I cannot speak highly enough of my experience at this gym. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the cleanliness and professionalism of the staff. The facility is immaculately maintained, with state-of-the-art equipment and pristine workout areas. The staff members are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to assist with any questions or concerns. It's clear that they take pride in providing a top-notch experience for their members. The cleanliness standards at this gym are unparalleled. The equipment is regularly sanitized, and I always feel comfortable using it. The locker rooms and showers are spotless, which is a refreshing change from other gyms I've visited. Overall, I would highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a clean, safe, and welcoming environment to achieve their fitness goals. It's a true gem in the fitness community, and I look forward to continuing my membership for years to come!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

A strong destination for families visiting or based in Mount Gambier, especially during summer. Kids of all ages are well catered for between the splash pad, water slides, and learn-to-swim pool. Sports-focused families with older kids get genuine value from the courts.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Under-5s receive free entry with an accompanying adult — confirm current entry deals at the front desk
⏰Bring your own towels — showers have no temperature control and hot water is sparse post-swim
đŸŽŸī¸Multi-purpose courts suit basketball and racquet sports; book ahead during school holiday periods
🚗Change rooms get crowded during school swim-lesson blocks — arrive before or after those windows

“Awesome venue. Have been in everyday this past week casual shooting in the Basketball Stadium. We are on holidays from Melbourne and my 2 boys have Rep Basketball try outs coming up so we have been pushing hard. The staff have been awesome as have the facilities. People of Mt Gambier, your very lucky to have this facility we are very jealous. The staff in particular were very warm, welcoming and more than happy to assist in lowering the ring for my young daughter. I thought customer service was dead these days but wow. Thanks heaps guys cant wait to come back 11 out of 10”

“An Amazing place to enjoy, rather going to water theme parks I recommend to go with family and kids to enjoy. Kids will love the water slides and swimming pools. Lovely staff and friendly life guards. Plenty of change rooms, cafe and playground as well. Must visit if anyone travelling to Mt Gambier and best place to keep cool in summer. Affordable rates for access and kids below 5 yrs is free with 1 adult 2 kids.”

“Great outdoor pool which was very clean aswell as the bathrooms. No temperature control in showers which is my only complaint as a hot shower on a hot day isn't inviting. Friendly lifeguard on yesterday who was up for a chat and I wish him well in his swimming comp coming up!”
