Stopped in just before closing to have a look. Didn't expect to get a tour, but very friendly front desk person took us through, showed us everything. All of the employees said hi, and the place was clean and well equipped. I'm impressed - likely joining.

Not a member yet. But joined a friend and took swim lessons with my toddler. Everyone was friendly and the pool was great. For a first time I loved it

Nice facility. Not a "meat market". Enjoyable for the more mature clientele. Every type of exercise and sport to keep you moving.

I like it. Needs remodeling, some workers are annoying, a few lifeguards kicked me out of the pool 15 minutes early, and it should be open to everyone all the time. Other than that, its a pretty good athletic club.

I love Lakeshore and the staff are great. They act like they are waiting just for you and go out if their way to answer questions (exception for Sunday’s). Mostly I love their equipment and the circuits they have set up to help with upper body, core, & lower body strength. I have been to all other gyms in Vancouver area and none are set up so I can go in, exercise & get out with ease and less time. I drove about 34 total miles every other day for several years just to go to this gym, but they are so popular that there is no longer any parking available...even their extended parking and street parking is full. I have tried many different times of the day & it still does not work for me. I can go on Sundays, but need to go to a gym more than once a week. I really miss this fitness center.

My family have been a member of lake shore for several years. Several of our friends have left the club due to the cost, employee's and management. We are not far behind them. I joined Lake Shore because it was to be a family club. Which it is not. My kid's love to play volleyball. They are kicked out every Monday night at 8 pm. We are told that's adult time. My are not the only kid's.The staff is very rude. From Managers right down to the employees. They don't tell you the truth and when you call them on it their attitude is, If you don't like it cancel your membership and go else where. Well, my answer is.. OK I will. I'm in search of a new Athletic Club to join that is family friendly.I can go on but looking at some of the other reviews, I really don't need to.

Lake Shore has kinda gone downhill for me. It is in serious need of repairs & updates. Plus the owner still wants us to mail a check every month not debt accounts. Only saving Grace seems to be the great staff and outdoor pool. But the outdoor pool is only good for a couple months. Not to mention the swim schedule is weird. But Its still a great family gym. I also enjoy thier support for our elderly community.

Really enjoyed my quest pass would recommend to others. Pool cleanIndoor and outdoor. Changing rooms beautiful privacy for all. Clean and a swimsuit spin dry 😃 wonderful dry sauna. Hot tub just right until i was told by a young girl about all the dead skin floating she could see in the water. Glad for a shower. Truely great experience. Shy of Jacuzzi water.
