Mingus Park Pool — Local services in Coos Bay

Im not sure if my experience is the norm and it's very disappointing that this is what I have to offer as my first impression: off the bat the young girl at the counter was sweet and friendly no problems in the locker room, love hot showers, once in the pool there were a group of school age "big boys" who constantly picked on other swimmers bodies especially the girl's bodies, they really crossed the line with rascist and homophobic remarks towards other swimmers, the only time the lifeguard moved was to change staff and tell people to move away from the slide, additionally during public swim they had 2 lanes set up and open instead of encourage lap swim and free swim the attitude was "lap swim is over" ok, take down the lanes then instead of leaving us guessing, I left early at this point, in the locker room there was some kids fiddling with the door to the locker room, throwing things at it, playing games with there friends who had just come through, some kind of commotion, after that the "receptionist" had some friends back there with her and at one point I was gonna step in when I heard crying but I guess it was mock crying, The only reason it's getting 3 stars is cause I did get to swim, there were hot showers, it was cheap, and it's by that beautiful park. Staff should work on supervision BIG TIME and not tolerate hate speech...

This park was such a great way to be outside and enjoy the fresh air. The pathways and trails are clean and cleared to make for easy walking. It offers the feel of seclusion and the “great” outdoors while being right in the middle of the city. It was also much larger than it seemed at first glance. Bathrooms were cleaned and maintained although the did lack stall doors so that was a bit uncomfortable. There is a playground area for kids and the whole atmosphere of the park was calm and peaceful and friendly!!...

"Music On The Bay" live music concerts at Mingus Park are professionally conducted with excellent talent, sound, lighting, and a great kid-friendly music-loving crowd. Having Elkhorn Express BBQ on site this year was a great add. Already looking forward to...
