Very nice pool, a bit older construction but still, very nice. A lot of natural light and staff is also super nice:) highly recommended.

Employees are nice but I am given incorrect times that the basketball court will be open for open gym when I call. It is almost always taken up by pickleball and other classes, it needs more open gym hours a correct times given by employees. It’s very annoying. I’m sorry but, it’s the truth.

The dudes that play around here are drunks and someone needs to do something about them drinking and driving! Especially when they have children around (not that it should matter). Apparently, lots of boys try playing basketball drunk and think that's smart. It's a huge liability for y'all.

I wholly recommend doing personal training with Christian Matigan: After training with him through the summer and fall, I am stronger and far more confident navigating the weight room. Thanks Christian!
