I visit Whitney Ranch Recreational Center to take my 11 year old son for his basketball practices. Parking is generally pretty open. The facility seems to be very well kept up. The basketball courts in particular are very spacious, and in good condition. I love that they have two sets of water fountains and restrooms available for easy access. They keep it very very very cold in that gym though! So if you're not running around playing to keep yourself warm, and you're a spectator like myself... bring a sweater! read more

On duty management, evening of 6/1/26, was completely rude. Tried paying for a class for my child and was instead lectured about the facilities liabilities. This park & rec facility has consistently had problems with their payment system and then find it appropriate to blame the customers who fund their paychecks. Avoid human interaction with administration at the front desk at all costs. read more

The indoor pool is the bomb! Only problem? It's always so busy with schools and scuba and swim teams etc. I still find a way to get my swim time on but it can be difficult. The guards are nice and always watchful. It's a safe place. read more

I was checking out recreation center by my place to get information and front desk clerks were very resourceful. Now I know where to go for outdoor slide on summer time. :) read more

The internet incorrectly stated this place had a pet friendly cooling station and they do not and never have

The amenities fits me best. The customer service is outstanding. I normally go there to utilize the exercise equipment and play some basketball. In occassions, I too go on hikes therefore this is a perfect location to do just that. read more

New here it was a nice place for the kids and they provide lifejackets if you forget yours at home and they have a snack bar lockers that cost a quarter !! read more

Customer Service is always informative and courteous. Site is great, easy access to local parks and trails. Parking is exceptional.

Great rec center for kids and adults alike! My kids love to take classes here---especially the swimming and basketball program. Always clean and well staffed. read more

Solid rec center, mostly just go for the tennis courts- they're spacious, have plenty of nearby seating, have a shaded bench between courts, plenty of picnic tables surrounding, lights for evening games, and there are several of them. Parking has never been an issue, and I appreciat that despite the nearby pool and schools there aren't a ton of kids running around. Everything is also very well maintained, which is noteworthy. read more

This review is just for the tennis courts--- as I did not go into the Aquatic center. I was in town for a week, and I was able to make it out to the courts 4 times. Each time I came, the 14-ish (I think) courts were pretty much empty. At most, 4 courts were being used. The courts looked brand new, I was told by a resident that it was built about a year ago. For 1 year old courts, they were up-kept pretty well. And each court had it's own set of lights. I definitely love these courts! I wish there were courts like this back home! read more

I have been coming here for several years to go to the Tap and Jazz adult class with Lori Day. She is FANTASTIC!!! She really knows her stuff but she doesn't make her pupils feel incapable. She has been doing this for a long time, so she knows just how to instruct her pupils. I also sometimes go to the Monday/Wednesday/Friday exercise classes- also taught by Lori Day. She has a really great group (mostly of women, but the occasional man signs up for a session and he is always made to feel welcome). The women are friendly and well-informed and it almost feels more like a club than a class. The staff here is always friendly and helpful. They have an activity card that you can earn stamps and redeem for things. They have both outdoor and indoor pools so that you can keep swimming all year. The outdoor pool is a normal public pool complete with fun things for the little ones and slides. They have an adjacent dirt area with a track where people ride their bikes, but I haven't been there so I can't say more than that for it. read more

The Outdoor pool is a must do for the summer if you live in Vegas. It's great for children and even adults. The only down side is that there is limited loungers and chairs. If you don't get there early you'll be sitting on the ground. Still full for all ages. read more

What great fun on the cheap! The outdoor pool is now open for the summer and it's only $4 for adults, $3 for kids, and you have in and outs as well! Just ask the cashier to get your hand stamped before you leave. To get to the outdoor pool, drive your car around the back. You can park in the front, but it's a long hot walk to the entrance. (The entrance in the front takes you to the indoor, year-round lap pool. That pool is $3.) There are lockers in the dressing rooms. They are only $0.25 each, and only take quarters, but once you reopen the locker you have to put in another quarter. Lockers aren't even really necessary bc lots of people just leave their stuff out by their chairs or loungers. Not too many umbrellas or other shade, but if you come early when they open at 11am you should be good. We got there at around 1pm and were still able to score two loungers, but had them in the sun. They have two waterslides. The green enclosed tube one is faster but shorter, and there's always a longer line for it. The white one is open top and the longer slide but you don't go as fast; there's also a shorter line for this one. We went on the green slides about 10 times. It's so much fun! Lay down flat and arch your back to go faster! There's also a mini lap pool that goes from 3' to 5'. But kinda hard to swim laps bc so many people in there. On the other side there's a huge kiddle splash zone. You can bring coolers and food with you. I even saw people bringing in Little Caesars! The snack bar has hot dogs and sandwiches ($2), nachos ($4), even pickles ($0.50), ice cream, and Twinkies. So if none of that appeals to you, bring your own food or go out and eat and come back. There's a large shopping mall closer to the 515 fwy and Sunset that has every imaginable chain restaurant you can think of; we had In N Out. :D It was not that packed as we went on a Friday. I imagine it's much more busy on the weekends. Don't forget your sunblock!! read more

First things first, my kids had a blast! The pool was fun, FULL of lifeguards and provided hours of entertainment. The employee and the snack bar was extremely pleasant:) She accommodated our 50 million extra request:) We did get to the pool right at opening, so we were able to snag a table/umbrella! If you want a table and umbrella, get there early... They go first. The only downside;( The check in!!! Oh my lord! First they ask you your last name (Mind you it is loud, so she cannot hear you;( So you have to re-spell it, over and over... Then if she cannot find your name (Which was the case, most of the time) she then searches by your phone number! Imagine the line with kids running around and the heat, fun, fun! Just get your license out and hand it over first thing! Save yourself and the 20 ppl behind you some time. It literally takes 5-8mins per person, for a $3.00 transaction. NOT very efficient on park and req's part (The employee is NOT to blame.) Again visualize 20 guests (And their kids) in front of you waiting 5-8mins per guest... Way to lengthy!!! read more

I started yoga at Whitney Ranch for the first time. They have great prices and I loved the yoga instructor, I even invited a few of my friends to join. I ended up taking 12 weeks of yoga and it helped my flexibility and it really helped my breathing when I go to the gym now. She has morning classes and evening classes and she knows how to push you to do your best. Just wanted to say thank you Nav, you're awesome!!! Plus, the staff there is very friendly and welcoming. read more

Whitney Ranch Recreational Center - Nav, my Yoga instructor... - Recreation Centers Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

I'm only reviewing the Aquatic center for this place, as I haven't been to the outdoor pool or the rec center. (Was winter.) Sooo, I'm a fan. They have a 10 lane lap pool. Already sold. The downside, is that depending on what time of day it is, a majority of the lanes are closed of for swimming lessons, sports, etc. I've found that going in the morning (around 7-ish) on the weekday is a great time if you just want to jump in a heated pool and swim laps to your little hearts content. The people that go to the pool are pretty friendly...but I went in the morning when older people tended to go. And you know, they are always nice. The staff was also extremely nice and helpful. A few of them actually remembered the names of my husband and I after we had been going there a few weeks. It's really awesome when people take the extra effort to do that in the service industry. It's more personable and makes you feel welcome. If you come in on Sunday right when it opens at 1 p.m., it usually is fairly empty as well. The locker rooms are clean and well kept too. I like the place. To bad I have moved, or I would have kept going. read more

Stopped here the other day to pick up my race packet for a 5K that I'm participating in. Plenty of parking and the inside of the facility was nice and clean. read more

Whitney Ranch Recreational Center - fun day today, park is clean, quiet and safe - Recreation Centers Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

Best tennis courts in town. Hate to even tell people, they are so good. Play many league matches here, practice matches, and pick up matches for fun. Well maintained, always clean, great nets.... Only positive experiences. read more

Overall this is a nice rec. center my kiddos have taken swimming lessons here for about 3 months now. The rec. Center is small but nice and clean as for the lessons they are decent. The instructors are fairly young but they are kind and really nice to the little ones. If you are looking for your little one to be more comfortable with the water then this is a good choice. For the older kiddos I'd suggest private lessons or another option as the classes are just not long enough for the amount of kids they get and focusing on each one to learn how to swim is more difficult for the young instructors. read more

This location is one of the best for kids swimming lessons. The pool is very well maintained and the staff here are friendly. They have the patience that is needed to teach kids pool and summer safety. The cost is more then fair considering the level on instruction the kiddos are given. They keep the classuctor sizes small, so they are more manageable. I have been impressed with each lifeguard, instructor, and staff member along the way. read more

This is for the outdoor pool only. We went on hot Friday and it was a great way to cool off in the summer heat. This pool is especially great for kids as there is a large wading play area for toddlers with spray features, a mushroom like fountain and small slide and larger slides for older kids. I had kids ages 2-18 with me and they all loved it. I especially liked most of the play area was shallow enough that my 4 and 5 year olds could play safely and independently. They have a good number of life guards and they were observant and professional. The facility is clean and well maintained. You can bring in snacks but the snack bar food was really reasonably priced, $1.50 hot dog or 1 for ice cream bar. Although there is seating, nit enough for the space of number of people. I think I'd bring my own chair next time. The cost was good $2 for kids, $3 for adults. Highly recommend. read more

Holy cow! So much better than the Henderson Multigeneration Pool. They have more slides, bigger space for the kiddies to run around, more fountains, a jungle gym in the middle of the pool, a roped off deep end and the lifeguards are cool as heck! We were there for almost 5 hours and it seemed like only 2. You can bring your own lunch and the cost is only $3 for adults and $2 for kids 3-17. The only drawbacks were the lack of chairs and shaded space. Get there right when it opens to get a killer spot under the few umbrellas...and its pretty far from my house. Still...its worth the drive. We will definitely be back on my next day off :) read more

When arriving you have to pay at the front entrance. You can barley even see the person taking the money or hear them. I told them my son was 2 and she still charged me for him even tho it says 2 and under is free. Adults are $4. Then when you walk in it smells like piss. It's actually pretty gross. The locker rooms aren't very clean either. There isn't many shady places to sit. It's definitely changed a lot since I went there as a kid. Next time I think I'll just take him to the water park for night swim. read more

This is for the outdoor pool- A decent public pool in my area of town. It costs $4 for an adult to swim for the day. You can buy a summer pass for around $30 I believe. They area around the pool is very spacious, maybe too much lounging room. The pool could have been made a little bigger like some of the other newer public pools. With that said it does fill up quickly so get used to being crowded. read more

I love this rec center. The activity pool is one of our two favorites. It is the closest one to our house, which makes it convenient. I love their new window where if you have a Swim N Trim Pass, you can bipass the rest of the line! This gets you in faster and with a better opportunity in seating. Be warned, people line up super easy. read more

Such good, clean fun. HUGE pool, fun slides, great for the kids; I love this place.

We went there a few weeks ago and the floor of the pool was disgusting. Also, the indoor pool felt super cold, and it was not just me, ppl were complaining and little kids were shaking in the water til they got used to it. We went there next week and the water in tge pool was still cold. We decided to go to the Multigenerational Center and the indoor pool was so nice, not cold at all. I was very disappointed at the Whitney Ranch indoor pool. read more

Cool place on a hot summer day

Great place to bring the little ones! It was clean and not too crowded when we visited.

Worst website . Can't even login . So confused . It took me 1 hour to figure out the programs.

I moved near the Whitney Ranch Recreational Center last year and I have just now begun to use the facilities. I am currently taking a Gentle Yoga class with Nav and I love it! I give her five stars! I also purchased a fitness room pass for a month to try it out. So far, so good. It would be nice if it were open later on Friday, but that's OK. The equipment seems to be new and in good working order. Bathrooms are clean. The people working the front desk are friendly and helpful - nice kids. Haven't tried the pool yet. I also like the hiking trail behind the center. read more

For the price, ($4 for adults, $3 for kids under 12) this was a great way to enjoy the sun. There was no shortage of lifeguards, even if there was one or two that had a bad attitude, for the most part everyone there was very friendly and helpful. There also was a bit of a shortage of tables under umbrellas but everything was pretty spread out so you didn't really feel claustrophobic. Overall, I'm very pleased and plan on coming back several times before the end of summer! read more
