Coffman Pool

This is a well cared for swimming pool. Great place for lap swimming. You must check the schedule as they use the pool for many different activities. The location next to McLaren Park is both good and bad. There is plenty of parking along Visitacion Ave - but is could be a little risky for break-ins.

I would've given this pool a 5-star review but its new rule effective September 3rd that parents aren't allowed in the pool room has me a little mystified.

The parents who were there today including me were very respectful and quiet, taking our places on benches fifteen feet from the pool. There weren't very many of us (maybe 5?) so we couldn't be distracting.

We removed our shoes before entering the pool room as the signage stipulates; I don't get it what the issue is.

I may have to push back against this silly new rule; I don't like it.

My little boy's teacher, Jasmine, also teaches at the North Beach pool where we'd taken a semester of lessons so we knew her slightly. Jasmine was very gentle and listened carefully and gave lots of good feedback, instruction and praise.

My little boy not only tried harder to execute the strokes perfectly but positively glowed after he got out of the pool: he was so proud of his efforts.

And, thanks to another great program from Parks & Rec, we can take advantage of private one-on-one swim lessons that would otherwise be completely unaffordable.

This review is for the safety of the area where this pool is located at. If you come here to swim then don't drive here. Take the bus.
My car got broken into on Hanh St which is where I parked. When I finished swimming I found out that my rear window was broken into and my personal belongings were stolen. There's no security cameras in the pool building and the front staff doesn't even care that my car got broken into while swimming in their pool. All this took less than 1 hour!
Watch out ! I will never come back here again.

It's hidden in the excelsior community of SF. It's street parking and I love how it this pool benefits the people in this community.

Love the open community of swimming and self-exercising. It is healthy and social! The water is warming and the hours humane for seniors.

At least six long lanes. Very spacious all around.

Water's not cold, but a little colder than North Beach Pool's warm side and much warmer than NB's cold lap lanes.

Showers warm enough.

Friday night family swim not too crowded.

Pleasant staff. They're also great in the adult swim lessons.

$6 cash only. Bring a lock.

Beautiful swimming pool and the staff are so nice. Check online for schedules as they change throughout the year.

This was the pool that I had gone to when taking swimming classes at CCSF. This was years ago before CCSF did their remodel.

That was the year I met this wonderful woman, but didn't want to move it forward because I already had a girlfriend. Who was to know that she ended up cheating on me.

Came for lap swim. The pool and facility were relatively clean. It wasn't too packed and I didn't have to work too hard to avoid anyone. It's 6 dollars per adult but depending on who is at the desk, the rate seems flexible (I guess this is to encourage people to use it and to allow wider access to all of the city's residents).

This pool is run by a committed team who are kind, helpful and quick to act on issues. This is a special secret gem of a pool I'm reluctant to share but everyone should have a chance to enjoy it. The pool is clean, nice wide lanes, people are respectful and redirected by staff when needed. The changing rooms and showers are all in good working order. The light streaming in is particularly unique and makes the place feel like a spa. Enjoy!
