Getting a monthly gym pass made me skip my wallet for at least a month, and this is pretty much the very first place that I burned the most calories at! Glad to be here shooting hoops on the basketball court this morning. and shaking my bottom on the community room later today!

What a great place to bring the families. Multiple pools and water activities. The slides are perfect for all ages! Lots of staff and food and drink available!

If I could give 0 stars I would. After trying to book a birthday party for over a month and a half, I got the run around from staff, never was contacted back from an event coordinator, and was told just 2 days ago that the room was still available and I just needed to add my payment. Called back today and the room is booked, in fact all the rooms in the building are booked and now I’m left with a month left to find a new venue. Thank you for wasting my time!!!

Had a good time at Foothills Aquatic Center! What really impressed me was how affordable everything was - admission was under $10 for my son & I, which is fantastic in today’s economy. Even though they don’t allow outside food or drinks, I was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable snack bar prices. Water bottles were only $1.50 and all the snacks were fairly priced, which I really appreciate when so many places gouge you on concessions. The lazy river was a hit with us, and I felt completely at ease with the number of lifeguards on duty - safety is clearly a priority here. The snack bar staff deserves special recognition - they were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the front desk experience. The staff there seemed a bit cold and unwelcoming, lacking the customer service warmth you’d hope for when first arriving. A smile and friendly greeting go a long way! Overall, this is a great spot for families looking for affordable aquatic fun. Hopefully they can work on that front desk hospitality to make the experience even better.

Super awesome aquatic center!! Clean, good amount of seating, shaded areas and misters going. Lazy river is great. Water slides are fun for kids over 48". 2 small diving boards, good size pool for swimming and kids separate play area.... there's something for everyone. The bathrooms are clean with changing rooms, lockers (must bring your own lock), showers and even a wall blow dryer!!! I just wish they had a morning session before it's blazing hot, like maybe 7-11am close for lunch then back open from 1-5pm. Wishful thinking, maybe in need of more lifeguards. Other than the 4 hrs there open, everything else was THEE BEST TIME of this summer so far.
