“Great place to work out, not so friendly staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 29, 2012

Great gym and lots of equipment to use, not usually super busy and packed unless it's the beginning of the year (those doing their new year's resolutions and then stop coming a few weeks later) and the summer when it's packed with kids all over the place.

Con: The staff isn't the friendliest. Most don't greet you when you come in, even the older manager that is at the front desk. He'd rather do anything else than say hello. The trainers on the second floor don't seem the friendliest either.

Another con is they don't supply towels like the Roanoke Athletic Club does. And it would be nice if they had treadmills that had chargers for your ipod or iphone to charge or listen to music on like the RAC does but that's a minor con.

“Best deal for indoor and outdoor waterpark in central virginia”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2012

Best deal for indoor and outdoor waterpark in central virginia, rain or shine and you'll still have fun. Plus you don't have to be a member to use the gym facilities there either. Huge place, plenty to do, highly recommend. Only con is it gets really crowded over school summer holidays

“Great for kids, nightmare if you're big”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 25, 2012

If I had kids, I'd live there; however, I don't and the amount of children there was overwhelming to me. Still, it's a great indoor pool and I'd say it's worth a visit regardless.

“Friendly but a little inconvenient”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 9, 2012

As a former member I really miss this place. Not intimidating, very family friendly, good hours and always clean. The only part I hated was that it was so far away but besides that it beats all competition. The first time I saw it I was in complete awe!

“Small In Size, Big In Fun!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 24, 2012

Inexpensive way to get wet when it's hot outside. There's only 2 real slides outside in Splash Valley, 1 smaller slide, a nice children's play area, and somewhat of a lazy river, only without the tubes. The actual swimming area can get rather crowded, but it is still nice just to go get wet for an hour or two. The kids really seem to love it! Prices are cheaper after 4:00 p.m. I like that it is open to everyone, even those who are not members or residents of Roanoke County. Also, there is an indoor pool and some more water slides, another lazy river, a hot tub, and another children's play area, but there is a separate entrance and fee. It would be a lot better if both areas were open to the public for one price. They also have a well maintained and fairly priced snack bar with pizza, chicken tenders, fries, etc., and there is a Dip-N-Dots also located on the premises. It may be small, but it is still worth the price. Lots of fun for families.
