Hidden Valley Foundation does its best to keep the pools open as much as possible. The swimming pools will operate during normal hours of operation, weather permitting. To avoid closing the swimming pools entirely, the Foundation may modify the hours of operations based on the forecasted weather conditions. In the event of swimming pool closures or modifications to the hours of operation, the community and its homeowners will be notified. For questions regarding pool operations, please contact the Hidden Valley Foundation Office at 814.443.3001.
The South Ridge swimming pool is open to homeowners, guests, and renters while the Highlands swimming pool is only open to homeowners and their guests. Therefore, we wish to remind everyone that the lifeguards will be continuing to check for homeowner cards and/or temporary pool passes upon entering the swimming pool areas. Hidden Valley Foundation encourages all homeowners, guests, and renters to review the pool rules to ensure the safety of all. Help us help you have a relaxing pool visit with minimal complications.
