From the reviews

I was a guest here and found it to be friendly and complete. With numerous offerings. Visiting only the swimming area, there were pools for laps, general swimming and play, one that had a "pool party" with provided rafts and balls and a hot tub. All had staff available that were helpful and friendly.

I like SAC because it's never super packed with people. No trouble getting time on the equipment I want. Lots of various activities to do. My family enjoys it here. Staff is very helpful and friendly.

Superb yoga classes. I have attended Gretchen's yoga classes weekly for over three years and not a single class was the same. Her classes are original, thorough, well-designed, strengthening, rejuvenating, and fulfilling. I always feel challenged and I always feel grateful at the end.
