3 reviews for The Lodge of Des Peres
This is strictly a review of this pool, b/c I have never used anything else here.
However.
BEST pool in St. Louis. I swear it. As a former "pool inspector" and lifeguard, I know my good pools. This place is pristine. It has everything you could ever want in a good pool complex. Lazy River, area to wade, deeper water. Lap Pool, Wave pool indoors. Slides, concession stand, etc. etc. It's just great.
Also, the place is always up to health code. Seriously, I love this place. I will gladly pay the non-resident fee to go here. Seriously...my favorite summertime pool hangout.
Lazy river, curly-cue slides, a plethora of fitness classes...the ideal spot to soak in the sun or work out your buns. I became a member here a few years ago and loved it because there were hardly any young people. Not that I'm an ageist or anything, but when I'm at the gym I appreciate the calm quiet and lower hormone level of an older crowd. I also loved it because it was hardly ever crowded, and they even post a bar graph of how many patrons are working out at each hour so you can plan for a less crowded time. Now that's what I call attentive service!
Their locker rooms are clean (highly unusual), and they even have an indoor wave pool (also highly unusual). I can no longer afford the membership but I still come to swim because of the lazy river and pristine amenities. They also have a food stand where you can buy anything from a veggie burger to fruit to Dippin' Dots. That's my kind of place!
a community fitness center for everyone...
the lodge has a fitness center with nautilaus nitro, free weights, treadmills, elipticals, etc.;
personal training,
indoor track for walking (moms with strollers welcome at certain hours),
swimming (indoor & outdoor in warm weather),
mini water slide for kids,
sauna,
steam room,
large jacquizi,
party rooms,
meeting rooms,
classes & programs for everything from yoga to camps for kids,
comfy lounges with a large fireplace or tv for before & after,
and more stuff than i can recall....
love the nautilaus nitro machines. a complimentary orientation from Frank and i was ready to go.
cost is very reasonable. we don't live in des peres, so i pay a non-resident fee. you can be billed monthly or pay for a year up front, which saves you $60.
when we moved to stl, i could not find a full-service fitness center that matched what i was used to....
now, at last, i have! love it!
