Oak Ridges Community Centre & Pool

Expérience fantastique: Very well maintained community center. I attend aqua fitness once a week , for only Dibbie's classes . I live in South of Richmond Hill and travel takes me about 30-35 minutes. But getting her classes is worth it.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent, modern community center with all the amenities.

Expérience fantastique: My mom has been a member for a few months and frequently uses the facility and pool. The staff have been incredibly kind and attentive, particularly Brad, who was very helpful and showed great empathy when she was feeling down. She believes the pool attendants could benefit from better supervision, especially regarding appropriate attire and ensuring proper swimwear to maintain the safety and well-being of all members.

Expérience positive: Faculty are new and people are friendly

Expérience positive: So far so good

Expérience positive: This place started getting filthy, not like few years back.

Expérience négative: There was an adult men age around 35 in women’s changing room today around 1:35 pm. He entered from the pool and wondered around in the changing room and exited to the hallway. There were several girls and their moms in the room. I have to say this is crazy and offensive. I understand that the guy maybe transgender and identifies himself as a woman (but he has a quite manly look), but there is a universal change room available. And the guy didn’t go there to change clothes, he just walked through and looked around. Hope the pool will improve the management.

Expérience positive: Play pickle ball here. The space behind the lines are very limited. One side is wall, the other side is a big curtain, Play with extreme caution, not to fall down. I join it as it is for beginner matching my skill.

Expérience fantastique: I recently visited the Oak Ridges Community Center and was thoroughly impressed by the range and quality of services offered. The facilities are top-notch, well-maintained, and cater to all age groups and interests. The staff is exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to assist and ensure a welcoming environment. I was particularly impressed by the programs designed for children and seniors, which show a genuine commitment to fostering a sense of community and inclusivity. Whether you're looking to stay fit, learn a new hobby, or simply connect with others, the Oak Ridges Community Center & Pool is the perfect place to do so. Overall, I highly recommend this Community center to anyone in the area.

Decently priced fitness memberships and the gym has a great variety of machines and equipment. Note- Parking is expensive if you aren’t a resident of Richmond Hill ($4/hr) but there is street parking within a 10-15 minute walk. Just walking to the centre is so peaceful. Be sure to take a walk along the lake as well!

Expérience positive: This is my first time to visit this Community Centre , although I have passed by it over 100 times. A nicely designed community center, not very big but has 2 very nice indoor swimming pools. A big Gym, and some meeting rooms, a fitness center, A nice common area and outdoor sitting area , over looking the beautiful Lake Wilcox . This center belongs to the City of Richmond Hill. For residents of City of Richmond Hill , you better get a parking label from the city before you come to use the center and need to park the car at the parking lot.

Expérience positive: Kids take swimming lessons here. Friendly staff and clean facilities but half the showers in the family change rooms are not working

Expérience fantastique: This is an awesome community centre with lush surroundings and they have ample parking space. Parking is not free but every visit is worth it. I attended a party in one of their rooms and the view from the room was spectacular!!! It’s clean and the pool is fantastic too !!

Expérience positive: Nice facilities. Well priced with lots of options for activities. Very clean with friendly staff.

Expérience fantastique: I have been taking adult swimming lessons since fall 2023. The instructors are excellent. My first instructor was Xavier, he was very skilled and patient. I highly recommend this facility.

Expérience fantastique: Very Friendly staff. Well maintained, but busy most of the time, lots of activities. Richmond Hill could use another similar good-sized fitness facility in the centre of the town, especially as we are growing so quickly.

Expérience fantastique: One of the best community centres in the area. New facility with nice pools and event rooms

Expérience fantastique: Well keep and provide different kinds activities.friendly and helpful staff

Expérience négative: Parking is very expensive- if you are coming from outside of the city of Richmond hill, get ready to pay 4 dollars for each hour … WTH ‍♂️!!! But if you are from Richmond hill you have to fill a form with your driving license not pay parking I was invited for an event for this place on a Saturday… why would I pay 20 dollars for an evening in that place … ! The place is not that fancy or it is a crowded area to ask for that expensive parking amount

Expérience positive: Took a class very clean and right next to Lake Wilcox.

Expérience fantastique: We had the pleasure of hosting another children birthday party. The space was very clean and beautiful. After the party we had the opportunity to visit Lake Wilcox which is located behind the centre. The neighbourhood is absolutely stunning.

Expérience fantastique: Went here for a birthday party. Great spaces to rent out. Lots of facilities and it is located in such a beautiful area. Just to note, from April to September, you have to pay for parking, and there is someone verifying.

Expérience positive: All facilities are new. Good view from the centre!

Expérience positive: Love the facility. We enjoy going there. Newly built building with good ambience

Expérience positive: Always enjoy visiting the Center - always lots to do (swimming / gym / exercise classes) AND once again it hosted the 2023 Terry Fox run - a fantastic cause

Expérience fantastique: The community center offers a diverse range of activities, including a swimming pool and gym, fair monthly fee.

Expérience positive: Very nice environment large pool and hottub not the best swimming schedules can't always use the slides which is one of the best parts apart from the pool and hottub otherwise it's great hope they can improve on these.

Expérience positive: Richmond Hill residents need to register their vehicle online for free parking. Nice community center, big, clean and bright

Expérience négative: I paid online for the basketball Drop in between 6:30&8:00. But the court was locked because the ‘guy’ didn’t show up. I waited until 7:00, nothing happened. It is a really good basketball court. Too bad cannot play.

Expérience positive: No consistency of pool rules, life guards are not fully educated regarding rules

Expérience fantastique: It’s a great community center. Clean and lots of facilities. Swimming pool is great, thanks a lot for all professional life saving guards. It would be nice they have library here.

Expérience positive: Both pool & gym are very expensive as community centre for Richmond Hill residents

Expérience fantastique: One of the best community centres in Richmond Hill. Located besides Lake Wilcox

Expérience fantastique: I love going here to swim, and the addition of vending machines makes it better!

Expérience négative: The lifeguards are not trained properly at all. This young boy was extremely rude to my kids. 0/10

Expérience fantastique: I love this place! It's well maintained and clean. The staff is polite and helpful. I attend the basketball activity in this community center on a weekly basis. Last week I tried the pool and it was also awesome! Very recommended.

Expérience fantastique: It’s a very nice facility with state of the art equipment, pool, sports equipment and plenty of space for various programs for kids and adults of all ages. The one thing I wished was that there were lockers available that you can put your own lock instead of paying and it being one time use. (Sometimes you forget one thing and then you have to pay again…)

Expérience fantastique: Very nice community center with lots of amenities

Expérience fantastique: This beautiful and amazing community center, with its breath taking view, always provides the best service. Thank you city of Richmond Hill!

Expérience fantastique: Very nice facilities and next to the pond. Waterpark is around there as well. On the smaller side but has a great swimming pool and a few gymnasiums. Ths family change room for the swimming pool is on the larger side as well compared to other community centers around the area. Still very well kept. Great community center for kids

Expérience positive: Nice building, great staff. Basketball floors are a little slippery, could use a polish and whatever they use to shine the hardwood up again.

Expérience fantastique: The community centre provides a warm water swimming pool. Of course there are many people.

Expérience fantastique: Beautiful gym. Bright and spacious. Played volleyball couple of time and will come when there's chance.

Expérience fantastique: Very nice odern looking place. Pool facilities are great qieth kids. Free WiFi is a plus

Expérience positive: bathrooms could use a bit more attention lots of friendly staff on site great pool for the kids

Expérience positive: Great use of a portion of the lake for public use, with a community centre and park as well. Removed 1 star due to the poor design of parking lot, it can be more thought out to fit more cars.

Expérience fantastique: Super clean super nice and love ❤️ how families can enjoy activities there. Got the best view to the lakes breathe taken

Expérience négative: Clean, but a mickey mouse operator compared to Angus Glen in Markham. No change tables in the change rooms, but they offer swimming classes for infants. You have to watch your kid swim from upstairs, as opposed to hearing then have fun

Expérience fantastique: Very nice community centre with a nice and clean swimming pool area

Expérience fantastique: I have only been going to this community centre for the last few months and it is one of the best community centres I have been to. Especially the big gym for sports

Expérience fantastique: Very well planned, one of newest community centres in Richmond Hill, it is located in northern part of Richmond Hill, programs for all ages, access to Wilcox lake and picturesque scenery from the window

Expérience fantastique: Good, clean and big building! Offers a wide variery of activities!

Expérience fantastique: I visit this community centre for their swimming pool. Very clean and spacious. Whether you're into endurance training and want to go for a lane swim or just for leisure, their hours are pretty good...especially recently they have extended their leisure swim hours!

Expérience fantastique: Pool is fantastic. The price, $3.75 per visit is very cheap, including sauna and water slide- what a deal! Gym is nice too, equipment is up-to-date and all in excellent working condition. Staff are excellent and alway greet me each visit. Great place to go an work out.

Expérience positive: The community centre is very good. Spacious, new and clean. However I think the parking fee is too high @4.00/hr, 7 days a week. They should lower the parking fee by 50% CX a lot of families visit the centre and the lake especially on weekends.

Expérience fantastique: Wonderful staff that are here to help! Excellent facility to work out, swim or just relax and take a walk on the path behind the centre! Always a pleasure to go here.

Expérience fantastique: Hi I would like to swim, do I need to book reservations or just walk in ?

Expérience fantastique: Friendly staff for pool. Changing rooms are clean and facilities are in good shape

Expérience fantastique: Facilities are nice and staff goes above and beyond. Please be nice to staff, too many people were very rude and impatient.

Expérience fantastique: Great facility. The gym and swimming pool are the best part of it

Expérience négative: I never post a review when I receive an unpleasant customer experience in the last 2 years, because I understand it's a challenging time for a lot of businesses. In this incident, I felt it's important to share so other parents know what to expect. I have been waiting over a month for my daughter to be enrolled into the Kinder Camp. As a busy working parent, we all know March break week can be a challenge. I enrolled on the 1st day of registration date at 7:01am, and I was placed 1st on the waitlist. Yesterday, a rep from this Ed Sackfield community centre left a voicemail around noon, letting me know a spot had become available, and I had to call back by 12:30 to get enrolled. I spent 10 minutes running around Costco trying to find a pen, so I could meet the deadline. At 12:10, left 2 vms, and on the 3rd attempt, I was able to connect with the same rep who had called me. She now advised me that there was a glitch and the spot is not available. Nothing they can do for me. Prior to yesterday, I have been proactive in finding a camp, and have been in regular communication with the Kinder Camp manager Jen Cockburn at Oakridges C.C. The way the staff and the management team from both community centres handled their mistake was extremely unprofessional. The perception that they left is they had enrolled another person after me, and advised it was a glitch. Whether this is true or not, that's the perception that they had imprinted. I understand things happen, however, when it's YOUR mistake, and you INCONVENIENCE your clients, you have to own up to it and FIX it. Both Jen and her staff said nothing they can do, it's the system. This is a lack of professionalism and they demonstrated their unwillingness to handle customer problem resolutions. I share this because I hope no other parents will have to deal with this similar situation.

Expérience fantastique: This place is one of the best community centres there is! It's so new and clean! The staff make sure that every single person is satisfied, and with ease and speed. It's cheap, and a good use of money, since everything there is cheap, with a variety of activities! Plus, it's worth the money! 1h-1:30h just for $3-6 is a good use of money to work out/swim.

Expérience fantastique: I'm loving the place so far. Just joined. Friendly staff, clean facilities. Pro tips: Plenty of free parking. Great views. Rent locks for $0.25. Remember to check times for swimming.

Expérience fantastique: Great facility! The gym and pool is nice and the fitness center looks good too. Lots of people there after dinner time. The lineup can be quite slow.

Expérience fantastique: This community center has a lot of facilities and is great for kids and adults. The staff is kind and very helpful. I have attended paid programs of swimming and badminton. There are limited amount of walk-in activities. Most are pre registrations. There are some family swim days which are walk-in.

Expérience négative: Shame a community centre would discriminate against unvaccinated. It is a community service and to deny people based on personal medical decisions is highly unethical.
