Pool schedule, cabanas, & guidelines

Access: Only the AVAC® front parking lot is available. Please enter & check-in through the tennis gate.

Overview: AVAC® is pleased to announce the opening of our outdoor pools, in accordance with the June 5th SC County Public Health rules. The County is discouraging any gathering on the pool deck other than to watch children swim for safety, & even in that case households must distance themselves from others.  Per the County: All gathering shall be prohibited outside the pool, such as on pool decks, except that members of a household may observe a child or other person swimming to ensure safety & supervision. 

Schedule (please leave promptly at your end time to allow cleaning time & distancing)
Reservations are 49 hours in advance.

Reservations & Guidelines

  • Reserve your spot 49 hours in advance.
      • This system will not accommodate all active members daily, or even every other day. PLEASE be courteous, don't reserve two days in a row, take turns when there's shared facilities
  • Double cabana capacity. Bring another current, active AVAC® family with you to your cabana reservation. We've spaced out furniture on the pool deck & ask that you monitor your families for spacing in the pool.
  • Based on significant feedback & daily no-shows of lap swimming & cabana reservations, a $25 no-show fee will be automatically added to your account for any reservations booked but not attended without canceling 2 or more hours prior to your reservation. Front Desk staff will digitally mark you as attended as you enter the facility each day. PLEASE avoid the fee & only book what you know you'll use or cancel more than 2 hours in advance by calling 408.445.4900.
  • Masks On: Due to increased opening of AVAC's programs, & therefore pool traffic, please maintain a face covering on while using a cabana, other than eating or drinking.
  • AVAC® Staff will be wearing masks throughout the facility, however, due to the nature of some of our tasks: lifeguarding, maintenance, swim teaching, for safety purposes you may see us distance ourselves and drop our mask to catch our breath
  • Restrooms & changing areas are available in the Jr. Locker Rooms, Back Desk, Tennis, & Swim School.
  • Outdoor rinse off shower & equipment disinfection buckets available
  • Open Aire (Swim School) Pool will remain with roof completely open
  • Cafe is open during recreational swim. Please place order with a staff person or call 408.445.4954.
    • Take a look at the menu provided at your cabana
    • When you're ready to order, waive to any nearby staff person. We'll be regularly checking in with each cabana
    • Per the County guidelines, if you're ordering beer or wine, be prepared to order food with it
  • Cabana Guidelines:
    • 1 swimmer per lap lane, or up to 2 swimmers from the same household 
    • County allows for 5 families in the outdoor pool, so we've created individual cabanas with tables, umbrellas, chairs, lounges, & a designated swimming area
    • Wading Pool can also be reserved
    • Up to 2 households per cabana
  • Lifeguards will facilitate deep end & outdoor spa usage
