Epping Aquatic and Leisure Centre reviews
51Nice local pool to learn and for leisure swimming.wairing for the upgrading work to commence and hoping it will not be too disruptive.
On a hot day water was 28C; what a joke; I tolerated only two laps in this bath water. It's the hottest olympic pool I've been too in Australia, and friend said the same thing. Expect no refund when you politely ask for one.
Yea, and how about get some outdoor shower/s (hot and cold water)!? Some man came & stood right next to me while I was trying to finish in shower, of which they have 2 (two) for men. Does the management imagine that covid is going to magically disappear & never return?
This place is truly a gem, such a lovely setting. The facilities are good, the pool is a fantastic size and is heated. It is set inside dense park and just beautiful.
Great pool that's tucked away in the tranquil bushland of Epping.
Older but well maintained facilities and really friendly staff.
Clean, inexpensive and a moderate walk from Epping station.
Was very quiet when I was there but I'm.told can be very busy in summer months.
Not the best Picture of the facilities there, but as we are in Covid Times, I understand.
An old building with many rooms for groups to hold their meetings.
LACK OF DUTY OF CARE & OHS MEASURES - I have been to this local gem for years, but as the local area becomes more populated, this pool is getting more packed. Unfortunately, the quality of supervision and pool management has also waned.
Despite signs advising no bombing, no diving, no running, no ball games, no etc, patrons seem to ignore them and lifesavers simply turn on a blind eye to any offence.
At the pool today (14 Jan), this kid did a massive bomb just shy of hitting me and the lifesaver (within 2m of us) witnessed it all and despite my plead (arm raised in the air), he didn't say a word to the kid and no warning was given whatsoever. So where's the safety control? Being ignorant?
As this pool becomes busier, serious accidents are bound to happen unless stringent OHS measures are enforced. As it stands, a 1 star rating is more than the pool supervision deserves.
What a well kept secret, if you like outdoor pools this place is where you need to go. Set among a bush backdrop this place is very clean & comfortable
Nightmare turned up and they wouldn't take cash and wouldn't let me in DOH since when has cash not been legal tender?
Good swimming centre. Good facilities. Pool is heated. Doesn't have a roof but that's ok. Staff are always friendly and helpful.
This is a really nice little pool tucked away in Epping. Surrounded pretty much by a lovely bush backdrop.
Just a single 8 (?) lane 50m pool and a little training pool. It's outdoors and so you are at the vagaries of the weather, but, c'mon. This is Orstralya, right? ️
There is undercover tiered seating which faces ESE to keep you protected and this will be in shade in the hot Aussie arvo.
Well kept and the water was nice'n'warm on a chilly November day. (Dang those Southerlies! ️)
With COVID a lot of the best bits are not accessible: changerooms and the outdoor bits are closed to stop bat-flu spread.
Still, go and have a nice swim or do some laps and support a great community resource. We'll knock the stinking COVID over eventually and then live the new normal!
Terrific pool, with friendly staff, and water at a good temperature. Great price too. COVID restrictions mean no showers or change room, but it works out ok.
I like it, It reminds me of Sydney in the 60s. Not crowded.clean, showers could do with an upgrade.
I love Epping Pool, it is clean, great setting and its like stepping back in time.dont change a thing.it is the best!
Great fun activities especially during Christmas. Drawback is toddler pool is not warm at all. Adults pool in good size and clean. Friendly staffs.
Good pool, very clean, decent temperature, there's a few lanes for lap swimming and it's in a great location
This should be called EPIC pool, I love it, I love the fact it is all old school and not shiny and plastic. And the water is great. Also smart in the showers that you have to press a button and they turn off automatically so no wasted hot water. Staff are also very friendly and make each visit a pleasure. Thank you.
Decent staff.
Decent facilities.
A good alternative to the non-existent Parra pools
This outdoor pool is great for the summer. However, the toilets are a bit old, the doors are a bit short and you have to press a separate button for hot water.
Great pool, come here every week. There's an outside lane pool and a small indoor one that's mainly for toddlers and young kids. Theres also another pool but that's also for younger kids. Pool is clean and chlorinated but the showers and change rooms were a bit musty and old (cobwebs and dead insects in change rooms, only two showers have hot water).
Place was quite run down and in need of a major upgrade to bring it to the 21st century standards. Heard that council is planning to invest into this pool. Hopefully, it'll updated to include a heated pool and an indoor area.
