Great YMCA, very big with multiple pools. Kids are in a homeschool swim team and the instructors/facilities are great. We have not used other aspects of the facilities, but seems like an overall great Y.

*** First: if you lose something in the locker room, it will be gone forever, either thrown out or taken by the housekeeping staff. *** The facilities themselves are OK, but the YMCA seems more concerned these days extracting more and more money from its membership base than providing value for the money. The biggest example: there are two tiers for the locker room: basic and the paid upgrade ($15 extra). I get that gym locker rooms are gross as a rule, but the basic locker room is usually pretty nasty. There’s usually trash left behind by one of the kids swim teams. The kids also love to just leave the showers running as well wasting water. Maybe you’re cool with that, but I’m not. Perhaps the point of keeping the locker room deliberately dirty is to make you purchase the upgrade? Check out the photos and judge for yourself.

We joined the Y so my autistic son has some activities to do during the winter months. I love the water park, it's perfect for all of my kids (ages 12, 10, 3 and 2 months).

Last 10 days that I am trying to call and get information about the birthday parties, they transfer my call to Rachel B but she never called me back. So it’s totally unacceptable.

Excellent swim facilities with hot and cold bath, moderate pool temperature, and 24X7 life guard. Cheap extra swimming lessons. And membership starts at only $40 per month.
