Member Testimonials
I like to swim laps in the pool and talk to old friends. I also work out in the fitness area and ride the bikes. Nice environment and clean facilities. Could use larger kick boards for adults, I remember at the old ymca they had a lot of the bigger kick boards for swimming.
Water activities for exercise and family
It's a nice clean facility with lots of activities available.
great facility and welcoming to all
The friendly atmosphere and the cleanliness
Clean facilities, friendly people, lots of weights and machines that work, pool, ample parking. All good in my book.
The warm whirlpool jet massage helps to rehab my back spasms. This is the main reason I benefit from the Y membership. Oh, and Ralph is a good guy too!
I really enjoy the DOW Bay Area Family YMCA facility. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The equipment is maintained. The patrons are positive people.
We LOVE the YMCA! Our family enjoys swimming and the indoor track. Our 10 year old son Mason, had a great time doing personal training with Jake and highly recommend that program to everyone. It helped keep him motivated in the off season from football.
I like the hours, variety and quality of equipment, and I look forward to taking some classes. Facility is clean and well maintained — thank you!

The pool hot tub n sauna n steam room
Great facility with state-of-the-art equipment. Friendly staff.
Caroline Willard is the most professional personal trainer I have ever worked with. Caroline is a great listener and has developed a training plan for me based on my needs and goals. She has a written plan for each training session but makes adjustments as necessary. With Caroline's assistance, I feel better than I have in many years.
Everything.. the Staff .. the Steam room is amazing therapy.. lots of awesome programs.. I’m glad there is a heavy bag available
Friendly staff and great equipment
The staff of the Y and the facilities of the Y have always been a great place since we started coming back in April. The only reason it wasn't a 10 is that I might not recommend it to everyone as the cost of entry could be considered a little high, but the services that are provided once you are a member easily match and make it a great deal overall! Thank you for all of the hard work you do for our community!
It always a blast but I think on fridays u should be open later
Wonderful facility, welcoming staff!
The kindness!! People are friendly. The entire place is extremely clean!! The pool area is my favorite place and the main reason I go to the Y. It's also a social time as I meet new people every time I am there. I also like how staff will help me get started on what machines I can use safely and in the pool how Rob encourages me to start slowly and work back to where I was in the past.
Yes, I love the Y.
Excellent facility to get an old body back in shape or at least maintain what is left. Appreciate when I can walk out with what I came in with. Nice place also for socializing and even get STEAMED UP about after drowning my thoughts in the swirling pool water. And what a nice place to track walk. Almost feel like I am going in circles!!!! And good inexpensive parking facility even though no valet. All in all...Thumbs Up.
Facilities are fantastic. None like the Y. Unbelievable everything the Y offers at a great price.
Great staff. Great services. Very welcoming and friendly.
I come to the Y because of the sauna, for how clean the dressing room/ showers are kept. Great free classes are always offered and lots of treadmills.
Beautiful facility and nice staff
Great equipment, friendly staff, clean, good hours and lots of activities. Love the jokes on the board - keeps staff engaged with customers.
