Day 29 | Cook Creek Pool | Lone Tree Colorado
On Day 29 of 365 Things to Do in South Denver Suburbs it just it time for the weather to heat up and head over to the Cook Creek Pool in Lone Tree for some of its final days of the season.
The Cook Creek Pool was renovated and this year its become a crowd favorite, even with my own kids. There are actually 2 main pools. The upper pool has an enormous water slide, water play structure, nets for water basketball, zero entry area. The lower pool at Cook Creek is an 8 lane lap pool but the big attraction there is the diving board. Between the tower water slide and the diving board, my kids were hopping back and forth between the two pools all day.
The area itself is well spread out, there is a large grassy area so even though its possible all the chairs could be taken (although we found chairs just fine), if you have a blanket, you will be able to find a place to settle in for the day. There is also a good amount of shade too, but that may be a bit harder to come by on the hottest days. You are welcome to bring in coolers for picnics and there is a small snack bar as well.
The Cook Creek Pool is managed by South Suburban Parks & Recreation and does charge admission. SSPRD in-district rates are $3.50 for adults and $3.00 for kids. Out of district rates are $6.50 for adults and $5.50 for kids. Punch passes are available as well. The pool is located at 8711 Lone Tree Parkway, just west of the Lone Tree Library. The South Suburban Parks & Rec has great facilities for its residents, Cook Creek Pool is just one of them. If you have recently relocated to Lone Tree or another area that is in district by SSPRD, you will love all that there is to offer here.
Cook Creek Pool closes for the regular season after Monday, August 16th. After that, it will be open weekends only through September 6th, 2010, weather permitting. Weekday hours are 11 am – 7:00 pm and the weekends are a bit different – from 10 am – 6:00 pm.
It sounds like we are going to head over to Cook Creek Pool in Lone Tree at least one more time this summer – hopefully we will see you there!
