I love their outdoor pool area and the zumba classes!
We loved it - the facility was wonderful (and large!), staff always so kind (from walking in the front door to getting in the pool) and instructors very knowledgeable. I loved the focus on water safety and not just swimming. We can't wait to sign up again!
