Harriet & Joe Foster Ymca-Ecp

Love this YMCA branch—it's become our go-to spot in the Garden Oaks/Heights area! The facility is super clean and well-maintained: nice saltwater outdoor pool (great for laps or family swims), solid weight/cardio area, basketball courts that are always in use, and plenty of group classes (Zumba, cycling, etc.) with energetic instructors. Child watch is a lifesaver for parents wanting to work out worry-free, and the locker rooms/showers are spacious and tidy. Great community feel—friendly staff, diverse crowd, and convenient location near parks and neighborhoods. We use it for family activities, fitness, and even kids' programs. Affordable membership with city-wide access to other Ys too. Highly recommend—whether you're new to fitness or a regular, this place delivers!

👍: Clean, salt pool, everything is in pretty good shape, nice open shower area in the lockers. Kids indoor facilities look great. 🤨: Small facilities and lot. Showers lose pressure every time someone on other side of wall moves faucet. No real kids swim facilities, just part of the pool. Parking could use more shade.

The afternoon's playing soccer at this facility is always nice! Polite staff, a good view, and a nice sunset are some of the nice things you'll enjoy!

Our family has been a member all summer and we enjoyed the pool, and our son the open space to play soccer outside. Nice basketball courts and weight room and cardio areas.

I love the group exercise classes, especially cardio dance and Zumba, and my sons enjoy using the weightlifting equipment and playing basketball at the YMCA. We get all of this for a family membership that is much more reasonably priced than any other gym I've encountered.
