There's an indoor pool, outdoor pool, hot tub, splash pad, steam rooms, a weight room, gym, indoor track, an outdoor trail, disk golf, raquetball courts, soccer fields, and most darn impressive pickleball facility I have ever seen. I live in Iowa-- I have never seen something like his. There are about 24 courts that are Individually fenced and completely covered. We had a blast! Talk about amazing free entertainment. They even have lights available for night play! Parking is a non-issue. Bathrooms are accessible. 10/10 would recommend! What a fabulous community resource.

A whole lot here to get excited about, basketball, exercise room, racket ball, kids activities and fitness classes. They also offer children's programing. What I can get most excited about is being a local to Auburn. Residents passes are an incredible $25 lifetime swipe key. Only if you loose them is it an additional fee. I most certainly believe there is a missed opportunity for visitors to enjoy. Currently if your not a resident no access to permitted. Let's just say I had a bit of an in to utilize with no residency and leave it at that. I told you this would be short and sweet. If your a resident of Auburn get your swipe card and enjoy all there is to offer by your city recreation center.

I spent the summer in Auburn working and was looking for a crossfit gym. NGL when I saw the website…read moreI was a little intimidated even though I've been doing crossfit for a few years (better yesterday...though lol). However, the first class I had with Nathan was incredible. This place is not only an excellent facility--spcaious, clean, lots of equipment, circulation--but the coaches...it's the coaches for me. My technique in squats, snatches, kipping pull-ups and even rowing improved tremendously. I can't say enough about Nathan, Autumn, and Aubrey. They really break down the movements to help you improve all-around. It's also a gym for everyone--age, fitness level, etc. There are three tailored levels for each workout, which for me is very helpful as I'm often in the middle. The classes weren't too crowded, either, but I'd bet it can get quite busy during the semester. I was proud to call this place home for over 2 months and will definitely be returning whenever I'm in town!

I came to do a drop in here as I was visiting town. I'm so glad I did! Not only was it a warm and…read morefriendly environment but the space is outstanding, the equipment fantastic and it was so clean and tidy. The owner and head coach was incredibly welcoming and we felt right at home. I wouldn't hesitate to go back and recommend this gym to any crossfitter visiting Auburn!

She worked with me 1:1 to help me deal with chronic pain and fatigue caused by scoliosis. If you deal with chronic pain, I highly recommend trying her private sessions. I am able to use the techniques she taught me in my everyday life and have noticed a huge improvement in my pain and stress levels. She's also an excellent teacher and is equipped to help you through some of life's toughest challenges through yoga therapy and breathing techniques. Her calming techniques and her ability to listen are truly life changing when it comes to reducing stress and making wellness a bigger focus in your life. She can also work with you virtually, which makes it easier than ever before to book sessions with a busy schedule.

My fondest memories are of my young son swimming with Auburn Alum, Olympic medalist and TV commentator Rowdy Gaines at a week long camp directed by former Auburn Head Coach Brett Hawke. Parking can be a challenge for visitors. The closest areas are reserved for faculty and students. There is parking in the nearby football lot. The facility although dated to the mid 90's is in great condition. The primary pool and diving well is for Auburn swim and dive team. However, faculty and students can use the pool. The spectator area is marvelous and spans the entire length of the pool and well. The Olympic size pool is 50 meters with movable bulkhead, platform diving and well. The aquatic complex consist of approximately 145,000 gallons of swimming capability. The Long Course pool has eight lanes for competition with depths of 7-8 feet for greater speed. The facility is maintained to high standards and immaculate. Auburn is a fabulous city with the Auburn campus meshing into one big happy community. War Eagle!
