The Pointe at Ballwin Commons: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I love it it is so awesome and amazing
Negative experience: Poor and incapable daycare monitors.
Hi Reo, We're sorry to hear you feel that way. Per our policy, individuals who are displaying symptoms of illness are not allowed to stay in our childcare facility. If you would like to speak to someone further about this, please contact our Parks & Recreation Director Chris Conway at [email protected].
Fantastic experience: Best place in Ballwin to work out swim play pickle ball basketball. Very clean. Great Staff
Fantastic experience: The best place for fitness and recreational activities for self or for the entire family.
Fantastic experience: Great place with an awesome staff!
Positive experience: I love the pointe most of the time I think the hour should be longer but I get other people have a life too and I don’t know one of the employees name but I did a little rim grazer and he came flying in the gym and literally screaming at me and said the backboard said no dunking but when I look up there I didn’t say no dunking and he threatened to kick me out if I did it one more time he’s a white male with a brown side part he looks about 5’11/6’0
Fantastic experience: Great place!
Fantastic experience: This place is great. I went to sit in the hot tub. My back felt great. The restrooms were clean. The staff was friendly. Had a good day for $9.
Fantastic experience: Have been coming here for 10? Years. The hours ,people, and equipment is great. Their always trying to improve the facility. The only minor complaint- they are not able to accommodate the large group of pickleball Players though they try .
Fantastic experience: Excellent
Fantastic experience: Nice , clean, a very good place to exercise. The staff is friendly and helpful.
Negative experience: They wouldn’t allow me get a discounted resident membership because they said I live in “unofficial” Ballwin. I literally have a Ballwin address as shown on my utility bill so that doesn’t make any sense.
Often times there are locations in unincorporated St. Louis County that have a Ballwin postal code because the mail comes from the Ballwin Post Office. But that does not necessarily mean that you live in the City of Ballwin. You might be slightly outside of the boundaries. You can check your address to see what municipality you live in here: https://stlcogis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=e70f8f1814a34cd7bf8f6766bd950c68/
Fantastic experience: I’ve never been but it looks like a fantastic Pool And I would love to experience it with my little one and my husband sooner than later she has a birthday coming up April 23 I would love to have it at this place we’ll see
Fantastic experience: First rate, inviting facility
Fantastic experience: The indoor pool was a lot of fun for my son (3) to be able to enjoy in the winter
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are so glad to hear that your family enjoyed our indoor pool! We are extending our weekend hours (starting Saturday, February 6) and open swim will now last until 3:30 p.m. on Saturdays & Sundays. We hope to see you back this weekend!
Fantastic experience: I like it very good
We're so glad to hear this! Hope you'll come visit us again soon!
Fantastic experience: Great workout! Super professional and intensive. The music is super pumping and trainers are great. Everyone seems to be so positive and uplifting. Place is really clean and they sanitize the equipment after each workout. Highly recommended.
Positive experience: Very disappointed they are not requiring masks. Even most of their employees were without masks.
Positive experience: Had a birthday party here back in April and the staff was so helpful and great about everything. My son got to swim all morning and then have his party in the afternoon. I didn't give full 5 star just based on location of party rooms to the pool. You have to walk all through the bathrooms and through lobby to get to the party room. I think in the future building the rooms attached to the pool would be safer and more beneficial for party experience. Other than that the facility was well maintained and pool was clean and lifeguards were on watch at all times. Had a great time, thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're so glad you had a great party at our facility. Your feedback has been forwarded to The Pointe team. Hope you'll consider us for another party in the future!
Fantastic experience: The Pointe is the true definition of a Community Center. Members talk to each other, support each other, and encourage each other as we all work towards better health at our pace and abilities. It offers such a fun, positive atmosphere for all ages and various interests. I actually look forward to my workout days!
We love to hear this & will definitely share this with Pointe staff. Thank you for choosing us as your community center!
Negative experience: Cutting their hours way too much!
Kitty, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We value feedback from all of our members and guests. As you can imagine, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on a variety of businesses, including our community center. The decision to temporarily modify our hours was made after a comprehensive review of our facility's attendance (specifically the number of visitors we have and the time of day they visit). While we are sorry to hear you're disappointed with our current offerings, we felt the most fiscally-responsible decision was to adjust our hours to reflect our current attendance patterns. We hope you'll understand as we continue to navigate this unprecedented global pandemic. We hope we can resume normal operations soon. If you'd like to discuss this further, please send an email to Parks & Recreation Director Chris Conway at [email protected]
Fantastic experience: Love this place. Great equipment and staff. Top notch service and the place is spotless.
We appreciate your kind words Jennifer and hope to see you back soon!

Thank you for leaving a review Andy! We truly appreciate it. Glad to see you enjoy our water aerobics & silver sneakers programs!
Fantastic experience: Just joined , looked around and liked what they have to offer
Fantastic experience: they are nice people except for one life guard
Wei, we are sorry to hear this. We strive to create a friendly, safe, and fun atmosphere for all guests. At your earliest convenience, would you provide more details about your experience to [email protected]. so we can address this further?
Fantastic experience: Great indoor pool!
Thank you for your review Becky!
Fantastic experience: Great facilities.
Thank you Andrey! We appreciate your feedback.
Fantastic experience: The Pointe is a really awesome health club/gym for the Ballwin community. It offers something for everyone when it comes to health and fitness, which sounds cliché, but it is true. There are teens who come solely to play basketball; there are families with their kids who come for the pool; there are walking track people, cardio people, and weights people. What everyone shares is a basic commitment to wellbeing, whatever that needs to look like for the individual. The age range is really cool to see, and one gets the sense that the people all around them are a collective reflection of "the community." The staff members at the front desk are always kind and helpful. The facilities were clean prior to and throughout the pandemic, and I imagine the pandemic will set the standard very high for years to come. The prices are very reasonable and competitive if one is a Ballwin resident, but otherwise, it might be worth looking elsewhere. My wife and I have never really been "gym people", but the Pointe has provided us a really positive, well-rounded experience.
Fantastic experience: Our kids love this place! The indoor pool is amazing and the gym area is great for the adults.
Thanks for your kind review Tiffany! So glad to hear you & your family enjoy The Pointe!
Fantastic experience: Really grateful for this local gym and community center! They have great rates, as well.
Douglas, thank you for taking the time to review The Pointe! We are so glad to hear you're happy with our facility and pricing. Hope to see you again soon!
Fantastic experience: My kids love the pool!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We really appreciate it and hope to see you back soon!!
Fantastic experience: audition one of many of Debbie's organized exercise classes and you'll be back for more
Thanks for your awesome rating!
Negative experience: Worked out here for 6+ years and during the pandemic, operating hours are a joke - it's hardly ever open and membership rates are absolutely out of control. 800+ for a subpar exercising experience when any local gym which is open to 11pm every day is maybe 200 a year. It wasn't until switching when I realized how much of a rip-off it was.
Ryne, we appreciate you taking the time to offer your feedback. We are sorry to hear you're disappointed with our current operating hours and fees. While local gyms may be cheaper, The Pointe at Ballwin Commons is a family community center, not a gym. You will find our rates comparable to other area community centers. Regarding current hours, we are not operating at 100% capacity (per County guidelines) and have found it more cost-effective to temporarily reduce our hours during this pandemic. If you have any additional questions or would like to discuss this further, please email Parks & Recreation Director Chris Conway at [email protected]
Negative experience: "swim" lessons... Watching more than 9 minutes straight of sitting on the edge of the pool in the middle of a 30 minute class which is advertised as 45 minutes. The pointe is a good center, the swim lessons not so much
Brad, we appreciate you reaching out regarding your swim lesson experience at The Pointe. Our records indicate that your child is signed up for our Tadpoles class, which is actually a 30-minute, pool-side class (the extra 15 minutes is designed for transition time and safety talks). Tadpoles is one of our beginner (non-swimmers) groups, so for safety reasons we require children to sit on the edge while one child works in the pool with the instructor (since there is a 5-to-1 ratio for this class). Please note, not every skill is taught this way, so if a skill can be taught safely in the water as a group in the water, we will do that. Additionally, if you'd prefer a more focused lesson for your child, we do offer private swim lessons as well! Hope this clears up any confusion! If you have any additional questions or concerns, please email [email protected].
Positive experience: Staff was alittle rude and could not agree on how much Pickleball was for a nonresident. I ended up paying $9 for pickleball on a Saturday night. That's expressive for a few hours of Pickleball. Most places charge $3-$6 for non residents or just a flat rate. Level of play varies.
Amanda, thank you for reaching out. We strive to provide an atmosphere that is fun, respectful, and safe, and are sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with your experience at The Pointe. Currently, our non-resident rate to play pickleball is $9, but please note this includes complete daily admission to our facility, which includes the fitness area, indoor pool, etc. If you'd like to discuss your experience (or our rates) further, please send an email to [email protected].
Negative experience: THIS ESTABLISHMENT HAS ALL THE WORKOUT EQUIPMENT YOU MAY WANT OR NEED. HOWEVER, THEY DON'T WANT TO SPEND THE MONEY TO HIRE A LIFEGUARD TO UTILIZE THE POOL AREA DURING THE DAY! THIS AREA OF THE BUILDING IS LOCKED UP! WHY HAVE A MEMBERSHIP WHEN YOU CAN'T USE (ALL) THE FACILITIES? IT'S A WIN WIN SITUATION ON THEIR PART TO CLOSE THE POOL AREA BECAUSE; (1.)THEY SAVE MONEY FOR THE TIME THE POOL AREA IS CLOSED (MOST MORNINGS, & AFTERNOONS,) BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE TO PAY A LIFE GUARD! (2.)ALSO, FACTOR IN THE MONEY THEY SAVE FOR POOL CHEMICALS! SAD
Hello Jim, thank you for reaching out. We're sorry to hear you're frustrated with the times for our open swim. Our primary goal is to provide a safe and fun facility for all. During the weekday, our pool is utilized for lap swimming and water classes from 5:30 a.m. until 8:30 p.m., with a brief closure from 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. due to staffing. We rely primarily on high school and college kids and this time slot has proven more challenging to staff. However, we appreciate your feedback and will take this into consideration moving forward. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this further, please email [email protected].
Fantastic experience: Love it..new floors for the pickleball courts are awesome!!
Thank you Christine!
Fantastic experience: Love this place. Love Ballwin.
Fantastic experience: Great place to host birthday parties have been here a couple of times for my fiancé’s family’s children staff is always friendly and helpful. Good size venues for parties. Made a great place to have a pool party kids had a blast. Workers came in several times to see if we needed anything. And when we had her sisters birthday party there they even let us hang a huge banner on the front of the building
Fantastic experience: Has everything you need under one roof for the whole family.

Negative experience: I use to like it a lot. But now you cant even go in to watch your kid swim without buying a pass!! I just sit at the small tables where people watch their little ones... but now I have to pay $10 to look at him?? Redic.
Thanks for your feedback. We are sorry to hear you're frustrated with our admission policy. We do not charge parent admission for swim lessons. However we do charge for all-ages open swim because our staff cannot directly monitor each guest once they enter our facility past the welcome desk, therefore policy requires us to charge an entry fee. This has always been our policy. We hope this helps clear up any confusion! If you'd like to discuss this further, please send an email to [email protected].
Fantastic experience: Good place
Positive experience: I always enjoy the activities in this clean and sell run place. Many people contact to have their events held here. Lots of covenient parking too and easy to find.
Positive experience: Good but ridiculous! Closed the pool and cancelled swimming classes because of bad weather. It's an INDOOR pool.
Positive experience: Solid gym and basketball courts, however floors are very dusty and slippery

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for three years and have no complaints it's clean, the team is friendly. I have no complaints and would certainly recommend it to anybody and have done so.
Positive experience: We have my son's basketball practice here and it very nice. I can not really comment on the rest of the facility as we are in the gym the entire time. The staff are very kind from the little interaction we have experience. I can easily see this place being a 5 out of 5. The place is always busy and everyone looks to be having a good time. If we lived closer this would be a place to look at getting membership.
Positive experience: Ive been working out at the pointe pretty much my entire life but i have to say im dissapointed with the size of the free weight area, at the moment there is still only ONE bench press and ONE squat rack. The smith machine is unable to be used for God knows how long which only makes the space even smaller to have a good work out. Are we trying to keep up with the times of newer equipment? I feel thats why more people are going to other gyms because the pointe is lacking in some areas and equipment.
Positive experience: beautiful park
Positive experience: Great gym.
Positive experience: It's a fun play area for kids to spend time at. Shelter and covered benches provide ample seating places for parents.
Positive experience: Nice halls for rent. If renters could connect their computers for presentations, it will be great. I don't know if option exists.
Negative experience: Poor communication to gym closing for maintenance. I’m a regular that goes 5-6 times a week and had no idea. Their response is, we put some flyers up. - I enjoy the gym it’s my time to go and work on myself. I apologize I don’t read every flyer that is up. Most of them tend to be about events that I’m not interested in. I just don’t think that was a valiant effort especially with all the ways to get in touch with people now a days. A simple, “hello, just a friendly reminder the gym will be closed Thursday and Friday this week have a good workout,” when you walk in would have been awesome customer service with minimal effort. Minimal effort wasn’t achieved.
Positive experience: Great place to have a birthday party!
Negative experience: Everything was good until recent close time changing to 8 pm. It is not for working people.
The time change is only for summer hours. We will go back to operating normal hours from 5:15 a.m. - 9 p.m. Monday through Friday and Sat & Sun 7 a.m. - 6 p.m. starting September 7th.
Negative experience: We booked a birthday party here. Paid for it in full and had to cancel a week and a half out. After 4 phone calls and managers telling me that canceling a party was above them and they would call me back, I finally found out it had been canceled without a phone call to me. I asked how my refund would come since I paid with a credit card and even the manager in charge couldn't tell me. I will never book a party there again, completely disappointed at the lack of knowledge.
Positive experience: Fun place
