jennifer robertson· 10 months agoBeen a regular here for years. They put on amazing camps for the kids and have a wonderful after school program. The staff is always so pleasant and helpful. It truly is a "community" here. Couldn't be more thankful for the services offered and the care provided.
Joyce Wilhelm· 7 years agoWent to the November Craft Fair at the community center. The building was old but very well maintained. Crafts for sell in every room and down the halls too.
Daniel Johns· 3 years agoReceived a parking ticket, even though community center was closed, and no sign where I parked said hours. Thanks Destin for a great New Years with your lovely cash grab 👍🏼💰
Hudson Vickers· 2 months agoWhen it’s closed put closed on the website, it would’ve saved me a 20 min drive
rohseph rohnanno· a year agoOne of the only places in Destin that has an indoor basketball court but hardly ever have open gym anymore. On the rare occurrence they do you’re lucky if it’s more than an hour. I called and was told one time, arrived and was told another, called again then was told another. No one seems to know what’s going on that answers the phone.
