This was a great place to get in a water workout in a warm water pool, which is our favorite…read more We came here to use the pool. They have a lap pool and they also have a warmer pool that includes a lazy river and a couple of lap lanes, along with the children's play area. We were there on a weekday afternoon well swim lessons were going on, but had plenty of space to use one lap lane and the lazy river. They have a set of steps to enter by the lazy river and they have a chairlift that enters into one of the lanes. There's also a hot tub that has steps with a rail to get in. In the family locker room there are two accessible changing rooms with a bathroom and shower, including a shower bench and adjustable showerhead. They have an automatic door opener, which is phenomenal, however, the lock is up pretty high, which makes it less accessible for wheelchair users, and short people. there are two other changing rooms in the family locker space that don't have the automatic button, adjustable showerhead, or shower bench, or grab bars on the toilet, but are still fairly large and have space for a wheelchair user There was plenty of accessible parking and automatic doors to get into the building. The space exiting was pretty tight due to how they have the chairs arranged, somebody with a larger wheelchair may have to exit through the entry lane. We also used the steam room, there was no automatic door, but the door wasn't terribly heavy. We've been to lots of rec centers in the Denver Metro area, and this is definitely one of the most accessible

If you want to play racquetball, you can check out Paddles from the front desk, workout classes upstairs, they even have kids events after hours. If you are working out and have children, make sure to drop them off in the children's pavilion while you work out and then you can take them into the pool, which does include a waterslide and a lazy river. If you want to go swim laps, they do have an open lap pool on the opposite side away from the kid pool, which is nice. There is no outdoor pool, which is the only downfall.

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Liquid Descent. My daughter and I signed…read moreup for the beginner rafting trip... and while she was excited... I was terrified. I was so nervous walking in, but from the moment we arrived, every single staff member made us feel welcomed, safe, and supported. Our guide, Koa, was the perfect balance of fun, kind, and incredibly skilled. He guided us through the rapids with such confidence and ease while also making sure everyone felt safe and included. He checked in on us several times throughout and made sure we were having fun, asked us if we wanted to "spice it up" a bit or keep it mellow and just really let us know this was "our" trip and he's cater to what we wanted. I quickly found myself letting go of fear and enjoying the moment... something I didn't expect would happen. Koa's energy was contagious, and his calm, respectful nature made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. At one point on the river, another rafting company had a mishap and we had to pull over and wait for them to recover and get their riders back into the raft safely. Koa explained what had happened with total grace - no judgment, no gossip - just a calm and respectful explanation. He also spoke so kindly of his own coworkers and even the owner of Liquid Descent. You could tell he genuinely cares about the rafting community and takes pride in his work and LOVES his Liquid Descent family! Every employee we encountered was friendly, encouraging, and helpful - from getting us fitted with helmets and life jackets to cheering us on as we headed out. As someone who started out nervous, that kind of supportive vibe made a huge difference. They encouraged me, and they helped me push past my comfort zone in the best way possible. What a GREAT memory! We will remember this day not only for the thrill of the rapids, but for the kindness and heart of the people who guided us through it! If you are considering rafting in Colorado, go with Liquid Descent. I'm so glad we did!

We were in town for spring break so we wanted to drop by and check it out. We arrived on a Thursday early evening. Red Rocks Amphitheater is located 10 miles southwest of Denver in the beautiful town of Morrison, CO. Parking is accessible all around the amphitheater. There was no concert scheduled that night. We were hoping to catch the sunset but unfortunately we missed it. The lighting was still great for pictures though. We parked by the Upper South Lot. From there it was a moderate 10 minute walk to the south ramp of the venue. During the walk the views of the valley is stunning. Once we made it inside the outdoor amphitheater, I was in awe of the beauty and ambiance of the Red Rocks amphitheater. The majestic backdrop of the red rocks was definitely something I have never seen before for a concert venue. It was unique and beautiful. We were able to start from the bottom of the stage area and make our way to the top. It was a nice workout climbing up the seats steps. From the top, the different angle view of the amphitheater and backdrop was amazing as well. Overall we enjoyed our time exploring Red Rocks amphitheater. It was a one of a kind experience. Unfortunately the visitor center was closed and we did not see a live concert at the venue. We hope to be back again so we can attend a concert.

We rented the Active Adult Center's Prospect Hall for a corporate event and we were so impressed!…read more First of all, Megan was regularly helpful about communicating with us before the event, which really helped with planning. Michelle made sure that she was available to speak to our staff about Wheat ridge's recreational services, and to promote physical wellness resources. The woman who was there in the morning who helped us set up (whose name very unfortunately escapes me) jumped right in and was so proactive you would have thought she was one of our staff members. Eric stayed and helped us clean far and above the duties of his job, and he worked even harder than our own clean up crew. You cannot find a more helpful crew. The space was affordable priced and well-maintained, and they will give you access to any resources they have that can help make your event great. They have an attached kitchen, service entrance, A/V equipment, and a stage that works great for a corporate setting. They give you access to 18 large, oval tables and four long, rectangular tables. There are enough chairs to seat the room's capacity. We had about 110 staff members and had the room equips with vendors and vendor tables. For our needs, he venue was a bit too small. If we did not have vendors it could have seated 110 pretty comfortably, though. Overall, I am incredibly pleased with the staff, space, and accommodations of having rented with the Active Adult Center. Definitely a great choice for a corporate event, anniversary party, or meeting space!

She said that the coat was not in the lost and found.. she went out of her way to go down to where I had lost the coat and called me back again. Still no coat. About 30 minutes later she called me again and said she did have the coat. She put my name on it and I'm going to pick it up when I get back to the Apex center on Saturday. I feel like Monica went out of her way to be kind and thoughtful and very helpful. She is a wonderful employee I hope she gets recognized for being so conscientious.

It might not cater to your specific interest to the expert level that you are expecting, but that is why specialized private facilities exist. From senior citizens to families and teens, who are looking to access fitness, this location has it all. It offers various leveled workout classes, childcare while you workout, an indoor play structure, basketball courts, swimming, and ice skating with a friendly staff. If you have lived outside Arvada, you realize you would pay a premium when compared to the cost of living to access all of these resources under one roof anywhere else.
