Boise State University Recreation Center

Mostly here for swimming. Great pool quality and clear visibility without smell. Neat locker room and shower equipment. Good programs of kids swimming lessons. Friendly staff, too.

It just a great place to hang out playing with your friends or work out playing games

The Boise State Rec is an amazing place. Super clean. Great staff. Wonderful sauna. Spacious. If you're a student at Boise State, don't miss out on this great amenity! (You'll probably miss it later.)

Great selection of equipment, well stocked weight room. The snobby gym rat dudes can be a little off putting in the weight room, and I've been advised more than once that I should lift lighter with more reps cuz I'm a lady, but after giving them a good glare and doing my thing they back off. They aren't mean or rude, just presumptuous. I prefer to go late at night so I don't have to wait for barbells and such, but even during peak hours I've been able to find something else to do. Staff is always friendly, and generally people have a good vibe.

Plenty of cardio equipment as well as a 1/11 mile indoor track. Lots of free weights and three basketball courts. Overall it's not usually too crowded here, but weights and basketball courts sometimes get too full. The pool has plenty of lanes and the racquetball courts are almost always available.
