Whealan Family Aquatic Center in Chicago, Illinois

“On Monday 7/08/24 we visited the Whealan Aquatic Center because I found that this pool is the only one to open early at 10:30 AM that was close enough for me. Okay, the prices are $7 for kids 4yrs- 12yrs & adults is $9. The parking is free theres a lot in the back just be prepare to walk the sorta long distance. The womenu2019s bathrooms are clean in the morning canu2019t say if they are maintained in the afternoon hours. It”

“I'm obsessed with this place. It's SO fun when everything is working and they're well-staffed. It's perfect for toddlers and large groups. Makes me feel like I'm on vacation! Can't give 5 stars because the slides, splash area and toddler pool are not always open/working.”

“Small clean swimming pool that was inexpensive, and not crowded. I took my daughter and her friends to go swim here. It was only $5 per kid and $7 per adult. We were the first 10 families in line so we were able to get sun chairs. If you are not the first 10 families, be prepared with a blanket or even your own folding chairs. People came prepared with chairs, shade covers, wagons and mini coolers. Although they have”

“The pool was nice. They have a few area's for little kids to play in. They have 2 slides and a lap area. They also have a concession stand. We were there for about 2 hours, and they didn't have the kids get out of the pool for 10 min break. That was great!! I don't know why most pools have the kids get out for that crazy break.”

“Place is in horrible condition. Filthy bathrooms and showers filled leaves and garbage. Place needs a renovation and new management. Slides were not working and bad smell in the bathrooms was overwhelming. Food shack offers poor selection and was closed at 3pm on a beautiful sunny Saturday. I would be seriously concern about health of my kids there.”

“No longer allow outside food. Buys at our concessions. 3 out of four lifeguards didn't show today so the slides were closed and a portion of the kids play area is closed as well. Taped off with no water running. This place was alright before but has gone downhill. Better options around.”
