Yankton Summit Activities Center

About

Recreation complex for swimming, plus fitness classes and party rooms for kids.

The leisure pool and the lap pool are both maintained at a temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit. The warm water therapy pool is kept at a higher temperature of 92 degrees Fahrenheit.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The reviews highlight a versatile recreational facility, likely a community center, praised for both its pool and gym. The pool is described as a 'great place to take the kids,' featuring a U-shape, a large slide, a smaller slide, and a mushroom waterfall. It offers open swim from 12 pm to 3 pm, with a $7 entry fee that sometimes drops to $3, and is popular for birthday parties with available rooms. The gym receives consistent praise as 'wonderful' and 'really quite nice,' featuring an extensive 'old school' weight room with a wide array of equipment including Hammer Strength machines, numerous squat racks, various benches, cardio equipment (ellipticals, treadmills, bikes, a track), and ample free weights. While some machines are noted as old, they are considered clean, effective, and offer great value. Users appreciate amenities like chalk allowance and available belts, though limited operating hours on weekends and summer evenings are a drawback. Separately, one review commends the 'superbly talented' band Phat Cat Swinger for a performance at a Yankton Concert Association event.

Great place to take the kids! The pool is shaped like a U, with a big slide located where the U bends. There is also a smaller slide, and a mushroom waterfall thing for the littler kids. Usually it is $7 per person to get in, but sometimes they run specials where it is only $3. Open swim is from 12pm-3pm. The kids will sleep well if you bring them for the whole 3 hours, trust me. This is a popular place for birthday parties; they have a couple party rooms in the back that can be opened up and combined for larger groups. I have photos, but they're mostly me trying in vain to get pictures of my kids from across the pool.

A wonderful gym. Grabbed a day pass while in town. The weight room is old school and loaded with equipment. Many Hammer Strength machines (even overheard pull-down and seated shrug). Great facility.

Best place to work out overall. Alot of the machines are old yet still clean and effective. Great if you are an adult for swimming laps. Wish they had the newer more precise machines anytime fitness has but great value for what you get.

I use the Summit Center only for its gym, so I cannot comment on the pool. The gym is really quite nice. A good selection of equipment for strength and cardio training. They have one stair stepper, many elipticals, a few arc type trainers, treadmills, and stationary bikes. They have a good free weight section, including 6 or so squat racks and a Smith machine. They have 2 flat benches, one decline, and one incline. They have 2 leg presses also. They have two cable towers, which are sometimes crowded. They have probably 5-6 free weight benches. They seem to have 2-3 sets of free weights, which is really nice. They allow chalk and have belts available--another bonus. There is a track as well. It rarely is crowded, and it is well priced. Only downside is the hours! They close at 4pm on Saturday and Sunday during the summer and 8 pm during the week (during the summer also).
