Member Testimonials
Very friendly, helpful staff.
I use the weight room, typically three days a week. IMO the Life Fitness machines in Manlius are superior to the Precor machines in Fayetteville.
A suggestion. Music in the weight room is fine, although none would be OK, too. Getting kind of tired of the 70s music that has been playing for months now. Changing styles every few weeks might be an improvement.
Overall, a good experience.
It's a lovely facility with three pools and a range of classes
The people at the desk and the tennis department are incredibly helpful and could not be nicer
It was just what i expected. Greeted, easy ck in and welcoming yoga teacher even though walked in for 1/2 class. No stress. Will go back
Great facilities. Locker room is too cramped
I like that the Y is kept very clean. Many of the instructors are top-notch for the classes I take.
Location, instructors, classes for seniors, clean
Lockerooms.
Variety of classes, affable instructors, strength of community, camaraderie among patrons. Facility could use some renovation (same with Fayetteville), and parking lot is too small, but Manlius is my favorite center!
Everything!
Close to home. Machines I like typically available
So many opportunities for all ages.
Love to see the community get together to exercise, play games, craft, have coffee & conversation....so much to do with nice people.
It’s an all inclusive atmosphere providing young & old opportunities to be healthier. The YMCA Northwest Family facility has so many choices for keeping your body, mind and social skills active and rewarding. A simple smile, thumbs up or hello to others is a habit that is natural. Everyone is precious and important. Maybe it’s someone’s Happy Place!
Friendly and helpful staff!
Clean facility and well maintained swimming pool
Nice gym overall, but the pool has poor upkeep and its not being maintained properly. I avoid this pool and wish I enjoyed using it. The pool bottom is often visibly dirty, water cloudy, etc. You need someone to manage it better.
Family friendly. Great programs. Variety of workout classes. Great place to be!

Northwest Baldwinsville YMCA is beautiful and huge! My son and I were so excited to start his classes there and I was impressed how many different areas there were to explore.
Clean, well run, friendly staff and wide range of activities.

I'm an employee in membership but I have belong to the Y all my life I learned to swim at the YWCA downtown when I was a little girl The Y has always been a part of my life and it's a great place to meet people and make everlasting friends ♥️
Appreciate racket ball and pickle ball
Large space with plenty of good equipment. Like the cycling room and programs. Good staff.
Best place to exercise.
awesome
Having been on a number of safety committees at different companies over the years,slips are a major cause of injuries. Hallways and locker room floors have water on them quite a bit. This can be mostly eliminated by requiring people to dry off in the pool area and shower areas. Also,a few more rugs in the winter time.

Thank you for all you do for us! And for keeping the pool water warm.
