We have lived in Castle Gardens for almost 10 years and have belonged to the Castle Gardens Pool…read moreAssociation (CGPA) for 3 years. We absolutely love the pool! While growing up, my family belonged to several swim clubs over the years (and I have visited many others for parties and other things) and none come close to CGPA. Here's what makes CGPA great: Amazing Staff - This pool is well-maintained and well-run. Diving Board and Slide - Need I say more? Outside Food and Beverage (including alcohol) allowed in the pool area. Great Events and Kids Activities - Labor Day Party and Fireworks, Campout, Candy Bar Bingo, Dads Cannon Ball Contest, Swim Lessons, Water Aerobics Snack Bar prices are basically at-cost. The only thing about CGPA that could be improved is the pool stairs. They're not built-in and can be a bit difficult for swimmers with mobility issues. I'd love to see permanent stairs be added to the pool and perhaps one of those lifts that are becoming more and more common at pools.

I'm just gonna make this short and sweet for you :)…read more 5 bucks for a guest?! takes 38283838 years to find a parking spot a kid takes a shit in the pool every 10 mins the snack bar is always out of what you want and it's always crowded omggggg AND If it's raining he life guards won't let you swim cause they can't see you at the bottom of the pool AND they always yell at anyone over the age of 10 in the kiddy pool area but it's a pretty cute pool. the staff is pretty nice and the seating is nice. - A

In general, I have a tough time with indoor pools (California kid problems) where the heavy chlorine gets trapped and circulating, ha. But, Mack is an interesting one - half deep, half shallow & the shallow side (about 3'6" IIRC) gets pretty shallow for me, and then the bulkhead separating the family/kids pool to the main 25 yd pool has holes in it so I've definitely flipped turned and hit the floor and/or stuck my foot against a hole rather than a wall haha.

Check the schedule though especially for weekends or over the holidays. Take note of the movie night offerings too. Have not been to one but hard to resist watching Wonder Woman or Frozen while floating in a big warm pool!

Just a disclaimer: my only experience with this place is for children's swimming lessons, but I…read morethink it's still a valid perspective. We came here for swimming lessons ($39 for a year's worth of community participant status - which allows you to sign up for classes and another $85 for two kids's worth of six weeks sessions) at the beginning of summer 2018. The experience with Miss Kennedy, our swim teacher, for those Thursday nights were so positive and wonderful, we signed up again. Towards the end of summer, we signed up again for the third batch, but this time we found out that the prices were way more (40% more!!) for non-summer classes ($119 for two kids). I thought it was an accounting error and even thought (because I didn't understand the difference between a YMCA membership and a community participant status) that I was a YMCA member. When I found out that wasn't the case, I asked: how much for my family to be members? The answer floored me: $100+ a month. Holy. Crap. Who can afford this? Any full-access gym with these amenities would be a third/half the price, but I suppose the Y's pricing is just common for potential rich folk - we're not in their target market. The pricing issues aside, I love the staff. I love the facility for what it is. We love the family locker room/changing areas. We love the indoor pool/hot tub, simple as it is with a non-working slide, and we even like the outdoor pool.

Was seeking a local gym for classes while visiting the area and came across this place not too far…read morefrom the hotel that we're staying at. So happy I did! Drop in rate is 10.00 per class. A variety of classes are offered 7 days a week but unfortunately this past Sunday's were cancelled due to some special event they had (website's schedule is up to date). To book a class is super easy; choose which class you want and it tells you how many open spots are left. You pay via credit card and receive an email confirmation. Upon arrival you just go to either of the studios where the classes are held. I booked a spin class and the instructor came up to introduce herself and asked my name and said she saw it on her roster. As for the class, it was very good and the instructor (Jill) was super nice and chatted with her a bit after. Facility is very clean and the bikes were in excellent condition. The only con is it is very hard to find as there is no signage indicating where the center is located (you see the theater upon arrival). I stopped and asked what appeared to be some city road/construction workers and one was able to give me directions. Saw the building with a huge parking lot and assumed that was it as I saw some people going in who were in workout gear and carrying gym bags. Once you initially find it you are good to go and know what/where to go.

Beautiful new facility. They refurbished the weight room and have brand new locker rooms. BUT,…read morethe gym is WAY too hot, so hot that I went to renew my membership, went to workout and remembered that the heat was why I stopped going there. They spent all that money on construction but failed to address the heat issue. If you're gonna go twice a day 4-6 times a week, you want to be semi-comfortable, it's nasty in that room especially using weights. With a/c upstairs in the weight room, I would give it 4.5 stars AND renew my membership.
