What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for this pool highlight several pros and cons. Positive aspects include its large size, affordable entry for non-residents ($6), and often uncrowded conditions. However, significant criticisms involve a perceived 'class-based barrier' and 'discrimination' due to strict residency verification policies that disproportionately affect renters. There are also complaints about the lack of amenities for young children (no splash pad) and the $5 per-visit charge for kids, which is seen as unfair given its neighborhood location and often prevents children from accessing the pool. Other points mentioned are the need for better parking and very hot pavement requiring shoes.

The pool is big, but there is no splash pad for the little ones. I brought my 4 year old brother, and he cried because he couldn't swim and there was no splash pad

A hidden gem! It was only six bucks for nonresident entry and there were only 11 people including me and the staff at 3 pm on a summer Friday afternoon. Bring shoes. The pavement is HOT!

I was looking into going to this pool because it's right down the street. There seems to be a class based barrier to entry here, though. Why are you trying to keep out certain residents? It clearly states on your policy that a drivers license with a Decatur address is not sufficient. An average of 40% of people rent and many renters don't get utility bills because it's included in rent payments. Tax bills are only for home owners. I'm surprised and disappointed by this discrimination.

I'm kind of upset because the kids have nothing to do and they charge them every time they go to the pool they have to pay $5 every time they go to the pool and the pool is like right here in their neighborhood that's crazy kids don't have the money all the time to go swimming now they don't have nothing to do I seen kids just standing out by the pool because they don't have money it's crazy
