Breckenridge Recreation Center

About

Sprawling rec center with pools, a climbing gym, hot tubs and classes.

The lap pool at the Breckenridge Recreation Center is typically maintained at 79-81°F (26-27°C). The leisure pool, which includes a water slide, is kept warmer at approximately 86-88°F (30-31°C). Additionally, there is a hot tub available, usually heated to 102-104°F (39-40°C).

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The rec center receives praise for its generally clean gym areas, pool, and showers, friendly and helpful staff, equipment availability, and spectacular programming. The pool area is noted for its fun features for kids. However, there are significant criticisms regarding the cleanliness and condition of the bathrooms, which are described as smelling damp with uneven floors, old showers, wooden doors, and stained curtains, prompting calls for a complete remodel. The outdoor jacuzzi is also cited as being dirty and slimy. A recent pool remodel is a point of contention, with one reviewer finding the new design disappointing, noisy, inefficient, and only suitable for toddlers, contrasting it negatively with the old pool. Other minor issues include the indoor hot tub not being hot enough and the outdoor hot tub being crowded. The closing time (8 PM on weekdays) is considered too early by some users.

Great rec center! We only were there for the pool, steam room and showers, which were all clean. We had the pool area to ourselves on a Thursday evening. Had kid play area, basketball hoop and rock wall in the water were fun! The outdoor hot tub was pretty crowded so we went to the indoor hot tub which I thought could be a little hotter. Next time I would like to check out the weight room. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly.

Everything is fine in the gym areas, always clean. The worst part is the bathrooms; they smell of damp, the floor is horribly uneven, and you feel like you're bumping into things. The showers are old, and the worst part is the wooden doors, along with smelly and stained plastic curtains. They need to remodel the entire area. The family bathrooms, the men's and women's bathrooms, and the sauna all need to be modernized. and finally the jacuzzi that is outside needs more attention, it is dirty and feels sticky and slimy.

The remodel is disappointing. The old pool was amazing: with a super cool slide and a whirlpool and a single space that was large and versatile. It was perfect for kids of all ages . The new design is SO noisy. The kids pool is broken into such small areas that it’s difficult to play anywhere except where the water is 10 inches deep. Really inefficient use of space. Very limiting design not well suited for anyone but a toddler.

I cannot say enough about this place. It is always super clean, there’s always equipment available and the programming is spectacular. They are super responsive and friendly. I love the rec center!

Overall it’s a great gym good variety the but BIG downside to it though is that it closes really early for a gym like 8pm on the week days some people have work and want to go after and they open at 5 AM like what kinda schedule is that no one’s going at 5 AM😂
