Point Mallard has long been the spot for Decatur and the surrounding areas to congregate, play, and work in the warmer (and sometimes blazing hot) months of the year. Home to the nation’s first wave pool and featuring a lazy river, a beach, a kiddy area, and multiple water slides, it is one of North Alabama’s best places to cool off. Not to mention it’s a top attraction for golf, tennis, ball, and camping! Many of the recreational complex’s devoted employees have headed back to school for the fall and winter months, but they will keep their time at Point Mallard in mind while looking forward to next summer!
