    Nope, don't come to this park. Every other time we come to this park there is poop all over the playground equipment. If you're feeling adventurous you can wander around the park into one of the several homeless establishments. If you would like the use the pavilion you're out of luck, the locals have reserved it at $110 a day indefinitely. It's a nice playground but I do not recommend you let your children play on it.

    Dog park. Fenced all around

    Nice place to walk. Lots of trees and mature landscape. People watching galore. Quite a few homeless people, but nobody bothered me.

    $20 for an all day pass to gym, pool, sauna, steam room, yes please! I went on a Sunday to go lap…read moreswimming when Moana Springs pool had a swim meet going on. I basically have the entire pool to myself and the hot tub. It was so nice, I got 2 miles of swimming in and a nice hot shower. This is definitely a must for Mom to go enjoy herself when she has some free time. 20 bucks is worth it.

    I've been a member of the Caughlin Club for four years and I'm what you'd call a heavy user --…read moregoing five days a week religiously that entire time -- so I feel like my review is about as fair and accurate as you'll get. The bottom line is that I went to this gym because it's close to my house, has a beautiful and well kept outdoor pool that's heated year round, and a traditional sauna which is somewhat hard to find these days. But the reality is that I didn't use those amenities very often. What I did use often was the weight room and the woman's restroom. I can say with confidence that the weight room is substandard, bordering on dangerous, and the woman's restroom is also substandard and generally unclean. Neither Marlene, the manager, nor the main staff are very pleasant or friendly. Marlene seems to pick the members who she likes and I've never been on that list for whatever unknown reason. I'm largely ignored by them all unless they need something from me. I once overheard Marlene asking another staff member about me one day when I accidentally spilled my water and asked for a towel to clean it up. The younger staff are much friendlier and more helpful. Back when they had a suggestion box, I filled it out often asking basic things like, why don't you get a hand dryer in the women's restroom that actually works instead of providing Kleenex to dry our hands (I'm not kidding), or why not provide updated leg machines that every other gym has so I don't have to spend several minutes setting up or fighting over the single Smith machine. They eventually took away the suggestion box. I'm comfortable financially so I don't mind the $130 monthly membership if I'm getting value, but obviously I don't feel like I am. Each February we pay an additional $150 for general maintenance that goes to pool upkeep or a new sauna heater which I understand are needed. But then it goes to painting the weight room. Not needed. It doesn't go to getting new weight room equipment which hasn't been updated since the 1990s. Or apparently providing basic cleaning supplies for the restroom. Did I mention it's always 75 degrees in the cardio and weight rooms? I don't even keep my house that warm. Wait until summer when it's 85 degrees in there. There were two last straws which caused me to cancel my membership. The first was that the maintenance man always seemed to find himself in the women's restroom/locker room in the morning when I was working out. From time to time I use the restroom or wash my hands after using the equipment or holding the weights and there he'd be, lurking. The second straw was much more serious. One morning, when I was doing my laborious hip thrust set up, because we don't have any leg machines or hip thrusters, I was carrying one of the old fashioned weights from the 1990s era weight racks (which is sharp on its end) onto the Smith machine (also from the 1990s) and I nearly cut the tip of my finger off. Blood was pouring from my finger tip so I grabbed a tissue that I had in my pocket, gathered my things, and hurried up the steps and out of the gym. I was going to tell someone at the front desk on my way out that I was sorry, but they'd have to clean up my blood and sanitize the equipment. But as usual, no one was at the front desk. I can't take it anymore. I'm done and going to Anytime Fitness off Caughlin Parkway. That gym isn't fancy, but it's got updated equipment that feels safe and the restrooms seem pretty clean and private. And so far, I've been treated like they're happy I'm there. That's a big step up from the Caughlin Club.
