The main gym is excellent! The classes are great too. Enjoy the heated pool. The Staff is friendly and helpful. The women's locker rooms need a total make over though.

It's easy to leave feedback when you have an unpleasant experience, but there's a reason I wake up early, and it's because I love my 6 AM crew, and the Les Mills classes are the best! The Les Mills instructors are passionate! The staff is welcoming and helpful! Especially Jeff at the front desk; he makes you feel like you are part of the Y community! Shout out to our favorite instructor John, who always brings it!

Cancelled my membership in September and they have continued to bill me every month despite refunding me for incorrectly billed months. I now have to get my bank involved.

I joined on Tuesday April 4th 2023. When I got home, I got thinking about what happened when I was there, and I realize nobody ever gave me a tour of the aquatic area. I kind of felt like I was being rushed away that day. That was the impression I felt that day. i’m gonna be going back to start my first classes aquatic area, hopefully I’ll be able to get a five star rating.

The Young Men's Christian Association was originally built for veterans. This place gives a measly 10% off to disabled veterans. Most YMCA's give 50% off to disabled veterans.
