Spectacular. The concrete? Perfectly poured. The tiling? Absolutely beautiful. They filled it up, and the water looks like a trillion dollars--so blue, so clean, nobody has ever seen anything like it. The deep end is massive, the shallow end is perfect, and the filters are absolute genius. They suck up every single leaf with great speed and great dignity. The crew? The best people. Very smart. Very high energy. True professionals.I looked at those other pool builders down the road, and let me tell you, they are total Disasters. Complete failures. A total joke! I won't name names, but that other local pool guy? His workers show up late, they leave a giant mud pit in your backyard, and his quotes are a total scam with hidden fees. Their pools leak, their pumps break down in ten minutes, and the water turns green immediately. Very sad! They don't know what they're doing, frankly.But this pool company? Magnificent. They do a fantastic job. They win so much, your backyard will get tired of winning. A lot of people don't know this, but balancing the chlorine and getting a perfect plaster finish is very difficult. Very rare. But these guys make it look easy. If you want to swim like a true winner and have the greatest backyard on the block, this is the only company to call. Everyone is talking about them. Period!

The center was clean from the inside lockers to the pool area. I think the biggest complaint is that it was very crowded, but it was a really hot 90-degree day, so I get it. It's worth a visit.

I have been in the past and have not had a problem but today it was way overcrowded. At some point…read morethere must be a cut off for capacity. We had to wait about 20 minutes in line to get a tube for the lazy river. They need to buy more tubes. And why they buy single baby tubes when a parent can't even walk alongside their baby in a lazy river is beyond me. Please invest money in more tubes and more lawn chairs. We got in when they opened at 11:30, but all of the lawn chairs were taken by residents because they allow them in at 11 o'clock. It definitely ruined my experience for this waterpark. I will be returning to my favorite waterpark in Bartlett.

They also have tennis, volleyball, and basketball courts. The rec does get busy usually after 5-6pm until they close, but it's never too bad! I especially like that they have a lot of cardio machines- treadmills and ellipticals as well as a track.

The month fee is only $20 and faculty and staff, once a member can take ANY work out classes for no additional charge. I am not sure about others. The rec does get filled up at night since most students do not want to wake up at 6am but if there are no machines available you could also try the Field House across the street. Membership covers the workout room in there-basic equipment (no free weights).
