Attended a yoga class here. Class was great! Staff was friendly. Easy to find a parking spot on 6 oclock on a weekday. Win.

The instructor, Tylyn is FABULOUS! A "special needs" child is in good hands here... He learned a ton in just 30 minutes! He had a smile on his face the whole time! He's so excited for next week!

Fun pool for kids! Slide, lazy river thing, zero depth entry. Wish it were a little warmer though! My kids' lips turn blue.

We love the place, but today 9-22-18 was our worst day at buck center, the person thats in charge of the pool "DEAN" was very rude with our kids he does not know how to treat people or kids, he got in to my face like he was gona hit me, you guys should check the video cameras so you can see with your own eyes. We pay $40 for only one hour beacuse of him we have to live it was very uncomfortable with that guy.

This Rec Center has everything you'll need to get a good workout. In the front area, most of the equipment is available for getting your "workout" smile going on...Enter the stairs (found in the back) to have access to the Rec Center's track. When I go, I feel good after going the rest of my day. I also sleep well that night, too. Haha!

Went to a birthday party here for little kids having a swim party. The party room seems more like a dirty closet than anything else. The pool was good but the rest of facilities showed their 25+ year age

Great community recreation center. Friendly staff and a wide variety of equipment and activities. Has swimming lanes, a circulating pool, a wading pool for little kids, a therapy pool, and a hot tub. Also, a gymnasium, indoor running track, weight room, and cardio machines. Meeting rooms and on-site childcare. Can be busy on weekends and during swim lessons. Over all, a really nice facility.
