Provo Recreation Center

"Have been working out here for almost two years and love it. People are friendly and keep to themselves which is nice sometimes. Only annoying thing is when it’s super busy and you have no chance to use any of the machines, but that can be avoided by coming earlier then you usually do. Always clean, equipment is rarely broken. I like the treadmills with tvs on it I like watching the office when I run. I have no opinion on the pools I never really use them. Gym is great tho would recommend."

"Love the rec center! The pools are great, lots of fun slides for kids and I love the lazy river. I also love the indoor track and treadmills. I do sometimes wish there were more treadmills, as they do fill up pretty fast, but nonetheless, there is a lot of equipment and you don't usually have to wait too long for a machine to fill up. The classes are also a great resource, and you can do day passes or memberships, depending on what you're looking for!"

"It was pretty disappointing. My wife and kids wanted to go play basketball and volleyball. We called and they told us that the volleyball started at 5 but it actually started at 6. They allowed 2 teams of older people own those courts the whole night. They wouldn’t allow us to play and the staff even told us they can stay on the court the whole time. We pushed our way in for a game and the players were absolute jerks. I know the jerk part isn’t on the rec center. When we got there the basketball hoops were all full and they allowed a full court game in the middle even though their signs say absolutely no full court games. My wife said that every stall in the woman’s bathrooms were out of toilet paper. They had to go outside and find some somewhere. It was my first time there and I expected a lot more. My wife and kids go there often and so I was considering buying a family pass but after what I saw last night I doubt I ever go back. It is supposed to be a good place for families to go but I wouldn’t do it again."

"Great rec center with lots of equipment, indoor track, exercise classes, childcare for young kids, indoor playground that is open to the public only during specific hours, indoor and outdoor pools, and an indoor competition pool, billiard tables, indoor basketball courts, racquetball courts, and outdoor skate/skateboard park. There is something for everyone! My kids love the indoor playground and indoor pool. The indoor pool has a hot tub (only for 15 years and older), lazy river, pool that is 3-4 feet deep, climbing walls over a pole, and a water play place. There are two large indoor slides but they aren't always running. I personally did not have great experiences with the childcare center when I tried it. I've known people who had good experiences with it. 9 out of 10 of my experiences with indoor swimming lessons for my kids were satisfactory to quite good. The 1 out of 10 was terrible (my child in the youngest child group nearly drowned while the teacher had her back turned to the group while she taught one child. I yelled to get the teacher's attention while the lifeguard watching the pool did nothing. The head lifeguard was very apologetic afterward. I was constantly vigilant watching all my kids swimming lessons after that.). So I'd say the swimming lessons are likely going to be fine, but be watching if you have young kids taking lessons for their safety because there is not great supervision."

"Fantastic rec center. Basketball courts weight room upstairs track rock climbing so much more!! I stopped for a shower and swim. Outstanding shower plenty hot water and extremely clean. Day pass for $6.00"
