This is the absolute worse pool for anyone that has any strength issues. I know a lot of…read moregrandparents take their grandkids swimming in the summer. This pool doesn't have regular ladders to get out of water. The steps are built into the wall, too far apart, very hard to maneuver, my shins got totally bruised after trying to climb my way out. Someone told me that on Tuesdays they bring out a regular ladder ‍, only Tuesdays! Very strange!

I visited this pool 7 years ago and when back in the area visited again. My 5 star review still…read moreholds! The kiddie pool was large and had some fun water features. There are plenty of chairs. The only thing I would wish for is a little more shade but it made me get in the Water more to cool off. The staff was friendly.

The beach is spotless, with no trash anywhere. You'll see a few hair ties and bottle caps, but…read morenothing major.

Sandling is a man made beach within Falls Lake State Park. They charged $10 for the holiday…read moreweekend entrance fee. Sandling is accessible to the fire pits for barbecuing and is very small. Perfect for families and small children. You can access the beach on Creedmoor Rd. This was the perfect place for a convenient beach day 4th of July weekend. It saved me the 4 hour trip to Bear Island. I arrived early around 10:30 a.m. and there were no crowds. We camped out near the showers and bathrooms. This park is perfectly lined with trees in abundance. Perfect for barbecuing. We enjoyed our morning picnic and the water was very relaxing. I appreciate how clean the sand area was and the garbage was well organized as well. I brought my mother who is 72 and I had concerns about the proximity of the restrooms and showers and overall access. I was relieved to discover how convenient the beach access was for those with mobility impairment and disabilities. There are no pets allowed and no alcohol permitted. I watched the park rangers escort someone with a pit bull to the parking lot to return home and a woman was asked to dump out several beer cans. You have been warned. They run a tight ship here. I plan to return throughout the remainder of the summer months.

For children who want a real-life experience learning about life in the late 1700s and are…read morecomfortable camping, we highly recommend Camp Flintlock. When I picked up my son he said, "it's the best camp that I have ever been too." He has been to residential YMCA camp, Boy Scout Camp, and 4-H camp. He said, "the food was great." He enjoyed the stories, the cooking, and capture the flag. His only complaint was the session was too short. He would have liked to stay at Camp Flintlock longer. He wants to return again next summer.

If you want to learn about the Revolunary War this is the activity for you !!!…read moreI did not go to the campsite, they came to my childs school. It was a great program. Awsome !! Dressed in time period clothes, the people that came were nice, informative, and very polite. When working with kids that is not always easy, but they handled it with ease. Kept the kids interested, lots of fun things to do that were even interesting to me. They kept it at a level that was just right, the music was fantastic for beginning to end. These fouth graders had a blast and were kept entertained the whole time. My favorite however was the candle making, tho i did learn something at every station as i am sure every child did also, it was the candle making that was my favorite. The children were able to take home the candles, and many other items they made through out the day while the learned that lesson. Which included candle making, necklace making, rope braiding, old time games, dancing, quill and ink writing, and dress up(both boys and girls) There was a total of about 7 stations all together not including the begining and the end. They do offer a gift shop for all price ranges most not over ten dollars. I figured this went to support their program. The ending they shot two cannons and had pop quizes with prizes for the kids. Both the beginning and end children were able to hear the fife and drum, coming and leaving. I was happy with the whole experience. If you get a chance, really do check them out. http://campflintlock.com/

This gym is a place of healing and motivation for every one of those moments in life. In my short time here, my one month membership was welcome. (Only passing through.)

The coaches have modifications for every exercise. You push your time if you want. Lifting. You work on what you want to work on. All the while, being surrounded by amazing people doing the same thing. I meet new gym friends every class. This is that place you've been looking for, to get your body moving.

I had got overweight and lazy as an adult and knew I needed to try something. Gym membership wasn't enough. Running wasn't enough. Yoga wasn't enough. Small-group weight-training was THE difference maker. I've come 180 degrees on my opinion on strength training: it's not just for gym rats and bodybuilders, it is essential for human flourishing. Our bodies need to struggle against heavy weights - and if you are in the area there's no better place to struggle with an awesome crowd of people than at CrossFit Angier.
