Franklin YMCA is a pinnacle for the community. The facility is welcoming and well-maintained, and the classic hardwood basketball floors are top-tier — perfect for serious runs or casual pickup games. A great space that brings people together.

It is great to keep physically fit here. I am glad that everything under one roof is one price still and grateful that amount paid is based off ones income. Thank you Jeff Cook and Marcy for keeping this going and you both are great people. There are also some nice kind staff and their friends there as well and have gotten along great with them with some joking around as well. However, there are also some toxic not so great staff and their "friends" there that are prejudiced against older and younger people as well, people with developmental disabilities, Autism, people of different genders sometimes being discriminated against, anyone that is "different" than so called "normal" etc bullying and oppressing these groups of people I feel and making excuses for another's nasty behavior.

Polite and friendly staff, with clean facilities. However, gym and track are way too small, and cramped. Furthermore staff are frequently absent from gym area, leaving it unattended, and filled with patrons who scream, shout, and throw weights. I've filed numerous complaints about both, and nothing haschanged Also, children like to use the men's locker room, and the staff do little to police them up

Everyone is friendly & helpful. I feel comfortable going. Other members are mostly friendly.. Update: I've been going for almost a yr now doing laps & it has been mostly pleasant EXCEPT for the children life guards that are there later in the day. High school kids are not mature enough to take the job seriously. They look at me like I'm disgusting & talk behind my back & I certainly wldnt trust any of them if I had a crisis. I USED to feel comfortable but if I happen to need to go later in the day, it's hard. I'm just trying to get healthy & I can't if I'm too uncomfortable to be there. Its not fair & I've already said something. So I'm paying to get bad mouthed behind my back while I'm trying to get healthy.

I love this place, excellent staff, excellent members, with the ability to have rapport with people, there willing to meet all people at their individual level. An experience you’ll not want to miss, the best workout facility in Venango County.
