Member Testimonials
The facilities are very nice and well maintained.
The front desk staff are very kind and helpful.
The vibe feels quite inclusive and accepting.
Youth sports were very foundational for our children when they were of age to participate. The emphasis on becoming a good human being (not just "being the best") was an important part of our preference for YMCA sports over, for instance, NCFC or similar.
Great selection of classes. Very friendly people
Please add more classes for your members with developmental disabilities. There are only 2 adaptive classes offered per week for the entire triangle area. Thank you.
The facilities are clean, the staff is friendly, there are a number of sporting facilities and classes offered. It feels like a community, not just a fitness center.
Friendly, welcoming, and helpful staff at the front desk

I really enjoy my time at Finley. I love the indoor pool so much and I plan on using the outdoor pool this summer, I do like that the outdoor pool is open year round. I like that reservations are not needed. It’s nice to have towels available too. The coffee area is nice and provides an area to socialize.
The gym has a wide variety of equipment and the staff is friendly and helpful.
The locker room and showers are clean and I like the sauna and steam room also.
I attended the Freedom Festival last summer and it was a lot of fun, I plan to go again this year. 🎆
Great water aerobics classes! Easy to use app for checking class schedules and signing up.
The staff
Very nice womens locker room. Easy to take a shower and get ready. Cannot wait to try the 10-lane indoor lap pool. Sauna was hot. I wish the Southeast YMCA would up the game by adding more benches so more women has space to put their bags, etc while trying to get ready for work. Thank you.
Variety of classes, excellent equipment, friendly staff, great facility overall

Location
I like the group fitness classes and I like meeting friends to lift weights. Check in is easy using my phone and the front desk ladies are very nice and friendly. I appreciate the organization of work out supplies (mats, weights, balls, etc) in the big group fitness room and that there are more weights in the room now than years ago.
Everyone is knowledgeable and friendly! I love the pools and the aquarium class offerings.
Great classes, wonderful staff. The Y is a very welcoming place and an integral part of the community. I love the Finley Y!

My 28 year old son, Richard, has autism and attended Camp GRACE for many years. He loves exercising at the Y and especially loves summer when the outdoor pool is open! The check in staff and lifeguards are always so kind to him. Many even greet him by name. I enjoy chauffeuring him to the pool and parking myself under the shade canvass with a good book…and I enjoy treading water during adult swim. The Y pool is simply the best way to spend a hot summer afternoon!
