James City County Recreation Center — Local services in Williamsburg

This is a HUGE Recreation facility! 2 stories, with a small elevator, for those of us with mobility issues. There is a large pool, that is under renovations, to be completed by November 24, the sign states. And, of course, various changing rooms with showers and lockers. (Some changing rooms are designated for families with young children to change together.) I was so impressed with the expansive physical fitness/exercise rooms, with more fitness equipment than I have seen! Many levels of fitness classes are offered. Everything is very clean and well spaced out. There are 3 (or 4?) basketball courts, with a 2 lane walking trail surrounding them on the 2nd floor. 11 times around that equals 1 mile. Downstairs, near the 2 (or 3?) enclosed racketball courts (!!) is a pool table and a ping pong table, 2 coat racks and lockers. There are vending machines for snacks and drinks.

I've been going here since I was 8 years old so this place holds a lot of memories for me.

From having fun with my friends, to learning weights for the first time, or hanging out downstairs playing air hockey or racket ball.

Going here during covid times is great and I feel safe. I never see anyone without a mask and everything is bejng cleaned like every 10 min.

The bathrooms are always being cleaned as well and the staff is kind and helpful.

I came back because American Family fitness was expensive and while I loved that gym too, I felt the rec center offers more and has a pool.

As a resident of Williamsburg there is no better option for you to go to ! This facility has everything you need for yourself to stay in shape! Plus on everything they have the best deals on memberships not only in Williamsburg but in whole US , since I've been many places! $75 for 3 months equals $25 a month , and you can use gym, pool, and basketball court. The only reason of giving 4 instead of 5 stars are hours of operations! Mostly they closing at 9pm and weekends at 6pm ...Most other places closing 11pm ...which makes big difference if you have other things to do through day! Overall , the best place to relax your body&mind Note: Share Your Experience Bellow and Help...
