Very well run and clean and so big!

It is bright, spacious, and has two pools for different activities.

good location good parking two very important areas. one front end welcome with John Witt two Keith on the floor, keeping equipment clean and solving any problem that develops.

My 12-year old son is going to the Sports Mania camp 4 years in a row. This year I have booked a trip to a water park for a week instead of one week in the camp. When he found out that, he started screaming, "Mom, I don't want going to the water park, I want to go to the camp! It will be a soccer week, I had been waiting for it for so long time!". Highly recommend to other parents.

I love classes.
Yoga with Stacey.
Jam dance with Liz,and Lisa G
Water exercise w Tanya and Hannah.
Front desk guy John is very nice and friendly.

My son loved this camp and will definitely want to go back next year. He loved the combo of basketball and free swim and always headed home with a smile on his face. He even had friends he already knew in his group! Coach Nick was always available to answer any questions or concerns to ensure each camper has the best possible experience.

Awesome!

Excellent facility conveniently located

Love the Y. There are a great variety of classes. The equipment is kept up. The staff is wonderful. Cute kids abound. What's not to like!

We have been doing the parent-child gymnastics class for a year and we love it. The teachers are so kind and organized, and the routine of the class is predictable and well-structured.

The staff is wonderful, my grandson loves waking up and attending camp every day, he is happy with all the activities that are offered and enjoys the friends he is making.

John had the best time last week! The entire time leading up to camp he was begging not to go. Everyday he came home and said he had fun. The counselors all greeted him and remembered his name. Really impressed with the LVO team so far! Keep up the great work!

My 7 year old loved basketball camp and staff!!!

First and foremost, my (very opinionated) kid loves it! The activities and the structure has been great for him.

As a parent, the biggest takeaway is how organized the program and the counselors are. There is clear leadership from the top that translates down to the staff and gives us a great experience. By the second day the counselors were greeting our son by name as he got out of the car, making him feel so special and excited to be there.

The facility is obviously beautiful and the staff clearly really loves children. We are so happy with our experience so far. Thank you!

We’re loving Children’s Island!!

The sauna doesn’t get very hot.

Nice locker room. Great pool area.

variety of activities, friendly atmosphere, good pricing

The YMCA of the North Shore is a fantastic place to work out!

I have an amazing trainer who has taught me how to push the boundaries of what I thought I could accomplish. At 71 I am in phenomenal shape. My physical well being affects my whole life.

It has been a while since we last visited the man at the front desk gave me new cards and was very nice and answered all my questions.

Great facility
Clean
Love the splash pools for the kids

Program is well run

Great environment!

I'm taking Zumba classes and I feel great 😃

Lynch/van Otterloo's facility and staff are World Class!

I love the second floor facility, particularly its natural light, but also, very importantly, its staff. I have particularly praised Jeff Hunt in the past and am particularly happy to praise a new member of the team, Justin Camerada (I think that's the correct spelling...) who I have recently encountered. They're on the same team in more ways than one.

I might add how delightful it is to be among a wide swath of ages, from high schoolers to old guys like me.

The only glaring deficiency is the lack of table tennis tables. The beauty of "ping pong" is that, as one gains proficiency, it provides increased physicality without the danger of falling, a legitimate fear for we older folks.

Very pleasant atmosphere

It's a great place to go to use the machines and swim in the pool. For my friends with young kids the childcare room looks good - my kids are grown, but I'd use it as long as the adult staff knows what they're doing. I find it's never too crowded during the times I am there. I also like that everyone I interact with at the YMCA is polite and friendly, from staff to members, but they respect my focus too.

Love the variety of classes. All the instructors are fabulous!!
