Member Testimonials
Friendly staff, good exercise classes and I enjoy the other members.
My kids had an amazing time at Camp on the Lake! We love how well-organized the camp is and how enthusiastic the counselors are! The outdoor water and land activities kept my children engaged, confident, and excited to go back every single day. Thank you guys for creating such a fun, safe, and dynamic enviro.
As a first-time parent here, my only suggestion would be to consider creating a private parents' group or photo platform (like a private app or group) to share daily photos with us. Since this is our first year, I haven't seen any photos of them by the lake. I know some camp photos are posted on Instagram, but as a parent, I'm uncomfortable with my children's photos being shared on public social media. A private channel for photo updates would be greatly appreciated!
Close to home, lots of equipment for working out, always see staff cleaning & lots of activities & programs we can participate in.
There is a positive and friendly vibe. It is great to see so many generations enjoying a variety of activities. It is also a bargain.
Friendly
Good family environment. Love the classes.
Great!
The Richardson YMCA is a good, healthy, and economical location for all types of exercise and group sport activities. It is available to people in age brackets from newborn to advanced age from single people on up to full family groups. The facility is vey safe and very clean at all times.
Family vibes
Fun activities and happy memories!
Gavin has been a fantastic swim instructor for my son Luke. This is the first year my son has been willing to do swim lessons (he’s newly 4) and Gavin did great with him. I thought it would be a fight every day but after the first day he has looked forward to going. Gavin did a great job of subtly getting his head more and more wet and Luke finally put his head in the water without freaking out about it! Can’t say enough good things about Gavin.
The instructor was very kind and patient. She took her time with my child and always appeared to be calm and in control.
The staff and others are very friendly and helpful
Great instructors and lots of available times to choose from. The instructors challenge the kids without being too forceful. I also like that lessons are for two weeks in a row.
Our son's teacher, Janie, was great. He loved her and by the end of lessons with her he was able to swim independently for short distances.
Great instructor. My daughter was comfortable and excited for each lesson. I was even able to workout during her sessions.
My kid had the very best time.
Great! Thanks
Nice staff and plenty of workout machines.
I love the water aerobics class
Great instructors and convenient location
Good place to make new friends. Staff very friendly and helpful. Samantha does good job running the Y. I enjoy the special programs. Hi
It’s a great location and the staff is friendly and nice. My only complaint is that you use Fabuloso cleaning solution for floors and I’m allergic to it so the smell in back near restrooms is unbearable. Thankfully I didn’t smell it in the equipment area in the front. PLEASE dilute it or use something else.
The staff at Richardson Y always so helpful and supportive.
It is always clean
Good clean well maintained excellent knowledgeable staff lots of activities.
I love that my child is getting tons of outdoor time and there are a wide variety of activities. Camp on the Lake is my daughter’s favorite camp so far this summer!
We love that my child comes home everyday telling us about a new adventure. Everything from sailing to archery to swimming.
The staff are professional, respectful, and always courteous and friendly.

Kids enjoy playing sports and they are located close by.
