Highland Recreation Complex

"I've been coming here with my daughters for years. Today my daughter went up the big slide and at the entrance there was human fecal matter flies and urine covering the slide. She said that there was a man inside! We called the main office and someone came right away.. Be careful if you take your children here!! They definitely need to check this out every morning, before children are traumatized or injured!!"

"We love this place! The indoor play area is great, suggest taking advantage of the times blocked for younger kids the first time if possible if you have 3 and unders. Weekends and rainy days can be quite busy with bigger kids. Also look for all the kid events, arts, sports, music, holiday events, etc. All very reasonably priced esp for residents who become a member. We haven't done the water park area yet but it looks amazing too!"

"It would be a 5 if it weren’t for the lifeguards, the facilities are clean, they have great programs for kids sports, and the pool is nice too. I will say this whole 2 session pool day nonsense isn’t cool, we’re happy to pay more to not have to leave for 30 minutes midday. They say it’s to give more people the opportunity to come to the pool but the people at the second session are typically the people from the first. Would I trust any of the lifeguards to put a bandaid on a kiddo let alone watch over them in the water? Definitely not. The guards here are probably the worst I’ve ever come across. To the point where it’s actually dangerous sometimes. My family and I have been coming to the pool here in the summer for a few years and unfortunately the lifeguards have never improved. They are constantly sending kids that are too small down the slides, talking with other guards and socializing in the guard chair not paying attention to what’s going on around them, letting kids sit at the bottom of the slides, and letting kids run on the slick pool deck. I understand that the guards are high school kids, but they definitely have no concept of how quickly a small kid can drown or how seriously injured someone could get out here. Luckily we’ve taught our kiddos water safety and to never get in the water here without us. It’s truly a shame, the guards at splash harbor and the ymca that used to be up the road were way more attentive and actually enforced safety rules. The picture attached is from 7/4/2022. Kids were running and jumping into the pool at the bottom of the slides and the girl in the guard chair could care less."

"Too my kids here to release dinner energy while on vacation. Only cost 6 dollars per child to play. Clean area, indoors so it was in AC (a huge plus during the FL heat!) A half wall surrounds the address so it is easy to ensure the kids do not leave the area with out your knowledge. A HUGE 3 story twisty slide was the highlight to my kids. Would HIGHLY recommend this to any parents needing to a place to allow their kids to burn some energy. I also saw a splash pad, basket ball courts, a gym etc at the center although I did not use these areas."
