Excellent facility and friendly staff

I enjoy water aerobics/dance classes

Great benefits, welcoming community, fun group classes, free swim lessons for littles, and the pool!

Great facility! Friendly staff. Lots of classes and programs for all ages.

The members who attend the Y, are friendly, which is a big deal to me. Mostly, the staff, especially Jeff Hunt and Lauren P, (I can't remember it) are fantastic at helping with the exercise programs. You really feel at home at the Y

The Lynch/van Otterloo YMCA facilities are incredible, and so family-friendly! I love that my kids can have a blast at the kids' club while I get in a much-needed workout, and then afterwards we can go to the open-family gymnastics studio - I honestly didn't know that gym facilities like that were available outside of dedicated gymnastics facilities. As a kid I remember that a summer highlight was visiting a water slide in Maine, so I was amazed to see that the Y simply has one of their own!!

Great aqua aerobics classes

The staff is friendly and the facility is very clean! It's amazing there is a kid zone that is able to watch infants and toddlers for the parents!

size, offering, facility

The kids club is the best thing ever! It’s a total saviour to my sanity and I encourage all my mom and dad friends to get that one hour to workout if you can!
The staff at the kids club are so amazing, so kind, caring and really love the kids. I feel so comfortable and confident leaving them, knowing they are in safe hands.
Thank you to all the staff!

Our child has been at the Y for 2 years. The teachers communicate with us daily through an ap and we get pics of our child frequently. Ian is very comfortable with his classmates and has progressed wonderfully in learning.

My son loves the outdoor activities and skills building at Ranger, and I love that he’s learning so much about taking responsibility for himself- and that he’s active and outside all day.

Cycle program

All the counselors were amazing and supportive both my boys they adore rangers! Can’t wait until next summer!

My child had a great time!

It was a little hard for him to carry his stuff around in his backpack all the time and sometimes there were too many activities, he wanted a little more free time. But overall a great time and we will be back. thanks!

Excellent facility. Clean and friendly staff.

The facility is so clean, and the kids club is a huge bonus! I tell all of my friends it's a game changer! The staff at the kids club are so kind and professional it makes it so easy to drop my son off and have no worries while I'm working out!

Clean, friendly, convienient, has pool

Everyone is so friendly and welcoming.. It’s so clean and well maintained too.

Great staff and facilities

Great classes, the outdoor spinning classes in particular are fantastic. It’s a well maintained facility with very helpful staff.

Our son loved sportsmania camp! He loved it all!!

Good value

Nice people. Nice clean complete facility. Reasonable $$
What’s not to like?

What a gorgeous facility! I mean, my home facility is the Beverly Y, and it's nice, but this one - omg!!! I have only gone to an outdoor class, which was great, but I went for a stroll around the facility and it was modern, clean, huge. And the pool is great! I wish I didn't have to drive 25 minutes to get there - otherwise, I'd be there all the time!

Pros: Lots of exercise classes, great instructors, beautiful facility/pool, plenty of parking,
friendly staff.

Things I would like to see added: I would like to see the Connections group started again.
I would like to see a third Fit for Life class added to the schedule.
I would like the instructors to use background music that isn't so loud.
