This pool ruined my marriage!! I came here with my now ex-wife Kathy, and she became angry at me because she thought I was looking at other women!! She had been irritated since I spent her tax return on miniature trees for my train set, but this incident put her over the edge. She took both our children, and now I have no one! I'm very lonely now, and ever since I lost my job at the call center, no women seem to want me.

The pool is alright and mostly clean. It also has a good amount of seating but felt very packed in. It was also brutally hot where we were and there was only shade in a small area. My main gripe, however, is how small the bathrooms are there. There were only two stalls available and two urinals. Which would be fine if it wasn't packed full with two swim teams.

Great pool and people! Location is fantastic, with shady trees and views of the lake (Lakeview - get it?!?). Never crowded on weekday mornings. We aren't weekend swim people so I can't speak to that, although the one Sunday we went it was packed. Pool is always clean. There are a lot of tables. These things are important.

This is a great community pool in the Kings Park West neighborhood in Fairfax, VA. Pool is well maintained, very clean and managed by great staff. Tons of activities and events during the swim season. They also have a very active swim and dive team that is coached by a team of well respected coaches and junior coaches (that are also members of the team). The pool is located on a wooded lot (think lots of shade!) near Royal lake and next to a county park with super play ground and tennis courts.
