Dear MDCCP: I am such, a big, ((blushing)) fan. Big fan. I so appreciate the cleanliness of your pool and your seemingly followed Shower Before Swimming policy. It makes me muuuy happy to see the sun shining into the water from your big beautiful 1.5 walls of window. I am in awe over the attentiveness of your lifeguards, along with their drill rescues of dummies and their frequent scanning of the ((voice deepens)) bottom of the pool. Im fond of your fair fees ($3.25-$4 per visit or $32.50 per month) for access to the pool, gym, weights, and a multitude of exercise classes. I especially like how Ive encountered so many unique individuals in your facility in less than one months time. Im realizing you have many other fans because sometimes there is not even one available space in your parking lot nor your pool lanes. Clearly, we all think you are great. So, if loving you means street parking and circle swimming, then bring it baby.

My son & I (even our friends!! One of our friends got a membership after I took him here :) LOVE THIS PLACE!!... Its like a home away from home to us!! Everytime I come here I ALWAYS make at least ONE new pal lol... Whether its "Jessica" @ the front desk or a new member who just retired or other members who have been coming here forever EVERYONE is SO FRIENDLY & NICE...!! :) Its a GREAT way for our Portland Community to come together & take care of ourselves while connecting w/others in a time when technology rules king & interacting w/other human beings is not as popular as it once was :( The Classes I love esp.the h20 ones & the instructors are great working with you for your needs & skill level... I want to go EVERYDAY & TRY!! :) ITS NOT A WORKOUT ITS A HEALTHY PARTY!!! ☆☆☆☆

This facility has many good features. Including a pool and hot tub. My only grunt with the physical features is that the pool is a touch too hot for long endurance lap swimming. The down side is that this facility caters mostly to community members to get access for free or at a very low cost. So, most of the staff has to regularly deal with issues of benefits. The staff strongly tries to treat free/low cost members the same as full paying members. And this leads to failing to serve everybody. And is the buggest cause for the surley staff. The staff strongly works to ensure that low cost members and full paying members are treated the same.

Took my daughter here for swim lessons. The lessons were great, and the pool was nice. However, I had NO IDEA what was going on our first day. Didnt know whether or not we needed to check in. Didnt know where the facilities were. Didnt get much help from the folks at the counter either. "Change and go in" wasnt exactly the answer I was looking for. After that first day, things went ok since I knew what to expect.

If you want to swim laps in the early AM skip this place. There is a group of swimmers who breaks all protocol and take up 80% of the pool to help themselves to their own little private masters class. Its not listed on the schedule and diminishes everyone elses swim experience.

This place is not lacking in much. A good variety of classes, a nice pool for lap swim, a weight room and more. It gets busy during the summer and parking may be a problem but its easy enough to get to using public transportation. And the staff is always friendly and helpful.

Great community center for all ages and backgrounds. Emphasis on healthy exercises, including swimming pool, gym, yoga classes, dance, arts and craft. The best part is that my health insurance pays for it!

Best Zumba instructor in town!! Tuesday Thursday 5:30; Saturday 9:30. We samba, merengue, salsa and a lil hip hop moves. You will not be disappointed. Youll burn calories and have a blast!

Awesome. Its $5 to use all of the facilities. The gym is totally worth that and the pool is pretty nice. It has a large hot tub. Neither the pool or gym are very crowded ever.

My adult swim class was cancelled. No reason given, and I was already there. I was very excited to actually find a class that fit my schedule close to home.

Great pool for lap swimming, but used at many times for swim clubs only. Number of lanes for lap swimming varies throughout day and week

Great staff, would have been 5 stars but the weight gym isnt what it used to be in the 80s.

Slightly crowded at times but an all around good gym. If it had a sauna I would rate it a 5
