Fairmont Pool

Fairmont pool was one of my least favorite pools, even though Lowell and South are smaller. An L-shaped pool like Borah, Fairmont goes from 3 to 6ft in depth and there are no diving boards. The only amenity is a basketball hoop. My perspective may have been somewhat skewed by the sidewalk construction happening outside and the less-than-helpful staff member I interacted with.This pool would be good for lap swimming. There are lap swim hours between 12 and 1 daily.

Fairmont does have the advantage of being next to Fairmont Park and a shave-ice hut, just like Borah. Lounge chairs are available free of charge for adults, and lap swims are available from 

Fairmont pool is located at 7929 Northview Street, south of the Ustick and Cole intersection. For hours, visit the City of Boise website here. For rates, click here.
