Plano has some amazing recreation centers. Even though I don't live in Plano, I make the effort to drive there once a week now to go swimming. They have several recreation centers with indoor pools. The one at Oak Point is the closest to me, so go here even though my membership is good at all of Plano's recreation centers. The first time I tried this out, I bought a one month pass for $33. That's the cost if you are not a resident of Plano. After enjoying my weekly experience swimming here, I decided to invest in an annual membership. It's over $200 for non-residents, but since my city doesn't have an indoor pool available year round for residents, this is my only option. This is an olympic sized pool, but the lap lanes are lined for the short course of 25 yards instead of the long course of 50 yards. Thank goodness because I'm horribly out of shape. I love that when I come, I can usually split the lane with someone. It's rarely crowded, and plenty of people are lucky enough to get a lane to themselves. There is usually a lane reserved for water walking. Sometimes there are other activities that take place and many of the lanes are closed for reserved groups like swim team or water aerobics classes. This pool also features a deep end with a diving board. On the other side, there is a jungle gym obstacle course pool area. Off to the side is a shallow toddler pool. Outside there are two more pools! One of the outside pools has a shore entrance and periodically a horn sounds to let you know that some wave action is about to start. The two outdoor pools are popular with kids and families. During the summer months, the outdoor pools are open every day. After Labor Day, I think they are only open on the weekends. My membership allows me access to other Plano recreational facilities. Also, there is a gym inside Oak Point with free weights, weight machines, and cardio equipment like treadmills. I haven't even been into the gym yet. Not sure I ever will. I'm just so happy to be able to swim year around in the indoor pool. read more

This is impressive! Pool with water park, nice multipurpose facility, ample parking, trails, and was perfect for a triathlon event! This is great for all no matter if you are on wheels, cane, foot, or being carried! Excellent job Plano! read more

I love Oak Point! The pool is really nice, though it gets hopping on weekends and weekends. Expect to share a lane most times. The showers near the pool area also don't get the warmest. These are overall minor issues. The weight area is well stocked for a gym of that size. The memberships are super affordable. I like that your membership gets you into all the Plano rec centers. Discounts for Plano residents or those who work in Plano. They have a rock climbing area, indoor track, pool, table tennis, events, classes, and more. I also appreciate that the radio they play here has family friendly music unlike some gyms I've visited. This area also connects to a jogging/ biking trail going to Oak Point/ Bob Woodruff. It's a great launching point for an active adventure! read more

Love this facility. It's reasonably priced, very clean, staffed with helpful and friendly people and it has great equipment for our use. The inside track is great for walking as you can watch the games played below and not get bored. We are very lucky to have this great facility. read more

What an amazing facility, now open for its first year. Can't imagine the cost to build and maintain this facility. No wonder our taxes in Plano are so high. Outdoors there are cabanas that you can rent for $25 resident $35 nonresident. There is a water park for the kids. There is a lazy river like section where you can just float on inner tubes. And, there is an adult lap pool. Rivals most resorts. Indoors they have a huge 50m indoor pool and locker rooms. Cost of a membership is around $20 a month or get a one day pass for $6. Cheap, cheap, cheap for the value you'll receive. read more

I coincidentally found out about this place when driving by and saw the reviews that they have a nice pool. I wanted to learn how to swim, so I signed up for the monthly membership with my boyfriend. What they offered was more than a swimming pool! I was impressed with the facility, the giant pool, the service-- and they even have a workout room with exercise machines, ping pong tables, and a basketball court! For $19/month, this place is great! You can also visit other recreation centers in Plano with the membership, like their waterpark or other pools. I like the hours and everything is kept clean. The locker room is super clean, and the exercise equipments have paper towels and spray clean so you can wipe after using. Very worth the price! read more

Overall, a nice place, been a member a few weeks. I've never seen staff in the weight/cardio rooms at all. It seems no one is checking the weight / cardio rooms to keep patrons from lounging on weight equipment while perusing social media (happens all too often) or monitoring for children using equipment without adults (yes, it's happening--or as this morning, the adult just watches as the child runs from station to station and plays) or to replacing weight plates (just as in every gym I've ever seen, lazy people leave bars loaded instead of stripping them). Today I'm wondering how often the weight area is cleaned. I thought it looked really good (they want patrons to wipe down equipment after using it) but how often do paid staff actually clean?) but today I'm not too sure. Lots of space to spread out, ample cardio options, fantastic, large pool. Outdoor pool and play area looks great. read more

Outdoor pool up and running see photos. Lap pool (25 yds) available for adults if indoor pool too crowded. Lots of kids getting swim lesson or practice for competition. Cabanas available for rent. read more

Very fund of this recreational center. It is worth becoming a member. The pools are great, and now with summer the outdoor pool is open. We loved it. We are joining some classes soon. read more

Gorgeous pool for free swim with price at check in. I would highly recommend not wasting your energy and time waiting for swim classes for your kids. We waited for 6months because they said swim classes were packed. Finally I was over it. Aquatots have swim lessons for kids and it's a designed school for swimmers. I'm beyond frustrated with Plano recreational for the wasted time and energy of trying for MONTHS to get my kids swim lessons read more

Played pickleball there 4 times as guest. 3 courts and a paddle stack system for next up. A lot of newer players but somewhat friendly other players. Facility is really really nice. Really friendly staff. 9$ for 3 hrs of pickleball. Parking is plenty. A lot of people walking on the track above the courts. read more

The new wave pool feature is fun for the kids. They have an indoor slide area, and there's all kinds of workout activities and classes to check out. It's a beautiful sprawling space. read more

Great place for families! We have the family membership and use it often. They have access to the new pool and enjoy using the basketball and racquetball courts. We've taken classes here as well and they are nicely organized. Only thing is some stuff has age restrictions like the weight room. Be mindful when taking your kids! read more

Great trail with multiple paths. Beautiful lake in the center. Great for any type of weather condition.

I've lived in Plano a LONG time. Sadly I never really took advantage of everything available...well that changes now. haha. Came in to check the place out after purchasing an annual membership and was greeted by two very helpful people at the front desk. Quickly verified who I was and got me my access ID card so I can now enjoy this center and the several others around Plano. Love that there is both an indoor and outdoor pool, as well as the walking track above the gym/basketball area. Parking is easy and can get a bit full, but there should be room. Look forward to being a regular and maybe having less of me around. read more

I especially like the City of Plano's Oak Point Recreation center as it has around 16 dedicated lap lanes in the indoor pool. I like to swim and this is a place where you can swim your laps and typically get a lane to yourself. The outdoor pool is great for kids. It has a basketball court. Oak Point Recreation Center Pools Admission: $6 adults (17+), $3 youth (3-16) Summer Public Swimming Hours 1pm-5:45pm Mon-Fri Indoor Leisure Pool 1pm-8pm Mon-Fri Outdoor Pool 1pm-5:45pm Sat Both Pools 1pm-5:45 pm Sun Both Pools Summer Lap Swimming Hours 5am-7:45am Mon-Fri Long Course (50M)* 8am-Noon &1pm-9:45pm Mon-Fri Short Course (25Yds.) 8am-Noon Sat Long Course 1pm-6:45pm Sat Short Course 1pm-5:45 pm Sun Short Course read more

I love this place! So glad they added a squat rack in the last renovation. It's truly a hidden gem of Plano.

Very family friendly. I recommend it to all Plano household or even for other neighboring town. You membership have access to all Plano Recs. Love it here! read more

I have held several kids' birthday parties here now and feel like I could write a separate 5 star review about each one. Today, my 6 year old boy had his gymnastics party there. The price cannot be beat and the staff was fantastic. The facilities are well maintained and have everything you could want for a party - trampolines, foam pit, ropes to swing on, and plenty of gymnastics equipment. Prior to the party, they send a questionnaire in order to tailor the activities to your wants. All 3 coaches were so hard working and energetic and even made setup so easy for me. Parties can be scheduled at 2 or 4 pm on Saturdays. The 4 pm kids get to take leftover balloons. Last year, we rented out the entire indoor pool a combined kids' party. Pool has slides and diving boards, prices are very reasonable, and again, the lifeguards on staff were fantastic. read more

Y'all don't know how spoiled y'all are. I grew up going to the local recreation center in South Irving, TX. I can safely say that I truly started from the bottom and now I'm here. The machines are well maintained, the pool lanes are outstanding, and there are plenty of other activities. The City made a great effort in providing what the residents really want for the space. read more

This place is so nice after the remodel. I swim laps in the indoor pool a few times a week. Love the amount of lifeguards on duty and how they always have a great attitude. read more

Great place to work out and spend time with the family!

They have treadmills, bikes, elliptical runners, free weights, weight machines, track, pool, basketball for a little over a hundred dollars a year and the facility was recently remodeled. It is really well done. I like it as well as the big clubs. They should add in a sauna. The equipment is all new. The place is clean. You can take classes on things from guitar to swimming. I can recommend it to anyone. read more

I moved to Plano from NJ in September 2017 and I am absolutely amazed what Plano offers its residents. This would be a dream come true in many other states in the U.S. I'm sure. For $20 / month, for an individual person you have access to all of Plano's recreation centers and boy, what a treat. I live close to Oak Point Recreation Center and it's so impressive! Clean, fresh, amazing pool area, nice machines, clean locker rooms, game room, indoor running track, nice view of some of the park in the work-out room, etc. Wow! What more can one ask for? I love Plano and truly think that I hit a gem in the U.S. by moving here from N.J. Further, the staff is always helpful and kind. Kudos! It's true what they say, Texas loves it big and better and I salute the City of Plano for making this town an amazing town to live in. I don't want to move. Not only about the recreation centers but everything Plano has to offer, e.g. parks, festivals, shopping, restaurants, affordable housing (in some areas), growing economy, diversity, safety, great Police Department (I graduated from the Citizens Policy Academy school). It's just pure wow! Plano sets a very high bar for other cities across the U.S. I applaud you Plano! read more

Opening times on weekends are inconvenient unless you've got nothing else to do. Be aware that local for profit swim clubs, as well as various other swim groups have scheduled priority on swim lanes. Some mornings they will have 75% of the swim lanes reserved for their sessions. Sometimes it's hard to get in a session before one of the lifeguards places a reserved cone on your lane and you have to cut the workout short, but it is what it is. On the whole though it's a great rec. center. read more

After moving from LA to Texas, this place is 10 min away from our apartment. I wanted to enroll my girls (4 and 8) for swim lessons. My ONE star is for the preschooler program; it is about a particular guy in charge (of preschool kids) - the one that always wear a red shirt. Anyway, tried to get him to explain the family restroom rule s but he was really rude about it. The facility only has one family restroom with two showering area. It was explained that only parent with opposite sex kid over 3 can use that restroom due to the limitations. There are many new parents enrolling each session taking the same sex of kids as them in there. I asked the instructor to go in and explain because many kids were shivering waiting for the two showers. Instead, their parents could have taken them to the male or female side which has many more showers available. He just told me NO that he is not going in there to clarify. Very uncaring,rude and immature to be put in charge of that section in my opinion. Several time I see him flirting with the new girl instructors before starting of the class. Those girls were very inexperienced and always have no idea how to teach compared to other Plano aquatic facilities. The 6-12 years old groups, however, was more organized. The directors were more mature and caring. Instructors in charge of that group also are more experienced and able to really 'teach' the kids compared to the other side. read more

Took my daughter Tiffany and son Jackson here this past summer and they had so much fun on the big slide. Shoutout to lifeguard Natalie, she was so kind. read more

Great place for beginner swimmers and small children. Only $3 per person. A kid friendly slide, splash pads and a bigger slide for the more adventurous. read more

No tank tops in a gym? Bummer. Super low monthly rate if you live in Plano though. Small track with slopes in it. But again, really cheap.
