Payette Public Pool

Just a heads-up to future visitors: Payette Public Pool enforces a strict dress code, yet as of now, there is no visible signage or prior notice about this policy. If your swimwear is deemed “not family appropriate,” you will be asked to leave and no, they do not issue refunds. It’s a public pool, not a private club, and families deserve transparency. If you’re going to take people’s money, the rules should be clearly communicated upfront. Consider this your warning so you’re not caught off guard like we were.

Pool is fine. Staff has always been nice to me. But the pool is never open. Has crazy inconsistent and changing hours. It functions more like a club than a business or a public service.

I was really hoping to enroll my children in swimming lessons at this pool, but unfortunately the experience trying to get clear information was frustrating and ultimately disappointing. I first reached out by email to get details on pricing, schedule, and what the lessons included. It took quite a while to hear back, and when I did, the answers I received were vague—just that lessons were coming up and we could be added to a waitlist. No specific dates, no firm pricing, and no real details. When I called the pool directly, the person I spoke with was very kind and much more helpful. She quoted $25 per lesson for group instruction, which is already quite a bit more expensive than other local options. That's $200 for the 8 group lessons you sign on for, per child. Still, we were trying t

The temperature is always fluctuating, but usually remains too cold for seniors and when you see children not wanting to get in because it’s too cold that speaks volumes. Turn up the heat to make it tolerable. 84,degrees is not too much to ask for

June 4th I went to the Payette pool with my kids, all females working that day, when pool was closing one lady in particular was rude signaling kids to get out 20 minutes early (she had tattoos on her arms). My wife mentioned when going to the bathroom to change, multiple workers were in there “cleaning” (all watching one girl clean) just inside the toilets. Ladies made ridiculous comments while doing so. I’ve always enjoyed coming while two younger gentleman have worked they have always been respectful and super friendly to my family.
