Woodland, California is a charming town in the heart of Yolo County. It's a place where community spirit flows as freely as the waters in our local pools. If you're on the hunt for a spot to make a splash, you're in luck. Our area boasts some fantastic publicly accessible pools that are perfect for cooling off on those sun-drenched summer days.
First up, we have Charles Brooks Community Swim Center. This gem is located right in Woodland and is a hub of activity when the temperatures rise. The Swim Center is open seasonally from June through August, aligning perfectly with our sizzling summers. Entry fees are quite affordable—just $3 for children and $5 for adults. It's a small price to pay for an afternoon of aquatic fun! The pool operates Monday through Friday from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM and on weekends from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. If you’re looking to avoid the crowds and snag that prime poolside real estate, consider visiting during weekday afternoons when it's less busy.
The water here is always sparkling clean, thanks to diligent maintenance by our dedicated staff, who take pride in keeping everything shipshape. You can almost feel the community pride radiating off the surface of the water as families gather for swim lessons or friendly games of Marco Polo.
Just a short drive away in Davis, you'll find Arroyo Pool—a favorite among locals who don't mind a quick jaunt down Highway 113. Arroyo Pool offers more than just swimming; it's an experience! With its lush green surroundings and shaded picnic areas, it's like stepping into an oasis right in your backyard.
Arroyo Pool is also open seasonally from June through September. Admission prices are family-friendly at $4 per child and $6 per adult—making it easy on the wallet while being heavy on fun! The pool welcomes swimmers every day from 1:00 PM until 6:00 PM during peak season, allowing plenty of time to enjoy both the water and sunlit afternoons.
Quality-wise, Arroyo Pool does not disappoint! Its crystal-clear waters reflect not just the sky but also our community's commitment to providing top-notch recreational facilities. For those seeking tranquility amidst their splashing adventures, early afternoon visits are ideal—before school lets out or families arrive en masse with their flotillas of floaties.
Now, let's dive into something a bit different—the UC Davis Rec Pool Complex! While technically part of the university campus, this facility opens its doors wide to the public during certain times of the year. It’s perfect if you’re looking for more than just your average swim; think lap lanes for exercise enthusiasts or lazy rivers for those who prefer floating along at leisure.
The Rec Pool Complex operates primarily during summer months with varying hours depending on university schedules—typically weekdays from noon until early evening hours and weekends extending slightly longer into twilight's embrace. Prices hover around $10 per visit but trust me when I say it’s worth every penny given its expansive amenities including diving boards and kiddie play areas designed to delight little ones.
Timing your visit here can be key—weekend mornings tend to be quieter compared to bustling afternoons filled with students seeking respite from their studies (and maybe even practicing their cannonball technique!). With such diverse offerings under one roof—or rather sky—you’ll find there’s something here for everyone, whether you’re aiming for fitness or fun!
Each pool has its own unique charm and character, and it is waiting to be discovered by both residents and visitors alike. So grab your goggles (and maybe some sunscreen) because adventure awaits beneath these shimmering surfaces!
