Macomb Township Recreation Center

It has a lap pool, “lazy river” that goes pretty fast, a whirlpool connected to the lazy river, a mini obstacle course type thing (walking across “logs”), a splash pad, and a pretty big slide! The only downsides are it’s very loud, there were a ton of people, and they had to shut down the main part while we were there to sanitize. But we will be back!

This is a beautiful gym. Well worth the money. They have programs for everyone including seniors. The senior rate starts at age 55. I wish I'd have known about this place sooner.

For $16 the area should be open to both kids and adults during swim lessons. Expecially when there is a whole bunch of teenagers allowed in. This experience was absolutely terrible due to the overly strict lifeguards that take there jobs way to seriously about a 2 year old swimming in the kids area!

Very safe and clean! We signed up as seniors so we can walk (and talk) on the inside track

First time visiting and will not be returning. First, I was shocked that you have to live in Macomb Township rather than County to get the resident rate, but that was ultimately my misunderstanding. My son and I came in to swim - he is 7 and 4 feet tall exactly. We went down the slide numerous times with different lifeguards, but then one lifeguard stopped him saying he was all of a sudden too short and made us walk down and told us we could not return. Then, my son scraped his leg on the side wall tiles, so I quick propped him up on the edge for him to get off the wall because the current was continuing to push him into the sharp edges. A guard yelled at me saying I had to put him back into the water! Then, my son wanted to try the logs but was nervous about the depth of the water. I got in to spot him, and the guard told me only he could be in the water. I understand safety protocols, but it felt like we were just constantly being yelled at. Do not recommend bringing young children, it was very discouraging for the both of us.
