I have been trying to get ahold of someone for the past few weeks to plan my childs birthday party. I filled out 3 forms in hopes someone would call or email me about planning the party. I have called and the receptionist said the person who normally does the planning is out for awhile and Andrea was filling in. He gave me her number and email and still NO RESPONSE! I gave this a two star because the first time I took my daughter swimming the front desk woman was very kind and polite. But planning a party here is darn near impossible.

We have problems with poorly-worded schedules and bad information given over the phone before. We have had many wasted trips. My son is 12 and loves swimming. He is a triathlete. I called today to make sure he could swim laps. I told them he was 12. They said yes, he could swim. They did not tell me that someone would be in his lane, that he did not have a lane to himself. My husband ended up make another wasted trip.

Do not come here in hopes to freely play, do splash diving/diving board flips or do most things you would do at any other pool. Strict staff enforce rules that you wouldnt see at most other pools. Overall an OK experience, however regulations do not allow for lots of things many people would hope to be able to do.

Our daughter loves being a part of the Eden Prairie Figure Skating Club. She has so much confidence and grace from her training there. Many of her good friends are skaters. Being involved with the club has been a great experience for our whole family.

As a visitor, for the ice rink, its pretty good. Mostly good views in the big rink. Ive had to watch games on the smaller rinks, though, and that is horrible. You feel completely ripped off paying to sit in those awful rinks.

The entry fee was low for a 15 month old to play on the four level climbing structure. They also have a large foam block building area with a small slide. It was just cleaned as we entered. We will be going there again soon.

Clean facility, pleasant staff, they have a little bit of everything youd want at a gym. The free weight area is a bit small, so sometimes you need to wait for the equipment you want.

This is a very nice community center. The basketball hoops could use an upgrade. The exercise equipment is in top condition. The pool is very well maintained.

I had a summer membership back in 2014, and again this year in 2017. Money well spent both times. Great and welcoming place to work out. Awesome staff.

Fantastic community resource. The new pool area complete with zero depth entry, kids area, hot tub, and waterside put it over the edge.

If I could give it zero stars I could. I was over charged and have cancelled my membership 3 times and Im still getting charged.

Fantastic aquatic center, great for very young children as well. Not much of a commons, it is more of an exercise center.
