Read more about this location
Central Park Pool and Spray Park is Schenectady's city-run pool complex with a spray park component. The city's official pools page lists 2025 public hours beginning June 28 and notes that access is strictly limited to current City of Schenectady residents, with a guest policy for eligible city residents. This is a better fit for local resident families than for casual regional visitors, but it stands out for combining spray play with a larger aquatic setting.
