Indoor water park for kids and adults. 6.00 for adults and 4.00 for children. They have very good rates on swimming parties. We enjoyed our time here and will go again.

I had an August birthday party there in the room that was upstairs. The ac wasn’t working and different employees told me different reasons why and couldn’t fix/ help the situation. They ask you to send a picture and a message for a slideshow and we didn’t see our daughter’s picture until the end of the party.I did like the pool area being catered to kids and giving them a space to walk around and play in the water. It was not worth $200.

I speak mostly for the State Championship swim team the casc racers, that being said , the facility is fantastic! INCREDIBLE Hospitality, the coaching staff is the best, the employees are helpful and accommodating and very sweet...A great place to get healthy or watch your child learn how to swim and maybe become a part of incredible sport on a higher level

Wish they would provide lockers I didnt know until I got there and paid 10$ for two ppl that I had to bring my own lock? We had fun in the swimming area.with my 3yr old but They should have volleyball net or the basketball goal working to give bigger kids things to do.

Today was my 1st and last time visiting here. Especially the pool. There is no ventilation in the pool area so it is EXTREMELY hot inside which in turn intensifies the putrid odor of chlorine/bleach. The odor was so strong that I got a headache, that compelled with the smell of chlorine; I had to step outside the pool area and watch my grandkids from behind the glass doors. There needs to be some type of ventilation in there or something. Surely the smell of all that chlorine/bleach cant be healthy to breath in.

Really cool recreational facilities here, there is a water slide that goes out of the building, coils around and drops back into the indoor pool. basketball courts, shower rooms, vending machines, and rooms reserved for parties as well. 5 Star Rating

Nice new facility, nice people and there are so many options for healthy activities - an indoor walking track, high tech bikes step machines and treadmills - all brand new, top of the line. Their indoor pools make this a great place to bring the whole family. There are swimming lanes and a large whirlpool for exercising and an accessible water playground for the kiddos . Sunblock not needed. They have configurable indoor courts (basketball, volleyball, squash) and many community leagues use this space. And this is an affordable way to stay active this summer and a great resource for our area.

Great place for a swim or a pick up game of Bball... If your in a mood for a stroll, their indoor track is a great place for some out of the weather fitness.. We enjoy going to birthday parties. Overall a great place with a lil bit of info about the history of the land that it is on as well... I recommend this place to anyone and everyone.. With all the activities they have to offer including daddy /daughter and mom /sons dances Riverside park is a great place.

My daughter has been taking swim lessons and they are really helping her. She used to be scared of water and now they have her jumping in! The best part is its all indoors so we are able to do all this during the middle of the winter. I also love the indoor track! Its helping me train for running even when its super cold or wet. There are also basketball and volleyball courts.

Impressive facilities all the way around! The pool is well laid out with thought given to toddlers, youth, teens, adults, elderly, and disabled. Ball courts, jogging tracks, free weights, and spin classes with hours that will accommodate before or after work. The best part is that when we left, my kids were so tired they couldnt see straight!

Its a great place to swim but what stood out was my son which is 8 jumped into the deep end and it was 11 feet or 1w and the freaking lifeguard sat there n watched as I yelled no then the lifeguard said no. My son jumped anyways n the lifeguard just say there and dint move at all n said well I said no smh . I have to watch my boys closely because I dont trust them. Also when I was coming in its 4$ for kids kids and 5 for adults. I had 20.50 she made me walk across the hot parking lot with 4 kids . That was unacceptable. !!!! I think some of them are racist!!!

The upkeep on this facility is amazing. The exercise room is cleaned regularly, and you can almost always find a toliet that hasnt been used yet. On the nights were here we always observe the different cleaning being performed on the pools, from pressure washing to other rinses, scrubbing the walls and rails, etc. Yes, Ive seen them have to clear and shock the pools twice, but you cant prevent or change the accidents that kids have, only respond to them. I have seen the water tested several times when we are here and adjusted accordingly. The only complaint I could think of is that the lifeguards often look bored rather than alert, but I watch my own children.

Review №43

Love it.The swimming area is so outrageously hot you sweat the entire time youre in the pool area. No fans for the parents that sit while their children are at swim practice. If there is anyway possible to get a fan for the bleachers to make the wait time a bit more comfortable we would all greatly appreciate it. Thanks

This new water park is great! You can get day passes for just $5. They have a splash pad area that is lots of fun for smaller kids. For the big kids they have diving boards, a rock wall in the big pool, and a slide that goes out of the building and comes back in!

I love coming here but lately the pool water is getting colder and colder. The water seems to get murkier and murkier. I think this facility has some serious pool maintenance issues. When you ask about the water temperature they have like 3 different reasons but they always say it is “temporary.” 2 months later the temperature has only gotten colder. All kids in the kiddy pool have blue lips and chattering teeth. 1 hour is the max anyone can make it there before seeking a warm shower.Update 6 Jan 2019: still freezing. Lifeguards say it’s due to competition swimming. Kiddy pool cold but bearable and not fun.

Very convenient, I really like it here but I think my child picked up hand, foot, and mouth disease here. Very scary! I dont want to and hate to assume but this place was where we spent a lot of time at this summer. No where else. There are a lot of kids that come to play. Always looks clean but you just never know. We havent been back since, unfortunately.

This was our first time visiting Riverside Park. We came to swim, and I was very impressed with the layout of the swim park. The kiddie pool (1ft deep), has a variety of fun, interactive play stations for small children to swim in and around, to include an age appropriate slide. Further on, there’s a deeper part of the pool (3ft 6in) where older kids, or kids with floaties, can swim around. There’s a basketball hoop and a few balls for playing around with. Next to the deeper end, there’s a whirlpool that spins around (no floaties allowed in here, though). The big slide is open to those who are 48” or taller, and is well placed and seems safe with an abundant amount of railing up the stairs. There’s even a small walkway that starts shallow and goes deeper, I saw a few moms with little babies treading down this area, seems like a perfect way to introduce babies to the water as it’s seperated from the larger pools and out of the way from unwelcome splashes or kicks from other children. On the completely opposite side of the play park, is a deeper pool with swimming lanes, a diving board, and even an aqua rock climbing wall! Overall I’m very impressed with this facility. Very clean and organized. Lifeguards everywhere. It was only $4 per child and $5 for an adult for admission! Not bad! Does not seem overcrowded (we came at 10:30, they open at 10), and my daughter has enjoyed making new friends! We will definitely be back!

Review №78

My elderly disabled father came to watch my daughter swim and was told he had to buy a day pass to watch her swim. With a brace on his leg and his attire it was obvious he would not be participating in any activities and ended up leaving. While that put a bad taste in my familys mouth the night seemed to get worse. It seems every time we come to the pool the splash pool is closed due to an incident where they have to shock the pool. Since my daughter could not play in the splash pool we decided to ask if she could play in the lap pool since there was a sign up that said swim lessons in progress. When we confronted the lifeguard she was very rude. This trip was not customer friendly. Its a great facility with poor customer service.

Rules are stupid staff is rude wont even let someone who is bleeding use their bathroom like what the hell Im less than impressed and I think that the rules should be changed and some staff be let go for discrimination for racial comments about my mixed race and gossiping and pointing at people.

I purchased a family membership and work out several days a week. My sons swam and played basketball with no problems. But on today we where discriminated against. Upon entering the pool my 15 yr old was told he couldnt swim in gym shirts. Okay no problem. Then my 9 yr old was told the same thing. Still no problem. As we where changing to leave a family with 3 boys in gym shorts entered the pool so I waited at the door to see if they would be asked to leave but the were not. My friend and daughter stayed to swim. She texted me later and said they swam and had no issues, and other peopl swam in gym shorts. My children where the only ones tgat where told they could not stay. I did complain to front desk but nothing was done!
