The staff was very nice and there were plenty of lifeguards keeping close watch. The outdoor pool area consisted of - Large pool section that went from 3+ feet to 5 feet - 13 foot area with a diving board - Lazy river - 2 water slides About 40% of the area where you can sit is shaded (either trees or a canopy). I can tell that people came early to snag those spots. It's a very nice and well maintained facility. One thing to be aware of is that there is no re-entry. So make sure you bring everything from the car you need the first time. There is plenty of parking. Overall we had a great time and next time we will go closer to the time they open to get a shady spot.

I am so glad we decided to become members at Robinhood in 2015! I really wanted the neighborhood…read morepool experience for my son, like I had growing up. The club has a real community feel, it's exactly what we were looking for. The pool is tucked away within the Sherwood Forest Neighborhood; a few blocks from Westover Elementary School. There is so much to do at Robinhood, we find ourselves there even when it's not quite warm enough for swimming. Take your pick from the tennis court, beach volleyball, basketball court, or ping pong table. Through the grassy field with the big tree is more fun with a playground set complete with swing and slide, frisbee golf, and tetherball. After checking in at the front desk, you enter the club through the separate "locker" rooms where you will find changing areas with curtains, bathroom stalls, showers, and cubbies. Exit through here and you see the expanse of the swimming pool and all it has to offer! Diving boards, water slide, lap lanes, pool basketball, and lots more. There is a baby pool for the little ones neighboring the play-area. The shallow end is great for the kids as they're getting more comfortable in the water. When the staff turns the fountains on here it's even more fun! The property has tons of space to spread out; picnic tables, umbrella patio tables, lounge chairs, covered pavilions, or just spread out a blanket or towel. Your family can participate in swim lessons, numerous social events (for grown-ups and kids!), bbqs, movie nights, etc. The pool office doubles as the "snack bar" where they have crunchies, ice cream, and drinks for purchase. We like to bring a picnic lunch or have Dominoes deliver dinner. The staff is there to keep everyone safe and they do a great job. We follow the rules but always ask if we have questions. Come by and check it out for yourself, it's a great investment in your summer! See you there on Memorial Day weekend.

I had a very unpleasant experience at this LA Fitness location recently that left me feeling…read moreembarrassed and singled out by the manager Stacy. I drove about 30 minutes out of my way that morning to attend a yoga class with Kasturi, which was wonderful and absolutely the highlight of my visit. Unfortunately, the experience I had at the front desk before the class was the opposite. I brought my sister with me as a guest as I've done since 2022. My membership allows me to bring guests, and I've done so before without any issues. However, the manager, Stacy, immediately accused us of sharing a membership. This was not true and was honestly embarrassing to be accused of in front of other people. My sister was asked to sign a liability waiver, which is completely understandable. She simply asked to read the waiver before signing it. When she asked if it could be printed so she could read it more easily, she was told that wasn't possible. When I tried to take a photo of the waiver on the screen so we could read it, I was accused of taking a picture of the staff and was told I needed to leave the gym. I've never had an experience like this at any other location since starting my membership years ago. At one point the manager became visibly angry, slamming items on the desk and aggressively pushing the check-in machine toward my sister. She was extremely aggressive and rude. I was also asked to prove that I hadn't taken photos of staff by showing my phone, which I did. Nothing inappropriate was found. The entire interaction was loud, confrontational, and very uncomfortable. I've been a member of LA Fitness for years and have never experienced anything like this at any location. I've never encountered such a lack of professionalism and display of aggression from a staff member before. Again, the yoga class with Kasturi was great and worth the drive, but the front desk interaction made the start of the visit extremely stressful and embarrassing. I hope management looks into how situations like this are handled in the future, because members shouldn't feel accused or publicly embarrassed when simply trying to check in with a guest.

From the moment we approached the desk, we were immediately accused of sharing a membership, which was completely untrue. The interaction felt confrontational right away. When I was asked to sign a guest waiver, I simply requested to read it before signing and asked if it could be printed. I was told it could not be printed. When we tried to take a photo of the waiver on the screen so I could read it more carefully, Stacy accused us of taking a picture of her and escalated the situation further. She demanded to see my sister's phone, including her recently deleted photos, despite there being no photo of her taken. I tried to assure her that "No one wanted a picture of her on their phone" but she still insisted to see my sister's personal photo archives. Once my sister showed Stacy her photo long, both recent and deleted that's was when she was finally able to move past accusing my sister of taking her photo. The exchange became loud and tense, and items were being slammed on the desk during the interaction. It felt hostile and unnecessarily aggressive for what should have been a routine guest check-in. The yoga class itself was wonderful and worth the drive, but the front desk experience was embarrassing and uncomfortable enough that it overshadowed the visit. I hope management takes steps to ensure guests and members are treated with professionalism and respect.
