Awesome park Great tennis and pool facilities

Today I visited a grand total of six community pools. Gatlin Rec was the furthest away, and despite that, it is the only pool i visited that i would visit again. Theyre the only location i visited where their hours were readily avaible, they were open as they said they were, and the staff were confident on exactly when they would be open again next. It is unfortunate that the bar for community pools is so low, but Fort Gatlin exceeds this bar and more; the staff are friendly and confident in their work, the facility is clean and well kept, and the pool was accessible both to myself (communication impared and physchally impared) and to others in the community such as other visitors i saw be accomdodated for blindness or other physical disabilites during my visit. Over all: spacious and clean pool, good staff, and the 2$ entry fee is simple (although cash only, and may be an issue for some, and i was glad i happened to have cash. I would recommend they allocate funds for a card reader.)

I went here 3 weeks ago for the first time and I won't be going back. I paid $8 for my sister in law, nieces, and myself to go in and we were only able to be there for 20 minutes because someone had an accident in the pool and they were closing for two hours. About 10 minutes to us being there my sister in law went to pick up my brother, leaving me with my nieces. Suddenly the lightning sensor went off and they closed the pool completely. What really made me upset is the way I was told to get away from underneath an awning with my 7 and 5 year old nieces, and to walk past the gate as cars were leaving because they were closing it. My sister in law was already on her way back to pick us up but they told us to start walking. It was thundering and lightning and then it started to rain and the girls were wet and scared and we were told to walk because they couldn't wait 7 more minutes for our ride to pick us up.

Questions & Answers

Is it pet friendly?

Mara Ferrer | Sep 18, 2021
Pamela Cordero | Sep 18, 2021

Unfortunately, pets are not allowed in the pool area. However, if you are walking your dog and kids sometimes they are nice enough to let you bring your pet to the playground area as long as you can control it.. and keep it on a leash.
