About
Family-friendly hangout with lifeguards overseeing a pool and 2 water slides.
Specific information regarding the exact temperature of the pool(s) at Gunter Pool is not readily available. As a public outdoor seasonal pool in Alabama, its water temperature would primarily be influenced by ambient weather conditions, naturally warming to a comfortable range during its operational summer season.

Many visitors highly recommend it, citing it as a clean, family-friendly environment with great lifeguards, dedicated kiddy pools, shaded seating, and a relaxed atmosphere, often noting its appeal for all ages and sometimes being free.

Please don’t take your kids there⚠️ The pool was very warm and cloudy looking , the filters didn’t appear to work, they didn’t have enough life guards, the deep in of the pool was off limits, the staff didn’t have enough seating put out for our use, instead they had them stashed away Inaccessible. My kids, reported to me that the slide has black stuff on it that appears to be slimy and moldy looking plus we all woke up with a sore throat🤧. It was some unknown chemical in the water that fills your legs with bubbles that are so thick you can draw on yourself 🤮 The staff blows the whistle for every little thing known to mankind, making it very uncomfortable to relax and have fun,I will never go back to this pool again!

My husband and I love going to this public pool. Lifeguards on duty, pool goes as deep as 9 ft, very clean, friendly staff, and a great environment for all ages. They also have a big kitty pool for the little ones!

Great pool. Especially the kiddy pool. I love that they have lifeguards. It's a very chill pool area and unbelievable for it to be free. We all loved it!

First time bringing my babies here, and they love it. The area is nice, and lifeguards are on duty. Nice shaded area to sit.
