Great morning weekday staff. They know you by name and encourage you whether you’re swimming or working out in the gym. Pros: Free gated parking downtown and opens at 5 a.m. during the week. Clean, complete gym including the locker rooms. Zero-entry pool, sauna, whirlpool, lap pool, and steam room. Spin classes, yoga classes, free weights, water aerobics, book clubs, soccer field, basketball court, and cooking classes. Cons: I wish it were open later Mid day the pool closes from 1 p.m. - 4 p.m. You can’t rent the lockers monthly or weekly. When it storms, the pool closes. Honestly, these are minor things. I love this gym.

Staff was helpful! Grateful to be able to work out in a full gym while traveling. Nicer equipment than my local ymcas with a rep counter, nice. I liked idea that there is a place to plug in your phone by the towels within an arm or twos length so safe. Wish third floor windows had shades, very warm in sun on climber. Gym is cooler inside than the premium hotel I am staying at nearby. Friendly staff and ac makes it. Internet is very good and fast as well here. Thank you

Visited the facility on a day pass ($15) and the staff was fantastic. Unique set up is a welcoming mix of modern and historic (building used to be a theater). Airy and open with lots of natural light adding to the feeling of cleanliness. Machines and equipment was well appointed and plentiful for my early afternoon workout, but I can't speak to the "busy" hours of operation. Locker room was smallish, and I didn't get an opportunity to sample the sauna or steam room as they close daily from 1 to 4, but I will definitely return the next time I'm in town. Great gym!

Great place. The staff are always helpful. The facility is clean and accessible. They have a ton of carido equipment and there always seems to be machinces available. If you are lifting, it might not be so great. The free weight section, in my experience, is always full with guys wearing three pairs of sweats and a tank top, just sitting on the benches and texting for hours. Mind boggling. Overall this place is great. Hot tub and lap pool as well.

I toured the Kirk Family YMCA yesterday and walked away so impressed. The facility itself is huge. It feels more like a full wellness center than just a gym. There’s a ton of equipment, so it doesn’t feel cramped or crowded, and everything I saw looked well-maintained. The pool area and the women’s locker room were both really nice and noticeably clean, which always says a lot about how a facility is managed. One feature I really liked was the indoor walking track. Massive windows surround it, so you get a lot of natural light and can look outside while you walk, which makes it feel much more open than a typical indoor track. They also offer classes galore, so there always seems to be something going on for different fitness styles and interests. Another thoughtful touch I noticed was that they have seating areas with charging outlets where people can sit and work or study. It gives the space a more community feel rather than just a place where people rush in, work out, and leave. What really stood out, though, was the tour. Yaya gave it, and she’s an absolute gem. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the entire facility and clearly passionate about everything it offers. Nothing about the tour felt scripted or forced. It felt like she genuinely enjoys showing people around and helping them understand everything the YMCA has available. I’m not a member yet, but after seeing the space and meeting someone like Yaya, I left feeling so positive about the place. It seems like a well-run facility with people who truly care about the community they’re serving.
