Richcraft Recreation Complex is a major recreational facility that is located in the Kanata district of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

Groundbreaking on the complex took place back in December 2011; the official grand opening took place in November 2013. The $43.14-million recreation complex has an eight-lane swimming pool, a leisure and therapeutic pool, two full gymnasiums, a fitness and cardio centre, multi-purpose rooms, a lighted sports field with artificial turf and an outdoor skate park.[1] The complex owned by the City of Ottawa is located at 4101 Innovation Drive, in the Kanata North Business Park.

In 2011 Richcraft Homes agreed to pay $500,000 for a 15-year naming rights agreement for the recreation complex.[2] The complex is also an access point to the Trillium Woods, a 15-kilometre multi-use trail network for hiking and mountain biking.[3]
