Bowling Green City Pool & Waterpark

We had a great time at Bowling Pool! The place is clean, well-maintained, and perfect for kids—mine had a blast. It’s a fun spot for families to hang out and play. Just a heads-up: the food wasn’t great, so maybe eat before you go. Don’t show up hungry! 😅

Drove 30 minutes just to discover slides and diving boards are closed. We have been told it is because the water isn’t “clear”, but as you can see in the photos it is very clear. We have been told several times “it may open in an hour”, but we have been waiting for 3 and they still haven’t opened it. Ridiculous.

I love this place when my mom takes her swimming lessons. Also very public pool to swim at. Best city pool ever, feels so fun to go to. Tons of lifeguards to help others out and enforce the rules of the city pool.

The pool is nice and big. You got a kiddie pool that is about 2 ft deep and then there an adult area with a slide and diving board. My biggest gripe is how poor it is ran. We got here around 2:30 and within 10 minutes, the adult area was closed for swim meet. I didn't get tonuse the diving board. While waiting at the slide we were told 1 person on each platform between the stairs. We were disgruntled and talking. One of the lifeguards overheard us and told us "None of that". My mom even got involved and told the guards how we are not happy to be subject to only a 2 ft pool. They didn't offer any kind of refund, but to leave a review upon leaving and they'll get back to us in a week and probably offer a free pass. Nope, sorry, we aren't coming back for a long time if ever! To top it off, we

The facility is clean, and the staff is friendly. It’s a great spot for families! However, the frequent and lengthy breaks were a real downside. During our 2 hour and 10 minute visit, there were 55 minutes of break time—two 20-minute breaks and one 15-minute break. Most of the patrons that day were families with young children, which meant adults couldn’t use the break time to enjoy adult swim either. Lifeguards remained on duty, so it makes me wonder if these breaks could be shortened or spaced out differently. At $32 for a non-resident family of four, it felt a bit disappointing to spend so much time out of the water. We would love to come back, but hope the break policy might be reconsidered.
