Where do I even begin? There are countless reasons why I love this place. First off, they recently celebrated their 20th anniversary, which meant they upgraded all their equipment – a solid reason to prioritize your health and fitness. My wife is particularly fond of the classes. For someone who isn't naturally athletic, getting them engaged in health-focused activities is a remarkable achievement. She's especially into drum fit and some of the cool evening sessions – I hear they even involve glow sticks! Kudos to them for promoting both physical and mental well-being. They offer a plethora of indoor activities like basketball, pickleball, pool tables, foosball, and even rock climbing. Plus, amenities like a steam room, sauna, and a spacious track for walking make it a comprehensive wellness hub. And let's not forget the racquetball courts and the kids' corner, which starts enrollment at just 18 months – impressive for young parents. The staff here are incredibly friendly and always ready to help with a smile on their faces. The fitness room boasts four large-screen TVs, making workouts on the elliptical or treadmill a bit more entertaining. They also have plenty of sanitizing stations and a hydration station with filtered water – a thoughtful touch. If I had to nitpick, the free weights section is a tad limited. Doubling the space dedicated to free weights would be a great improvement. Overall, the entire establishment is impeccably clean, bright, and welcoming. Parking is a breeze. Admission uses barcode scanning, and they even give you a different colored bracelet each day – a neat organizational touch. Just a heads up, though – the classes are quite popular, so be sure to arrive early if you want to secure a spot. Here's to good health and many more years of enjoying this fantastic facility! Cheers!

Love it there! Not sure why they let court 2 in the racquetball courts be in virtual darkness? It simply needs significant amount of burned out lights replaced. Been in that condition for almost a year! Simply need replacement lights, a lift and someone who cares .

This is a great rec center, with lots to do. Weights, gymnasium, pool, table tennis, racquet sports courts, and my kids make me drive from Tempe just to do the wall climbing. Add in a frizbee golf course and tennis outside, this location is well worth a visit!
