0/5 StarsCost of membership does not equate to what you get from this gym. Membership is awful and not helpful.

Gym is fine but not part of the national system. If you get a Y membership here it WILL NOT work at any other YMCA. If you are looking for a national membership for a gym this is not the place. Will charge an arm and a leg and be useless except for this single location. They need to opt into the national program and have chosen not to.Edit(07/05/2022). This is in response to the official reply from brandywine. I attempted to get access at another national participating YMCA in Virginia on 07/03/2022, the original date I posted this review. I was denied entry as brandywine had not entered membership info into the program. Did you recently reactivate this program yesterday? Do we need to re register at the Y to gain access? Are you accepting other people into your Y from the national program but withholding our info so we can't go to other Ys? Thanks

Overall I enjoy working out at the YMCA. Equiptment is up to date, and the gym is beautiful. Member services employees are extremely friendly and helpful from my experience.My issue is with the communication with the Exercise Director Dott or Dotty. She does not answer her work phone, acknowledge VM's, or read emails. As the director of such position you should at minimum call your members back. Its been 3 weeks with no reply. Im filing a complaint.

I'm giving the YMCA overall a 1 star simply due to the fact that their child care age is six months. With postpartum depression being at an all-time high, I expected more from the YMCA. With you all being a non-profit organization, all of you should go back to the drawing board and make changes expeditiously.

My daughter just loved camp Koda! She had a great time right from the start, and felt very comfortable. I didn’t interact with the staff a lot due to just drop off and pickup but each person seemed very nice and my daughter was happy being with them. My only complaint is that I wish i signed her up sooner to get in a few more weeks this summer!

My son is so over-the-moon happy with Brandywine Y's Camp Quoowant this year. Last year he went to a different camp and he always said how bored he was and he was never tired when he came home. That to me was a sign that he really wasn't that active at camp. This year, however, he's always talking about what a great day he had at camp and the things he did during the day and he's exhausted and filthy when he comes home. That is a sign that he's romping in the woods, playing hard, and doing all the things I remember doing at camp when I was young. And, he's excited to go back every morning! That's a huge win for this mama! We will definitely continue with Camp Quoowant next summer!
