It's been about five years since I last stepped inside the UCF gym, and walking back in brought…read moreback so many memories--once a Knight, always a Knight. The space is still big, clean, and well-maintained, just like I remembered from my student days. I came during the morning in the last week of break before the semester starts, so it wasn't too packed, which made the workout even better. The equipment is solid, the staff are friendly, and there are so many services available for students and alumni alike. It felt good to be back on campus and reconnect with a place that was such a big part of my UCF journey.

Second, if you tell one person they can't bring in a drink, you better tell everyone they can't bring in a drink! I had a drink from the Chick-fil-A next door and was told I wasn't allowed to bring it in. The next 10 people, I kid you not, we're all let in with drinks! Same type of drink I had! Not acceptable...

So, with the membership paid, drop in classes costs an additional $2-$5 per class. No one should complain because of the cheap membership to begin with. Currently offering: Cycling Yoga Core Training Tae Kwon Do karate Artistic Motion Dance Gym with weights Beach volleyball area From the website: The 24,000-square-foot facility includes a fitness room with cardio equipment (treadmills, bikes, ellipticals), a weight room, locker room and showers, two classrooms which can be rented, concession stand and a 12,000-square-foot wood floor gymnasium that can be divided into two side-by-side high school courts. It seems that after school programs are also available. A lot of children flock here for good reason--there are a lot of youth programs here. I am thrilled to live in a place where such options exist. This really makes joining a fitness facility affordable, and for people like me, who are nomads and not around a lot, joining a facility like this really makes good sense.

Decent gym for the money. Has a great mix of cardio machines, all brand new. The weight room I…read morewould not recommend to the more heavy lifting kinda group but is good for those doing resistance training. Don't expect trainers but there are group courses, such as Zumba, held through out the week. Finally, the basketball courts are top notch.

It's not obvious when you drive by what a gem this rec center is out back. I highly recommend taking a nice cup of coffee or iced tea and going around back to sit on the porch. They have ceiling fans, large Adirondack chairs and a fabulous view of Lake Okahumpka and nature. One of my favorite places to read a book or the paper and just relax. There is also a small boardwalk that goes out over the water and a fire pit with chairs. If you live in the Villages and have an ID, you can also borrow the checkers/chess to play on the outside tables or play darts or a video game inside.

It says it has over 10,000 square feet of newly remodeled space. It has many rooms for birthday parties. It has basketball, pickleball an indoor playroom for the kids. It offers classes for adults teenagers and children. It even had a small arcade room. The area surrounding the recreation center is beautiful. Across the street is a large lake/pond with a water fountain with a walking trail. When you pull into this area it has a tree-lined road something you just don't see anymore. The facility had plenty of parking and was very clean and well maintained. It was a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty busy with kids everywhere playing and enjoying the beautiful weather we had that day. I wish we had something like this in Sanford, FL. Good job Port Orange!
