Member Testimonials
We enjoy the welcoming atmosphere, the variety of classes, the instructors, and our fellow members.
But one comment: we understand that recent changes resulted in lower compensation for instructors and notice that at least one popular instructor has resigned. Please reconsider any policy that has such an effect. And we also understood that the recent notice about an increase in dues was partly related to compensating staff adequately.
I really like the family pool. I have COPD and it is difficult for me to work out in the gym.
Friendly staff, facilities are well maintained, a wide range of activities and programs.
A good value for the money. No semi-pro gym people grinding through their workouts. Just normal folks that are kind and polite. Lots of activities and facilities that are readily maintained, and always clean and organized. Also, no distasteful music being played during my workout. Having been a member of more than six gyms in my life, this is by far the best. Simply but efficient.
The people I’ve met & friendships that followed, the always pleasant & supportive staff & the pool offerings
We DO need more water classes though

I am so impressed with the Y. Everyone is so friendly, the place is very clean and organized and the activities/classes are plentiful.
The diversity of physical activities that can be performed at the Y and the ample time availability for each one of them
Great space and the staff were super friendly!
I just rejoined the Y recently and I went yesterday to make an appointment to get involved with FitQuest. I was informed immediately what I needed to do, made an appointment, and was able to meet with a trainer (Chris). Chris met me on the dot at 4 pm and spent @ an hour getting me reaquainted with the program and reacessing me for a strengh training program. I have another appointment for more instruction on Monday. Previously I was a member at this same Y and mostly did swimming classes. I was always impressed with the swimming program and expect to try out some of the classes again.
The front desk people are so welcoming and know my name. The members in the classes are so nice and I love the instructors. I love coming to the Y!
Staff couldn'tbe nicer and the facilities are great.
Excellent facility, friendly professional associates
Love the clean large pool and the variety of swim fitness classes offered. Great instructors, too!
Friendly staff who enrolled in us. The Teen Quest Trainers made my daughter excited about working out. Other gyms made her feel intimidated.
Great premises and amazing trainers!
I enjoy the variety of activities and the facility is always clean and also very spacious.
Easy to jump in and get started.
Shields up. Not too many people (on a mid-day Monday)
I'm coming back vaccinated and boosted after a year and a half off due to COVID. The indolence cost me three heart stents. My session went very well today. I had to drop back a lot from 1.5 years ago (doh!) but I felt really good afterwards.
Close proximity. Cleanliness and good customer service.
The staff is extra friendly and helpful. The building's clean and well kept. There are a variety of fitness classes to choose from, and it's possible to participate at different levels. I find the Y a home away from home!
Friendly staff
