Reviewing the summer camp . I stumbled across the Palm Harbor summer camp while Looking for a fun yet affordable option for summer camp. My daughter LOVES going to camp everyday. Staff are nice and the program keeps the kids on go mode. Summer is supposed to be fun so swimming every day and weekly field trips are great. The only thing I would change Is that there would be a more accessible way to get to it instead of it being down a dead end road with only one way in and one way out That’s not a YMCA problem though and does not stop their shine !

Outstanding YMCA location! Plenty of parking; friendly and helpful staff; beautiful location; clean and inviting facility; and lots of classes and activities to choose from. I especially enjoy the water aerobics classes that are held daily, except Sunday. GREAT instructors and FUN activities to keep us moving and grooving. Thank You!!

I am only Reviewing the Gym as that’s all I use. The hours are a little short (specially weekend) for me but it’s not a gym a recreation center so I understand. Staff really cares about the experience, after venting to Johnny about the weights being completely out of order I came back days later to see he had reset them all to the original place allowing a more seem less workout experience. The lady that opened my membership which I’m forgetting her name was always really helpful in ensuring I was always comfortable so it is a great environment to be in. I would give it 5 stars but some equipment should be bolted down to prevent injuries in the future.
