I recently became a member of this gym and have been very disappointed with my experience so far. I…read morebring my younger son to the gym so he can play basketball, but the courts are often dominated by older men who take up the space for extended periods of time. Unfortunately, things frequently get heated, with verbal exchanges and behavior that feels like it could escalate into physical altercations. In the six weeks I've been coming here, at least four of those weeks have involved some type of incident on the basketball court that caused people to rush over to address an issue. This has made the environment feel unsafe, especially for children. I do not feel comfortable allowing my son to be in the facility without me present. Today was especially disappointing. Our side of the court was following the rules and not involved in any issue, yet we were told to leave because the gym was closing 10 minutes early. A manager approached us abruptly without any apology or acknowledgment of the inconvenience, which felt very disrespectful. The gym itself remained open, but the entire court was shut down, and there was no advance notice of the closure. I did speak with the manager, who stated this is their policy whenever there is an altercation. However, given how frequently these situations occur, this policy feels poorly managed and unfair to members who are not involved in any wrongdoing. Additionally, the overall customer service has been lacking. Very few staff members appear welcoming or engaged, and the experience today highlighted a lack of professionalism and empathy toward members. I would like to enjoy the services this gym offers, but the recurring altercations, lack of communication, inconsistent enforcement of rules, and poor customer service make it difficult to feel safe or valued as a member.

So happy to have discovered this wonderful alternative to national chain gyms in the area!…read more They have all of the basic equipment (treadmills, elliptical, weights) as well as group aerobics classes like Zumba. In addition to exercise, the rec is always buzzing with community activities like arts festivals, kids karate classes and Senior dance lessons. You can also rent space there for parties and family gatherings at a really low rate. The only drawbacks would be the weekend hours (they don't open until 1pm on Sundays) but I can deal with that given the dollars saved by switching our gym membership to the rec center.

We come to this park almost every day to walk or jog on the trail and then play a bit at the…read moreplayground. There is a splash pad here which is open during summer months and is well maintained. We usually see someone out cleaning the splash pad area every day before it opens. Police also patrol the trails which is nice. We usually go in the mornings in summer months before it's too hot and there are always plenty of other moms with strollers and plenty of joggers as well. The trails are very well maintained and clean. There are benches every now and then so you can stop and sit down. Ample shade! I would recommend during summer months, if you're going to walk or jog the loop (a little over a mile) go towards the soccer fields first as the sun will mostly be toward your back and then once you loop around you'll be shaded almost the entire time. There are restrooms near the playground but we've found from time to time they are closed. ‍ the playground area is quite nice and has a little bit for nearly every age. There are two toddler swings at this playground, a nice rock climbing type wall, plenty of slides and a cool musical wall! The soccer fields are very well maintained , as are the basketball courts, sand volleyball pits, and tennis courts. The amphitheater is a very nice area to visit during concerts in the park, just make sure you get there early to find a good seat. This is also a great place to take family pictures during fall!

If you are eager for clean outdoor space, this park is a nice find within the Forney city limits…read more There are lots of sitting spaces and a place for kids to play and enjoy an active lifestyle rather than sit at home playing video games all day long or browse endless hours on the internet. I recommend this park for those eager to explore the outdoors.
