    Drew B said it best-this is a great park with lots of different amenities. The only thing I think…read moreit might fall short on is parking. There is a dedicated lot, but on game nights when lots of people are out enjoying the nice summer evening, it can get full. But, hey, what a good problem to have! It's a terrific facility and I'm glad to see that it's getting used.

    As far as I'm concerned, there's not a better activity park in any city in the greater Salt Lake…read morevalley than that at Bingham Junction Park. For Midvale--with only 4 parks and some very small ones (that I've reviewed rather critically)--BJP is a masterwork. First, a call out to anyone living in the Riverwalk Homes, Cascades at Riverwalk, Winchester Estates .... or heck, anyone in Midvale or anywhere near Midvale: GO TO YOUR PARK. On the banks of the Jordan River on its east side and enveloped by homes and apartments on the other three, there is a stunningly empty park on an 80-degree late summer day. There's a gigantic open, grassy area perfect for play. It has hill with a pronounced mound at the top. It's a great vantage point to see the park--as well as the mountains and the whole valley. But it's not there by accident. Come winter time, it becomes a sledding hill. There's a bit of a techie design to the place with the circuit board/microchip design between the pavilion and the basketball courts. And, oh, yeah, the basketball courts! Six different hoops, all adjustable to regular height or slam-dunkable for those with non-existent jumping capabilities. If you're on a day like when I visited, you can play a full-court game on a high-quality hard court (donated by, and adorned with, the logo of the Utah Jazz). With the long steps by it, the area doubles as an amphitheater. Add to that a full-sized sunken baseball field, equipped with walls and lights for night games give it that real baseball park vibe. The covered play area is the perfect meshing of rope of all sizes ... a climber's dream. Add to this several table-benches and the cleanest park restroom Ive been in, and you've got the perfect place to take the family on just about any day. I know I'll be back!

    I tried to swing by on a Saturday just a few weeks ago, and this place was packed. Like, zero…read moreparking and people everywhere. Even in the time of COVID when parks are a better option, I noped out. So do take note that when sports are in season, it's full of kids and parents watching games. But today, I stopped by for just a few minutes and it was quiet. Lovely. Shade. The perfect early autumn day with sun high in the sky but temps a lovely weather, and just a few people out enjoying the vibrant green grass that's bounced back after a dry summer. I read my original review just now and the nostalgia came sweeping over me. I have almost no recollection of the incident I mentioned before, where my buddy and I played football with his crush and she threw a block. That same buddy is married to someone else and has four kids now, so apparently the block didn't garner the respect she had hoped for. But I do remember the scholf of my young childhood, being taken away to give my mother a bit of respite and dad coming up with a shoe-golf game that was both fun and free. Today I really took note of the park, and all it offers. There are tennis courts, with lights you can turn on to play after dusk. There are restrooms on the east and west side. And the big empty fields of my youth are now lined with huge mature trees and have been converted into baseball diamonds. There's even a halfcourt basketball hoop on the very east side and a small paved walking path that navigates the circumference of this long, skinny park. It's my favorite part of Sandy, especially down towards main. Sandy has become a strip-mall-and-suburbs-track-housing kind of place, and it's nice to see a bit of the old charm and character in these streets. What a wonderful little park and delightful spot to spend a few minutes this afternoon.

    I went to the Dimple Dell Center to swim twice a week for a full year in 2023/2024. The women's…read morelocker room and the shower/restroom area often stunk of urine. This was really common and disgusting. One toilet stand was unbelievably dirty for 3 weeks until someone cleaned it. I put up with it until they cranked up the water temperature to 84F which made it impossible to do serious lap swimming. The pool managers I spoke to about it were extremely rude. My notes about the smell of urine didn't seem to make any difference. The front desk people were nice but calling to ask them about the pool availability was useless as they would give me incorrect info. By comparison, the Gene Fullmer's Center where I went to for a year prior to DD was perfectly clean, only more crowded.

    If looking for something to fill your schedule with a quick and fun trip to a recreation center,…read morethis place is a must. They have wall climbing which we didn't get to try since we arrived to have a couple of hours of swimming before closing. They have lap pools for adults and right size of toddler swim/play area and regular pool. There was a birthday party during our visit and the room was big. The restrooms/shower room looked spacious. We didn't have to use the shower or restroom. Entrance fee is not minimal and varies (kids, adult l, senior). No parking fee and with big parking space. .

    Clean, welcoming and SO many great classes to choose from! Also a daycare and a really nice locker…read moreroom where you can get cleaned up and ready for the day after sweating your face off. There's even vanities where you can blow dry your hair and put makeup on. (I read some reviews saying it was outdated, I don't know what people expect. The counters are granite, not laminate; get over yourself.) I was in town for a couple of weeks for the holidays and didn't want to loose the progress I'd made at the gym back home, so I called Treehouse based on a recommendation. They were happy to give me a short term pass while I was in town! They even let me come one day for free to make sure I liked it first! Liberty in the membership office was so friendly. I loved her the moment I heard her voice on the phone. Julie is an excellent teacher who kicks your butt with love. She's very encouraging and good at adapting workouts if you aren't as advanced. I took 3 different classes with her. I think "MetCon" circuit training was my favorite. Mary Lynn is not only an amazing instructor who motivates and pushes you, but you get a motivational-therapy-pep-talk at the end which, personally, brought me to tears in both classes I took from her. "Not your Mamas Pilates" introduced me to muscles I didn't know I had. "50/50" was a nice balance of weights and cardio. Loved the kick boxing moves! Amber's up beat "High Fitness" class felt like a cross between cheerleading and musical theater dance. She called it "old school aerobics". The choreography is repetitive enough that you can pick it up pretty easily, and if not, it's no big deal. It's fun and I felt it. Even my arms felt it! For those who don't like working out, this might be a fun way to start. Lisa taught dance club. I personally didn't like how loud the music was and how fast the moves were. I couldn't pick them up and therefore didn't feel "the burn" as much. BUT it's super popular and lots of ppl love that class because it feels like you're in a dance club. Go with some girlfriends and just have fun! I'm really bummed I have to go home now. There are still a handful of classes I haven't tried yet and I wish I could!!!

    Yoga classes, is great. Small tight space but we make it work…read more Overall, it is super outdated, increases prices without renovating. Looks like early 90s or late 80s inside. The steam room is dingy and moldy with cracked tiles. Not an upscale vibe at all, it is in an upper class neighborhood but low grade facility. Poor management, needs an overhaul.
