★★★★Han GaoVery good gym. Excellent selection of equipment. Also nice having basketball courts and an indoor track. Love the saunas as well. Only complaints I have with this place are the price tag of $98/month (if you’re not affiliated with the university), the cost of parking sometimes, and the student employees at the front desk sometimes. But overall worth it if you can make good use of the facilities. I would recommend going at least four times a week to make it worth it. Edit (3/22/2026): downgraded to a 4 star mostly due to the downsides (expensive parking, the student employees at the front desk sometimes, and the price of a community membership). Still would recommend provided you make good use of it
★★Miriamne Marlowewent to swim with my niece and the pool was wonderful but the professionalism of the people working the front desk was really laughable. When you walk into a space and loudly hear all the employees gossiping more than actually helping anyone it makes 12 dollars feel like a ridiculous amount to pay.
★★★★★Nuzhat Nuari Khan RivuIt is a state-of-the-art complex offering a wide array of fitness and wellness amenities to the campus community and public. The facility spans three levels of fitness space, featuring a 52.5-foot climbing wall, a 50-meter competitive swimming pool, an 18-foot diving well, a recreational pool with water features, a one-ninth-mile jogging track, and multiple courts for basketball and volleyball. It has 3 group activities rooms & almost all the machines you need for cardio & strength training. It also includes a café and a Wellness Suite that provides nutrition counseling and fitness assessments, solidifying its reputation as a top-tier collegiate recreation center.
★★★★★Ann SensenbrennerWent there for my daughter's collegiate swim meet. Beautiful, clean, modern facility. The basketball courts, workout areas and jogging/walking track appear very well maintained, though I did not use them.
