Very nice facility. We had a Birthday party at the pool. It was very reasonably priced and had a nice party room with prizes for the kids.

The pool has a lot of closures for swim lessons and they're not posted on the website. In 2weeks I've been able to do laps one time.

Great gym at this location. I don't have children but there's plenty of youth activities. I'll be returning until I'm not longer resident in Littleton.

Looks serene and relaxing. Abundant to offer those looking to sooth their weary bones and joints after an arduous work week. The front desk could use a bit more of cheerful greetings to offer to visitors.

This pool is so cold! We did not explore the other parts of this rec center. The pool is not very kid friendly as it is so cold. My two year olds lips were blue within the first five minutes of getting in and we could not stay long because of that. Thought about asking for my money back because it was so disappointing.

Very clean place. However the front desk staff was so unkind and rude. The lady that signed me up seemed so bitter and unhappy. I haven't been back since I signed up. I really need to go back in and give them another chance.
