Funny I was actually working at Hamilton Fish Pool the season was coming to an end. Not only cause I work there put its a beautiful park in the summer and the pool is maintained well. As always like other places issues happen like water becoming contaminated FPOs are ready to take care of it good at what they do. We are always in the top five pools. The squash court is being used alot. Seasonal workers been there for quite a few years. I myself have been working there for few years. Our regulars know us on first name bases. Stop by in the summer check it out.
Beautiful pool. Too bad it’s being gatekept with terrible rules. They won’t let you in if you’re wearing any clothing you don’t plan on wearing in the pool, you can’t wear a goggle mask, and now they introduced a new rule where you need a bracelet for entry. Too bad we got there as soon as they ran out of bracelets… 2 hours before the pool closes.Seriously: ENOUGH RULES LET US IN THE POOL!

2021-07-07An amazing pool with dedicated staff, very clean entrance and a very great choice for those look lovers. It also has a basketball court, handball court for those that dont see themselves enjoying the freshness of the pool

2019-08-17A maddening taste of Soviet-style rules, regulations and customer service in an otherwise excellent establishment.Example: pool closes from 4 to 5pm for a lifeguard break (thats fine) but staff inexplicably screams bloody murder to get out at 3:45 and then locks the bathrooms leaving tons of people very hot and/or bothered. And its not like the place was short-staffed.But the pool is nice when youre allowed in.

2021-09-12The staff at this pool is one of the nicest staffs Ive ever met. Everyone is so friendly. It made my daily swim this summer my favorite part of the day. The pool is clean, and not over crowded. I will miss going, and I cant wait to return next summer!

2021-07-11Its a very nice and clean pool staff is also very nice,Only thing is they are very strict you can not bring ur phones or anything to the pool therefore you wont be able to take pictures and stuff. They will make sure you dont have anything they wont allow they will shake your towels and have you do extra stuff before entering. Also the lockers arent on the inside its on the outside in the park area and they are ant infested big time when I came out the pool and went to my locker there was so many ants all over my stuff I didnt have food in there or anything to drink it was just so bad I was shocked at the amount of ants.Other than that the place is nice and clean for free at that.

2021-07-23The pool is large and very clean, theres a kiddie pool as well with lifeguards watching, water parks all around the pool area, the locker rooms are outside😟but closed off for privacy, theres places to rest and eat if desired.

2020-08-19We to Hamilton fish pool yesterday with two friends it was so pleasant very clean super spacious pleanty of loungers to sit in the only problem is its a hike to the bathrooms. Locker room is clean, small but very clean. I went first thing in the morning 11 am. No long lines just wonderful. I swam for 1hour and a half sat in lounger chated with friends then left. Perfect day.

2019-07-13Not one pool, but two, and its great because the smaller pool is 2 feet, 6 inches deep, which lets younger kids who know how to swim a bit, but maybe arent strong enough yet to hang in the 3-foot-6 pool, really get stronger at swimming while still having the ability to put their feet down anytime. And then of course they can bounce and play water games. The changing area is small but private enough, and the staff was very helpful all around.
