Thoreau club, especially the pool, is a great place for people who want to exercise and have fun doing it. Always clean and well taken care of. And the whole family can enjoy it. And Wendy Hammond-Wildes can teach swimming anybody who is willing to learn.

Thoreau is awesome! I love the tennis lessons. The trainer has helped double my strength in my exercises. I can now deadlift 225.

My kids have been enjoying the summer membership at the Thoreau club for many years! Two beautiful outdoor pools, 2 hot tubs, and a splash pad! Plenty of parking and food available from Julianna's cafe. This is a great option for the summer.

Summer pool membership for family was fabulous and definitely worth it! We came here so often this summer with our toddler. The social aspect was a draw for us, we enjoyed hanging out with other young families & friends in town here. Just recently, I tried out their gym & the childcare in Kaleidoscope with our newest baby. My infant is very well cared for while I get a ‘break’ to work out. We decided to extend our membership beyond summer, finding great value in some of the other offerings beyond the pools! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great pools and friendly staff. The bungalows and grills are a nice touch. Large enough pools and grass that you won't even notice a large birthday party. Juliana's snack bar is great for a quick bite or ice cream for the kids.

The personnel was very courteous. Was there for a group outing, and when the food ran out, they made sure I received some, despite my late arrival. Includes a large pool, a Zipline, and a rope challenge course. The fact that you must ascend the tree using a short ladder makes the zipline amusing. The effort required to climb is not worth the pleasure, particularly after eating.

Long-standing, well-maintained sports and fitness club in Acton, Massachusetts. I used the tennis courts, which are well-maintained and equipped with tennis balls, picks, etc., and found the staff to be generally cordial and helpful. Winter tennis courts do feature bubbles.

Great place but really needs additional poolside seating. Totally insufficient, sadly. Had to spend hours sitting at a picnic table while my kiddos swam.

Great pools and friendly staff. Looking forward to the opening this year, but while we wait the bubble is toasty warm and gives us a chance to get a few laps in.

I love this place. The gym and the pool have a positive environment. The prices are high so my wife and I have trouble affording it. But I have lots of childhood memories of it that are fun.

Staffs are very friendly and professional. The rock climbing is pretty fun and good for beginners. Zip line is a bit short and again suitable for kids.
