At first this seemed like a hidden gem in a hidden gem of an area. Not many places like this around anymore. Probably not a good fit if you and your kids think you're pampered royalty, but it's good for hard working Americans who want their kids to learn swimming and gymnastics. But we were given what looked like a human trafficking help note within the facility and we decided to not go back.

My daughter had a birthday party there and it was a blast. The pool was so much fun and Miss Diane, pulled out lots of fun pool floats and activities for the kiddos. Special shout out to Faith who was very accommodating from start to finish. When I was nursing my son she even brought over a fan to us to keep us cool, it was so sweet and appreciated!

Although by appearance, it doesn't seem like a fitness center due to size it's a nice place to get your regimens in and out. Of course depending on days and times which is a plus when you want to do your workout. The pool is nice and large that is heated so you aren't freezing when swimming and enjoying it whether your booked for a personal workout session or swim time with the family. They have few treadmills and ellipticals which might make you worry if they will have one available but they usually do because this place is a nice find. One of the great things about this place though is it's family oriented. Sign your kid up for swimming classes or some gymnastics (signed my girl up for both) to keep them moving and have fun. Kids pool parties can be booked which is so cool because they can have fun in the pool and even have a party. They provide the area, time in the pool supervised, and a decent amount of area for the party. Food and such is not provided so you are in charge of those. They have lots of different classes and even camp for the young ones. Or heck a job as a camp counselor. The owners are very kind and ran by them which I adore. Only reason I have it a 4 and not a 5 star is because it's a bit run down but still a great establishment. Come by and support this place. You really don't regret it. Update as of 04/28/2022 I have recently been going due to my daughter going back to swimming lessons. The place somehow seems more bright and updated in certain areas that I've been. The ceiling of the pool area has been replaced with a higher dropped ceiling. The updated led lights make things bright and very welcoming.

Horrible summer camp for your kids. Used to be amazing but they have gone down hill tremendously. Counselors don’t watch the children at all, and they allow bullying to go on. Then they will pick and choose which kids to blame. The owner doesn’t want to address the major problems. She would rather pretend it’s not her staff.

If I could give this place negative stars I would. Diane is rude. She yells inappropriately at child in front of their parents. Which makes me wonder how she is with children if their parents aren’t around.. I planned on having my daughters next birthday there but after what I experienced today I would never give this place my business again…
