This was a great place to get in a water workout in a warm water pool, which is our favorite…read more We came here to use the pool. They have a lap pool and they also have a warmer pool that includes a lazy river and a couple of lap lanes, along with the children's play area. We were there on a weekday afternoon well swim lessons were going on, but had plenty of space to use one lap lane and the lazy river. They have a set of steps to enter by the lazy river and they have a chairlift that enters into one of the lanes. There's also a hot tub that has steps with a rail to get in. In the family locker room there are two accessible changing rooms with a bathroom and shower, including a shower bench and adjustable showerhead. They have an automatic door opener, which is phenomenal, however, the lock is up pretty high, which makes it less accessible for wheelchair users, and short people. there are two other changing rooms in the family locker space that don't have the automatic button, adjustable showerhead, or shower bench, or grab bars on the toilet, but are still fairly large and have space for a wheelchair user There was plenty of accessible parking and automatic doors to get into the building. The space exiting was pretty tight due to how they have the chairs arranged, somebody with a larger wheelchair may have to exit through the entry lane. We also used the steam room, there was no automatic door, but the door wasn't terribly heavy. We've been to lots of rec centers in the Denver Metro area, and this is definitely one of the most accessible

If you want to play racquetball, you can check out Paddles from the front desk, workout classes upstairs, they even have kids events after hours. If you are working out and have children, make sure to drop them off in the children's pavilion while you work out and then you can take them into the pool, which does include a waterslide and a lazy river. If you want to go swim laps, they do have an open lap pool on the opposite side away from the kid pool, which is nice. There is no outdoor pool, which is the only downfall.

The pool is filled to the brim with drunken 20 somethings so that no normal person can enjoy it…read more There is continuously blasting music that goes well into the morning due to the people staggering in from the local bars. Over half the people that are at the pool do not even live in the complex and are not guests of anyone. Anyone that claims that management patrols the area is either drunk themselves or is management trying to give itself a good review on here. The noise from the pool can be heard from down the block and this goes on from 10am until at least 3am even though management claims that they secure the pool area at 10pm (just as they claim to do to the roof top deck) but I guess it is easy to get a 10pm closure mixed up with an all night party spot.. If you enjoy not being able to relax and you want to have to weave your way through bodies, coolers, discarded "Adult Beverage" cups, trash (the human being and normal varieties), and you enjoy very loud music that comes at once from different sources to form a tidal wave of confused noise then by all means enjoy the pool!

This one has low entry fee, lifeguards who pay attention, sizable deep end for the kids and plenty of shallow play space. My kids are 13, 11 and 7 and moderately skilled swimmers for the record. Great slide. Lap lanes seem not too crowded during open swim. Decently shaded areas. Clean. Hours could be better and a snack bar would be divine. We also frequent The Splash, but the kids seem to prefer this one as it's less crowded and plays music so the overall "summer hang out spot" vibe is better for them.

Check out the public lap swim hours on their website before visiting. The main downside is that there's only 4 shared auxiliary swim lanes available in the evenings for Apex members. And the family (gender-shared) locker rooms are a little gross, especially the showers later in the day. Love that the pools are heated though, making it a great, accessible workout option in the Colorado winters.

The last time I came here was over 10 years ago and it is completely revamped. Karyn and Kim were super helpful in getting me started on how the membership works and allowing me to walk around to check out the space before deciding to sign up for the membership. Luckily I'm a resident of Westminster and was able to sign up with a resident discount. The 25 yard lap pool is nice and clean, there is a small diving area and a play pool. The locker rooms are clean and you can rent a locker for free with a collateral like a car key or ID in exchange for a key to a random locker. The showers are equipped with liquid soap, and the bathrooms are clean. We tried the steam room, didn't get a chance to do the hot tub and the sauna yet but those all looked great too. You can get a punch card at a discount if you're not sure membership is the way to go to try them out. There is a small gym area for weights and cardio machines. They offer classes too so check them out online through the Westminster Activities Book. Really glad that we joined the membership - we now have access to all the Westminster Rec Centers. Super reasonable and it goes back to the city and our community.
