Campus Recreation Center

Great indoor track (10 laps to a mile, above basketball courts). Not crowded during normal class hours. Membership open to alumni, staff, and current students of UMass and MCC. Parking is not a factor for students living on campus so not a priority, but there is a little bit plus a six-storey garage across the street. Actual gym is medium to large sized depending on what you're used to. There is a second flood with cardio machines, a smaller dumbbell area, and some machines. The first floor has a larger dumbbell area, freeweight benches, and heavier machines. 2 class studios. Restrooms on each floor. Handicap accessible. Very clean.

Best basketball courts and lifting gym in Lowell. Update. September 1, 2019 There are only two things that annoys me after coming here for many years now. The admins always schedule “events” not basketball related on the basketball courts. You won’t be able to play basketball on a regular basis. There are at least 2 events that will take up the entire basketball court through the week. Ex. Orientation, seminars, or graduations. Parking in the back of the building is usually great because it’s gated but signs are not enforced. There is designated parking but all staff or guest will park in members limited spots. You will be able to tell because members have parking passes and security will ticket your car if you don’t display the pass properly. Yet security will allow any none members to park in designated spots.

I just joined for daily walks on their track. It's a great facility, neat and clean. I enjoy my 40 minute walks. Best place for daily walks in winter.

The planet fitness gym equipment is 100x better these machines, they are cheap and are in desperate need of repair, as well as them being packed liked sardines next to each other. There also isn’t enough equipment to satisfy the demand of a college gym.

Better than Fox gym because it's less busy and the staff is definitely not rude idk where other reviewers got that idea from
