Gym / aquatic center in the Woodbridge area (Dale City, Manassas: price, swimming pool)

[adhoc9]

Looking for a gym in the Woodbridge area, as far south as Triangle and as far north as Newington. Somewhere off 95 corridor between these 2 points.

Ideally with a swimming pool. Or an aquatic center with a few fitness machines.

An extensive search didn't produce desired results.
Chinn Aquatics kind of comes close, their hours are a bit strange.

Onelife fitness has a pool and looks nice but their reviews are terrible on top of questionable (but tolerable) hours.

Then there are several 24 hour gyms like Anytime Fitness that gets great reviews for all of its locations except 2 stars for the Woodbridge one. And I want something with a pool, ideally. Not sure what to do.
Any other options I missed?

In addition to Chinn, Sharron Baucom Recreation Center in Dale City also has both exercise equipment and a pool. It is smaller than Chinn, and it may have more limited hours.

Do you need it to have particularly early or late hours?

LA Fitness in Potomac Mills area is a full size gym with pool.

You're not gonna find many chain gyms with amazing reviews as they are left a lot over billing issues, personal trainers, etc.

Chinn is a county rec center (as is the Dale City rec center), so it does have limited hours, especially on the weekend. But Chinn's main attraction is the HUGE, Olympic size pool. The Freedom Center (in Manassas) is much newer and very nice, and also has an Olympic size pool. Not to mention multiple very nice racquetball courts.

I was a member at Anytime Fitness in Woodbridge. I haven't been since March 2020 due to the pandemic. It was very nice, very clean. But it was kind of pricey, and kind of small. And it doesn't have a locker room. But because it's pricey, that means it isn't as crowded as some place like Gold's or Export Fitness. I went to Export a couple of times on a trial, and the place was ALWAYS packed, which means you have to wait to get on the machines/weights you want. Both Export and Anytime are 24 hours a day.

But neither Anytime nor Export have a pool.
