I like the staff, they are all kind and friendly. I would like to give a shot out to Karen my water aerobics teacher. She keeps the class fun and entertaining while exercising and time flies by fast.
The staff are all friendly and helpful. The trainers are very knowledgeable about the exercise equipment and great at showing people how to use the different pieces.
Good environment
It is always clean and well maintained. The staff is always friendly and pleasant. You feel welcomed!
The Y is such a great resource for our community for the promotion of health and wellness!
What I like most about my experience at the Dow Bay Area Family YMCA is the welcoming and community-focused environment. It feels like a place where people of all ages and fitness levels are supported and encouraged, which makes it easy to stay motivated and consistent.
I also appreciate the variety of programs and equipment available. Whether it’s group fitness classes, wellness programs, or just access to a clean and well-maintained facility, there’s always something that fits my needs and keeps things interesting.
Another highlight is the friendly and helpful staff. They make a big difference by creating a positive atmosphere and being available whenever I need guidance or assistance.
Overall, the YMCA stands out not just as a gym, but as a community space that promotes health, connection, and personal growth.
I like everything. It's a great place!
Lots of good equipment, classes, helpful staff,and I love seeing the day care kids in the building.
Convenient hours
Very spacious and wonderful layout! Could have a little more with regard to cleaning stations for the weightlifting area but otherwise very pleased so far!
The available equipment to get a full body workout is fantastic. Open hours are very accommodating. Appreciate the cleanliness of everything. Only complaint is about people that sit on equipment with their phones. May be interval training but unfair to others that want to use the equipment.
Very friendly and very clean with lots of programs
the staff and building.

It’s a great place to workout for everything!
My family and I just recently moved into the area and it’s our first time ever enrolling into a YMCA facility. On our first visit, the front desk receptionist helped us get checked in, photos taken, familiar with rules and expectations, and took us on a personal tour around the facility. We felt so welcomed and appreciated her patience and assistance. Our experience with our YMCA has been friendly, welcoming and enjoyable. We appreciate the kindness of the staffs and the cleanliness of the facility as well!
It's a great place to workout. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The members are friendly and helpful. It's a great place to workout.
The abundance of equipment and free weights. Also the walking track and the great atmosphere.
Everything!
Wendy Plewa and her wonderful staff at the childcare center are the best! I can’t say enough about the great job they do every day. Also- the facilities are beautiful and always so clean- and we appreciate all the programs the Y offers!
The Y is well run with giving younger individuals a chance to learn at various job. It is kept very clean both inside and outside with maintenance needs taken care of. I like all the programs for youngsters and they get a balanced meal while at the Y. It also seems to be a great place for older individuals to meet as they help keep their muscles toned.
