A top notch park in Columbia full of rec activities for all ages. You have swimming, tennis,…read morewalking/running trails, disc golf and more. On top of that, it's immaculately maintained. Any city across the country would love to have park like Albert-Oakland (sadly many don't). I came for the disc golf. Two 18 holes courses (wow!). The original winds through gentle slopes and wooded areas, complete with tough dog legs and water hazards. The newer course mostly takes you up and down a large hill. While this newer course's layout is a bit simpler than the original, you will be throwing around plenty of well-placed trees and other obstacles. You could spend all day here and never be bored. I hope to be back the next time I'm in Columbia!

My granddaughters were visiting again and I took them to the water park and they had a great time…read more The place was very clean and has a women's and family locker room with showers. There's locker's availble as well. There's a concession stand with limited food and drinks but very reasonable. Zero entry, most of the pool areas are 3'6 deep to 3'. There are baby slide, a medium wide slide and a large slide as well as a basketball hoop, innertubes and a deeper area for the larger kids and adults. There are plenty of lounge chaise and tables with an umbrellas. They take cash or checks, no debit or credit cards. Nice for the locals and those who are visiting the area. My only suggestion is that the teenagers working there, learn how to say "Thank You" when taking money either for entry or at the concession stand.

Awesome court to play anything you like from basketball, volleyball even badminton!.. They have a lot of free aerobic classes, and a fantastic pool area. I would give this place 5 star's, but what's holding me back , is they use paper towels for cleaning instead of cloth, and their vending machine doesn't have lot's of healthy options. Other than that. I love this place!

Partly our fault because we didn't realize that it was not allowed and we should've called it in. So if it really bothers you, definitely call it in. I don't care what people do in their private residences, but I don't want it around my niece and as we packed up in the morning, my trailer reeked of it. The bar and grill was closed too even though it says it's open so that was very disappointing. We were only there to spend the night, not really on vacation, but I would definitely go back if I was on vacation.

Soon they were disappointed because the diving boards were closed off. The lifeguard says that there was "too many chemicals and that they couldn't see below the waters surface." That seems like something that could be solved by just having less chemicals in the water but ok. The snacks were inexpensive and the crowd was friendly. I hope the boards will be open the next time we come.

I'm surprised they don't have a website. The best way to get more information is to call them or drop by and pick up a copy of their program guide, Rolla Fun Times. There is a track (1/10 of a mile), a gym, basketball court, volleyball court, and indoor water area. Adult passes are $7 for daily $28 per month for annual, or $302 for one time annual There are other prices for couples, children, students, and seniors. There are also scholarships for low-income families. The have a variety of classes including water fitness, cycling, yoga, pilates, and various leagues like basketball, volleyball, tennis and ping-pong. The hours are pretty good, 5:30 AM - 10 PM on weekdays, and 8 AM - 9 PM on Saturday, and 11 AM- 7 PM for the school year. The gym is pretty good, though they could probably use two benches and two inclined benches (they only have one of each). The water area is amazing. They have a huge indoor water slide, a lazy river area, a shallow water recreation area (for kids), and an area for lap swimming. The indoor water slide is gigantic. You can get a lock to store things in the lockers in the locker rooms, and they have a water extractor for your swimming suit, which removes most of the water. Outside, they have a 9-hole frisbee golf course, which is pretty fun. You can purchase a disc set (three discs including driver, middle-range, and putter) from the centre for $25. I highly recommend the place. My family frequents this place.
