This place should have scads of glowing reviews! My family loves this place for many good reasons. It is currently in the middle of a major renovation which is why it gets 4 stars for now rather than 5.
Where to start? This is a full service gym and community center with all kinds of programs to serve individuals and families. If you have kids you MUST check it out. The staff here are super friendly and helpful. The facility is modern and clean, even before the updating.
My experience of Y's in other parts of the country were not nearly so favorable. The Harris Branch completely turned around my perception. My daughter attends their child watch program twice a week and is always really excited to go. They have a robust dance program as well which my daughter also attends and loves.
The pools are terrific: they have a number of indoor and outdoor pools for doing laps and others for families and little kiddies with fountains to play in.
I am not sure how it rates price-wise against local gyms because you get a lot for your money beyond just a place to work out. If you are a single person who just wants to lift weights/ do cardio you might be able to find something cheaper. If you have a family or are looking for a social component as well as a gym, this place can't be beat.
