My friend loves this park because "it's not just one structure, there are lots of different pieces for [my daughter] to explore." Riverfront Crossings Park has great faux nature logs and rocks for kids to play with/on. From the tunnel that runs under a hill, to the zip line there is loads of fun to be had here. I also love the parent/child partner swing which allows parents to swing in tandem with their little one- it saves you an arm workout! There are also some metal spheres that make noise similar to a steel drum. It's a nice sensory addition for children.

The water is warmer than Mercer and they don't have a hot tub. Aside from that, the gym facility is super weak but again it's free and has a few weight machines that get the job done if you're not a hard-core weight person. The basketball courts are rarely used and also a nice feature. It's quiet, clean and relatively normal but nothing fancy.

There are lanes for swimming and a wonderful deep area for independent water aerobics. Perhaps the best part of this pool are the members of the community who use it. They are so friendly and welcoming to all-- a place where friends can be made and easy-going conversation makes the time fly! This community pool is a downtown treasure. While I live closer to Mercer, the warmth of the water and the people who swim at Robert A Lee lure me to this lovely place where everybody knows your name.
