  • I was only at the semi chlorine semi salt pool it is large clean and set up for swimming exercise on one half. Excellent staff. The atmosphere in the pool area is little drab , but good for a swim.

  • Not too expensive, weight room is a good size, has a pool, sauna, and steam room. Lots of classes.

  • I love love love the people that work here and go here. But the weight room—yikes. It’s getting worse and worse. Makes it frustrating to train. The equipment is falling apart. Rust so bad you have to hammer them out the racks. The jhooks on the power rack look like they’re about to crumble apart. Plates and dumbbells are losing all their rubber coating. Today the leg extension pad was hanging off the machine. I heard they’re replacing the floors. Why replace the floors when equipment needs serious updating? The floors can wait. Looking for a new gym :(

  • Outstanding facility, ladies up front and swimming coaches and guards you could want. Very flexible with VETS and understanding. Has been a true blessing to me. Chief and Tobias.

  • Really enjoy Rec Center, specifically the pool. I started going there rehab for back surgery, and eventually with guidance from several people start swimming laps. So it’s not shiny fanciest place, however, it’s really functional. The whole weight cardio area has a lot of machines and plenty of them, and not broke. The pool tiles missing on the wall, not in the pool, but on the wall of the room, things are not shiny there either, but it’s really functional and taken care of. So I would highly recommend the effort Rec Center to anyone, the value of it is way superior than the other locations in the area, which are a lot pricier.

Questions parents ask about EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER

Is EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER a licensed child care provider in Pennsylvania?

Yes. EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER holds Pennsylvania certificate 104472970-0001, listed as "LICENSED" by the Office of Child Development and Early Learning in Lancaster County. The current certificate runs to April 21, 2027. Confirm current standing at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch before enrolling.

What is EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER's Keystone STARS rating?

Pennsylvania rates EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER STAR 2, on a scale of one to four where four is highest. That tier took effect on March 4, 2026. Keystone STARS measures programme standards such as staff qualifications and learning environment, not inspection outcomes.

Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER?

No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER at the time the record was published. That is a single field in a snapshot, not a full compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. The licensing inspection detail is at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch.

Does EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER accept child care subsidy?

Yes. EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER holds a subsidy agreement with the state. An agreement means the provider can bill the subsidy programme, not that a funded place is free today. Eligibility is decided by your Early Learning Resource Center, Early Learning Resource Center for Region 10.

Does this page show inspection results for EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER?

No. Pennsylvania completes at least one unannounced inspection a year at every licensed provider, and publishes the results through the provider search at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch. Those results are not included here, and there is no open dataset of them, so nothing on this page reflects EPHRATA RECREATION CENTER's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
