We also really like swim lessons here for the wee ones. The fact that the pool facility has so many different features is great! The one downside of course is that this facility can get REALLY busy and full on a regular basis. The fitness centre is good too, though it can be crowded. My kid adores the interactive art in the lobby. Transit is nearby and parking is ample though you may have to walk a fair bit once you've parked in the overflow lot.

There are always good classes going on here. There's a nook on the Northside of the running track with stationery bikes, a pulley machine, and kettle bells so I can do the majority of my workout in this section. They also have a ton of free weights, all the different cardio machines, weight machines, a running track, turf fields, racquet ball courts, basketball courts, and a beautiful pool. It really has everything I could ever need to stay fit. By far the prettiest and best stocked city facility.

Visited Clareview Rec Center with the family and my kids had fun…read more They have a swimming pool, basketball courts, gym and indoor playground for the kids which was the main reason we went. At the time we went during the day, it was pretty quiet. Highly recommend for all hour recreation needs and family friendly too!

I mainly went for the pool today. The change room had those lockers that you punch in a 4 digit code and it saves it and locks it for you. Just remember the code and your locker number. They have the typical 25 meter pool and a kid pool with water jets and beach entry. I seen something called a 'lazy river' which looked like a sort of maze you could meander through, which was kind of interesting. I think these are all salt water. I believe I seen another pool as well that looked shallow, but deeper then the kid pool. Theres a hot tub thats actually pretty large. I seen a steam room but it was closed. Additionally I seen a water slide, as well as 3 tiers of diving boards. Its not too shabby for catching a swim but it would be nice if they had a sauna.

Only went here twice for a lap swim, the pool was too short and had too few lanes for lap swimming…read morethat I didn't want to go again. Since it's cheaper than some of the other fitness centres in Edmonton it might be a good choice for that but for me I preferred the Terwillegar or Peter Hemingway facilities. Changing rooms were fine, a bit dated. Staff seemed fine and the place was more relaxed than others. It's apparently closed for upgrades right now so I'm sure it will be a nice place to go to once that is finished.

We've been in this facility for over a year now and will be for years to come…read more We just appreciate and love the convenience of dealing with the owners. The security that this facility has is top notch, and it's well maintained with gravel and sand and mouser cats! The pricing is by far the best out there, and you'll see it once you booked a tour in the facility! Yes, you can tour around the lot by calling the contact number - (780) 690-8039. I highly recommend this storage facility to all of you, and it's worth every cent! Thank you "Hide Your Ride" for sharing your awesome storage place to the community!

This place is huge! I got lost looking for the drink…read more I was in the area so I decided to check the pool out. Pretty sizable, its weird how half the pools in this city are tiny and the others are gigantic. I mistook the hot tub for a pool at first. Bad vision without my specs. Hot tub wasn't too hot but it might've been the day. Theres 3 pools I think. Kids, lanes and a diving area. This place has a slide and a lot more. In the swimming lanes, someone had an under water radio, which was weird but cool! Couldn't hear it above water, only below. I didn't see a sauna but there is a steam room. Every 40 seconds it was blasting heat into the room pshhh! Pshhh! I found it a bit tricky to find the shower by the steam but its probably just my bad eyes again.

The facility seems to be in good repair and the mini gym where sportball was held was well maintained and the venue had ample parking. I am definitely interested in taking the kid here again someday to check out the toddler play structure when it is available. The pool looks nice. I haven't swum here in over 20+ years so I really can't adequately review it nowadays but I have fond memories of swimming here in any case.

Came to Kinsmen Leisure Centre yesterday for a toddler birthday party…read more My review is for the amenities used for the toddler play & party room. The play room is for children 6 & under. It had optional black lights throughout the room which the kiddos loved! There were plenty of slides, climbing structures, giant foam building pieces, gymnastic mats, and a rock climbing wall! It was clean, it was bright, it was spacious! Adjoining the playroom was a large party room with tables, chairs, washroom, sink, counter area. My only complaint is that my kiddos could see & smell the pool which led to incessant requests to go swimming... So we will likely go swimming today! I think the mom said it was $170 for 2 hours. Balloons & piñatas are not allowed due to the air intake system. Overall, I'd give it a 9 out of 10! 2 hours is a pretty tight window to set up, play, eat, open presents, and clean up. The next group was waiting for us to leave at the 2 hour mark.

Great facility to work out in. Safe and friendly, clean. Great selection of programs.read more

Came to the Castle Downs Spray Park today as part of my Yelp quest to find the best of the best…read morespray and splash parks in and around Edmonton. Castle Downs comes in at a strong 4 out of 5 stars. Today was a jam packed Sunday afternoon with so very many options including multiple playgrounds, giant gazebo, skatepark, 2 food trucks - ice cream and a Poutine/burger/fry truck, and the city of Edmonton Green Shack peeps. The Spray park had several zones including a musical piano, spray cannons, and loops of water you can run through. PROS Multiple water and playground zones -something for everyone Washrooms Food trucks Green shacks Huge grass fields/hills surrounding park Ample parking lot City of Edmonton Staff Rubber ground for majority of spray park and playground Lots of swings CONS Too big! So big that it was easy to lose track of my toddler even while playing with him on the playground and in the spray park Zones are not fenced in so if you lose track of your child, they could go missing quickly or wander to the parking lot/road. Close proximity of townhomes attached to the backing grass, again not fenced off, would also make it easy for a child to wander to a residential area. Some people may be thinking, hey watch you kid(s) and yes BUT if you are here with several children (especially toddlers) we all know how fast one can run off while attending to another child. The water cannons shoot water hard enough to nearly knock my toddler off his feet - good for BIG kids but not so great for my toddler and kindergartner Lack of shade - lots of people set their chairs up against the washroom building to try and find shade Very few benches/picnic tables In summary, Castle Downs park has loads of amenities and lots of space but so much so that it felt overwhelming at times and difficult to keep track of little ones. If you have a big kid that doesn't require sight and sound supervision, this may be the park for you! But if you're like me with a toddler and little kid, this park was a little too much for us coupled with a lack of shade or fenced in areas resulting in a solid 4 out of 5 stars. PS - If you are planning on coming here with little ones under 5 - I'd recommend a 1:1 ratio of supervision to toddlers :-)
