Midway Pool,

3181 Midway Road, Decatur, GA 30032

"This is a decent neighborhood pool. Its a decent sized pool w/lifeguards. Its attached to the rec center so there are plenty of kids. There aren't too many amenities and very little seating. It does suit the needs but overall does need a little love. The staff were really nice & helpful. For $3/adult you really can't beat it and its so close to my home. I would definitely return."

"Nice and friendly staff. I frequent this pool often and have not had a problem. If you don't want to follow pool rules or shower before swimming don't come. The pool has beach style entry, a lap lane and a diving board into 12 ft. You must prove you can swim through a swim test before utilizing one of the two diving boards. There is a grill and playground right outside of the pool and an ice cream truck is usually in the parking lot. It costs $3 for adult entry. Come visit, have fun and I hope to see you there."

"The pool is pretty well maintained, has a shallow and deep end with diving boards, and a lap lane. The life guards stay on duty but it can be tough to figure out when the pool is open. They seem to close early a lot so you’ll want to call ahead on the day of to see if they’re open."

"Staff here is very nice and friendly. Pool is well kept. They have a capacity limit which is a good safety protocol to follow. I'm glad they do. I've been here twice now and plan to come back often."

"My children and I visited this pool for the first time yesterday, but we won't be returning. The first thing that I noticed is that the staff is unfriendly and abrupt. We also realized that there are rules that apply at this pool that don't apply (or aren't enforced at other DeKalb County pools). My 11-year old son wasn't allowed to enter the pool because he was wearing basketball shorts as trunks. As a result, he had to stand in the blazing sun and watch his sisters play in the pool. This hadn't been a problem at the DC pool we'd visited the day before. My daughters were asked to shower before entering the pool. They weren't asked to do the same at the DC pool the previous day; however, this is actually a rule that I wish ALL pools would abide by. Finally, my 4-year old daughter was asked to leave her noodle outside of the pool. I was unhappy with that request because she uses it to float. She had to remain in the shallow end of the pool as we watched another lady, and a young boy, swim with noodles. Again, my daughter had her noodle at the other DC pool just one day prior. Finally, the website states that this pool is opened until 6PM, but the lady, who checked us in, said that they close at 5:30PM. Sure enough, the lifeguard announced that the pool was closed at 5:30."
