Member Testimonials
The facility is clean and open and the wide variety of equipment fits my needs. I feel welcome. The staff is friendly and helpful.
Lots of classes with excellent instructors. I’m new to this Y, and I’ve had los of questions. The front desk employees have been very helpful. Lori especially was extremely patient when we were setting up the App on my phone. The studio rooms are much larger compared to other gyms. I’m still learning who the Instructors are.
As with all of our wonderful YMCA units and of the entire system, our Chatham YMCA (satellite outreaches) is greatly improved. The melding of staff from individuals to a family is great to witness. It is wonderful to see our community families experiencing how I raised and reflect on how I raised my family at the Triangle YMCAs. Keep up the growth and goal setting improvements.
It’s a very nice facility with a gorgeous pool. I liked that it had a towel service. Also wasn’t too crowded!
The staff provides exceptional customer service from check in to departure. The conversational exchange always adds to the welcome / feel good visit. The facility's lighting, air circulation and cleanness make for a comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable experience. As a new and modern facility, the equipment and routine diversity is exceptional and the exterior building area is impressive and noteworthy.
Everyone knows me and greets me like I’m the most important person there.
Staff is always friendly yet professional. They understand exercise isn’t just about building body strength. It’s about mental strength and building relationships. That recipe is what keeps members returning to build physical strength. I can exercise anywhere. I choose the Chatham Y.
The facility is clean and orderly and everyone makes an effort to maintain it, janitor or CEO.
Location, cleanliness, Thrive classes!!
I love the pool and the new gym equipment
Friendly clean facility
Would be nice to freeze a membership up to 3 months. I haven’t been able to use the facility due to illness
The facility is very nice, high quality, clean and well maintained.
The staff are very friendly, helpful, and professional.
The hours are very convenient.
Where to begin? The facility is terrific, and the membership appear committed to keeping the machines, weights, etc., clean. Membership also appears aware that they don’t own the machine they are on, so you are able to move through your workout without a lot of standing around.
The staff is just terrific: pleasant, professional, and always helpful.
People are friendly and pool is available most times for lap swim
Such a variety of exercise options, something for everyone. Great location, very friendly and courteous staff. So clean, neat.
I just love every day I walk through those doors.
Clean facility, friendly employees.
I would like to see more 45 minute classes.
Access to the pool
Friendly staff
Family access/care, pool and health options. Friendly staff and many things to do.
Wishlist: few heavier dumbbell sets (maybe 110/120s) and some specialty lifting equipment, example hack squat, specialty back machine (Arsenal Row for example) to decompress the leg press and provide additional options.
Overall great job!
High quality facility, friendly staff
It’s a great community, I have developed several friendships, I really like the variety of classes.
Please get more bikes for cycle class, there is plenty of room in the studio for additional bikes.
It’s awesome
Good
The whole atmosphere is absolutely wonderful and the people that work at Chatham Park really elevate the experience. The one thing I would like to ask is to please not use round up because it gets into the ground water and you have a pool and children and this is a toxic cancer-causing chemical, it would be nice to see more natural things used at a family venue.
Swim Aerobics! Wish we were able to have classes year round.
I really enjoy my morning workouts. Plenty of equipment to use, class options and the staff is always amazing.
I typically go to the Durham Lakewood location, and while I love it, I was incredibly impressed by the offerings of the Chatham Park Y. They also have my favorite Precor elliptical, which is definitely a draw, as that's my primary cardio workout.
GYM class
Welcoming vibe - from the front check-in desk and staff to the instructors.
Instructors - especially Amy M (Barre/Lean and Cut) and Eleanor (yoga) - are skilled instructors and delightful.
Disappointment ~ the aqua fitness classes scheduled at 8:00AM are the WORST time for those of us who have developed a long discipline of 8:15 and 9:15 morning classes. Please consider rescheduling aqua fitness to 10:30. There is only one class - one choice - at that time. Another great time would be late afternoon and/or early evening.
Thanks for opportunity to provide feedback. Our family loves the Chatham Y.
Great staff! Great facilities! I love spending time here!
Nice. Clean. Staff friendly. Good equipment.

My kids love to go to the gym and swimming pool.. staff is so friendly and respectful. It's very nice place to cool down for summer. The bathrooms are very clean. Everything is just so organized and beautiful.
