Edmonds Community Centre

Brand new facilities, although a little small (steam room, sauna, hot tub) this is a gorgeous new pool. Lots of fun for little ones with the lazy river and shallow pools, and plenty of lap lanes open for adults. I really enjoyed all the deck chairs for snoozing near the hot tub. Parking can be a bit difficult as we usually see all the underground parking is full before driving around the surrounding streets to find somewhere to park.

I arrived here on Sunday to do my leg day workout. Let me tell you, in terms of the center, I am happy they renovated this place. It used to be this tiny place with barely any representation for Southeast Burnaby. However, this new building has definitely brought back life for the area.
In the gym, there are at least 30 treadmills, 2 bench presses, 4 squat racks, free weights and a variety of machines. This is a greater gym then most of the gyms in the Burnaby recreation centers.
+ half a star for the returnable quarter lockers. The other places do not have them.

I recently started coming here regularly as it is close to my new job, so it’s easy to stop on the way home from work. It’s a great facility, with a large and very well-​equipped gym that is usually not too busy. Needs more room for floor work though– the only space is by the front doors and it’s pretty small compared to amount of people the gym can hold. Gets crowded with more than a handful of mats.
Very nice pool, good jacuzzi except I wish it had better jets like at Eileen Dailly– which is probably the best public hot tub in the lower mainland. I like that he pool has a large supply of training tools like hand paddles. Beware that on Wednesday nights it is $ 1.00 swim– PACKED and nigh impossible to get a spot in the jacuzzi or do any serious lengths.
Nice staff, most clientele seems pretty friendly and a good range of different types of people– no need to feel intimidated by steroid monkeys here!
My one complaint has been mentioned by others on Unilocal– the men’s changing room is WAY too small and cramped. Even adding a small tiered bench in the middle of the seating area would allow more room to change and put your gear down– it’s always a total hassle. Whoever designed this space had NO idea what they were doing. But that’s my only gripe– good place to go for sure. Lots of other areas like basketball courts etc if that’s your thing. Free underground parking (if you can find a spot) and lots of free street parking also.
And I’m looking forward to summer when all those huge windows will let the sun stream in!

Great, modern pool with a gigantic water slide.
The men’s changing rooms are terrible though — tiny, postage stamp sized change area with floors covered in dirt, hair, grease and spit. Not sure how often they clean it. Change at home if you can, or use the washrooms in the lobby.

Need better & more accessable change room (it is a senior center after all). Change rooms for extra needs persons much like Eileen daily pool .The room in the life guard office area awesome. Nice water
the pool. No sloping gradual entry for a wheel chair assists. .A terrible thing to forget Good swim was had by all

I like the pool here. The gym is alright, would like more standards held of people putting weights away.
As for the change rooms for the pool, would love to have the plastic flooring so yo don’t have to stand on the gross floor.

Love the Aquasize classes, but there are a few bullies who haven’t read the Code of Conduct and aren’t very polite to others. We all pay to use the pool and have the right to take up space in the pool at the class. Please be kind and make room for your neighbour, try not to be a pool hog and smile. Don’t deliberately splash those in front of you that’s not cool. Added note that the UNIVERSAL area is for everyone including the showers. Some people continue to think they own the pool and can tell you where you should be. Please bring your patience when you are entering a facility where there are a lot of people.
