My Grandson attended Summer Camp for Kindergarten and First grade. The Director and Staff made some attempts to reduce Bullying. However they were not successful. It was very disturbing and disappointing. I called and wrote requesting to encourage a No Tolerance stance. Nothing worked. We will not use the Camp again. Our family has always been pleased with the Facilities and Staff . We have utilized the park for 30 years.​ read more

My young 6 yo grandson has had great experiences with summer camp in 2024 and ASAP after school care this school year. Reasonably priced, and great for social kids who want others to interact and play with. Nearly all the staff are engaged, caring and communicative with adults. read more

My son has been going to the afterschool program for more than a year and also attended their summer camp. I've had nothing but great experiences here with the staff. Professional and fun, striking a nice balance. They tell me when my kid has been naughty, which I appreciate. We handle it right at pick up, myself, my son and staff. They also tell me when he did something kind or helpful. So I've always gotten fair and balanced feedback that aligned with his personality. They have always done crafts, swimming, field trips to keep it interesting for the kids. They are usually open for no school days and some holidays. I've always felt that staff really got to know him as well as gotten to know me and I've always felt he was safe there. The price is really decent and it's close to his school and home. The rest of the staff that works there has always been very nice and helpful as well. I would and have recommended River Road park and Rec. I'm looking forward when I retire to going to many of their adult classes and travel opportunities. read more

Good stuff: Super friendly staff An indoor pool Great massage at decent prices Local option for showing for those without their own bathrooms Community vibe Not great stuff: The community vibe means it's a little common worn? It feels like an elementary school circa 1975 , but without any retro hipster chic. Most the programming is aimed at families. This is great if you have a family. If you don't -not so much. The classes are offered on a drop-in or per read more

I wouldn't leave my dog in their after school program. No training for any of the staff and treating children cruelly is just fine with the director. Lots of bullying by the staff and between the kids. YMCA costs more but their staff is much better equipped. read more

People were very friendly. Was able to swim laps. Only 6 lanes and a short period of time to swim before they sectioned off for kids swim lessons. Showers were open area and reminded me of gym class not private. They did have a jacuzzi outside which was ok. read more

River Road Park & Recreation District - Massage Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Thank you. I swam here from time to time when I was no longer a doctoral student and floundering .. they had discounted fees for those with no jobs- nothing embarrassing abouti it. They knew - it's one factor in Eugene at that time - many people were out of work and instead of pretending that was not the case- they had a system for people to use facilities and to be a part of life.

This is an intensely great park. Tucked away off River Road, it's the perfect place to picnic on a hot day. The old growth trees give it a grove feeling and keep you cool. read more

River Road Park & Recreation District - Old trees shade pleasantly soft grass. Perfect for a picnic on a hot day. - Massage Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I just went here to this pool for my first time, on Wednesday, November 23 of this year, and it's so wonderful that it makes me wanna be one of their loyal swimmers! This was my first day of swimming in years, probably since about 2015. Let me tell ya, it's wonderful! I was a bit frightened of the steps, as I'm sight challenged, and that railing is not very big, so as a solution, one of the friendly lifeguards there put me on the chair lift, and gently lowered me into the pool. It's like riding on a plane! It feels so amazing like you're on a trip to paradise! Even the water feels wonderful! It's not too hot, not too cold, but juuuuuuuuust right! When I was done, she lifted me out of the pool, another amazing plane ride! When I took a shower, it felt like a warm water massage! Paradise! I'm gonna make this pool a regular part of my workout routine every week! I come on Wednesday afternoons at about 1:30 when it's not so crowded, and I'm greeted with positive attitudes. Amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing! Better yet, I got a 10-pass punch card, which I can renew when I need to, so that I don't have to spend a fortune. This pool deserves more than 5 stars! How about 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stars! You guys are the best! read more

I grew up by this park, and it will always be my favorite. They have all sorts of activities for people to take advantage of! My daughter will be going to Preschool there starting soon, because their teachers were the most friendly towards me and my girlfriend. read more

Five stars because this recreation center did it's job when I came in here for a fitness class. The class was $6 for a drop in which was nice so I could try it out and see how it was but you can also buy a punch card and get a better deal for more classes. They take card and cash which is helpful. This place has a fitness center and an indoor pool as well as a park outside of it. This place is located in a neighborhood setting and has a large parking lot. It's not the most fancy or high end type of center but I think that's the point. It's nice to be able to exercise or take the kids to the pool for cheap and an indoor pool sounds great for when its cold outside! read more

This week, I had my first massage at River Road Park & Recreation. My masseuse was Jenn Hodges. I have had a lot of body work during my years as a professional musician, and Jenn was simply the best. The way that she zoned in on my trouble spots - neck and shoulder area - was remarkable. She is very present with an uncanny ability to tune in and listen to your body. I have never felt such balance after a massage. Kudos to Jenn. I will be back. read more

Love love love them, so nice to have a work out sauna and a hot tub after a swim for an affordable cost

Very lively and active community center!!! Staff were so incredibly kind and helpful, can't say enough great things about this place! And they have a sauna!!! 10/10! read more

I went to my first Zumba class ever last night! I don't know how I've gone this long without it! Maribel is an amazing instructor. It's obvious she's having a blast the entire time, which kept me energetic and smiling through the whole hour (which went by super fast). Their punch card system is fantastic and as long as Maribel is here, I will keep coming back for eternity! :D read more

Love it here!! People are always so friendly. I was able to get my son a scholarship for swimming lessons and the person that helped me was super nice. The swimming instructors were great too-- one was obviously a teenager but he was excellent with my son! read more

Grew up here, will always consider it home. Programs for all ages and in tons of different areas!

I just had a massage done by Mike on Monday. It was amazing. This is my first time with Mike and he is awesome. He does amazing work, he is efficient and understanding of what I wanted done. I will go to him again! read more

The facility had plenty of parking and open schedules for parent who work full time during the day. We were able to make it to the evening classes.This is where my son has his first swimming lessons at and he loves it. The instructors weren't pushy at all! There were two instructors and they both spent equal time with each child. I will definitly come back for the next level of swimming lessons for my son. read more

I took my two little girls here today (1yr and 4yrs old) to swim in their outdoor wading pool. First, I told the receptionist we'd never been there before...she didn't offer any directions to the pool so we were left to wander around the building. We finally find it out back, behind the building. It's a really cute little pool, about 1.5 or 2 feet deep, I'd say. So my 4 yr old gets in and starts playing with some other kids. I get in with my 1 year old and hold her hands and we start walking around in the water. There were two lifeguards. They were standing right next to each other, instead of on opposite sides of the pool like they're supposed to. One of the lifeguards comes up to me and tells me I am not allowed in the wading pool because he "wouldn't be able to see the other children" (even though he would have, had they been on opposite sides of the pool!!). There was probably 8 other kids in the pool and I'm a tiny 5'2", so I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be blocking his view. I tried to reason with him that I was in there so my 1yr old could wade around like big sister. I even offered to sit on my knees. Nope. I made him get me a copy of their policies. Even the policy was unclear. Said it was dependent on how many children were in the pool. 30 kids, I could see the reason behind it. 8? Not so much. I asked him to define it, he wouldn't. So I go inside and talk with a manager. She's no help. But she said we could swim inside for free. We go inside and of course my 4 yr old is not tall enough to touch the bottom. Thanks for nothing. All in all, it was the most frustrating, ridiculous experience I've ever had. The policies and customer service were both far below expectation. I was so angry when we left, that I didn't even get dressed. We all stormed out in our swimsuits! Gonna try Willamalane or Amazon tomorrow... read more
