What People Are Saying
“Great place to get some hoops in after work. The courts are clean and there's usually enough people for a pickup game. Can't beat the price for residents.”
“I've been coming here for volleyball twice a week. The facility is well-maintained and the staff is friendly. Love that my fitness pass includes open gym access.”
“Good community rec center with solid basketball courts. Can get crowded on evenings and weekends, but that's expected. The extended hours during the week are really convenient.”
