I came to Heritage Tennis Club after seeing a postcard for an Open House, and I am glad that I did!…read more The pros and Club Manager at the Open House were all very friendly. The event was also very organized. The indoor courts which we played on, were assigned according to level (kids, beginners, intermediate, etc.), as well as a court for Cardio Tennis. Steve (pro), was assigned to my courts, and he was great to work with! We did a few drills and played a series of casual tiebreakers as others joined. I also spoke with the pros and Club Manager about their traveling leagues. Unfortunately, they do not have weekend leagues, but they do have daytime leagues, in addition to a Friday night mixed doubles league. Drills are also provided on Sunday afternoon and Monday night. There are programs for kids and juniors. They also offer Cardio Tennis 3x a week. The indoor courts were in nice condition. It was very hot inside however, although the club did all they could, to make things as cool as possible.

It's a pretty big indoor space with a bunch of courts it doesn't feel cramped even when it gets busy. They also have racquet rentals which were super affordable, so it's easy to just show up and play without overthinking it. The booking system is a little different though. Courts are in 20-minute increments and if another group is waiting, you might have to rotate out once your time is up. At first I thought it was kind of weird, but it actually keeps things moving and gives everyone a chance to play. The place itself is clean and well maintained, and overall the pricing is really reasonable for what you get. Definitely a solid spot if you're trying to do something active with friends without spending too much. I'd come back!

My friends and I were in the mood for some badminton and we randomly found this place /'d decided…read moreto give it a try. This is an indoor badminton space and is open all year round. It's huge, they have easily 8-10 courts. They offer racquet rentals at a reasonable price. The court booking is a bit different here. The courts can be booked for 20 mins. Any new teams that don't have courts can apply for any of the courts. Once your timer is up and a new team had bid for your court, you'd have to leave the court but you are more than welcome to grab any other court that is free. I found this a bit odd but it kinda works Overall, it's well maintained and the prices are reasonable.

In comparison to other gyms, I think the Pavilion Fitness Center has a great value. I tried another…read moregym that cost about the same amount (I pay $25/month for a student membership, 1 month free if you pay in full), and the amenities I received at the other gym completely paled in comparison to what I get here at the Pavilion. Here, I get free towel service, free fitness classes, free access to the indoor/outdoor pool and sauna/hot tub**, free access to the indoor track, and free locker rental (which comes with a lock, unlike some places where you have to bring your own). **Note: The Pavilion has closed down all of the aquatic facilities here for renovation for about a year. That means that the pool access that was supposed to come with my membership is no longer valid. However, I will say that they have been pretty accommodating about this; they are letting people cancel their membership without a fee due to the pool closings, and they are offering some discounts at nearby pool facilities as well. If you compare the Pavilion to a big gym like Lifetime Fitness, the big gym probably has nicer bathrooms/showers, is bigger, and is open at all hours, but places like Lifetime also cost much, much more. Personally, I don't need a gym that is open 24 hours because I just go after work, and I like not having to fight for the machines here at the Pavilion. Even on its most crowded days, I can usually get the machine I want or only have to wait a few minutes to grab it. I should mention too that I have seen several new machines at the Pavilion in the year or so that I've been a member here, so you can tell that they keep up-to-date with the machinery. I also recently started attending the classes they offer with membership here. They are fun, and they don't get packed and crowded like some other workout classes I've gone to. I regret not coming to these classes sooner! My only complaint here is about the shower process. Sometimes it takes a while for the shower to warm up, and I can't seem to get it to be as hot as I want it. Also, I kind of wish they would change their shower curtains and maybe install regular hair dryers rather than just those hand dryers. I'd also like for them to invest in some bigger towels so my butt doesn't hang out. That'd be great. But, these are pretty minor complaints and I'd rather live with this and pay the amount I'm paying than pay double for something only slightly nicer. If you're a resident of Elk Grove Village, I would definitely recommend gym membership here (although maybe wait for the pool to reopen if that's a factor for you). ---Update--- They got brand new showers - hurrah!

I buy a yearly "executive membership" for the gym and it is VERY affordable. Even though it is so affordable it is also really nice! I take my daughter to the childcare regularly and she enjoys it! The room is clean and the workers are nice. I try to take a group class once or twice a week. They have quite a few choices and I have found the class I love (a toning class). When in the gym I can always find a machine that I want to use. There are huge windows overlooking Langendorf park, so it is a beautiful view to look at while exercising! The only thing I wish they had was an indoor pool. That would be amazing! Even without it, this place is great. Worth every penny.
