THE HEIGHTS

This gym is a gem! Super affordable and tons of amenities. Everything is well maintained and clean. Never seems to get too crowded. Im not sure if many people know about it, but there is also a fully fenced playground and nature area behind the building that is great for young kids.

This is a really beautiful and functional community owned gym. It has a full service weights, weight machines, aerobic machines. There are daily classes, a swimming pool, a children's pool area, lap swimming and exercise classes, wet and dry sauna, locker rooms, family changing rooms and a very friendly staff. Staff. Place is always spotlessly clean. There is a charge for non-residents either by the visit or a membership.

It was my first time to go to THE HEIGHTS, but it was for my granddaughters 4th Birthday Party and I was NOT going to miss this special occasion for anything. The drive was easy, from St. John just get on 170 south to Eager Rd. Take it to Hanley south, and make a left turn at the first stop light, that's Dale. It's not very far from there, maybe a half a block or so. The parking is free and very ample for so many vehicles. The handicap parking is extremely well placed with finally enough spaces to accommodate plenty of people. It is equipped with wheelchair accessible sidewalks and doors. The staff are friendly and very helpful. I was given a paper bracelet when I chcked in, then I was escorted to the party room. After play time, opening the gifts, and then the birthday cake, it was time to move on to the indoor pool party. One thing that I especially want to point out about the pool accommodations is the 3 different changing rooms. They have a men's changing locker room, a ladies only one, and a family changing locker room. All have plenty of space and privacy to change. The shower is also private. The toilet room is large enough for parents to help with the little ones and is also private. The pool is simply sensational! Lots of play space and things to entertain children, with divided areas for swimming laps, I saw a whirlpool or maybe it was a hot tub, but it certainly has something for everyone. Even plenty of seating on the sideline, some bench style, some chairs and a table for your things. Parents are supposed to be in the pool with their child at all times. I don't know if that rule applies to older children or not, but my granddaughter was turning 4, and most of the children attending the party were quite young. This is one of the nicest community centers I've seen in a long time. Also, there were lifeguards on duty at all times. I didn't get in the pool, I was having too much fun watching the kids play and their parents chase after their child. I took pictures and videos of them playing until my phone was almost completely dead but I had a wonderful time. Thank you for reading my post. Mary Ann 😀😂

Awesome community center with basketball court, indoor track, workout area, kids workout area, meeting rooms, indoor pool, sauna, hot tub, and even a library. Resident rates are fantastic. I just wish the hours were longer, but I've been a member for years and love it.

Great place for water workouts!
Not too crowded. Staff friendly and helpful.

I can't speak for the gym itself, but the playground right behind it is amazing. It's fully fenced in and has very new equipment plus a nature play area. It has a play area for toddlers as well as for older kids. We love it and come back as often as we can.

Phenomenal facilities. Large pool, extensive weight room, lots of cardio equipment. Locker rooms are clean and appealing. Staff does a great job of keeping equipment sanitary and is friendly and welcoming to boot. One of the best gyms I've ever used, and not particularly expensive, either!

Lovely indoor pool and gorgeous floor to ceiling windows which brighten the pool area. And the cleanliness of the gym is unmatched. Especially the bathrooms and pool area. These areas in gyms typically elicit major eeek factor but not at all here due to how clean they keep the place. Check it!!

The Heights is a super accessible location to get fit and stay in touch with the community!

A family friendly place. Bright, lots of windows that let it natural light. We especially enjoyed the indoor pool and the family friendly locker rooms which were clean.

Community center management is awesome! They care about their members and they work hard to bring them the best programming and provide the best services, from fitness to health and wellness! I enjoy interacting with everyone at the HEIGHTS! Their membership fees are also extremely reasonable considering all of their offerings!

Clean, great classes offered by fabulous instructors, nice staff. Swim hours reduced (staffing) only 4 lanes. Some still Covid paranoid which may appeal to some. Overall great facility!

Love this place! To start the staff is friendly and knowledgeable on programs and memberships. Secondly it's always clean!! That's a huge plus for me, the weight room, locker rooms, basketball court and pool. If you live in Richmond Heights this is where you need to be a member at!

Wonderful for classes and workouts on your own. Very kind and kid friendly. We love going to this place as a family, there's even an outdoor playground for the children.

This place can get busy around the typical busy times for a gym, but it is such a large space that there's always a place to get a workout in. The pool is really the only place I've ever had to wait a long time to start my workout as most people are uncomfortable circle swimming so you can only get 2 people in a lane.

They have an area on their basketball courts dedicated to Olympic style weight lifting and CrossFit workouts which is fantastic.

The staff here is also top notch!

The heights aquatic center is an outstanding pool for young children. It has a zero entry area, and is shallow throughout most of the recreational area. Bigger kids do not have the room to play, this is mostly for elementary and younger. I was there to help my daughter learn to swim. We are not residents of Richmond heights. On this Friday evening, it was fairly empty, and a great environment for her to learn, and feel comfortable.
There are also two/three lap lanes, the third looks like it opens up to the other areas in a few places. Also, this is a saltwater pool.

We visited friends and went to aquatic center with them; it was a very enjoyable experience! The pool area was very clean and it had a lot of stuff for kids to enjoy, such as a kiddie structure with a pool and some spray spouts, ad well as a lazy river, a lap pool, and a slide for people over 48". There was a sauna, a steam room, and a whirlpool. We would definitely go again if we have the chance.

Great facility. Newer equipment. Staff available as needed. I use the fitness and stretching areas.

They have bingo and they feed us it's really fun. Once a month. The people are friendly and the rooms are clean

Great facility. I wish it had indore soccer but that's a lot to ask! The track, basketball courts, fitness areas and pool are all really nice. My only complaint would be the hours. Overall the building and emmenities are great quality.
