Main use if for cable machines and they have a few, thankfully. Pool options aren't the biggest which I think was a fail on their end as we do not have a lot options on this side of town. Would love to see something like this in New Haven/Woodburn

Great facility! The building is clean and the staff is friendly. I actually go here for Parkview's physical therapy (they use a section of the building) and it's been a great experience. My parents both have Y memberships here though and they love it. My mom does a group exercise class in the mornings and my dad plays racquetball regularly. Highly recommend!

It's a very nice and clean facility. The staff members are always very nice, polite and helpful. I have aquatic therapy in their pool which is always well kept, clean and plenty of lifeguards on duty. I just wish it was closer to my house.

Excellent place to get your body right. I take my son swimming there and is accommodating for toddlers. Missed out on 5 stars because of kids play area still being closed and no hot tub.

I’ve been going to this Y for about a year and a half now. Staff is super helpful and friendly and the grounds are kept super clean. I’d you’re looking for a YMCA location for your family, look no further. I live in this area so it’s a perfect location for me. Can’t wait to continue to keep going to this YMCA for as long as I can

Best Y in Fort Wayne, hands down. Very clean and helpful service. The layout and saunas and classes and everything are awesome. Lots more options than other gyms. I love the stretch area,i took off one star because I just hate the Ys time schedule how it closes so early and EXTRA early on weekends. Not everyone is free in the early morning and afternoon.

Very pleased. Excellent staff. Many programs to choose from. Multiple classes available. Good hours. Good availability of cardio machines. Occasionally have to wait on machines or free weights during peak usage times. Facility is always clean and in good condition.

I was very impressed by this facility. It had a beautiful atmosphere. I loved their scripture verse bowl and verses painted on the walls. I was coming in as a young man was taking the flag down. I was pleased to see he was making sure it did not hit the ground. But he wadded it up in his arms and carried it in. One suggestion though. Teach your staff how to fold a flag the proper way. Our nation is getting so far from respecting this national treasure. Taking a flag is a 2 person privilege. Thanks for listening.

This Y has a great variety of cardio equipment. Its always neat and clean, staff are friendly and helpful. Free weight and weight machine area is a bit crowded and there's very few classes after 3PM at this location.
