★★★★★Christian EdwardsAwesome venue
★★★★★Noelle PedersonWe’re camping near this week on the mountain during a pretty gnarly heat wave and needed some relief in the late afternoon / early evening before heading back to camp. We’ve loved jumping in the creek & local swimming holes but were happy to try the pool at the community center for the night time adult swim 5:30-7:00 and so we could have a proper shower. The facilities are a little older with some quirks but reminded me exactly of the local pool in my small hometown. The staff were helpful and friendly. Grateful for this little spot that kept us cool (and clean!) during this trip.
★★★★★Gail MacLaughlinI visited the 'Tool Library' to donate tools. We think that THIS is a worthy cause! The people attending it were very nice. We're going to be returning to donate MORE tools in the future.😁
★★★★★Mark HKGreat as a community center. Friendly folks and plenty of young families enjoy the summer here. For swimming the pool is too small, but for fun for kids during the summer heat it's perfect.
★★★★★Andrew RingFantastic pool and facility. Pool is only 2½ ft deep at the shallow end, which makes it great for young kids. It's quite large so no worry about overcrowding, either.
