Hawthorn Farm Athletic Club — Hillsboro’s Favorite Gym

I have been a member at Hawthorn Farm Athletic Club for over 2 years and have loved every aspect of the facility and the community since joining. I cannot recommend this club enough.

Excellent and attentive staff, clean and well maintained pool. The court area is excellent as well. Weights room has new equipment and plenty for the regular gym-goer.

I really like this gym! I go here to relax and de-stress as it is my happy place. Super clean and friendly staff what is not to like. The classes have me burning so many calories I can eat anything I want! Equipment is very nice they have everything you need to get a good workout. Oh the sauna and steam room top notch. Hoops, rock wall, pool, hot tub, towel service this gym has it all Kyle

This is a very large gym with comprehensive classes, equipment, and services for all kinds of activities. It feels like a gym and also a playground with the running track, court, rock climbing wall, multiple swimming pools, and outdoor seating areas. The gym also has dry sauna, steam room and an outdoor heated spa. The instructors are awesome. I took personal training sessions from Ty, and barre lessons from Dahui, who both are extremely experienced and knowledgeable. I have had a great experience at this gym.

Fantastic place, great classes, varied and challenging. Wonderful people.

Hawthorn Farms is a great place to exercise and the staff are amazing!

Hawthorn Farm Athletic Club (HFAC)was the gym we joined when we moved to Hillsboro 12 years ago and have been members ever since. I love the group classes in particular because of the wide variety of offerings. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. Instructors and trainers are knowledgeable and encouraging. This is a very inclusive gym with lots of choices for working out. I especially love the traditional "Burn the Turkey" all ages circuit class on Thanksgiving day because Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, but there are fun holiday themed classes throughout the year.HFAC is a great value for the price. I would recommend this club to anyone looking for a friendly and welcoming local fitness center.

I have been a member of this club for over 5 years. It offers a great clean and friendly environment to exercise, swim and participate in sports activities. I love all the options for pool use. I also love the jacuzzi and saunas. It is never overly crowded so you can always get on a machine or grab a lane to swim in. I highly recommend this club to anyone and it is especially great for families.

Me, my husband and two little kids have been going here for a little over two years now: we love it here. Our kids swim instructor Jake is AMAZING. Good hire for Hawthorne and a great swim instructor. Highly recommend. Julie at the front desk is so wonderful and always so helpful. I really can’t say enough good things about the all the staff. Carolyne in the child care center is wonderful and my kids absolutely love her and enjoy coming to play. The pools are nice and they have all the amenities we need to relax and enjoy a workout as a family.

HFAC has been awesome. The staff are kind and helpful, and the facilities are currently going through a really nice upgrade. There are activities for all ages, including a rock wall, weight and cardio rooms for 13+, and indoor and outdoor pools. My favorite feature is the self-manager program for kids so I can actually exercise.

I was a member here with my dad in high school/college and joined again with my kids right after Covid. Love this gym so much. It’s such a friendly place with all the amenities we need, including childcare with the most wonderful staff. I love the kids’ activities on the holidays too! And always having the pool to go. I go 3x/week and it’s basically my happy place for alone time and my workout. They have a good range of equipment and enough of it.

Summer camp this year was fantastic. My son has participated in Summer Camp at HFAC for 4 years now and this was our best yet. It was well organized, the camp counselors were well trained and my son felt safe and had fun. Highly recommend.

My two kids had a fun, great summer and their swimming and confidence in the pool improved tremendously.

Best summer camp for kids

Just signed up and have been super impressed with the facility, all the staff and how friendly everyone is!

Every time I’m there I have a great experience! Staffs amazing and everyone is so kind and helpful!

Everyone is really friendly from reception, maintenance and custodial to the awesome instructors. Live the facilities as well. Lots of natural light and open space.

We have been members since 2012. We just love the gym and the staff, especially Julie at the front desk, the GM Kristine, and Carolyn in kids central. My family had a wonderful time at the member party held July 12. We love spending our summers relaxing at the pool. Classes are fun and we hope to see more parties and engaging with other members. We also love the updated bistro and wonderful food options!

I joined when things started to open after Covid. You really cannot beat the convenience, price, and services at HFAC. Kristine has been the manager for close to a year now and has expanded what the club has to offer even more, she is great. There is a ton of new weight he lifting equipment, new classes, a cafe, expanded pickleball, a weekly social group for seniors. Kristine has done an amazing job of making this feel like a “club” where the whole family can hang out but adults can still have adult spaces. My kids love coming and can’t wait until they’re old enough to roam the club on their own. We are really happy to have joined.

HFAC offers something for everyone of all ages, and I especially appreciate the pristine level of cleanliness throughout the facility- even more so now than I recall several years ago when we were members before. The general manager Kristine went out of her way to personally ensure my family was invited to the club's 25 year anniversary party happening today; we have just very recently re-joined as members, and she knew we were unaware of the event, so it meant a lot to us. The celebration was a wonderful experience full of music, food, swimming, a bounce house, games, and the most lovely people! It was such a great reminder of this welcoming community, and we are thrilled to be back.

Joining Hawthorn Farms was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The facilities are top notch, the staff is friendly and accommodating, and the community is welcoming to all types of people. I was pretty out of shape when I joined, and was never made to feel bad about my physique or pushed beyond my comfort level. And thanks to their group classes and wonderful trainers, I went from hating exercise to it being my favorite part of the day. I especially recommend their morning cycle classes (if you go, tell ‘em Hank sent you!)

Where do I begin? World class. Very friendly and approachable staff and fellow members alike composed of all ages and backgrounds, first gym I made friends and connect with outside of gym (quality staff and members building community). Place is immaculate. spotless. ALWAYS. Thank you! Started with weightlifting classes for Olympic and powerlifting, some Pilates, some swimming, mostly an otter by spirit animal and all water bodies are ALWAYS on-point crystal clean BEAUTIFUL. Maybe some pickle ball in my future… Thank you for all of your help guidance and unwavering support. Truly a place for family for EVERYBODY genuinely INCLUSIVE. Generous parking, towels, no riff-raff, lots of opportunities to find peaceful place to read a book on pool deck or in cafe, have some alone time in family changing rooms for some self care while you take a break from all the hustle and bustle. Secure storage lockers don’t require a lock. Cafe food is excellent ; (but a little spendy, $11 breakfast sandwich?? But it is delicious! And can’t beat the atmosphere…. It’s like The Love Boat, cheers!!
