I honestly love the facility!! It was my first day however I was on my phone in the locker room, and this maintenance lady came in and yelled at me phones were allowed I was honestly shocked, I didn’t quite understand giving it’s my FIRST day. I said okay and finished my text she then proceeded to harass me. I completely understand the no phone rule!! As someone who didn’t know I feel like she could’ve approached me in a better way as someone who didn’t know the rules.

After having the opportunity to speak with one of the managers that runs the rec center I wanted to update my review of the recreation center.

The Breckenridge recreation center offers a wide verity of recreational activities. They have a large campus that offers indoor and out door sports, they have a variety of work out equipment to choose from including cardio equipment, machine weight training, and free weight training. There is a rock wall that looks to have various levels of difficulty for you to train your rock climbing. In addition to the work out equipment the recreation center is equipped with a lap pool, hot tubs, sauna, steam room, basketball courts, tennis courts, racquetball court, and an indoor track. Just like other rec centers they offer fitness classes that are held in private rooms. The recreation center hosts a verity of children's camps during the summer that involve indoor and out door sports, activities, and education. These camps seem to serve children of all ages and are a great way to get your child involved in sports. All of the out door facilities are open to the public while the indoor facilities require a membership. For the price of the membership you will not find a better value in Breckenridge. The staff at the recreation center are very friendly and do a good job keeping the facilities clean and addressing any issues you may have. The equipment in the facility is in good condition and seem to be replaced frequently.

Now onto my personal experience at the recreation center. My primary use for the rec center is to do weight training. Unfortunately the weight training area of the rec center is smaller than desired, considering the volume of people that use it. As stated earlier the equipment is in good condition and there is a verity of options to choose from, but because of the size limitations of the rooms and the accessibility requirements of the ADA the rec center can only fit so much equipment and so that means there are not many duplicates of popular equipment. Because of this it is often hard to find open equipment during peak hours and sometimes off peak hours. I have personally had to cancel or reschedule my work outs because of this. In my conversations with the rec center management they seemed very interested in hearing what I had to say but unfortunately the best solution I got was to try to pick an off peak time to schedule my work out. My hope is one day the rec center can do a facilities expansion project and build a bigger weight room, but until that day comes patrons should be aware that if they are wanting to work out during peak hours or peak season they may have to wait to use the equipment.

Now you may be wondering why 3 stars then? Well here is an explanation of how I do my ratings.

1 Star = Terrible avoid at all costs.
2 Stars = Ok there's lots of room for improvement.
3 Stars = Good
4 Stars = better
5 Stars = best ive experienced.

Over all the rec center is a good gym and because I don't use the vast majority of the facility I can only rate them on what I do use, the weight room. I have had the pleasure of being a member at some incredible gyms in the past that focuses on having as much equipment as possible and unfortunately our rec center cannot compete with them. If you go to the rec center you will be able to get a complete work out in and if you enjoy more of their facilities you will no doubt have a great time there.

Great spot all around. Multiple amenities indoor and outdoor. Free weights machines and cardio are stacked.

Haters will hate, but this is a great rec center

I love this place… It is a cornerstone of the community and has all of the machines classes and atmosphere that I could ask for in this beautiful town.

Dated facility and rather overpriced compared to other Colorado rec centers. They charge you $20 even if you are coming in super late just for a quick workout. Pool closes super early. Bathrooms and locker rooms absolutely filthy. Giving it two stars simply because it actually has a climbing wall - which I did like, but there were no clearly marked routes and the few that were marked were graded completely wrong. If you don’t care for the climbing wall - go to Silverthorne, that facility is WAY nicer and cheaper.
