Summer Cove
Park
👍👍 Such a GREAT PLAYGROUND. It's clean and right by the beach, Russell's Landing. A few years back they put in a splash area with water cannons, etc.. Gets crowded in the summer, but it's a pretty big playground so there's a lot of room and additional fields surrounding it for the kids to play unob...

Fitness center
😠 Went to aquatic physical therapy at this gym, hit the sauna, then went to shower. I was standing in the shower, naked, water running, shampoo in hand when an employee named Bill came into the shower and started yelling at me to leave because they needed to close the locker room for cleaning. I tried...
