💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •When visiting the Cottonwood Heights Recreation Center, aim for weekdays early in the morning or late afternoons to avoid crowds, especially during peak family hours. Wear comfortable athletic clothing and bring a swimsuit for the pool, as well as ice skates if you have them, although rentals are available. Insider tip: check the schedule for special events or themed skating nights for a unique experience. For safety, ensure you supervise children closely, especially in the pool and climbing areas, and familiarize yourself with facility rules. Don’t miss the stunning mountain backdrop for photos, especially during sunset; the climbing wall area offers great angles. Lastly, remember to respect local etiquette by cleaning up after yourself and being courteous to staff and fellow visitors.
