West River Community Center

About

Large center for fitness and recreation with a family water park, basketball and tennis courts, and a rock-climbing wall.

The West River Community Center typically maintains its lap pool at approximately 80-82°F (26-28°C) and its leisure pool/play areas, including the current channel, at a warmer 86-88°F (30-31°C) for guest comfort.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This is described as an impressive, large, and clean facility with a wide array of amenities suitable for all ages. Patrons appreciate the friendly and welcoming staff. Key features include a fun family pool with slides, a lap pool, multiple basketball, tennis, and racquetball courts, a walking track, rock climbing wall, lazy river, and two saunas. The workout areas are spacious, offering plenty of new or updated cardio and weight equipment, with many different workout classes available. Pricing for daily passes ($8-9) and monthly memberships ($55) is considered reasonable. While the facility is generally well-maintained, some furniture is outdated, and a notable drawback is the lack of air conditioning upstairs, making some workout areas uncomfortably hot, except for the basketball courts. The busiest times are 5-7 PM, during which some weightlifting equipment can be hard to access. Overall, it is highly valued by the community, offering a great option for fitness and recreational activities, including youth sports.

We signed up for a membership, and went in the family pool area. It was really fun, the water was clean, had good circulation. Locker rooms were well kept and facility was clean. The front desk staff were welcoming and friendly and welcomed us to town as we will be moving to Dickinson soon. The front desk staff showed us the child care room and indoor playground room.

$9 for a daily pass! $55 for a month which is a good price. There are plenty of treadmills. The workout areas have alot of room & during evening hours its pretty empty. I find it very relaxing in the afternoon. Most of the furniture is out dated but some equipment was upgraded. If anybody wants to know, it was like walking into an oven upstairs, even walking thru the door 🫣 The basketball court areas were the only place with the A/C going.

Great place to get a workout in when visiting Dickinson. It was $8 for an adult day pass, which is reasonable considering the enormity of the facility. They have Matrix cardio and weight equipment that is pretty new and decently maintained. The facility is clean and also well maintained. The features that I saw were 5 basketball courts, multiple indoor tennis courts and racketball courts, free weights, weight machines, multiple cardio equipment areas with stair climbers, treadmills, ellipticals, rowers, and exercise bikes. There was a family pool with water slides and a lap pool that is 13ft deep. Overall, it is an impressive facility for the Dickinson community.

Visit here every morning, sometimes twice a day. 4 stairsteppers and tons of other cardio equipment. Huge complex with many different types of workout classes with skill, enthusiastic trainers. Indoor pool, watersides, and a lazy river. 2 saunas, walking track, basketball courts, rock climbing wall and tennis courts too. This place has something for everyone, any age. Busiest time to visit is 5-7. Some hard to get weight lifting equipment during that time. The staff is always friendly. Used to pay $80ish dollars for a membership at Anytime Fitness and got out of that contract the first minute I could. It's great for a town to have such a complex.

Both of my kids play soccer here, and my daughter started hockey this past winter. Grateful for everything Dickinson has to offer since we live in Killdeer, and unfortunately they don't have the sports my kids enjoy.
