Macon County Parks and Recreation Pool 365 Allman Drive, Franklin, NC 28734

"Love this pool. $1.00 entry fee to swim. I go early in the AM to do water aerobics while my husband swims laps. The pool area is kept very clean, the chairs are all wiped down and hosed down. A lively group of young people all have various assignments for cleaning. A wonderful way to begin the day!"

"Friendly staff! Clean bathrooms, showers, changing rooms. There are 2 pools. One is for babies-preschoolers and the other one for swimmers. The first pool has a spraying area in the beach type of pool. This pool is shallow I have my 2 year old swimm without a float because she can touch the bottom and she loves water. Also, there are 2 roofed shaded areas with picnic benches. The latter one is divided in 2 sections: the not so deep area with the slide and the deep pool area for people who have passed the swimming test. Around the pool there are some chairs to seat or lay out. The only down side is that sometimes there are some bees/yellow jackets flying around chasing food. But, you can take your own cooler full of goodies and drinks. Also, you can take water toys and floaties. There is a snack store with reasonable prices, but no lunch type if food. It always opens at 12 pm. There are plenty of LIFEGUARDS!!! Almost forgot there are lockers."

"My kids absolutely love going to the community pool!! They have a great little kid pool that is 2ft at it's deepest with a couple little things the kids can stand ankle deep and go under to get wet and some water spouts out of the water. They also have a slide in the large pool that the kids love to go down. It's a great place for a day of family fun in the water."

"I'm here every day I have off almost such a great pool for kids and adults"

"Kids took their little ones to the pool and next day realized they had forgotten both of the kids floaties there. I told them to stop back in and just maybe there would be honest folks here. Two days later we all went back and guess what, they had put the kids floaties up for safe keeping!! Makes you feel good knowing there are still decent honest people around!!"
