NEW POOL REVIEW: Rengstorff Park Aquatic Center, Mountain View, CA. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

The new Rengstorff Park swimming pool in Mountain View, California

Firstly $7 non-resident drop in entry fee. Just slightly more expensive than my coffee that morning. Bay Area bargain! It’s only been open for a month so it’s brand spanking new. Water was the right temperature and didn’t taste weird or anything. They had signs for lap speed! Very rare in 🇺🇸 but very welcome. Swam with a speedy lad. Quarter star off for no timing clock anywhere. Not something that concerns me overly cos I can go off my watch but seems like a silly omission. They also didn’t open until 9am which doesn’t make sense but the hours get earlier in April so I’m assuming it was just for a soft opening.

Nice warm individual showers with soap but limited bench space to get changed (the other quarter star deduction). And of course it was a 25yrd pool instead of a 50m but I’ll probably go to my grave waiting for that to happen here but I’ll deduct half a star for that because you never know what the future holds. Anyways good job City of Mountain View getting a new affordable pool together during this cost of living CRISIS.
