About

Chain, gym and fitness centre featuring a basketball court, an indoor pool and a sauna.

While exact real-time pool temperatures are not always publicly available, New Hope YMCA pools are generally maintained at standard YMCA temperatures. The lap pool is typically kept around 80-82°F (26.7-27.8°C), the warm water/therapy pool at approximately 88-90°F (31.1-32.2°C), and the whirlpool usually ranges from 100-102°F (37.8-38.9°C).

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This facility is generally well-regarded for its convenient New Hope location, family-friendly environment, and diverse offerings, including group exercise classes, an indoor pool, basketball court, and various exercise equipment. The drop-in childcare ('Kids Stuff') and daycare services, which feature swimming and a splash pad, are particularly praised, though some age-based program restrictions are noted. Many appreciate the strong community and social atmosphere. However, there are consistent calls for updates and potential expansion of the facility. A significant concern, expressed in one review, highlights an unsafe environment due to inappropriate behavior from a staff member towards women and a perceived lack of action from management, leading to a strong recommendation against the gym due to its 'awful' culture.

This is a good facility, conveniently located in New Hope. It’s family friendly & has lots of group class options. Love the drop-in childcare “Kids Stuff”. In summer the splash pad is fun. My only wish is that they’d update it - or even make it bigger???

Ideal place for families. They have a large variety of exercise machines and free weights. An indoor pool. An indoor basketball court. It's busy weekday evenings but there are always machines open and access to the free weights.

Unsafe. Guy runs amok and talks awful to many women. Another Guy who waves around his raggedy board member title does nothing. Many other gyms attended. All are way better than this clown show. Nobody I care for will even drive past this place without knowing this. There were 3 staff that were ok. Looks like others have suffered the same thing, based on other reviews. Awful. I have ADHD. I was told to go to Lifetime. I have. A couple other ex New Hope Y members are there too. Hmmm interesting. Be warned. Old, not updated, and inappropriate and not just the aesthetics, the culture and belief system.

My husband and I love the "Y". Our 5:00 a.m. friends are there to greet us, catch up on events, encourage us, and send us on our way for a great start to the day!
