    AGE DISCRIMINATION!…read more One thing I really don't like is that they cut off the student discount at age 25. I am currently enrolled in a masters degree program where they recommend you do not work to focus on school, so us students are on a budget for sure. One of my fellow classmates introduced me to this gym, and we wanted to sign up but since she is 26, they would not let her get the student discount. This is ensuring that I also will not sign up, even though I am under 25, as I think that is totally not fair! Before we found out that she cannot get the student discount, we came in on a guest pass to check out the gym. I wasn't a huge fan. For the price they charge I expected better. The basic membership is $50 a month. I do like that they have group fitness classes as well as a pool. I'd say this is worth it if you really enjoy the racquetball and tennis facilities they have, otherwise just go to any other gym that would be cheaper.

    The positives 1. a nice indoor and outdoor tennis facility…read more2. Decent weight and workout area The Negatives 1 New staff is usually poorly trained on the computer system 2. Maintenance is lacking- screens between courts have had holes in them for 9 months, clay courts constantly have moss growing in corners and edges as they are never swept(public courts at Ashton Part are much better maintained), staff does not really care about members input. 3. When something gets fixed it always seems like a gum and string replacement. Indoor court curtains were replaced but are poorly fitted. Now replacing screens between indoor courts but the replacements are too short. In Canada they call this cheap and cheerful solutions.

    Hello, I hope that this will be taken seriously, in hopes that this never happens to anyone else…read more Since Helene destroyed our local Canton park we wanted to give the Waynesville Recreation pool. I called the day prior to get all the information I could gather, checked the website since we have not been in over a decade. The receptionist gave me all the information, dates, times, pricing, and and temperature of the pool. I asked if there was still a kiddy pool working with buckets, slides, splash area etc. and I was told yes. The next day we were very excited and happily payed our fee to enter.As we walked passed the 1st life guard posted at the shallow end of the deep pool we smiled and found a spot near the slide as we knew that was what our son was going to be the most excited about. We got our son in his swim vest for safety and goggles and off he went down the slide. All of a sudden I see a young blonde lifeguard running around the Side of the slide saying "NO NO NO!". My husband and I smiled and said "Its ok we are right here and he's safe (Thinking she was worried he was alone since we didn't even see her from where she was sitting)". My son was already coming down the slide when she was yelling at him, (He's autistic and doesn't always understand things or respond to others well). He made it down no problem and was swimming to get out when she said "we do not allow swim vest or life jackets on the slide!" I asked "why?" And she responded with "because of the bolts on the slide they can get hung up and get hurt." I Replied " so there are bolts sticking out on a toddlers waterslide? I think you should be more concerned with that cutting and hurting someone if thats the case, not be concerned with a protective swimming vest." She replied "Well he's to small to ride" I was confused since I called asked and check the website and the slide is on the kiddie pool. I said "ok" as my husband is trying to regulate our son and explain things to him but he just wants to slide. By this point there are only 2 life guards for both pools and my son won't stop trying to slide. I carry him over to her hoping if he hears it from someone else that he's not allowed it will help. It did not! I then am very upset that was the whole reason for coming and anyone with autistic children or any kids understand if you tell them something fun your going to do but then have to tell them they can not its never fun. I ask the girl if I can sign a waiver or anything to allow him to slide, she says"no" I ask can he take of his vest and slide and ill be at the bottom to help catch him if he needs it ( He's a very good swimmer for his age) to which she responded "parents are not allowed to stand at the bottom and help there child". I was blown away buy this since we have been going to canton pool, and Dollywood splash country where kids can wear the life jackets, swim vest, or floats on any slide and parents were always at the bottom to help catch them as well since its all about safety when around water! Well, expect here at Waynesville rec. center. I was upset by this point and asked her what and where are these rules since I was not informed.?" She says "its on the back of the slide". Again I was upset and said " well that a horrible place for rules against a back wall on a slide that not every sees until your back here, also I was not told this and just so you know for the future maybe you all could post your rules on the website and tell them when they call so this doesn't happen to other special needs family and regular families to! I could tell she was uncomfortable so I simply asked what would happen if he did go down the slide (as he can be a runner)? She said " I would ask you to leave" I said "ok" and walked away. So for reference and refresh you can call and check the website where these rules are NOT posted or come in pay inside change enter at the opposite side of the pool area walk always to the back wall behind the side, and on the back said you see this weird outdated slide rules. By this time I was wondering why no one was on the slide and its because you have to be 48 inch tall but not over a certain weight, no parents are allowed on the slide, parents cannot catch kids at the bottom, and no life jackets or vest are allowed. These rules do the opposite of keeping kids in the kiddie pool safe. And again you can go to canton pool, Dollywood splash country or many other water parks or pools and they encourage you to put vests on your child and stay close to your child in water. By this point there are a good amount of ;little kids in the kiddie pool I would say about 10 to 15 and more kids in the bigger pool about 10 as well and only 2 life guards. I'm sorry but I'm not going to rely on a lifeguard to see everything in a pool. But none the less we kept trying to explain it to our son and play in the kiddie pool and enjoy the best we can. Our son was having a melt down and other parents in the pool understood what was happe

    We just moved to the area and took a tour of the recreation center here. We will be joining the gym…read moreafter Covid issues get better. They have the main staples of indoor pool, workout equipment, racket ball courts. It clean and people are very friendly. We use the outdoor grounds a lot. Our main use is the dog park. There is a small dog park and a large dog park. We are in the small dog area. The disc golf court runs past the dog areas which is cool. There is a great skateboard park that lots of young people use, even on bikes. Lots of paved pathways. I love that the pathways attract older and young people. And, the path runs alongside The bold creek. It is more like a small river. It is filled with trout should you want to fish. Definitely a major asset to our town!

    I have been using this facility for at least 5 years. It has a a very nice 50 meter pool for lap…read moreswimming. When that is too busy or I have my kids with me, I use the 25 meter/yard therapy pool. At the time of this review, I have been paying for 3 visits at a time-- am not paying for the year. This is first and foremost a pool for lap swimming and swimming lessons. The gym is secondary and small. The playground is open to everyone but still managed by Greenville County. The last time I was there, one slide was broken/taped off. The schedule for use of the two pools is posted every week online. If you don't check that schedule, you may arrive to find the facility having a swim meet or closed. Over the years, the schedule has improved in its readability. Remember that if lightning is in the area, they have a (45 minute?) pause on swimming. That could close the facility early. They occasionally have a new person working the front but the facility is usually managed very well. For a person new to the community, just ask for help-- its a big facility.

    We were here for a cardboard boat race competition. The facility was clean and well kept. Lots of…read moreparking and numerous handicapped spaces. Bleachers were well spaced with sufficient handrails to help you feel secure as you ascended the steps. I only saw one aspect of the center so can't really give a good perspective. It was a cold, rainy day but this place was TOASTY! Toasty enough that I quickly shed my rainwear and then my light jacket. And that's about all I can report.
