YMCA of Monroe County - Southeast

Great place to work out. Could use a sauna or steam room in the upstairs locker area.

We have loved our YMCA membership this year. I’ve brought my toddler almost every week to swim—The pool is excellent (space and temperature-wise) and rarely crowded on weekdays. I have enjoyed the Zumba classes offered (quite the community there) and the opportunity for childcare is so helpful. Feeling very lucky to have this facility so close to us!

The YMCA is a great community asset. Here are my pros & cons:Pros:* The people who work in front and answer the phones are friendly and helpful.* There are options for childcare when you work out.* There's plenty of equipment and fun classes.* They have a great summer camp for neurotypical children.* There's ample parking.Cons:* It's a little pricey; we pay $79/month* Childcare hours and availability are minimal.* Summer camp isn't suitable for the neurodivergent, which is unfortunate since autism and ADHD are rising.* The Wellness and Support Services Director hasn't responded to my emails, but it's the only way to reach him.* I wasn't able to reach the camp director, so I had to pay for an extra week of summer camp even though my son wasn't able to attend every day.Communication has been abysmal. Text messaging or setting up voicemail would be a helpful alternative to email. Most professionals get a ton of emails each day, but they always respond if they're well organized.

Great place!

Do not honor elderly silver sneakers.They want contribution with out contributing.

Great place to avoid being fat. Like, imagine unironically being fat. Eating more calories than your body possibly needs and it stores in unflattering parts of the body. That would be crazy! 🤣 …

Nice basketball courts, pool, and running track. Antiquated work out equipment. Almost impossible to find a useful cable grip, anything with "padding" is degraded to the level of painful, and a few of the pieces should be avoided altogether (ie the fly machine that pulls unevenly and can cross itself, and seated thigh machine being held together with a screw and digs into your shins). Given the cost of membership I seriously wonder where the money goes as it hasn't been reinvested in this place for a long time. If it's convenient, this place is OK, but there's better out there.

Gets the job done, but doesn't serve it's most common customer base very well. Most people come to lift weights, but the free weight room is by far the smallest room in the gym, even though it's always the most crowded. Seems counter intuitive when there's rooms that are double the size with 0-3 people in them at all times. The cardio room right besides the free weight room is double if not triple the size as the free weight room and it's never even filled to half capacity. The crescent room across the courts is always empty and locked. They could put some free weights in the crescent room and it would definitely serve a higher common denominator of people.Second most common goer goes to play basketball. But most days 4/6 courts are reserved for a dozen people to play indoor tennis for hours at a time. The wooden court is dying in all the spots where the nets are placed, just doesn't seem very rational but maybe the Y knows something that I don't.

Thank you for your review, Cole!

Great place for workout and swim. Come here almost everyday with my family.
