Medlock Pool

1st time here 7/9/2023, nice pool and area, it goes to 12ft starts at 3ft, it also has a splash pad. Plenty of seating with umbrellas , you can also bring your own chairs and snacks if needed. 2 diving boards, Reasonable entry fee, parking can be limited. Family oriented atmosphere. This is a hidden gem in Decatur Ga. I will be back

The best of Dekalb’s 6 pools. My homeschool crew and I have been exploring the county’s aquatics facilities and this is the 5th of the 6 listed on their website. 1. It has ample shade/cover for guests- in addition to the normal picnic bench umbrellas 2. 10 picnic tables, 6 with umbrellas the others quaintly situated under the shade 3. Working (clean-not grimy) splash pad 4. Attentive life guard and polite staff 5. Surrounding facilities are impeccably maintained I would say the place was full judging by the parking lot but it didn’t feel crowded in or by the pool. The swimmers/families were more diverse (age race and economic status) here which I appreciate too 😇 It’s a little further than the others to our home but I think it’s worth the trip for the same price and nicer experience.

This was my first time here and I enjoyed it! The pool goes up to 12 feet. The staff was very respectful and the pool is clean.

We had a great time at our neighborhood pool party. The water was clean, bathrooms accessible, and there was plenty of parking. The splash pad was an added bonus for our family!

Medlock pool has improved dramatically over the last 2 years. Resurfaced deck, new splash pad, both diving boards open, and the water quality just seems better than before. Two weeks ago, it was in the best shape I’ve seen in 14 years of living here, but a storm must have blown through and ripped down the shade canopies (again). Hopefully those will be fixed soon. Thankfully, they seem to have done away with hourly “adult swim” times. Also note that patrons must now do a swim test (across the width of the pool and back) before using the diving boards or swimming in the deep end.
