Family-focused rec center including a pool and a gym as well as kids' programs.
The Fitton Family YMCA features two main pools. The Lap Pool is typically maintained at a temperature between 80-82 degrees Fahrenheit (26.7-27.8°C). The Warm Water Pool is usually kept at a higher temperature, ranging from 88-90 degrees Fahrenheit (31.1-32.2°C).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The YMCA facility is generally highly recommended as a welcoming and family-friendly place with a variety of amenities, including a well-equipped gym, stretching room, large indoor pool, basketball, exercise equipment, gymnastics, and a smaller heated pool with a water slide. Many families appreciate the diverse programs such as swim lessons, group exercise, childcare, and sports, finding the experience enjoyable and worthwhile despite potentially higher prices. A standout positive is the specialized private swim instruction, particularly with Chris Robinson, who is highly praised for her expertise and patience in working with children with special needs, leading to significant progress in swimming and sensory regulation. However, there was a negative experience reported regarding family swim, citing unhelpful and unprofessional swim staff and issues with the pool not being open as scheduled.

We are members from out of state and stopped in for a quick workout. Everyone was very welcoming. The gym was nice. They have a stretching room that was much appreciated. Large indoor pool. Would definitely recommend for any locals or members visiting from out of state.
We've been bringing our Dtr Andie here for weekly private lessons with Chris Robinson since early 2021. Andie is Autistic & has a rare genetic disorder known as Trisomy 20. In addition to that, she is "semi"non-verbal, has sensory processing disorder, developmentally delayed & has explosive behaviors. Chris is retired from the Department of disabilities. She is experienced with Andies's disorders and she knows how to work with them. It's been a slow progression but it's definitely nothing that we were even sure would happen. We brought our daughter her for "aquatic therapy" to aid with sensory regulation. What Chris has done for her in the past 3 yrs was more than we ever truly expected. We have witnessed our 7 yr old developmentally delayed Dtr doggie paddle, swim under water and is currently learning to tread water with "long arms"! Even more than just the physical capabilities & Sensory regulation... she's gained a routine that was initiated from the beginning & has been carried out consistently. Chris recognized the importance as this was one of Andies needs. We DON'T put limitations on our childs abilities but often find ourselves surprised by them. Chris has served as a very positive part of Andies' team & I couldn't be happier with the services that she provides @ the YMCA. If you have a child with special needs, you won't find a better instructor than the one we've found here💙
Swim staff suck. Took daughter for family swim. Family pool not open when told. Waited 30 min next to door with blonde female lifeguard standing next to male lifeguard flirting. Looked our way 4 or 5 times. When asked staff older women snapped at me and said I had to tell someone to open pool. It's not my job to tell you how or when to do your job. Don't count on Family swim .
The YMCA Fitton is a safe and fantastic place for families. From the pool, to group exercise, to Childcare, and Sports our family LOVES the Y. Our family has been going since the kids were babies, attending all the programs. I highly recommend!
My kids take swim lessons at this location and the staff is always very nice. We enjoy coming here. They have basketball, exercise equipment, gymnastics and many other activities. They also have a water slide for the smaller heated pool. The price is higher than most, but it's worth the extra money in my opinion.
