Lori Campbell· a month agoExcellent gym with well-maintained equipment and a clean environment. The staff were supportive and friendly, and the atmosphere was energetic and motivating. A great place for regular workouts.
Tim Mcrae· 5 months agoWent to the Englewood Gun Show at this location. It was a smallish event but they almost completely filled the Gym with vendors. Great prices. Well worth the $10 admission. The Gun Show admins need better signage outside. It was hard to know where to enter.
K G· 8 months agoHere today, 11/8/25 for the soccer final games. There is not enough cover from the sun. So many families out here right trying to find shade. We are not allowed to bring our own shade coverings or tents, only the coaches. If we are paying in taxes for this pack, then we should be allowed to bring our own tent to stay cool and not get sun burned. I will be bring this up to the county to either build more shade cover or allow us to bring our own coverings.
Staphany Miro· a month agoAdult softball fields are always prepped and ready for our games. But a special shout to to Dylan who goes above and beyond for our league nights and weekend tournaments.
Your Local Guide :· 6 years agoAmazing place for fishing, tennis, and just your daily sports activities! Saw a hawk rip a bass right out of the water and tip him To shreds in a tree! Florida nature at work, remember it’s strictly catch and release. Great catches here though! You can really reel some big ones! It’s the place with the tennis court on the side of the pond.
