Kraft Family YMCA is a nice facility. The staff do help to make it so. It is conveniently located for me and those in southern Cary, eastern Apex, northern Holly Springs and Fuquay and western Raleigh and Garner. I have recommended to many friends and neighbors, many of which now have membership.
There is one drawback. The facility is a bit on the small side for its volume of membership; using another facility is a bit inconvenient, given what i stated previously.
Another, on the positive side is the staff. Very cordial, personable and take the extra effort to make its patrons feel welcomed.
Back to the lack of facility space for current membership. Actually, there is plenty of real estate to develop. There are two reasonably sized parcels around the swimming pool area. These spaces would provide additional parking as well as enclosed spaces having locker rooms/showers/toilets etc.. There is also the parcel acquired by Kraft at the top of the hill on the west/northwest side, just off Holly Springs rd. This could easily be developed for multi-use areas. Outdoor Basketball, Pickleball, Tennis, Locker Rooms fitted as previously noted and more parking.
Now, one might ask why all the additional parking. Quite simply put; with the expantion of the facilities, not to mention the new home development going on in the area, membership too will grow. The more care and ambience provided to its members and the facility, the more membership you will pick up.
The facility is well maintained and the staff is always friendly. I enjoy the offering of classes, but would love more gentle yoga classes in the evening (5:30 or 6:30 classes).
Community aspect. Feels like a family.
For me personally:
accessibility

The staff welcomes you consistently, and has been accommodating and willing to help. The facility is clean, and the equipment is up to date and functional. The basics for a facility to train in is met. Keep up the good work.
The front desk staff is always nice and helpful, not to mention patient when my teens lose their membership card.

I love the variety of classes and programs they have. The facility is always clean. Staff is always helpful.
Amazing staff who recognize us and provide a fun and safe environment for my son. My kid loves going to YMCA aftercare and gets upset if I pick him up early since he’s having such a good time.

We love the community feel and the way in which we are greeted warmly every single day. Everyone is so very helpful and a special shoutout to our director, Helen, who does all she can to make our Y an extra special place for each and every member!
