Managed well with excellent staff, well maintained equipment and family oriented programs. Having utilized many exercise facilities over seven(7) decades, Chatham Park YMCA is the best at meeting the exercise needs of family.
Great new facility. Friendly staff. Awesome vibe in the building.
They seem to really care about the needs of their members. I am I hopes that the lap pool will stay open as it is the only method of working out for some of our members.
Live the friendly staff clean accessible facility, we Love the pool. The only thing I would suggest is I really wish the gym was open a little earlier on Sundays.
Well working exercise equipment, a clean environment, friendly staff, great swim lesson experiences for our kids, & we’ve spent many hours at the pool this summer!

The variety of exercise equipment and classes
The Chatham Park YMCA is one of the best facilities I have ever used! The staff is so friendly, everyone know your name, and it is a very enjoyable atmosphere. I always look forward to my workouts there every day.

One suggestion:
Please do not lock us “in” the bathrooms and universal bathrooms.
We took an aqua class on Friday and we all went into the unlocked bathrooms, took our showers, and about six of us were unable to go out the way we came in! They locked the doors when we were in there!
One woman was elderly and had trouble walking all around outside to her car that was parked in back.
We got locked in when our cars were right in back by pool. We weren’t able to leave the way we came
My kids had a blast. It seemed like they had plenty of activities to do. At the end of the day, the kids could choose an activity based on their interests. The counselors seem really good.
That the pool has 8 full swim lanes with lane lines in early in the morning for serious lap swimmer
It's clean, offers so many programs, people are so friendly, I just love it!
Friendly people, good group classes and the beautiful new facility.
100% enjoyed the pool at Chatham Y! The water slide was so much fun and it was worth it traveling from Durham to enjoy the new amenities. Thanks!
The counselors BY FAR make the camp experience the best! We go to numerous summer camps ranging in different prices and the counselors at the Y blow everyone else out the water. Their genuine enthusiasm and care and energy is off the chain! I totally trust the care of my kiddos to the Y. Thanks so much for making the summer a positive and safe environment. We will continue to patronize this camp every summer!
The director and camp counselors are amazing and have had such a positive impact on my kids!
The counselors are amazing and have wonderful attitudes. They seem happy to be there and my kids come home very excited about the day they had.
My 11 year old twins really enjoyed the new Chatham Park YMCA pool and their interactions with the counselors. They also liked meeting new friends and seeing old ones from previous years.
I like how organized everything is. I really appreciate all of the communications that go out regarding camp - the emails before each week and before the beginning of the month when payments will hit. I also appreciate the communication when emergencies happen - like if camp will need to be closed for any reason.
My child has enjoyed swimming 4 days a week this year.
It is everything a person could ask for in a fitness facility. To me, it is visionary and intended to meet the needs of a rapidly growing community into the future. It is a great place to workout, socialize, learn new skills, and play with my grandchildren.
We love our camp and after school programs!
Nice people and setting.

I like the laid-back atmosphere. There are not a lot of people being really loud and showing off and making other people feel uncomfortable for working out. I like that there’s a swimming pool. The staff are very friendly.
