Breckenridge Community Recreation Center

I swam here four times in March. All four times there was a sign at the front desk saying swimming was on a wait list but was able to swim laps right away. I think the wait list may have been for the leisure pool with the waterslide. The first time they asked me if I would mind sharing and I laughed-I said of course-that's never a problem. The pool is clean, as are the locker rooms.

The pool wasn't crowded at all at 4:30 PM on a Friday in April. I had a lane all to myself. The facility is being maintained well (I try to swim once whenever I come to ski).

I visited the pool after skiing on a Wednesday night during the March spring break time. There was one person in each lane. The people were friendly. You will need a lock for a locker. Locks and towels can be rented at the pool. It is a nice facility. There is a local team that uses the facility and their schedule appears on the website. My impression is that the people there were locals (everyone else has been skied into submission).

A good, clean pool. Kickboards, fins, and paddles are provided. There are dedicated lap swimming hours, so it's best to check the schedule. There's a link to the schedule on the center's website (linked to the name, above). During tourist season, the pool gets quite busy, and they occasionally remove some of the lap lanes to make room for basketball games. When it's really busy, kids are all over the place making it difficult to swim.

6-punch and 10-day passes make sense for longer visits.
