Almaden Oaks Community Center

I have been going to Almaden Oaks since I was a child and it’s a wonderful neighborhood pool. I know live in the neighborhood and my kids have enjoyed it for years. The price is very reasonable for a summer, if anyone pays for summer camps you can spend $ 500 for a week. This is around $ 500 for the summer. 12pm to 8pm daily. They offer swim lessons too. The pool has recently had the bathrooms remodeled and the pool has new tile, resurfaced and new coping. The grounds around the pool have new landscaping and new grass. They also have family bbqs and kids days. The person that posted a bad review is just upset she/​he thought it was a public pool and didn’t get in. How can she/​he make a bad review when they didn’t actually use the pool or go in. Our family has greatly found this neighborhood pool to be a great summer place when temps get hot.

This is NOT a «community» pool nor public pool. The pool itself is 10 ft by ft — very tiny, and there are very unfriendly people. The place is a horrible dump! I did call the pools president Dan and also Darren. Darren said they are a «country club» and a membership here costs $ 500 per year. Puhlease!!! I wouldn’t pay a dollar for it. Never seen anything like it., more like a condo pool not even a jacuzzi and very dirty. TOTAL DUMP

I hadn’t been here since I was in about 5^th grade so my family had got tired of sitting in the sweltering heat every summer and decided to get a membership. You can bring guests in for 4 dollars and have them sign a waiver for being over 18, so I brought my boyfriend with me and this was the first time going with my family’s membership, we’re both 18 and it came time for adult swim, all the children got out of the pool and the two of us stayed in along with two other mothers. The 15 year old or so lifeguards looked at us funny for staying in and kinda expected us to get out, and when we had kept swimming they asked us to get out. We told them «we ARE adults. We’re 18» and he said «oh sorry» then we continued to swim. After a few minutes he came back ASKING US FOR I.D. So we had to get out, dry off, go through all of our belongings just to look for our I. D’s, only because we look younger than we are which I thought was completely rotten When asked for a reasoning behind this he had stated «it’s procedure», okay, then can you tell me why you didn’t ask for the I. D’s of the mothers in the pool? So since we were so insulted we decided to leave, but as the lifeguard walked away my boyfriend noticed the «no lifeguard on duty» sign said «no one under 14 allowed». Not 18, 14. So my boyfriend said «okay then why does it say 14 and older?» So the lifeguard continued to walk ignoring what he had said. My boyfriend then went into the bathroom to wash off so we can leave, while he was in there the lifeguard had taken the sign and put duct tape over 18 and put «14». Then when as we were exiting they said «have a nice day» we said nothing back to them mad as could be we had to get out of the pool just cause we didn’t look our age, and then said «ok, BYE!» and kept LAUGHING AT US WHILE WE WERE WALKING AWAY. Getting out for a stupid I. D completely ruined it, like why get back in if I had to completely dry off just to get out for it? They were completely rude about the situation and biased on our appearance. Not to mention the pools dirty and all the plants are dead. the grounds just look unkept. not worth the 150 dollars

This facility is a nice little gem that not many people know about.
I was introduced a few weeks ago when a friend had a birthday party for her son there.
The facility boasts a decent sized pool (40 X 15 my estimate). Pleanty of room to sunbathe and a smaller section of the pool that is reserved for toddlers.
When we went there were foiur lifeguards on duty and watching the pool.
They have preset breaks for the kids to get out of the pool and rest and the adults can dive in without all of the carpet commandos (kids) attacking you.
There is also a seperate grassed in play area — patio where you can have parties with two BBQ’s.
If I didn’t have a pool in my back yard I would certainly pay to be a member.
