Fantastic experience: Clean, well-organized, and modern recreation facilities

Fantastic experience: We love the pool here.

Fantastic experience: Saw a guy inclining 405 for reps and I was like WOW until he started throwing it in the air I went up and asked if he's natty and he started getting all agressive then he sold me some Trenbolone and Rad 140

Fantastic experience: Nice spot, loads of activities available. City of Ottawa site & actual hours differ.

Positive experience: Most of the staff are very friendly, except for this one man that works in the workout gym. He is a bald man that I noticed likes to always negotiate with people if he doesn’t see a wristband on them, until they show him that they have a card pass, OR he always sees what other people are doing and I feel judged. Overall the place is very clean and the receptionists are very kind.

Positive experience: Great place for the family. For the price of significantly increased over the last few years

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout, play sports, swim, and many more things. I’ve been going here for the past 10 years and I haven’t had any specific problem with the place.

Fantastic experience: Very good place to practice sport

Fantastic experience: Used to work here. Great facility and faculty!

Negative experience: We had a great swim instructor Zac, for our 10month old baby girl, some lady took over and was bragging about getting him fired. Very unprofessional, Zac was doing a great job and getting better every lesson! We miss you Zac, this new lady seems very mean to speak about a collegue this way

Fantastic experience: Easily one of the cleanest pools in the city. No hottub but it's brand new basically

Negative experience: This is my second year of paying monthly membership for the household. A deal breaker for me are group classes, which are less and less for the afternoon, and when they are sometimes are cancelled. For a period I enjoyed going here, but not anymore. Thinking to look in the neighborhood for an alternative. the money we pay no longer justifies their lack of personnel and organization for the afternoon classes.

Fantastic experience: Clean, modern recreation centre with great staff.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing experience hosting a birthday party at the Richcraft. Very affordable, super accommodating and ultra professional.

All the parents who attended were gushing at the venue asking for info to book their next party.

Fantastic experience: Went to Richcraft today to try out the 1:00 PM Aqua fit class. I'm a senior. I'm overweight. I have disc issues. I'm self-conscious. I knew this type of class would be good got me, but l've been procrastinating. Today, l just went for it. Got on my suit showed up for the class...showed up for myself. The reception staff were friendly (loaned me a padlock). The chane room was spacious and super clean. The water was the perfect temperature. The crowd was friendly. The instructor was fabulous. I found myself running in the water (haven't run for well over a decade). The music was aerobic beat Christmas music. I gravitated to another large lady who was singing along to the music and joined her. I came out happily exhausted. I'll be back...

Fantastic experience: Pool and the staff is awesome at this location !

Fantastic experience: Nice, relatively new recreational facility in Kanata. My favorite place for swimming.

Fantastic experience: Neat and clean facility, the lobby is bright. There is plenty of parking spots.

Fantastic experience: Richcraft is the best place to get some exercise during winter. The gym is okay, the pool is amazing,

Fantastic experience: One of the best sport complex! Activity, facility, staffs are just amazing. Awesome community!

Fantastic experience: Ritchcraft has a good gym, loys of weights, tons of cardio machines and more. The only problem i have is with their policy on teens

Fantastic experience: Facility is amazing! This is well maintained and staff is very nice. Definitely recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: Great facility, pool is large and the lane swim lanes are wide. There are quite a few lanes so it does not usually feel crowded

Positive experience: It's a nice gym, but has room for improvement. Needs more room and mirrors for weights.

Fantastic experience: Great spot for families with a great park behind the complex. Facilities are clean and the shallow pool (waist deep) is warm and great for kids.

Fantastic experience: Richcraft Rec Complex is great for everyone. We personnaly like the cleanliness, hours of operation and variety of activities offered to the whole family.

Negative experience: This place is pure racist. Only the priveledged are welcomed here. First day of swim class for my 1 year old it was all ok to take pictures and was told without asking that I am allowed to take pictures of my child as long as trainers n other children are not in the picture. Which i have 100% respected as i dont care to take pictures of any other person here. Second class n the man comes and tells me i can no longer take pictures or even be around for the sessions. I didnt create any disturbance for the class n he came n spoke so disrespectfully and ruined the class for my child and for us first time parents. He embarassed us in front of all other parents. Worst place to bring your young children because only people welcomed here are priviledged ones. All based on skin color.

Positive experience: Such an amazing space. There is something for everyone here. Any event would be comfortable using the facilities. It's clean with plenty of parking.

Fantastic experience: What a great place to play volleyball! Top quality hardwood floors, tight nets with antennae, 3m high windows, plenty of space around the courts to serve and leave your gear. Decent parking.

Fantastic experience: This is a newish rec complex - pool and gym facilities abound indoors; splash pad, play structure, volleyball courts, skateboard park are nice outside. We've been a few times for kids parties which are also a hit with the gym setup and staffed to help the kids. The activity rooms also have access to a shared full kitchen. What makes me smile here are the fox statues in the entry area. Lots of parking.

Positive experience: The pool itself was clean and well-maintained, with plenty of space for swimming. The water temperature was a bit cold. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I felt safe and secure with the lifeguards on duty. The changing rooms and shower facilities were also clean.

Fantastic experience: Staff are always available and courteous. The facilities are top notch and there is flexibility for start times for the lane swimming. Lifeguards there do very well managing swim etiquette for visitors as well. Staffing limitations may mean that on occasion they keep the sauna closed, fyi. The private showers can get busy fast though.

Fantastic experience: Great facility with a modern look, good amenities in fine shape, and lots of programs and courses. I wish that they'd be more stringent about getting people to take outdoor shoes off around the pool deck, though. It can get dingy and dirty.

Fantastic experience: Wow, what a fantastic place, with great amenities for every age. We used the pools and sauna. For rec swim they even had one fitness lane available... plus I love the thoughtful warmer water for the babies/kids' pool because tired parents of young kids can just stay there, comfortably. For teens, there was the challenge of the diving board, water basketball hoop, and big float toys. Wheelchair pool ramp beautiful! The sauna was big enough to seat 25 people. The life guards were also amazing. There were plenty of them, equipped with life saving gear, and they were all scanning their areas carefully.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this facility. The staff are all professional from the office to the swimming team that we have experienced. also I want to especially highlight a member at the swimming team named Abdulla and his colleagues at the swimming team! They did a wonderful job, incredibly professional, attentive, proms, and friendly. They helped making a great experience for the kids and yet parents. a seamless and smooth one. Signed very happy parents. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Richcraft RC is one of the best facilities of this kind in Ottawa. It is relatively new, well maintained and very well equipped. It has something for everyone, from indoor swimming pools to a fitness and cardio centre, from two full gyms to several community rooms. Outside, there is a very decent artificial turf soccer field, two beach volleyball sand courts, a skateboard park, and a children’s play area with great play structures and an amazing splash pad. The complex backs into the Trillium Woods Park, and there is lots of wildlife around.

Fantastic experience: I only weht to the richcraft rec center to cast my vote in the 2021 election. I was blown away by how much this place has. 2 gymnasiums, reportedly 2 pools, a weight room, outdoor soccer pitch with artificial turf, 2 or 3 basketball courts, children's play structure AND a splash pad for kids! I'm not sure but there is probably more...AMAZING.

Fantastic experience: Clean and modern. It's a pretty quiet place all around, and the playground, volleyball court, and soccer field on the outside are a welcome addition. The swimming pool is pretty large too.

Fantastic experience: Qiang Ma if you are sick of people stealing your stuff buy a lock. There is no way there is a man walking around the changeroom with bolt cutters. Like at this point your doing this to yourself, BUY A LOCK.
