…Basketball, rock climbing, karate classes, jogging on upper level track, roller skating, in-line hockey, fitness center and more.

★★★★☆ — Jason, Jun 2022

…There’s a big field with a track around it plus there’s a big hill going up Green Oaks that is great to work out on. Four stars because of the homeless living in the woods. The path off green oaks into the woods is so sketchy and creepy nobody wants to use it.
