Tosa Pool at Hoyt Park
414-302-9160
One of Wauwatosa's proudest civic achievements, Tosa Pool at Hoyt Park opened in 2011 after citizens raised $8 million in donations to rebuild the former Hoyt Park Pool, which closed in 2003.
The new pool is a state-of-the-art facility with the features of a small water park. It offers zero-depth entry, a variety of slides, fountains and play pieces and broad decks for sunning (and plenty of shade, too).
Concessions are sold in the lovingly restored Depression-era bathhouse, which can be rented for private affairs. The pool and bathhouse are managed by the private non-profit Friend of Hoyt Park & Pool, "Bringing summer back to Wauwatosa."
