The practical details
We list only what the camp itself publishes, and programs change — dates, prices, ages and availability can all move after we check. Confirm the details on the camp’s own website and contact Ottawa Recreation Commission directly before you register or pay. Last checked August 2026.

Powered by GoogleIt's a very large facility with all the basics. But the basics are basic (equipment needs an upgrade), and the staff could care less that you are there. It's a $2 workout. You get what you pay for.
If I could put 0 stars I definitely would! The women at the front desk were absolutely unprofessional, throwing papers around, had a horrible attitude altogether. Management definitely need to hire people who have better customer skills, cause they definitely ain't it!!!!
A great place to go to work out. There is a workout for senior citizens Monday through Thursday. Starts at 9:00 ends at 10. Everyone is fiendly and they will show you the ropes. Contact the center for more information.
Update: The staff does a very poor job of calling you back when you have questions. Customer service skills are negligible. Very disappointing. This evening I played pickleball and had a great time. I've used the walking track upstairs and lifted weights in the past. It's a great public facility.
Great programs and workout facility. My kids love this Rec.
