This rec center is an absolute beast. As someone who loves to work out at recreation centers and…read morehas been to many throughout her life, this one takes the cake as one of the cleanest, most modern, and largest. It has an indoor fitness pool, an outdoor pool (looks like mostly designed for families with kids), an ice skating rink, a huge weight lifting and cardio machine area, multiple group fitness rooms, and a full-sized basketball court (that they use temporary drapes to turn into multiple courts for pickelball or pick-up basketball). There's probably more I'm missing. I've never actually walked through the entire place. They have a ton of community and fitness programming for the area. From 8 to noon then 4 to 9 most evenings, they have different fitness classes going on. They aren't just your basics either. They have enough TRX bands to support TRX classes or some of their strength-based classes use workout areas they've had installed. They have lots of spinning bikes and classes the support them. I've never actually encountered any machine or part of the fitness center that didn't work. Everything is well-maintained, and I've never even encountered an empty cleaning spray bottle before. The biggest "issue" I've had is when the water tastes a bit off because the red-light says the filter needs to be replaced on the water fountain. Prices aren't cheap, but they aren't expensive either. When a yoga class elsewhere will cost me $40, it's only $11 here at Kettering. If you get one of their multi-class passes or a membership, it's even cheaper on a per-class basis. They have lots of kids camps and kids activities including some homeschooling group play classes and more. I haven't paid much attention to the kid things, but I know they have some! Great spread of bodies and ages here too. You'll mostly see older adults, and it's really refreshing to see a ton of different types of people instead of the college-aged adults. Everyone here is super friendly, and it's clear a lot of the community uses this place as a great place to see and hang out with friends while staying active. Huge parking lot, but if there's a lot going on (like a kid's hockey meet), there have been a few times I've been unable to find a single parking spot in this beast of a parking lot. Bathrooms are clean too.

I love the Kettering Rec Center! That place made my whole childhood and early teenage life THE…read moreplace to be kids. I feel it allows kids to try something/sport they may want to pursue as a lifelong dream but wouldn't know where to start. Basketball, Running, swimming, pickleball, volleyball, ice skating, ice hockey, and a lot more but I'm sure I've forgot. Just such a great place for the whole family to go. Who else misses when the middle school mascot was a wildcat?

Sycamore Trails Aquatic Center is a blast. We came here for a private event and my family…read morethoroughly enjoyed themselves. The surrounding area is peaceful and quiet and well maintained. Not only does the center have a great pool but also 2 water slides, diving board, a splash area, and water rock climbing wall. The different areas of the pool is divided by water ropes and there are lifeguards assigned to each area to ensure the safety of patrons. There are plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas if you want to read or take a cat nap while there. There is a picnic area and also a small playground and sand volleyball if that tickles your fancy. The bathrooms were spotless and had showers and changing areas. Due to the event being private we had catered food but there is a concession stand to buy snacks and food while at the center if need be. This is a great place to bring the whole family for water fun!

We visited for the first time this past summer and were huge fans. I was expecting this place to…read morefeel packed with how many people where there, but luckily the way this was built I never felt overcrowded. Maybe going during the middle of the week when people are at work helped. My kids loved the big pool area with all the fun tools and toys. They also likes the slide, but I would suggest they have a lifeguard who is comfort with kids and telling them to get in line be there because the poor kid who was there was not at all. I thought the price was good for non-residents. A little high, but I get it. I liked that they didn't care about you bringing food in and had plenty of grass, shaded spots to sit with my kids. We had a really great time and will come back again next summer!

Great family pool with a very friendly staff. This is going on the 4th year I've been a member here…read moreand what I really enjoy about this place is how friendly other members are here. It's been easy to make new friends and just strike up a conversation with other families. The people who play all the time on the volleyball court make sure to include new people in their games by rotating them into their teams. The social events planner does a great job as well with movie and DJ night, food trucks and even some events in the off season like footballs watch parties and trunk or treat in the pool parking lot. If you want a friendly social club this is the place to be. P.S- also as an odd side note this pool has the cleanest bathrooms I have ever seen in my 40 years of life at any pool.

We enjoyed tennis on the clay courts,, swimming and playing paddle tennis on the 2 courts situated on the property. People gathered in the hut and had lovely times as we watched others play paddle while warming by the fire. The inside of the Miami Vallen Hunt and Polo Club is very spacious with rustic beamed, vaulted ceilings and a stunning, stoned fireplace. The Christmas parties held there were breathtaking with a wide variety of stunning decor, year to year. The bar area is decorated in a classic "polo-type" feel providing a cozy setting to socialize. The living room is also a roomy setting for gatherings large and small. Every holiday the Polo Club hosted such wonderful parties as the venue lends itself to so many options. There is a large kitchen with plent of work space for a caterer or the kitchen staff. The men's and women's locker rooms are very attrative and quite roomy. Our son and daughter in law were married on the grounds with their reception up in the Club. A large tent blanketed the beautiful outdoor patio, for inclement weather wth stone walls and cushioned seating. The Polo Club was a perfect venue for the wedding with tons of privacy. It was a very cozy setting with our guests in awe of how charming the Miami Valley Hunt and Polo Club is.
