About

Clean recreational center featuring an indoor and outdoor pool, plus kiddie pools and water slides.

The outdoor pools at the Provo Rec Center are generally heated to a comfortable recreational temperature to ensure an enjoyable experience for all patrons, though specific daily temperatures are not always publicly advertised. This heating helps maintain a pleasant environment for swimming and play, especially during cooler summer days or evenings.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This recreation center is highly recommended for families with children, offering a wide array of activities across both its indoor and outdoor pools. Key attractions include a shallow pool with play equipment, various waterslides (including an obstacle pool popular with teens), a lazy river, and a jumping cliff. Reviewers consistently praise the great prices, generally clean facilities, and friendly staff. While some note that it can get crowded and noisy indoors, many find the large size of the facility helps mitigate the crowd, and a tip to avoid peak times is to arrive right at 10 AM. Annual passes are considered a great value, with many families willing to travel a significant distance to visit. A minor point of criticism was one instance of the outdoor pool temperature being too cold on a specific day, and one mention of a smelly bathroom.

The outdoor pool was great for my kids. There is a younger-kid pool (shallow all around) with fun play equipment, and then there is another pool next to it. So much to do here because then you also have the pools inside the building (different Google listing)! The bathroom was really smelly.

It's a fun pool. It was 86 degrees and cloudy the day we went and the outdoor pool temperatures were too cold. We stayed inside. My kids enjoy the lazy river, the jumping cliff and the waterslides. While I like the facility, I don't come here often because it's typically very crowded and the noise level is pretty intense if you are indoors. I recommend coming right at 10 because there are not as many people.

We did not plan on going here but the water 💦 park we wanted to go was closed. I found this recreation center on Google. I'm glad we found it! Great prices, nice, clean and friendly staff. We plan on coming back again and again.

Kids loved this pool! I have some very active kids and the obstacle pool was such a fun way to get them to use their energy. It was perfect for teens, my 10 year old was a bit short for some of the things. So many things to do! The water slides on the outdoor pool are so much fun! I recommend the orange one if you are afraid of the dark lol 🤣 the green one has some areas that is completely black and has you guessing your fate. Even though it gets crowded, this place is so big, you don't really notice. The kids love this place so much we got a pass even though we live 40 min. away!

Fantastic place for Families! We have a pass and it is totally worth the cost! Great Gym, although it gets busy, and fantastic outdoor and indoor pools and slide for kids!
