Gym and swimming pool offering fitness classes, a basketball court and summertime camp.
The Lampeter-Strasburg YMCA typically maintains its indoor lap pool at approximately 80-82°F (26.7-27.8°C) and its indoor warm water/program pool at a warmer 88-90°F (31.1-32.2°C).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for the facility are mixed. Positive aspects include a generally clean environment, readily available gym equipment (though the free weight area can be small and crowded at times), and a good value day pass option for families to enjoy the outdoor pool. Some staff are described as kind. However, there are significant criticisms, particularly concerning the pool: a lack of open/family lanes for non-lap swimmers, issues with lap swim lane availability conflicting with the online schedule, unexpected closures, and a perceived lack of schedule enforcement by lifeguards. Additionally, some users report rude staff and poor service, while others note that if only using the gym, cheaper alternatives like Planet Fitness exist.
Reviews
They don't offer any open/family lanes/times for people who don't want to lap swim but still want to exercise in the pool. This facility is even more prejudiced against non-lap swimmers than the city center one. Why bother joining if you just want to use the gym? Planet Fitness is much cheaper. It used to be much better and much more open to people using the pool for other types of exercise.
Pool - on a good day this is a wonderful experience for my husband to go swim laps. On a bad day, the lanes are taken even though the website says they are available. Example - today senior splash was supposed to have ended but one lane was taken by some from this group. "Life guards do not do anything to enforce the schedule or monitor the situation of lanes being available for lap swimming" There have been times when the pool has been closed unexpectedly with no notification. There have been times the online schedule says one thing and another is true once at the Y. Facility is beautiful but definitely needs work on organization of schedule and enforcement of it.
In my opinion, the service is horrible. They often make up things that have never happened. The employees are sometimes very rude as well.
Great place to come whether you are a member or not. They have day passes for the outdoor pool. I bring my family and we pack lunch and enjoy the pool for the day. Reasonably priced, and clean facilities. Kind staff. Overall a great place!
It's a good gym. Not too crowded. Equipment is always available. The free weight area can get a bit full and is a little small, but I can always get on my full workout. Locker rooms and the gym are always clean.
