About

Community spot featuring an indoor pool, a hot tub and a relaxed vibe plus weight training and cardio machines.

The aquatic center at Lakeview Fitness usually maintains its lap pool at approximately 82°F (28°C), ideal for swimming and aquatic exercise. Additionally, a warm water therapy pool is typically kept significantly warmer, around 89°F (32°C), for relaxation, rehabilitation, and therapeutic use.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This health complex receives high praise for its recent renovations, overall cleanliness, and fresh air. Members appreciate the affordable monthly rates, the warm and very clean pool, and the 'magical' yoga classes. The staff are described as friendly, and the atmosphere is laid-back. Many commend the cleanliness of the gym and locker rooms, noting them as superior to other facilities. However, a significant point of contention is the sauna, which multiple users report is not hot enough, with complaints to management going unaddressed. This issue has led to membership cancellations. Some reviewers also perceive the facility as not being a community space or kid-friendly, suggesting it caters more to an older demographic.

Sauna is not hot enough. Have talked to the manager multiple times, but no action. Many members share this exact sentiment. Tons of heat is clearly being lost below the door, but nothing is done about it. Apparently maintenance seems to think this gap is required for "proper air flow" ... if they actually knew this much about "proper air flow" then you'd think they would know how to actually make a sauna hot. (that is the purpose of sauna ... right?) The reality is they probably don't know much, and don't care because they don't actually use the sauna. Everyone who uses the sauna wants it hotter, while those who don't use the sauna ... don't want to make it hotter. I wonder why? Why have a sauna if you're not gonna make it hot? This is the reason I ultimately cancelled my membership. Other than this, everything is great. Gym is nice and clean. Staff are friendly. Locker rooms are decent. If sauna was useable, I'd def still be a member.

This is one of the best health clubs I’ve ever been to. They give you free five day membership to try it out. They have cleaner locker rooms that any place I’ve ever been to. They totally put to shame the lifetime fitness brand. Their service manager is also very friendly and they have the best ratesof anyone else in the area.

Not actually a community space. No kids ever. "Well. Technically we have two 'flick and float' events per year!" This is definitely a gym for the assisted living facility next door. It's the kind of place with old men drying their balls by propping up their legs across the whole hall.
