Summer:

The BVS Pool is one of our most popular amenities from Memorial Day through Labor Day, including a heated 25 yard pool and wading pool staffed with Red Cross certified lifeguards enjoyed by adults and families. Whether you are looking to add swimming to your exercise regimen, want to wear your kids out during summer break, or just relax and read up book soaking up the sunshine, the pool is the place to be! 

The pool snack bar is available for limited hours throughout the summer months.  Group swim lessons(additional fee required) for all skill levels are available with certified instructors over 3 sessions, and private swim lessons can be scheduled as well. The Bear Valley Grizzlies Swim Team and Water Aerobics are a great way to meet neighbors(additional fees apply) and daily lap swim will keep you in shape!
