A perfect public summer time outdoor pool! Seven different sections! Multiple diving boards, super high concrete diving pad, a fun drop-off slide, a relaxing twisty slide that you can slide with your babe in your lap! And the kid pool with fun water features spraying the air and some are controllable with steering wheels! Another small pool area is just for toddlers. They can walk about and fall and not get their face dunked. Perfect!
And then there is a whole other pool that is only 3.5 feet deep which was perfect for my almost swimmer child. She felt so confident paddling about but could confidently stand up everywhere in the pool! It was a great place to build up her swimming skills!
There is plenty of space, green lawn for laying out your towels or blankets, lots of chairs for lounging or sitting, and a great snack bar with ice cream, shaved ice, and other snacky foods but also freshly grilled hamburgers or BLTs! Delicious! Reasonably priced.
And best of all, the staff is so friendly! Lots of teenagers and young adults learning how to be great citizens by keeping a watchful eye on the young kids and adults, too. I felt very safe, I felt my children were safe playing and swimming everywhere!
Head to Amazon Pool for a swim time. You will...

Shakespeare in the park once a year. excellent area to take children and have picnics bike riding walks. Huge jogging trails. You may also bring your dogs but take bags with you and be responsible clean up their mess. No kids? Then there is also a dog Park. The skate board park also is highly recommended. There's a large swimming POOL with slides and lifeguards. lots of shade quite safe but always be Aware of others... valuables... and most importantly your children. The park saved my family from a lot of boring summer days as well as my sanity. go relax and watch the kids have fun. don't forget the picnic lunch. Lots of parking as you get a little further from the swimming pool. One of Eugene's simple Treasures. Only the swimming pool charges a small fee to enter open at night too. Warning once the kids go they're going to want to keep going.!!! Bring your wagon or stroller for easy transport of stuff and kids to cover more area and get them back to the car once they are pooped out. Or maybe they can tow you...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis park is so awesome! Lots of parking, public restrooms. Sometimes thereās even an ice cream truck. I really appreciate that the ground is made of that āspringyā rubber, rather than bark a mulch, so that I donāt have to worry about used needles hiding in the play ground area. Also, bark a mulch all up in your shoes is never fun! ANND your risk of stepping in gum is a lot less likely as well. In fact, we went to Emerald park the very next day and someone from our group DID end up stepping in a huge wad of gum, that someone had spit out in the bark a mulch right by the swings! Anyway, this play structure is a bit big with the kiddos! Itās got several types of swings, a few different types of slides, and lots and lots or rubbing and climbing space! There are penny of benches and picnic tables, several of which are wheel chair accessible, which i think is amazing. There is also plenty of grassy area that is perfect if you wanted to sprawl out in the grass while your...
