    Great place for the price. We pay around $47 for a month and get access to a pool for my wife and small children. The front staff is usually nice and on time in the morning. I've only had a problem a hand full of times over the years. The pool is clean and lifeguard staff are friendly and always there. They provide swimming classes for all ages for an extra cost. The gym is nice with a small track around it upstairs with an elevator and stairs for access. The fitness center area (treadmill and weights) is decent and has what you need. There is never any grunting and usually quiet other than the televisions and people talking. The only draw back are the days/hours they are open, which should be expected for a community college fitness center. And access to the building when games are in progress, which also should be expected. Overall my family loves it for the past 6 years, and we will continue to go.

    Love it!!!! Very open and inviting. Clean and useful facilities. The instructor Mandy for the Deep Water Arobics class is on the ball. She gives clear instructions and walks around the pool engaging everyone. The bathrooms and showers are very clean and up to date. Lockers are available, bring a lock if you plan on using one. Havent used the excercise equipment, however it appears everything is top notch. We really enjoy our time here and will be coming back for more classes with Mandy.

    Great environment. Busy Thursday nights with Basketball and makes it difficult to find parking. Staff is great. Only wish it was open later.

    Actually was here to do the disc gold course! It was amazing. I have used the gym before as well and it's very nice I love the pool and the over head track in the court!

    great gym with a lot of equipment and the staff are friendly the only down side is they close early on Fridays and not open on Sunday.....I really wish other patrons would stop camping out on equipment playing on their phones too but I guess you can't have it all

    Nice clean facility. I loved swimming laps in the afternoon. Ever since the pandemic you have to reserve the lanes for the swimming pool for 30min blocks. This was great since you knew in advance that you had a lane available. Eventually I noticed that the if you didn’t reserve a lane by Monday most of the week was taken up and you couldn’t swim. Kinda a bummer.

    Excellent place! SO clean and modern! Basketball courts were huge… pool was warm and so nice… path to walk above the courts were very nice! Highly recommend!!!

    I am incredibly disappointed and frustrated by how we were treated at this facility. I reserved the pool for my daughter’s birthday party on February 25th. I reserved it weeks in advance and had a ton of communication about the party, what was allowed, and what to expect. I signed a paper with them and no where on the paper did it say they had the right to take away almost half of the pool from the party if members showed up. About 30-40 minutes after the kids were in the pool the lifeguards then roped off almost half the pool for members. I asked if the ropes could be taken down and stated that I didn’t mind sharing the pool, but they said no they could take it away and there was nothing I could do about it. All the kids were upset. The parents were upset. I was treated so rudely. Apparently the $150 I spent to have the party there didn’t matter as much as the members who showed up and wanted to take away almost half of the pool (the entire 4 ft section) instead of waiting 30 minutes for the party to end. The front desk associate was no help and was very rude to me as was the lifeguard. I would not recommend having your child’s birthday party here unless you want to be treated like your event and money don’t matter.

    I have never been more impressed with an Aquatics center than I have been with this one. From the moment you step in, you are welcomed like family. However, the extraordinary Coordinator, Mandy Long, truly sets this place apart. Mandy's passion for teaching and her commitment to being a positive influence in these kids' lives is phenomenal. My son has autism and doesn't always respond well to instructions, but Mandy handled the situation with grace and expertise. Her ability to connect with him and adapt her teaching methods impressed me and I am incredibly thankful. My son and I cannot wait to return for more lessons. The impact Mandy and the entire team have had on our experience is immeasurable. We feel fortunate to have found such a caring and skilled place for our aquatic needs. Thank you to Mandy Long and the entire Aquatics center team for your exceptional dedication and outstanding service.

    Great facilities...but it's a little too far for me to drive back and forth to.

  • 5/5 G G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place, staff are friendly and professional. Worth the membership cost in my opinion. One request: no more fire alarms when I'm in the pool and it's 40 degrees outside. LOL.....

    I took my 4 children there for swim lessons before we moved and I wish they could still go there. Mandy was our instructor and she always made it fun and safe for them. She is very knowledgeable and was always personable. We miss you and thank you for helping them be safe in the water!

    This facility is very impressive with all it has to offer people of ALL ages. It is clean,well kept and easy to move from one area to another from weight room to either pool,the gym or even to the upstairs. The weight room is very well equipped with no rust on the machines like you find elsewhere. Friendly ,helpful staff.

    So, after going here for about 6 months, spending money on a personal trainer, today, I am told I can't wear jeans on the machines I just paid 100.00 to learn how to use. Wish they had been upfront about that.

😠 I was a member of this Anytime location prior to the quarantine shut down last year. I always enjoyed working out here as it’s the nicest gym in the area and offers 24hr service. I’ve tried to rejoin for the last 3 months. I’ve called multiple times (during the offices so called revised hours) and e...

👍👍 From the first time I walked in the door, Tina made me feel welcome and appreciated! I'm still learning my way around the gym. I came from a CrossFit lifestyle so it's different but I can still do what's familiar to me. It's such a hidden gem, I'm happy I found it!!

👍👍 My wife and I had the chance to spend 4 + weeks with COIB. We were very pleased with the programming and attention to detail by the majority of the coaches. We could generally always count on a solid warm up, the WOD being broken down piece by piece, an engaged coach during the WOD, and specific mob...
