Walton Life Fitness Center

Great staff great facility

This facility has everything you need - and YES - it for Wal-Mart associates or their family members (Mark - you cannot rate a facility 1-star because you couldn't get in because you don't work for the company or just pay a fee to get in, ridiculous! That's how most private clubs are, in fact. There are plenty of other gyms in the area from which to choose if you can't get into the WLFC.)nnThat said, if you happen to work for Wal-Mart, the company encourages a healthy lifestyle that won't break the bank for much more than just a gym membership. It has 3 indoor pools, an indoor jogging track, indoor running track, separate indoor and outdoor tennis facility and another track around that, all the cardio and weight equipment you require, a circuit training room, massage rooms, plenty of locker rooms, basketball courts, a little cafe/vending area, every class you can imagine (yoga, kickboxing, step, barre, weights, aqua, etc.) Kids activities such as tennis, gymnastics, soccer, swim lessons, and more are available for a small additional cost. Childcare is also available for a small fee.nnThe only criticism I have is that it could use a little TLC cosmetically, but then again, I go to the gym to work out, not because it looks pretty (though that never hurts)nnBottom line - it is fantastic!

Walmart flew me into bentonville for contract work in their data center. They would not let me use their work out facilty as a guest.

I was on vacation to visit family in Bentonville and decided to get a workout in with my son. Went to the fitness center on Christmas Eve day and was turned away since I do not work for walmart or bring someone who did. Could not even pay as a guest to use the facility.

Awesone place!
