I'm a 42 year old male traveling for business and visited the Steve Lundquist Aquatic Center at the…read moreJim Huie Recreation Center this past Tuesday. I was looking for a reliable place to swim and work out since I'll be in this area regularly. This place is not it. I called ahead specifically to ask about swimming, and at no point was I told the pool would be unavailable. When I arrived, the pool was completely taken over by a swim class, making lap swimming impossible. That kind of poor communication is unacceptable and shows a lack of basic consideration for patrons' time. The weight room was just as bad. Multiple benches had visible sweat stains, making it obvious the equipment had not been wiped down after previous use. In a fitness facility, basic cleanliness isn't optional, it's the bare minimum. The bathrooms were absolutely filthy. Not "a little messy," but dirty enough to make you question how often they're cleaned at all. Between the unsanitary conditions and the disorganization, the entire facility felt neglected. I was hoping to find a dependable gym for future business trips, but this was a one and done visit for me. If you care about cleanliness, clear communication, or a professional environment, I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere. This facility needs serious improvements before it should be charging people to use it.

This place is amazing! It is very large and can handle large groups of people. They also have lots…read moreof activities going on at the same time. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Great Aquatic Center which has facilities for a great swim with 3 different swim pools, to play basketball as well as gym area for nice working out. Fees are very nominal. Clayton County residents pay $3, while non-county residents pay $5 for most activities per day. Also, you can take a monthly/yearly memberships. They also offer a variety of classes that folks can participate in from swimming lessons to kickboxing. Plenty of free parking as well. To find out all of the various programs available, please call the center/visit directly because they change very frequently as per the season. Great place to take kids throughout the year. They are open 6 days and week, Monday thru Friday 8 AM to 9 PM, Saturday 9 AM to 6 PM and Sundays closed. At the swimming pool, the water temperature was nice and warm. However, I was really excited to find this place, and on my side of town. The shower area was really clean and adequate number of lockers they had, which I appreciated. It's nice place to swim and practice some backstrokes. I have been here for the first time and love to swim here. Also it's very inexpensive if you live in the area, bring your ID/License for entry. There is another area where the water is much warmer, however it's reserved for adults only, no kids or beginners. I am always in this area for my swim practice. It is never too crowded on any given day. The main pool is sectioned off for those who want to do lap swimming. There is also a smaller pool for senior citizens. Supervision of all swimmers is excellent and the watchful eye of the lifeguards keep the swimming experience safe. Steve Lundquist Aquatic Center at the Jim Huie Recreation Center is worth your visit.

No one picked up the phone the few times I tried them and I wasn't even 100% sure they were still in operation. They ARE OPEN and it's a pretty cool place! Browns Mill, like all of the summer water facilities around Atlanta it seems, is run 100% by teenagers. There are advantages (cheap labor) and disadvantages to this (lack of professionalism, lack of consistency on policy; such as letting us in for free after first saying there was no entry at 6:00 when it closes at 7 and then actually closing at 6:45), and general chaos on a busy summer day. Lots of teens running around may or may not be a problem depending on who you are. Why are kids always vomiting in pools? I've seen this at four different facilities this summer and it happened not once, but twice at this pool yesterday. Just lean over and do it in the grass. I suppose it's not fair to evaluate to how often kids are (or are not) vomiting at an aquatic facility but it did mean we didn't get to try some of the main features of this park. It would have been nice if they also put up a sign about not using this sections as we arrived after the first vomiting incident and we only knew not to go in because others were avoiding it but didn't see any visible grossness. My two little ones liked the small lazy river and layout of the place. The pool looked fun but you have to pass a swim test to go to the deep end and this test changed depending on which life guard you asked. Even going in with your kids they just aren't allowed there. They also have a small kiddie pool section and a splash pad section. The two big slides looked fun as well as the kid's water playground. I would make this trip again and even at $7 (advertised local dekalb county residents price) I think it'd be worth the cool down on a hot summer's day.

Overcrowded and the parking was bad. It was if I was being strangled by the chlorine inside the…read morepool area. The pool is basically an outdoor pool with a tent over, a sorry excuse for a swimming environment. To just maneuver around the pool I had to tight rope walk around the edge so that I could dodge the people.
