It’s a spacious, clean and well outfitted facility, with a great deal to offer persons of any age, but is excellent for a person in their 60s.
Great place!! Very welcoming
Community, friendship, exercise, great staff etc
A lot of equipment, very pleasant people and surroundings, great location for me.
I love the pickleball at the Y. My husband and I have made lots of new friends. We play as many mornings as we can.
I would recommend the Y because everyone was very welcoming and helped get me a temporary membership while I am currently in Massachusetts. I felt very accepted at the Y and people even stopped to say hello on my second day as they recognized me, it made me feel like I at a place that had a sense of belonging.
Wonderful facility with all the equipment I need. Staff is great and always available to answer a question.

I have only attended one class But enjoyed it very much . We missed last class and will miss next due to the weather being to cold for our little guy.
The building is beautiful with adequate parking. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The fitness area is clean and has a lot of machines. (The TVs on the treadmills sometimes don't work though!) The pool is not that clean, and is very warm.

Wonderful facility & wonderful staff!
The only negative is the Fit for Life class is too large…66 people last week!…way too many!
It’s a beautiful new facility with great instructors & management.
Both the "receptionist" and the man upstairs at the E-gym desk "help-desk" were so helpful, genuine, and friendly to us. And they spoke from a place of knowledge about the Y.
I’d highly recommend the Cape Ann YMCA because it manages to combine a welcoming community atmosphere with high-end fitness resources that cater to every level. The group class instructors make my fitness journey possible. they bring an incredible amount of energy and expertise, ensuring that whether I'm in a spin class or a strength training class, I feel supported and technically sound. Additionally, their EGYM system is a total game-changer for anyone looking for a structured, data-driven workout. It uses smart equipment that automatically adjusts to your personalized settings and tracks your progress in real-time, taking all the guesswork out of strength training. It’s rare to find a gym that balances such high-quality professional instruction with cutting-edge technology, making it the perfect place to stay consistent and see real results.
Nice, modern facility with lots of equipment and very good classes available.
The variety of programs. The facility itself. The new, unique, E-circuit.

The dedication of staff. Encouraging, safe environment.
