Opening early: Victoria Pool

posted May 31, 2013

We mentioned this in STDTW, but it's worth highlighting: The Victoria Pool at Saratoga Spa State Park is opening for the season early this weekend.

The Victoria Pool is an excellent place to lounge while having a drink. There's a sort of casual opulence about it. Also: it has a pool. With water. That you can swim in.

The schedule for this weekend, and the next, and the next: 10 am-6 pm Saturday and Sunday. It's $8 for adults, $4 for kids and seniors, and free for kids under 5. The pool will be open daily starting June 22.

I have always wanted to go swimming in that beautiful pool.
I can't do ladders.
Does anyone know if it also has stairs, and showers in the bath house?

I've only been to the Peerless Pool, which has zero-entry (love!) but a quick Google image search does show stairs at the Victoria Pool.

The Vic pool does have showers! The bath house closes right at 6, when the pool closes too.
