I would actually say this is four and a half Stars. we go here regularly for classes for the children. It is a great way for them to try out different sports and activities without a long commitment, very important for five and eight year olds. I have not use the gym but it looks very well kept and there is a childrens area where your kids can play while you work out. It is always clean and well-staffed. The indoor pool has several water slides and play areas in addition to a lap pool. We have been to the outdoor Waterpark as well. Im not as big of a fan of that. It is very crowded with long waits for many of the activities. There is a nice snack bar with delicious soft serve ice cream. The people that come up to the pool in the summer sometimes seemed a bit sketchy. They also run the summer camps throughout Carmel as well as the after-school programs at the schools. Signing up for classes is easy and can be done online after creating an account. It would be cool if they sent a reminder e-mail out before your class session started.

I cant speak to much else aside from the water park, but this is one of our favorite summer activities. We typically go after 4 when the entrance rates are discounted and its a bit less crowded. The lazy river wasnt open on our last visit due to upgrades and repairs being made This place is always very clean and the staff is always super friendly. I appreciate that we are allowed a cooler with drinks and snacks, but their concessions area has decent options at great prices as well! The new playground and splash pad on the west side of the grounds is pretty stellar as well. The layout of the play area is different and interesting and encourages inclusive and imaginative play.

I miss it here! I used to come almost every day to use the fitness center. It is a clean, well maintained and inviting facility. My son always looked forward to visiting the Kid Zone and the nice ladies in there seem to genuinely care about the children being engaged, staying safe, and feeling welcome. Sue and Ebony were always quick to greet him by name and make him feel at home. My only gripe is with the hours of the Kid Zone (being closed between 1 and 4). My schedule has changed and I can no longer come in the mornings- I have to work out in the afternoon. If they ever decide to extend the childcare hours, Ill be back!

I really enjoy working out here, and can always find something to do - even if it is crowded. I am very happy with the new fitness class schedule for this season, as it has more class options in the evenings! Really excited about there being multiple barre classes now! One down side is that when it is crowded, there isnt much space to do free weights or any routine you may want to do. It would be great if you could access the classrooms that arent being used at that time, if you like to create your own workouts that might require a little more space.

Beware. People from neighboring communities are ruining this beautiful space. The price of admission needs to be raised. Pretty soon no one is going to want to come. Not enough chairs and the boogie board line takes an hour for 10 kids to get through. Stop people from bringing food and drinks in. Those things are sold inside the park. What will ultimately ruin this place is those from surrounding communities who dont live here and have no business being here. You dont want this kind of tourism.

I was recently visiting Indianapolis for a meeting and was looking for a place to play Pickle-ball. I found the Monon Community Center via Google search and I have to say it was a great experience. The Monon center is amazing and the Pickle-ball players were very welcoming and helpful. They have a $5 drop-in and play fee which was very reasonable for a day of Pickle-ball. This was by far the nicest Community Center I have ever seen and would highly recommend it if you are in Carmel, Indiana.

Great place to go with a well rounded selection of activities and workout equipment. The lap pool is great. The indoor track is fantastic for the winter. I would give it 5 stars if they upgraded their spin bikes. They are very outdated and dont work properly so it makes it difficult to train on them. Plus there are only 4.

I want to rate it less stars so maybe the gym wouldnt be so busy but this place is great! The park = awesome. The childcare facility = awesome. The lessons my kids have taken = great for young kids starting out without making a huge commitment. The gym and classes = great!

The community center is a great value. Large variety of classes, free weights, machines, track, pools, pretty much everything youd want to do. The facilities are very clean and well maintained. Oh and theres an outdoor water park! All this for a very reasonable price.

Ive been to hosted events at the center and it was clean and well run. Today I took the kids to the new park at the west entrance. It is a very modern climbing park with lots of levels and activities for all age groups. One of the best parks in the area.

Great price for a great work out center. It almost seems too good to be true. The pool is fantastic, good variety on work out equipment. Havent tried the basketball courts or the classes but they look fantastic as well.

It used be a great Aqua park, (2015) but this season is crowded and full with mostly non local residents, predominately African- Americans. I have concerns about the park crowds and in the future I wont be visiting.

The beautiful Monon Trail is a great way to experience the gorgeous outdoors at the Community Center. The Center also has a bike rental system available for public use with a fee.

The nature walks are great!! And the amount of classes and things to do at the Monon Center is astounding. Plus all the wildlife there keeps the walks interesting.

Absolutely best community center. Great gyms, awesome water park, and outdoor park. Best part though is their staff. The staff is really friendly and helpful.

I am not a member to the Monon but I use the trails and walkways quite often ... I walk inside the center to use the restrooms and its always clean
