I wish I had this park in my backyard. It's probably one of my favourite neighbourhood parks in…read moreVancouver. Over the summer, I came here quite often since I happened to be in the area a lot. I had socially distant picnics and also came here to hang out by myself and read. They also had Salty's Lobster Shack posted up here so I could treat myself to some lobster rolls while I enjoyed the sunshine. There is plenty of trimmed grass to lay your blanket on, benches, and shaded areas if it gets too hot. There's also a community garden, a skate park, playground, and basketball court close by. Additionally, there is plenty of street parking if needed. I love me some Mount Pleasant and I love me some Mount Pleasant park!

All I ask of the neighbourhood I call home is for green space, a community garden that induces a…read moreconstant personal guilt trip and some sort of park structure that I'm entertained by after three glasses of bubbly. Mount Pleasant Park seamlessly checks off all three. It's as if the park planners thought as they were laying this out, "Nah, let's not scatter things around to the other parks in the area, let's just jam all the rad stuff into this one particular space." It has... Picnic seating. A basketball court. A playground (with a bubbly approved web climbing apparatus). A community garden. A skatepark (that is a bit noisy, but not in an overly obnoxious way). And plenty of green space to bask in its awesome. On a sunny day, it's delightful. Well done Mount Pleasant.

Also gorgeous facility . I learned that it was over 15 years old and that they built it for the Olympics, but it seemed To be pretty new . Upstairs there's a curling lounge with a full bar and happy hour ! The locals are spoiled and don't even know it ! If you are local check this place out or even if you are visiting out of town you can still sign up for classes and they are very affordable! Check this place out and support your local rec center!

I love the idea of a community centre with multiple facilities. Gym, pool, skating rink, PLUS a…read morelibrary and café -- check, check, check. And it's modern? We love new, up-to-date facilities. I've used all their facilities except for the skating rink (so I like to think I'm a fairly reliable source). You can pay drop-in for gym and/or pool for $7.50 (yep, you can use both facilities in the same day if you want). Gym isn't huge but there are still enough machines/benches/treadmills to go around. You could totally do a full workout without waiting your turn (unless it's after 4 on a weekday, aka peak gym hours everywhere). Pool is one of the best in Vancouver, given that it's new and has a lot of features. A good number of swimming lanes, leisure pools, a lazy river, 3 diving boards, a big hot tub, a sauna (that is not so big) and a steam room. Showers are fine as far as public pool showers go (the curtains don't fully shut but still better than UBC's) and you can bring your own lock for the lockers. I love that there's a library because I can head on over post-workout and enter a different kind of calm, zen mindset as I peruse the shelves. Whose idea was it to attach a library to every community centre (and can we get more of that, please!)? There will always be something to gripe about with every community centre (sometimes there are way too many people in one swimming lane and I'm not sure why they don't open up another), but as far as Hillcrest goes, it has a lot to offer. A really great place to hit up all the facilities in one stop, or to bring the kids along for a fun-filled, athletic and/or academic weekend. Also, the staff is GREAT and so kind. Kudos to them!

Play Palace. That's what this place becomes from late April to the end of summer (Labour Day)…read more A giant indoor inflatable park for kids. Two bouncy giant slides, two other bouncy inflatables, for toddlers and up, a mini obstacle course for toddlers, a sectioned off area for ride on cars, basket ball hoops, and ping pong tables. Lots to do for kids, albeit socks can get pretty dirty, so bring an extra pair. Concession machines nearby along with a limited number of kiddie picnic tables near the entrance. McDonalds right across the alley, so you can bring in a Happy Meal and eat at the picnic tables. Doesn't get too hot in here, even on a 30 deg summer day. Highest price for admission is $5 per child from 6-12 years old, younger children are less. Ample free parking at the north side of the building.

This is a kids paradise. Well when I walked in, I found the place a bit run down and dirty. So I…read morewas like this place is eeky. But again kids are here for fun and not caring about the other things. Apparently this place is a popular birthday party place. They have bouncy castle and basket ball hoops and a ping pong table. Wow they sure know how to turn the place is to a fun paradise. I mean just being a skating arena, I don't think they can do so well. I am surprised how much parents are willing to spend on kids. Spoiled kids!! The kids sure are having fun. Also there are a few areas that kids above age 6 are not allowed. Parent supervision required.

They are hard to get into (you need quick fingers) since they are very reasonably priced. Free parking lot, but heard that's changing to paid parking this summer :( the front desk is always helpful, they have a cafe in the back for a drink or a quick snack. Twice a year (May and Nov), they have a pottery sale from their members and everything is so reasonably priced!

Gym review: it sucks…read more Good job Vancouver to have probably over million dollar worth of space and budgeting for community center and ice rink, yet you created the worst possible gym space. It makes no sense. There are so many reasons why community centre gyms sucks, besides the reason the steam room doesn't work. I have gym'd all over the world not only in the United States and third world countries like Thailand, Laos, Cambodia. This Trout Lake community centre gym is WAYY too small, it's just one upstairs space. There's a free weight area, 2 smith machines, 4 workout machines, 5 treatmills, 3 elipicticals, 2 rowers. There's an outdoor space where people can do workouts in the fresh air, but have the year you can't use it because rain gets onto it. And of course in Vancouver it rains half a year. There is no vibe here. As you can see in my video, it's dead quiet. You can literally hear ghosts here before hearing people workout. There's no music playing, even elevator music would be better than just silence. Everyone here is on their phone and not putting any energy into working out. I personally try to workout without my phone so I can actually put energy and focus into working out rather than wasting time choosing the next on your playlist. You can pay $7 for a drop in workout, which actually isn't a terrible price. So it's quite affordable, but actually the 50-60/month is totally not worth it when you can go to a different gym like fitness world for half the price. Yea these community centre gyms are incredibly disappointing. Vancouver gets all these tax dollars and this is what they give us back in return. Saddd
