Great park with a lot to offer. Includes tennis courts, pools, playgrounds and a really cool ninja course for both kids and adults. There is a timer that allows you to try for your personal best.

It is a very nice place. It is not too big nor too small. The accessibility is convenient. The staff and members are outstanding.

I go there twice a month the place has to slides but not that long and two pools one for swimming one for diving and there is a small place for kids. Great place very clean.

Great rec center for all your needs at a price that is beyond reasonable. Its very clean and the staff is super friendly.

It is a small center made for locals. The place isnt as big as commercial places like Planet Fitness and such but it doesnt serve as many people. It is usually pretty clean and usually never packed so you will always have multiple machines open. It is also pretty inexpensive so it is definitely a great place!

All in one, park, field, hill, obstacles course! Kids always have a blast here

I go there regularly to use their free public tennis courts. It is one of the very few courts in the area with lights, which is a great thing in summer/fall. Over the years it has deteriorated though. There are some cracks on the court..with grass growing in them. Some uneven surface..evident after a light drizzle. But most of all, I wish there was at least a bench on each court to sit on.

Very disappointing. As a mom without family around I am always with my 2 children and at Meineke Center that is my fault. They are offering adult swim, but children can not even be on deck or on the water playground. During open hours it is completely impossible for an adult to swim. There is no lane for lap swim like in other pools and no adult swim time during the open hours for 15 minutes every hour. So, if you really want to swim and have your children with you, go to a different pool.

This place was really cool I really enjoyed the AstroTurf that way when it rained we didnt get muddy. We also enjoyed that they have the timers for the track and the obstacle course which was impressive to find in a public park. Theres also a kids play park with swings and all sorts of play gyms for the kids which was an amazing find and the kids had a blast.

One of the best swim spot in the county. Was very impressed to find the very large swimming pool, water rides and diving boards. I think this might be the only rec center in the area that has a 10 meter dive plank. Wonderful place!

2 lighted courts, but lights are weak courts in good shape, swimming pool and nice playground around

I really enjoy Meineke rec center however I suggest you go to the other Schaumburg rec center available until the revamping is completed which should be in a little over a week. Looking forward to seeing the completion of the center.

Great little spot. Has everything. The obstacle course was well kept. Basketball. Tennis a normal park hill to run and even a 40 yard dash station.

Nice park district swimming pool. Not recommended to go before 4pm as both pools are absolutely packed with kids from summer camps. After they leave its nice and quiet. There is also football obstacles course with timer - kids gonna love it - and ordinary playground for the little ones.

Review №22

So there is a little Ninja Course behind the facility that is kinda hidden. There are no signs from Weathersfield way that you would even know its there. I was warned by a friend to go early because the bigger kids come and its difficult to get a littler one on the stations (hes 5 1/2). Well he enjoyed himself but it wasnt till the end that we saw the instructions and the timer. We ended up at the nice park that was a few steps away and made some nice friends. The area was clean, the only thing missing was a porta potty! We didnt see one. And there is a big hill off in the distance....?

This isnt fancy, exceptionally clean, or even close to state of the art. It doesnt have a ton of equipment or even a very big space. Most of the staff is bored and takes your pass without a word unless you say hi first. That said, I just use it for the basics. I dont use any other sites at the district except the outdoor meineke pool in the summer. It is perfect for me and for my family - and only about $16/month for the lot of us. I think my only complaint is that it could be cleaner. Other than that, it is perfect for our needs.

The staff is very nice and friendly. They do everything in their power to help you. The staff also keeps the place very clean, which includes the basketball courts, the running track, and the gym. I dont know about the pool though cause I have never used it.

We rented a large preschool room for a family gathering. Plenty of space for 40+ people, and small kitchen had what was needed: fridge, microwave, oven.

Dont go to Meinekes Adult Open Volleyball if you dont like seeing whole teams being discriminated against because they dont play perfectly. Drove an hour for the worst open volleyball experience ever. So glad other places are full of kind people who let everyone join in because it is OPEN volleyball. I was ashamed of the people there who absolutely refused to play with one of the teams because they arent as skilled, leaving that team to play with no one. Never again. There were enough people for 4 teams. You play a couple and then you switch. People refused because they didnt want to play with this polish team. They werent horrible! So they couldnt slam their spikes down! Who cares? The volleyball snobs would rather rotate 3 teams, having obviously one team sitting out while they wait to play the winner, while the polish team is on a court by themselves.

The only bad thing about Meineke is that they rent the gym out at 9am to the same people every year every month every week making it unfair for anyone else to rent the gym or even use it after 9am
