About Ellis Park Pool (Indoor)
It's always nice to find an indoor pool, especially in a city the size of Chicago, with 2.7 million people. Ellis Park pool is a public facility, so it should be generally affordable. It gets good reviews, a 4.5 out of 5 from 38 people, which is pretty solid. They're open most of the day during the week, from 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM, and then a shorter day on Saturday. It's closed Sundays, which honestly, I've seen a lot of public pools do. Call ahead at (773) 285-8737 to make sure no programs are running when you want to go. I always recommend that for public pools, especially. Their website, chicagoparkdistrict.com/parks-facilities/ellis-park-pool, should have current info too.
