This location is great. It looks new, it's always clean, and it is very open. I like how there is two workout locations so it doesn't ever feel too crowded. The staff is great, very friendly, and helpful. I do wish they would match the heavier dumbbells though. They aren't the same size even though they are the same weight if that makes any sense. Also, they only have one 85 lb dumbbell so you can't use two of them for a workout. Otherwise, awesome place to workout.

Fairly well maintained and a large variety of age ranges that visit here. The workout area is pretty nice with lightly outdated, although in good condition machinery. Huge array of treadmills and a great place for anyone to start exercising or try to get back into shape. Would recommend to anyone nearby.

If I could give zero stars I would. To start off : My son and his Cub Scout pack are here for a Lock-In tonight at this location only because the Fallbrook YMCA wasn’t available. Our Leaders were told that we could get into the building at 9:45 (that was even a stretch to get the Director to do that) due to having such a large amount of kids and adults & we only have the pool from 10:00pm - 12:00am; so we needed some time to get everyone’s beds and whatnot set up in the gym & get changed for the pool. Well we were let in at 9:45 only to come into a dark gym with just enough light to kind of see where we were going to put our stuff down 😒😒 An employee then proceeded to come down in the gym and tell us we needed to exit the gym into the commons area because there was a “miscommunication” with the Director who already approved us to come in at 9:45 and that we weren’t even supposed to be in the building yet and we couldn’t be in the gym until the light was on due to safety reasons. Ok, I get that she has to do that, but the miscommunication is unbelievably ridiculous tonight. We were then told that they wouldn’t get any of the ping pong paddles, pool table equipment and nothing else out for the kids to play with which we understood that it would be taken out. All of the employees, with the exception of one really nice girl who directed us to where the like 10 towels were for the pool, looked like it was just a huge inconvenience to be here. Normally the gym is a “quiet” area for the boys and everyone else with a movie playing, and we got told that the lights would not be shut off until the boys are sleeping. What good is that going to do when this is a lock-in and the boys & other kids are going to be up ALL NIGHT??!?!!!? The WiFi was shut off which makes absolutely no sense. Our Pack spent a ridiculous amount of money that our Boys work so hard to raise by selling popcorn (which is the ONLY fundraiser the Council approves the boys to do during the year, so they work their tails off to raise as much money as they can for their activities for the year), for horrible customer service, a lack of anything for the kids to do (we did bring a few games for the kids to do, but usually the facility provides general activities for them to do), rude staff and absolutely horrible miscommunication! We will NOT be coming back again!

I walked into this facility and walked out within ten minutes. The upstairs workout area is dark and ultimately depressing, not to mention incredibly cramped. The machines were pretty outdated. You can hear the noise from the basketball court echoing in every area...well actually more like every noise everywhere. Overall, this place felt like a warehouse. Would not reccomend. Considering the Copple Family YMCA is ten minutes away and a much better environment, this YMCA’s setup really needs some revisitation.

YMCA pools are great. The gyms are there for all ages because of the youth gym and main gym. The ymca has a great game room for kids and WiFi for all. They have summer camps for your kids. YMCA even has a rock climbing wall. The YMCA is fun for all so I recommend going as soon as possible!

Great pool area, hot tub is nice. Top notch exercise equipment, and typically can stay an hour past closing on the smaller side.

The largest YMCA by membership and for good reason! Good facilities for exercise, an outdoor pool and picking up some basketball games. Some nice family events like TurkeyTrot and Silent Auction held throughout the year. The YMCA also has programs for families like Childwatch and Summer camps. true service to the community.

They cut benefits for their staff and lost a lot of great people as a result. Be especially wary of signing up for preschool. They will not keep your kid safe.
