Member Testimonials
We participate in ELC, afterschool, and camp. Elc is fantastic, the teachers are caring and engaging, my kids have felt supported and learned so much! They love afterschool. And the first two days of camp have gone quite well.
John and Nerius were great in coordinating the lessons for both of my kids aged 11 and 6, while paying attention to their different needs.
The hours are convenient for working parents. My son had a blast at move, play and explore today with the various activities; swim, archery, sports and playing in a sprinkler.
My grandson has very much enjoyed advanced school age swim this past year. He was already a good swimmer, but the weekly lessons with emphasis on various strokes built his stamina and confidence in the water. Highly recommend.
Lots of different activities and staff that seem to genuinely care about my kids
The kids learn how to swim and enjoy it
Doing the upgrades is nice. Clean. Nice staff.
The Lynch Van Otterloo YMCA is a great resource. It has excellent pool and gym facilities.
We love our Y in Marblehead! It is a place of activity, good health and great snack bar.
The equipment and locker rooms are clean and in excellent condition. Shout out to the staff who are welcoming and create this great fitness and family center.
Indoor and outdoor pool is a big plus. Large clean facility with plenty of access to equipment.
Because. Haha, just kidding.
It's clean, great for kids, the staff really seems to care and take their work seriously.
Great classes for older adults
Beautiful place for families
Good communication and facilities.
Lately construction has been difficult but appreciate the updates.
Thursday Juneteenth was crazy in the pool.
Lifeguard training (2 lanes) aquarobics (e
3 lanes) very busy lap swimming. Plenty of lifeguards not sure why the lifeguard training wasn’t moved outside or that the outside pool lanes weren’t utilized for additional lap lanes.
Friendly And Helpful Employees at the front entranceway and very competent instructors running the group classes. I would highly recommend joining the Y and enjoying the facility and classes to everyone wishing to improve their health.
The LVOO Y in Marblehead is a gem of a facility. It checks almost all of the Y boxes for me. I use the pool. The staff is friendly and super helpful and I love that there is a little cafe there as well as art by local artists on the wall.
My only quibbles are around the women's locker room. I wish the LVOO Y had another Suitmate machine (pulls water out of wet bathing suits). There is only one Suitmate opposite the showers and when there is a water aerobics class, there can be a line to use the machine. Also, people ignore the signs about not using cell phones and tablets in the sauna. I gave up gently and politely telling folks to please not use them. I would get either hateful, irritated stares or some bogus excuse like 'Well, I have to check on my infant son.'
Super place for so many reasons.
I like working out on the machines. I’m a cyclist and use the cycling machine. The few new ones are well made and look good. And the video screen is larger. It doesn’t have a fan but no big deal. But the seat, well for me it hurts. The older version was quite comfortable. This one gave me sores no matter how I position my behind. It may just be me but using it I have to think twice.
The facility is clean, well equipped, and staffed by welcoming people.
It is a nice place to go and it fits my needs sometimes
Good clean facility employing very nice people
It is clean, well staffed with helpful people and the hours are very good.
I really like the pool.
Excellent facilities. Agreeable staff.
Clean facilities with great activities for my child
The people are friendly, especially on the front desk, the facility is clean and
very well equipped.
If there's one problem, it's that some people occupy the machines for far too
long....texting and checking emails. But, they usually allow a work in if asked.
10-15 minutes on a machine is far too long....and poor gym etiquette.
Lots of fun to be had
Great variety of classes very clean and friendly
Many varied classes, clean well cared for spaces. Lots of equipment available. Classes for seniors. Instructors are very good.
It has fitness programs and equipment that makes working out easy and convenient

When you find the right instructor the Y swim program is great!
