The Cascade Aquatic & Recreation Center is a year-round geothermal-heated pool and fitness center in Cascade, offering group and private swim lessons, a youth swim team (Cascade Killer Whales), and youth sports programs. It functions as a community aquatic and recreation facility rather than a structured kids' summer camp.

★Carl SpacklerJust started coming here. I ride the green line down. 3rd trip down. Hardly nobody watches their kids in the "therapy pool". So they are under the age to be not watched and play in the heat pool. The swim team shows up. Kids running amok. Then get out to catch the bus back and the cleaning lady has the men's locker room locked out. So had to grab gear and change in a bathroom. Couldn't dry out shorts. Kids rest on the pool lane divider things. I was always to understand thats a no no. So to sum it up, always expect anybody to enforce the rules. Staff or parents. And locker room cleaning when you least expect it.
★★★★★Rosa BakerI visited twice during a trip. This was the only gym I found in the area. It was clean and not overcrowded. It is $10 per day unless you have a monthly membership. I was told you can come in several times the same day for that price. The equipment is in very good condition even though there are some machines that are a bit old but still work perfectly, like some thread mills and elliptical machines. Overall, I highly recommend it.
★★★★★Miss Mimi HugabombThe river part is really cool. Shallow wading areas for kids or just to sit and soak. Water is freezing even in summer but nice to cool off. Watch your kiddos. Those rapids are fast. Be prepared with life jackets if you’re gonna jump the rapids. Fun times. Very serene. There’s a rental place for boogie boards and such. You can fish too. Very nice bathrooms in the building. The aquatic center has a small workout room and outdoor pool that we didn’t use but is nice.
★★★★★abrams familywcFirst time going inside the rec area. Met Shay the district manager and she showed me all around! 8 years in Idaho and have never been inside. I was really impressed with the gym, they classes upstairs, soon to be daycare offerings, indoor swimming pool. Outside we played bocce ball and horse shoes. Normally we walk the paths and take in the river and view eagles and ospreys flighing about. Will be back to partake in the rec area this summer.
★★★★★Andrew BranhamAbsolutely love this place! We drive up from Garden Valley, take a swim and then grab dinner in Cascade.
