Several ellipticals; lots of bikes, one stairmaster, and some rowers in basement. They got some new weight machines and a small selection of dumbbells that go up to 50 lb. So no lunks here. The indoor track is big plus too, but the Greeneway is right there so why not just run outside? Also several basketball courts, racquetball, and activity rooms. Even craft room. But just $50/year. Can't beat that :)

A gently sloping lawn flattens out by the river where you can have a picnic, wading in the river, or just enjoy the beautiful scene around you. The views of the river are unbeatable since the clearing forms a small promontory. While it is currently overgrown, the river nature trail head starts at the north side of the clearing. Although it is relatively remote, they still have bathrooms here which are sort of glorified outhouses.

It is usually well-attended and I have not had any safety concerns; it certainly feels better than comparable areas on the other side of the river. There are plenty of bikers, but the trail is generally wide enough not to present any major issues of overcrowding. It's definitely a good way to get a taste of the environment without driving too far from the city.

The grounds were quite pleasant, but I was surprised that many of the water features were not running or seemed not well maintained and rather sludgy.
