About the Venue

Buhr Park Pool sits within one of Ann Arbor's best-equipped city parks, giving families an easy way to pair water play with a playground, picnic tables, and open park space. The city confirms the park address, restrooms, parking, and larger amenity mix, while the pool complex itself is the main summer water attraction at Buhr. This is a better fit for families who want a full outdoor pool outing rather than a simple free spray-ground stop.
