Bob L Burger Recreation Center

Fantastic experience: This is the best rec centers ever! I call it my 4 dollar spa because there is one outdoor hot tub, an indoor hot tub, waterfalls in the indoor one, and cool strong waterfalls in one of the small indoor pools. Plus a water slide and lazy river. It is kind of ridiculous. Plus the staff is super nice. Haven't tried many classes as I take dance classes elsewhere, but when it comes to the pool it is fantastic.

Fantastic experience: This is a wonderful community center. There are lots of opportunities for all ages. I go there to work out early in the morning with a bunch of other regulars (Hi, Marty!), and there are lots of activities for kids. My daughter regularly does soccer and swimming there, and she's also done not-so-typical things like tree-climbing and the STEMgirls Take Stuff Apart workshop through the rec center. I highly recommend their summer camp, and several times every summer we rent boats on Waneka Lake for some inexpensive family fun. My hat's off to you, BBRC.

Fantastic experience: My family loves this facility on the days that the weather won't let us play outside. That is because of the incredible indoor pool that they have! My daughter is their BIGGEST fan when it comes to the water slide. She will scurry up the ladder and down the two story twists of the water slide over and over again. Last time we were there I lost count of how much we went up and down - but I will never forget all the fun we had and her laughter! We also love the lazy river. Normally they have a great wading pool for the little kids, but that is closed for construction right now. I hope they open it again in time for winter!

Fantastic experience: Update: I've been going there for a while now and I really love the place. The staff are nice and I almost never have to wait for the equipment I want. It's nice going someplace where people recognize you. The value and transparency in price is also so refreshing compared to national gyms like 24 hour Fitness. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Like a spa and gym all in one, with about the nicest staff around

Fantastic experience: Just getting started with senior program after being absent for a while. They have some great senior classes!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with everything you need. My favorite thing is the outdoor hot tub

Fantastic experience: Great people. Great Rec Center!

Fantastic experience: Nice gym very warm pool

Fantastic experience: I certainly appreciate having the local rec center and all of their offerings, and also wish their website was more useful (from usability, booking, and finding relevant + clear info on classes).

Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly and helpful. My son and I enjoy coming here to swim and exercise.

Fantastic experience: Such a great place for swimming and exercising. Walk around the track as well

Fantastic experience: I love the Indoor pool and gym here

Fantastic experience: This place is unbelievable I never seen a Rec Center like this one it reminds me of a Resort

Fantastic experience: Great community recreation center! The pool is so great for young kids!

Fantastic experience: I previously just left a 5 star review with no explanation why. At the time, I had just joined so I didn't know too much except that it was rather large, is very reasonably priced and offered a lot to do. While this is still true, I can now say that I've been more than a few times and I'm super happy with my membership. The team reached out to make sure we were still coming to a class, but was kind enough to remove us from the roster and sign us up for the next one, since we had to take a trip out of state.

Fantastic experience: Great small town recreation center! Plenty of equipment and water features to satisfy most people.

Positive experience: Its a very nice recreation center with a gym, pool, track, and weight room. Would recommend if you wanted to get in shape or have some fun.

Fantastic experience: Great classes and a good value for your money. It's low key, has plenty of equipment and the staff is great. The trainers are excellent and very affordable, as are the swim instructors.

Fantastic experience: I've been going here since I was about 2 years old, I am now 27 and all I can say is it's a wonderful place with wonderful workers, it's such a good place for the community of Lafayette! ❤️

Fantastic experience: The swimming area is awesome. Looking forward to the normal hours again to stay longer

Fantastic experience: This is our favorite recreation center with an indoor pool to visit! There is something for everyone. The pool has a lazy River, large water slide, wonderful area for small children, indoor jacuzzi, deep end with a diving board, rock wall to climb over the pool, lap pool, and outdoor adults only jacuzzi! The facility is clean and everyone who works there seems very nice. Marty at the front desk was very polite and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Kid pool is great. I appreciated how they organized reservations during Covid..

Fantastic experience: Awesome outdoor hot tub and steam room, the best place in town to workout and relax. Plus the staff is helpful and friendly.

Fantastic experience: I love how the hot tubs are open and I can relax. But my biggest thing is that I wish the steam room was open. I wish they did 1 person at a time in the steam room so it could be open. Personally I have high blood pressure and I used to go to the steam room to help with that.

Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly and professional especially during this COVID, masks are required inside the public areas and is properly enforced. Life guards are very concious of the swimmers and watch the children with a vigilant eye. The spa and jacuzzi are clean with the sauna dry/wet comfortably hot being well maintained. I highly recommend this clean modern facility.

Fantastic experience: Great rec center pool, especially for families with mixed ages of kids.

Fantastic experience: Sweet slide. 2 hot tubs with incredible jets. A large steam room and dry sauna. During open swim the even have a diving board!

Fantastic experience: Great local gym/fitness area. Major upgrades in 2019 allowed for better equipment and has everything you need for your workout

Fantastic experience: Wishing this place could open soon. Far cleaner than most gyms with cleaning staff that go above and beyond CDC guidelines. Get your act together governor Polis!

Fantastic experience: For such a small amount of space, they’ve really optimized what they have to work with. Plus, the other gym go-ers are always friendly and ready to spot you if you need it. They have all the equipment I need, fast and friendly front desk staff, clean equipment, and 2 awesome hot tubs, a sauna, and a steam room.

Fantastic experience: I love this place. Clean, well equipped, and staffed by lovely people. Lafayette residents are truly fortunate to have this resource.

Fantastic experience: Nice to have around for those cold days we can't go outside. Kids enjoy the pool area for sure. Could use an update soon.

Fantastic experience: Great amenities, as a frequent gymgoer. Rarely busy for very long, and when it is busy, generally only cardio or machines are used and free weights are often open. Place feels very welcoming, longtime lifters frequent here as well as newbies.

Fantastic experience: A lil pricey for local day pass but the women locker room is top notch! Awesome private showers and a nice sauna.

Fantastic experience: Best sauna this side of the Mississippi. World class hot tubs (indoor and outdoor), excellent pressure.

Fantastic experience: Fun for the whole family, this rec center is well organized and a affordable way to entertain the kids. The staff is friendly and there is even a adult only hot tub outside.

Fantastic experience: It's a lovely place with lots of room inside to run. There's a large water slide and a smaller one for the little kids. There's what looks like an 8-Lane lap pool for serious swimmers and several jacuzzi hot tubs throughout. The parking was a little different. It's next to an elementary school and I almost parked there thinking it was the rec center. Aside from that, pretty good experience.

Fantastic experience: Great way to stay in shape. Ha. This was a quaint indoor fun location for our children although the lazy river was a pond and the amenities listed were unavailable due to the lifeguards laziness.

Fantastic experience: Bob Burger Rec Center is an outstanding facility and the best gym value in east Boulder county. I've had an annual membership for the last six or seven years. The weight room is usually not too crowded in the early mornings (5-7am) and there is a good variety of free weights and machines. I've also been involved in the masters swim program for many years, and that's a great group with excellent coaches.

Fantastic experience: Way better than anticipated. Their indoor pool is fantastic for little people. You don't have to be a Lafayette resident to go.

Fantastic experience: I love this place for working out, playing basketball, and swimming. I recommend this place especially in the winter for a great time swimming with friends.

Fantastic experience: Great rec center. Love the pool. They have 6 lanes open til 10:30 am. The outdoor hot tub is the perfect place to relax after hard intervals. Locker room are kept clean.

Fantastic experience: Nice rec center with lots to do. The kids love the swimming pool here and it has a great selection of swim lessons during the summer.

Fantastic experience: Very clean which is much appreciated. Only $5 is a great deal for everything they have. Nice outdoor hottub, pool, saunas and plenty of exercise equipment.

Fantastic experience: I love Bob L Burger Rec Center in Lafayette. I've been going there several times a week for 6 years and it feels like my home away from home. The staff, the facilities and the activities are all first class.

Fantastic experience: The best gym in Boulder county! The coolest people and good equipment. Not cramped and stuffy like most other gyms.

Fantastic experience: This is such an asset to our neighborhood! Clean, friendly, well-staffed. They offer free locks when you go in, and the locker rooms are comfy and clean. I highly recommend going.

Fantastic experience: Excellent in everyway. Responsive to all age groups, abilities, and requests if possible. I found staff were helpful and cheerful even during their busy times. They have full service SeniorSneakers programs, multiple classes for all levels and ages, facilities are clean and well maintained. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: For a city owned rec center, this is pretty good. Especially since it's cheaper than the Boulder Recs or the YMCA. Great staff and weight room equipment. The pool temperature could be a little lower and more lane space availability, but you can't please everyone...

Fantastic experience: Most inexpensive place with the MOST amenities. I wonder if they could work out staying open until 10 at least Monday through Friday? Closing at 7 on Friday is pretty early for some schedules
