N.E Tarble Recreation Center Carthage College

We attended the gym for our homeschool PE and it was such a great experience. The student teachers were absolutely amazing with the kids. Everything was so clean and organized. My kids thought it was great, they can't wait for class next week. I'm so thankful that Carthage not only supports ,but also hosts such a great opportunity for the kids. The PE program for the college students must also be just as amazing because those instructors were top notch. They will do great in the future for sure.

Updated Review - 12/30/22: Back for another high school basketball game at Carthage College’s N.E. Tarble Athletic and Recreation Center. Super easy parking. Friendly staff. Everything was great again this time. I will say it again…. This is a great place to watch sporting events! ————————————————————————— Original Review: Great place to watch a basketball game! We went for a high school game during Christmas break. The facility is beautiful. Great floor. Clean building. Plenty of parking. Spotless restrooms. Friendly staff. It was a perfect experience. I can’t wait to go back to see to Carthage play a basketball game! I highly recommend the N. E. Tarble Athletic and Recreation Center.

Never have the basketball hoops down even when there's no one using them. gym is okay, rock climb is nice, good pool.

This is a really cool facility on a really pretty campus. I was there for a swim meet and went to the pool area. While some of the facilities were smaller, like the break room for coaches concession and the restroom areas, the pool itself and deck are quite nice and spacious. 10 Lanes makes it an interesting size as well. Looking forward to seeing some upgrades for the timing system and maybe some extra speakers for the starter.

It's a nice place! Pretty clean and the services offered are plentiful. However the hours offered holidays are irregular just as a heads up. Maintenance has been keeping machines fixed..

Beautiful campus right on the shores of Lake Michigan... I drive a full size large motor coach, I have been on campus 4 times now with different teams over the last couple years, and before I’m even done unloading my team security is there to chase my bus out that quickly...the college should give the security personnel a class on civility because there not very friendly!!

I love the swimming program at Carthage! 1:2 instructor ratio with personal progress updates from the instructor.

Parking for graduation was very well organized! Such a beautiful campus

Student orientation today so no sports. But this is an awesome facility.

Nice arena for college athletics
