About

Fitness center with a pool, basketball and squash courts, a sauna, and group classes.

The club has an indoor 25-yard lap pool, typically maintained at a temperature of 80-82°F (26.7-27.8°C). Additionally, there is a warm water recreation pool, which is kept at approximately 90°F (32.2°C).

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The facility receives mixed reviews, with many praising its excellent pool, well-maintained exercise equipment, and included classes. Staff are often described as friendly and helpful, and members appreciate the good hours, quick equipment replacement, and provided towels. However, significant concerns are raised about the high membership costs, particularly in relation to the condition of certain areas. Complaints include poor maintenance and cleanliness in locker rooms, bathrooms, and showers (e.g., outdated shower curtains, bad ventilation, and smells), as well as amenities being shut down prematurely before closing. Some users also reported unhelpful staff attitudes and dissatisfaction with the policy requiring membership to join a long waitlist for adult swimming lessons. Overall, there's a strong call for modernization and improved attention to detail in facility upkeep to match the premium pricing.

The pool, though often busy, is one of the best in the area; the staff members have been nothing but kind. But for $153 a month / $240 a couple, I don't know, maybe replace the shower curtains when they start to look like this? Not asking for a complete renovation here, but these little details can make a huge difference. Hoping it gets better.

Excellent facility with great pool, sauna and steam room. Broken equipment is replaced within days. Provided towels are a nice plus. Staff is friendly and helpful. It gets a little crowded in the locker room during peak times but normally it’s pretty sparse. Fellow members are easy going. Even friendly (!). Hours are great. We’re really happy here.

Just signed up and already off to a rough start. I came in 30 minutes before closing to use the hot tub and steam room—well within the hours I’m paying for. Instead, I was met with attitude from both the front desk and the lifeguard, basically telling me the gym was closing as if I shouldn’t be there. To make it worse, by the time I got downstairs, the steam room was already locked. Super inconvenient. Amenities should be available until close, not shut down early. Not impressed with this type of service.

I went to inquire about adult swimming lessons. They mentioned that they have a 1 year long waitlist. However, in order to get on the waitlist, one has to be a member. I'm not paying a membership just to be on a waiting list.

Very expensive at ~270 a month for a couple, and the bathrooms/showers/locker rooms have poor ventilation and smells and are generally in a bad state. For ProClub prices you get 24 hour fitness bathrooms. They really need to modernize the club. Exercise equipment is well maintained and usually not full. Classes are nice and included in the price.
