Sheridan Park Pool (Indoor) in Chicago, Illinois

“This review is for the semi-private lessons offered by the parks department. I took swim lessons here and I had a great experience! To preface I am in no means a beginner swimmer, but I am an untrained one. My goals were specific which was 1) be stronger in my strokes and mainly 2) be able to do a flip turn.

“Good place for kids. Lots of options are like tennis courts, basketball, swimming and open ground. Also have a small kids park. The only issue I saw was no proper hot water supply in the bathroom, it's difficult to take a bath after swimming.”

“Splitting this review in two sections - lessons and facility: -Lessons: Swim lessons with Alex have taken me from being irrationally afraid of the deep end to being able to swim laps using 3 out of the 4 main strokes.

“Nowhere to park! Also, I came with a group of teens to swim during open swim. The staff told us they are aware that it is open swim, but they had a parent and tot session so the guys couldnu2019t swim, but they can play in the gym.
