Review of Longmont Recreation Center

There are great things about Longmont's Rec Center...

There are great things about Longmont's Rec Center. The pool area with slides, lazy river, lap pool and hot tub. Steam room and sauna, Bonus! Climbing wall, super cool. Friendly staff. Good selection of classes. All these great things are the reasons we need another facility. Basically the few negative things about this facility all come back to occupancy. The weight area is already small but then add the folks getting off work and trying to fit in a workout before the evening grind, and you have mayhem. Dirty locker rooms, mainly the family rooms, too many people for the custodian to keep up with. No parking.... again. We have a need greater than this one facility can meet. The fact that is not centrally located seems odd as well. But to end on a positive note... I always have the greatest time swimming with my grandson here. Pool is warm which helps kids not "freak out" when becoming familiar with the water.
