I been to several rec centers during opening its sad to see what's really going on still here.

As residents of Sun City, my husband and I have access to several recreation centers. We have…read morechosen this location as our primary place to go. This recreation center has so much to do! First of all, it's adjacent to the public library of Sun City, which makes it very convenient for us to go get our books and park in the same parking lot as the recreation center. The pool is huge and is set up for laps. There are quite a few swimmers that seem to be doing laps every time we go. Our favorite activity is walking in the lazy river type of swim area . The outdoor Jacuzzi is quite large and also located there. The water is heated in the Lazy River and is salt water so NO chlorine. People of all ages use these to get aquatic exercise. There's a cover over part of it and radio music is playing. Inside there is a huge gym and indoor Jacuzzi. There is also a dedicated room for step aerobics which we attended to day (lots of fun!) Massages are available for an extra fee near the front desk. Outside there are a variety of activities including tennis and a really nice Mini Golf course. Everybody is so nice and welcoming and we've been going early every day for the past 2 weeks. There are many other activities that I have not mentioned but I will add to this as I find out more.

NOW 60 days out we are being told otherwise and with absolutely little care. This low on their part is going to cost us thousands of dollars.

This is a great park to get access to the canal trail which is what I use it for. No issues with people tampering with your vehicle due to the volume of people who frequent the park. You can fish, use the gym, bring your offspring to the play area or get on the canal trail and bike, walk or run.

The grilling setup was probably the nicest I've ever seen for a public park. There were probably 20-30 individual picnic table areas each with their own grill. They also had a covered area with even bigger grills. There were even peacocks walking around! Numerous baseball/softball fields, as well as playground equipment. I would definitely come back here and bring people.

This is one of the three pools that offers children's swim hours from 1p-4p. I wasn't sure what to expect, and I was so thrilled to find that the staff was very welcoming , even saying " We hope more children come today!"nThe pool is salt water and heated. There is also a large Jacuzzi ( Age restriction- must be 16 years old) . Like all the Recreation Centers, the grounds are IMMACULATE. There is also a fitness center, basketball and pickle ball at this location.

Not much for shade parking was easy and free, trails are what you'd expect trails but they were clear of trash and unkept they do look like they are doing phases for upgrades to this particular area.

Tried this place out for my toddler and she loved it. I appreciate that there are a few different…read moretoddler only sections. There is a lot of variety with things to do and it definitely fills up your time. I appreciate the seating around the activities for parents that are just observing. We ended up going back a couple days later and getting the annual membership. A couple gripes. The first time we went in, the people at the counter didn't explain anything to us. I had a bogo coupon that they almost didn't let me use. But they ended up allowing it, didn't explain the time limit or that wristbands, didn't point anything out. I obviously figured it out but it would have been nice to receive some information as first time guests. Also a little annoying that you have to use their grip socks. I specifically have grip socks for my daughter for different bounce places so I brought them but was told I had to buy them from them for $5. It's $5.49, actually, that I saw on the receipt. All grip socks are the same.
