    So I had hoped and planned on spending more time at this park to watch the softball tournament my…read morehusband's girls travel softball team was playing in. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate. We got to the field which was, maddeningly one hour away from our hotel. Thanks not at all to the tournament which arranged this. There was plenty of parking for the number of teams and games going on. Always a good thing. And the parking lot was nicely paved and laid out. There were some trees around which helped as I sat in their shade and waited for the team to warm up before playing - like waited 1.5 hours in the 95+ degree temps. I learned quickly that the building above the softball fields was a gym - and it was open. It was also air conditioned and had nice restrooms available. I had made this my place to hang out between games for the coming days. However, with the rain that arrived, that was never needed. The fields are nicely laid out in a quad with concessions and restrooms in the center. Restrooms were kept in order and concession prices were fair. (Especially having been to see the Braves play the night before and paid 2.5 times as much for a soda!) There were bleachers on each side which I also appreciate. While I have a super comfortable chair that folds up - it is heavy to carry. And I also have a very nice bleacher cushion with a back rest. It is MUCH easier to tote around and is perfectly comfortable for a game - but not much longer. Fields were in good shape and the proper fencing and netting was in place. Dugouts looked OK, too - although I did not actually enter one or view it from the field - only what I saw looking across the diamond. The location of the park was OK, too. Near a Waffle House and gas stations - must haves for last minute needs like water/ice/snacks/etc. The Waffle House was our hang out as waited for the games to cancelled once the rain came. So yes they are very nice fields. But having driven 8+ hours to get here and only getting 2 games in thanks to the rain - it's quite hard to be enthusiastic about the experience at this park. But, I think I am fair giving it four stars. Hope you have better weather than we did if you go here!!

    We had our kids' birthday party at the indoor pool at Rountree Recreation, and unfortunately, I…read morewould not recommend having a party here after the experience we had. The woman overseeing the party area was incredibly rude and confrontational with us throughout the party. Our guests obviously didn't all arrive at the exact same time, so some kids were swimming while others were getting food. We made sure the kids dried off before coming into the eating area, but she repeatedly became upset with us and insisted that the children needed to either ALL be swimming or ALL be eating and could not go back and forth between the pool and party area. It made what should have been a fun, relaxed birthday party feel stressful from the beginning. The most upsetting part involved one of our 11-year-old guests, who wears pants while swimming for religious reasons. She made him get out of the pool because his pants had pockets and told us they were a safety concern because they could "weigh his legs down." We explained that this is how he regularly swims, that he was comfortable and capable in the water, and that this attire was important to him. Instead of handling the situation discreetly and respectfully, it turned into roughly 15 minutes of back and forth while this poor child stood there embarrassed and uncomfortable. My daughter became so upset seeing her friend excluded from her birthday party that she started crying because she felt terrible that he couldn't participate. We eventually got the situation resolved and he was allowed back in, but by then the damage was done. A child should never be made to feel singled out or embarrassed like that, especially over something connected to his religious practices. The entire experience was so uncomfortable that we actually chose to leave before our reserved party time was even over because we were simply done dealing with the hostility. I completely understand that a public pool needs rules, especially when it comes to safety. What I do not understand is why those rules couldn't have been communicated to us respectfully, reasonably, and with some compassion, especially when dealing with children. We came here to celebrate our kids' birthdays and make happy memories with their friends. Instead, we spent a large portion of the party feeling like we were being scolded and monitored, and one of our young guests was made to feel embarrassed and singled out. We will not be returning, and I would strongly encourage other parents considering a birthday party here to ask very specific questions about their party and swim policies before booking.

    My kids took swimming lessons here. Their instructors were Cheryl and Dom. They were both…read moreknowledgeable and patient with the kids. My kids learned a lot in eight lessons. They have taken swimming lessons in the past (not here) however, I didn't feel comfortable in their abilities. With that being said, I recommend this place for lessons. This is a family owned business and they offer summer camp, swim team, as well as lessons. They also use their facilities for birthday parties. They have outdoor pools that are open to the public for a fee and they use their indoor pool for lessons.
