Foothills Pool: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Enough parking. Inside is renovated and is in good shape. Have a good viewing area.
Positive experience: Very cold outside today to stand waiting for pool to open because someone called in sick. Wonder why alternate staff not available in such cases. Lane swimming only open for 1 hour so who wants to be standing outside when pool not open for 1st 1/2 hou!
Positive experience: Nice place to learn swimming and deck area for parents is inside swimming pool.
Fantastic experience: This is a great neighborhood pool. I go here for a Deep Water Workout. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: This swimming pool is second to none for its atmosphere and vibes monitored by an amazing, friendly and very professional team of lifeguards (Chipdem, Scott, etc.). And last but not least, the facility is always clean and with hot water. It is an aquatic dream come true! Kudos again to the all-star(fish) team!
Fantastic experience: I did my Bronze Medallion with Sarah and Bronze Cross with Kaitlyn here. Both were knowledgeable instructors who made for enjoyable experiences.
Negative experience: The temperature of the area is cooler than other pools which makes it unpleasant!
Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff & great swim instructors!
Negative experience:
Positive experience: Comparing with other municipal pools this is cleaner, but has no steam room, no curtains in the shower and inconvenient schedule - no possibility to swim after the work
Fantastic experience: This place is nice but getting spots is a pain and infact in any arena its the same so can't really so much. Hope more slots are made available in all arenas.
Positive experience: Building needs more ventilation
Fantastic experience: My son had swimming lessons with these guys and he had so much fun! I am so happy with his instructor and the facility was very nice!

Positive experience: It's a good pool when I went when I was younger but unfortunately I once had a concerning moment at this pool back in 2014 or so and It was the end of the public swim and i was on a floaty that someone had moved when i went to grab it then I proceeded to struggle to get out of the water because i was disoriented funny thing is that the Lifeguard "on duty" Did absolutely nothing to help me even though i was screaming for my life literally. I really hope that girl doesn't work their anymore cause the fact that she had watch me struggle for a good few minutes and did nothing is concerning and that my sister had to save me even though the person that job it was. Was completely useless and basically almost killed me. and Traumatized me with that moment. Other than that it a nice pool.
Fantastic experience: Great pool. Has separate dive tank. No hot tub or steam room though.
Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff. Great pool condition, nice relatively large locker rooms. Try the Drop-in programs for family and kids.
Fantastic experience: Good programs, great instructors, and friendly staff. Pool is really cold though!
Fantastic experience: Good size swimming pool. Tons of classes available for kids
Fantastic experience: It's a great place to take toddlers and small children. It was 5 dollars for me, my wife and two children.
Positive experience: Smiling staff
Positive experience: No sauna or hot tub but the pool was good not deep less than 1.4 m which is good for someone learning how to swim.
Fantastic experience: Really nice place to swim!
Positive experience: The place itself is great but there are some cutbacks... 1. The change rooms are quite small and ALWAYS wet with disgusting puddles usually with a lot of hair. It is quite disgusting.... 2. The lane pool ALWAYS has white booger like things at the bottom. Sometimes floating around.
Positive experience: Not super busy so good for a work out
Positive experience: It's a nice community pool to swim in and fairly easy to get to. I went with some friends and we had a good time together even their child had fun. They have a kids pool if they want to go in there but they also provide floating devices and life jackets for safety. This pool has one water slide (nothing fancy though) and it goes into the deepest pool there which also has a low diving board. The water temperature is pleasant to swim in.
Positive experience: Very good. The staff is very attentive and takes pain to teach the kids
Positive experience: Very clean and organized but not sufficient seating for events. Great pool, hot tub and diving pool. Uniquely designed and good prices. Adequate for all ages and people. Nice service and good lifeguards and big place, close to the University of Calgary.
Positive experience: Friendly staff, super clean facility.
Positive experience: We booked swimming classes for kids. This aquatic cente has totally changed after renovations. This center has pretty good washrooms and change rooms. It's in the NW quadrant. The swimming instructors are really dedicated and hardworking. The size of the pool is not very big but just ok. Water temperature is very comfortable and not cold like other pools in the city.
Fantastic experience: My daughter loves it
Fantastic experience: Great aquatic centre
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff for the most part, clean changerooms and pool water.
Fantastic experience: Just got renovated. Looks great! Lifeguards are awesome!
Fantastic experience: my daighter swims there, friendly staff, good viewing area.
Fantastic experience: It's clean and organized
Positive experience: The pool is clean and water usually is clear, friendly staffs. Less crowded. More opportunities of adult lanes and deep water pool for swimming or physical activities. One of my great places to go.
Fantastic experience: Great Monday night deep water workout, newly renovated, great pool.
Fantastic experience: Great swimming pool for lengths and has a dive tank. Can also take kids into a shallow kiddie pool.
Positive experience: Standard 6 lane city or Calgary Pool
Positive experience: Nice pools but a little small for big competitions. For us was excellent, we could appreciate in detail because of the short distance between the audience and the swimmers.
Positive experience: Very nice facility. Great for family swim lessons.
Positive experience: Nice public pool and large seating area for parents to watch lessons. Have been happy with most instructors however the only downside is they put kids in life jackets far too much to teach them to swim making it much harder for kids to learn to swim
Positive experience: Small change rooms with 6 showers in each change room. Shower area can get really congested after lessons especially in the women's change room. Lots of bleacher seating.
Positive experience: The staff are very friendly, but the water is rather cold and there is no hot tub nor steam room to warm up in. There is a tot pool (appropriate for ages 0-3) that is warm, and the price is very reasonable.
Fantastic experience: Amazing place to learn how to swim, as well as to bring the family for a fun day. Has a lane pool, dive tank, and a viewing area for the people who don’t want to get wet!
Positive experience: Much-needed renovation finally complete and it was a huge improvement!
Fantastic experience: Nice pool, clean facility, friendly staff
Fantastic experience: There is tot pool that is perfect for little ones during the week. Check the web schedule for tot pool times on the weekend.
Fantastic experience: I used to swim here as a kid and now have the pleasure of taking my kiddos for swim lessons here. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Change rooms are dated but clean and well maintained. Tot pool is great as is the main pool and dive tank. Highly recommend!

Positive experience: Great place for kids class only problem is the parking. Some times no space to park
Fantastic experience: Nice people
Positive experience: One of the quietest city pools. No hot tub no steam room. A really fun wave pool for infants and young young one two three four year olds. A good pool.
Fantastic experience: An amazing facility. From teaching basic swimming skills to training future instructors and lifeguards, Foothills will most likely be a place you will check off on your list for serious aquatic training. Great work!
Positive experience: Very professional trainors. Also have a tot pool.
