Member Testimonials
Great people & great facility
Variety
I like how my membership works statewide Bay cities YMCA is beautiful and the best one I’ve been to yet hands-down
Great environment - nice staff - great programs. The indoor track is the best!
Clean, friendly staff who listens to members!
I love that when I enter the facility it always feels as if I’ve traveled out of Bay City. I love the track, the equipment, the people that are there when I visit at 4am are all hard workers and provide a phenomenal atmosphere for working hard, smiles, small talk in between sets. I especially love the steam room,hot tub, sauna and the shower space. I’m super greatful for the 24hr gym for allowing me to get warmed up and perform some workouts before the gym opens. All in all I’m very pleased every day I visit. Thank you
The new equipment and the ease of access to the facility.
Lots to do
Very clean
I love the group exercise classes. You have amazing and dedicated instructors who make the classes challenging but fun (Christine, Jeff, Heidi). I have made many new friends in the classes. Having the 24-7 room has been a blessing too. I use it in the early am before the Y opens and that fits my busy work schedule very well. It allows so much flexibility in our work out schedules. I think you do a great job maintaining the YMCA. It always looks nice. When people complain that an area is closed for refinishing the floors or painting etc., I remind them that we are fortunate that the Y is upgrading and improving things. A shout out to Lindsey in the am at the desk. She is awesome!
I do have 2 concerns. The TRX room is way too small for the number of people who are crammed in that room. The straps are placed too close together and need to be spread out. It is ridiculously hot and stuffy in that room and we need at least 2 or 3 oscillating fans. We also need more dumb bells upstairs (like the ones you added to the aerobic room). There is only 1-2 sets of 10# weights for the entire class and for the floor. We need 10#, 12#,15# dumb bells. Thank you for listening.
Very friendly, very clean and the hours are great
I love the variety/space of not only places but the different equipment in those places to give my workout a change whenever I want. I can take my workout to any level I choose. I also love how clean everything is kept - very important to everyone’s health.

Inviting environment...
I really like utilizing the 24-7 fitness area.
We have only used the facility once but definitely plan to use it more often. My knee issues have hindered us coming more frequently but we definitely plan on coming more often as soon as I heal up. Lots to do there, and I love the walking area!
