![]() ![]() There is a small indoor water park for members that would have been nice to have my non-swimming child visit. Stands are a little small, but raised level keeping them separate from the swimmers - smart. The pool is where we spent most of our time, this is truly one of if not the best pool in the state as it can be split to a smaller pool and a cool down pool or kept as an olympic - 50m pool. There are also baseball/softball fields here. Parking near the building is reserved for RecPlex members, understood, but seemed excessive given the number of non-members that were visiting for hockey and swim events. They could mark the individual areas better, specifically for the swimming there are no signs directing you where to go from the street, huge signs on the building are pointless when you can't see them from public parking areas or the road. Hockey, Basketball, Olympic pool and more in one facility. I honestly don't recommend this for younger children. It was also cool you could paddle board and kayak, but those activities were not allowed on the entire lake just certain areas. It was nice to have lifeguards on duty and they had a fun floating obstacle course for older kids around 11-14. I couldn't even imagine doing that with two younger kids and one parent!! A bit of an ordeal for a one parent and child outing. Also the bathrooms are located outside of the fenced off beach area, so if you have a child who needs to use the restroom, you have to leave the area to go to the front of the pavilion, and then get buzzed back into the fenced in beach area. The beach area looked nice from afar, but was not very well kept, which is surprising since we paid $14 to get into the beach area. The lake is beautiful and than there is this huge plant just there. However, I could not get over the large ominous chemical plant lurking over the lake on horizon. It stays a bit chilly as it is a Spring fed lake. We were staying at a hotel nearby and had some extra time so we headed over to the beach.
