Just OK. 4 out of 6 bikes have something wrong with them, TV screen not working, Head set jack not working. Workout screen settings not working. In the workout area people sitting on equipment using cell phone and not workingout . Maybe they are workingout there fingers??? Saving equipment with towel or water bottle and workingout at the same time on other equipment. No consideration for other members.

Horribly inconsistent with enforcement of policy. Seems that they pick and chose who they want to make follow the rules. This goes for everything. Most recently in regards to guest usage. We saw that you could only bring a guest once every 60days but we didn't notice that until after the 3rd visit. No one ever said a single thing to us until we make the 30 minute drive to get here and now they want to enforce it. Interesting.

Love this Life Time location! I am not a super fit gym buff, but I feel so comfortable here. The account manager (Curtis) was very helpful throughout the registration process. The Kid Center staff (Kaylie, Katelyn, Brina...) are great with kids and so pleasant. The kids' programs and camp are magnificent beyond compare! The kids' camp offers more than what I could offer at home--STEM activities, character development, field trips, swimming, sports and games--they do it all! Despite not knowing anyone, my five year old felt right at home from day one!Christine at the activities desk is super kind and helpful. Nica and Nico are always available to help. The camp staff is well-trained and are all so wonderful. The group fitness instructors are inspiring, encouraging, positive and professional. Saira, the AMP cycle and C9 instructor is a gem--and a real asset to the gym. She connects with each member and truly has a unique brand.My sons and I are known by name, and it's feels great to be at Lifetime! I know there are several gyms in the area, but the quality of service and facilities make Lifetime the obvious choice for someone striving for a healthy mind-body-soul balance.

Nice facility but highly disappointed to find that i was being charged for a number of things i never signed up for. For example, i was charged 6 months for a "Lifetime Magazine" that i never signed up for nor ever seen come in the mail. The magazine charge appear in the monthly membership fee on your statement so you can't see the charge unless you sit down with a lifetime employee and make them show you the break down of your monthly fee. The employee told me that every member is automatically signed up for this until they cancel it... slapping on a secret charges is unethical

I participate in various weekday 5am group fitness classes. The place is 1 mile from my house and very conveniently located. The gym has a lap pool, racquetball courts, basketball / volleyball courts (no tennis court / running track), kids pool, kids swim lessons, kids daycare (2 hrs), hot tub, steam rooms, sauna, etc. Locker rooms are nice. Members at the gym and instructors are all fun folks, this is a great place to be.

I have been a member since 2009 and LOVE Lifetime Fitness. Great management, staff and group fitness instructors. I look forward to Jill's kickboxing and TCX classes, as well as group fitness classes/personal training with Don. Ray, I believe the head manager of Lifetime, is personable and I see him doing everything from folding clean towels to greeting members and making sure the fitness floor is tidy. Robyn never stops working and is also very friendly and attentive.The childcare center staff is dedicated to the safety of the children. The staff worked with me since my son was 3 months old to make him comfortable, but unfortunately my son does not tolerate being at any childcare center.Even the café staff is very friendly!It is expensive, but you get what you pay for. Clean equipment, clean locker room, café, pool, childcare center, etc.Only suggestion is to possibly have a fitness boutique on premise. Fashionable, fun clothing all in one stop.

Nice gym, but Lifetime fitness Spa sucks. Spa employees are very rude people. They charge a lot but services are bad. Manicures and pedicures are made unprofessionally, and instead of the 60 min massage that you paid for, you would receive 40 min because of all the stupid paper work you have to fill it out.

Recently joined. Expensive but lots of amenities. If you do not have children. Seems like each person so far has something different to say as far as policy. There's been a bit to many "well technically"s so far. I started to bring my own cleaning spray if I need to use showers. *Enough said. Will let you know in a week or so if anything changes. Oh and yes the spa is WAY over priced and the massage my husband received was "ehh, not worth my time. Won't go back for services there."Oh and the child center is a hassle. My 7 year old does not want to sit with the toddlers because you want to sit and chat! ! I hope things improve and this is just a couple bad days...although I feel like I shouldn't have to be the one going out of my way to make it a decent experience (isn't that their job) for the cost especially!

Fantastic gym with excellent equipment and facilities! Open minded with flexible terms no fixed contracts or cancellation fees. I love this Gym they also allow you to put your membership on hold during holidays while gaining Life Time points 10 a month.Very nice life changing gym A+ all the way.

Nice gym but very expensive. It has everything you need to get a good workout and the staff and those who attend are very nice. Now for the bad news it is very crowded at peak times and the towels feel like sandpaper!
