What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for this facility are highly polarized. Positive feedback highlights a 'very nice facility' with ample workout machines, considered 'worth the cost' by some, with one user enjoying the social atmosphere and swimming experience. However, a significant portion of reviews are strongly negative, criticizing 'incredibly rude' staff and 'horrible customer service,' with one family feeling targeted. Other common complaints include the facility being a 'total dump' with frequently 'broken or closed' amenities, and a notable issue with a large spider web at the main entrance. Furthermore, serious financial grievances are reported, including unauthorized charges, refusal of refunds after cancellation, and an unhelpful director. Consequently, while some recommend the facility, many strongly advise against it, calling it a 'rip-off' and a 'waste of time and money.'

Came here to go swimming and work out. All was well met some really cute guys in the men’s locker room and got there phone number. Got to work out with the hot twinks as well! Swimming shirtless with the cute guys is fun. There was a big spider web 🕸️ outside the main entrance which was a little scary and I was afraid I was gonna walk into it and the spider would consume me! This really nice cop helped me by taking me into another entrance away from the big ass web ! How can u except anyone to wanna visit if there is a massive spider web hanging in the main door way! Take it down please!

If I could give this place half a star I would. They are nothing but rude to me and my family. Other families get left alone but for some reason me and my family get targeted. I highly recommend NOT coming to this place. After a long week at work and wanting to relax in peace doesn't exist here. They will find a way to disrupt your peace.

This is a very nice facility compared to other Y’s I’ve been to across the southeast. Staff are friendly enough but I don’t go to the gym to interact with staff so I couldn’t really care less. I’ve only used the weightlifting area and can say that there are plenty of machines to choose from. In fact, they could probably stand to lose a few machines and replace them with benches, squat racks, and other free weights. All in all, and great facility and worth the cost.

This place is a total dump! Something always broken or closed. THE STAFF is INCREDIBLY RUDE and we were charged $76.50 for only 2 weeks and then charged again in 2 weeks and we cancelled and they charged my card a third time and refused to refund it! Jeannette is a horrible director who does not care about the customer, only their pockets!!! TRY another gym or location! Total rip-off and a waste of time and money! Horrible customer service and experience!!!!
