much more intimate here. I am referring to the little ones, not the big kids. Sure it’s an older pool on the older side of Roseville, so I know that’s the first deterrent for a few «newbies /​snobberellis.» If you need a cutsie place to go to, I suppose you will be turned off by the place (and indeed go to the RAC or Central Pool) ~ RE: Shade I am not sure what others are talking about … because there is plenty of covered seating for how small the place is … it’s no more a cement sun garden than the other place. I have jousted for shade space at the RAC as well. There are no fancy slides, nor olympic size pool, nor zero depth walk-​in here (which is indeed awesome at the RAC) but I am here for lessons and it feels less chaotic here when talking about swimming lessons for the little ones. Central park is awesome for poor weather swim lessons and lessons period (what a GORGEOUS place, but it does get really loud) :-) We have done swim lessons at all three locations and they reacted much more confidently at this location. I am not saying you will think it’s pretty, but it’s what works for us. I wouldn’t come here on a family-​open-​swim night. It’s too small. Major chaos.

Johnson Pool will open for the summer beginning Monday, June 29^th.
The web address says it all. It is missing the fact that there isn’t a lot of shade if you want to stand and watch your children. There is some shade over the bleachers though.
I suggest going to the Roseville Aquatics Center instead (some shade in the back by the deep end of the pool).
