Get treated very nice. And it’s clean .
I love the kidzone staff! They do such a good job with my kiddo, they make me feel very comfortable leaving my son, so I can go get some me time and workout. Ms. Rhonda and Ms. Sierra are especially welcoming. If I didn't feel so comfortable with them it would be hard to leave my baby, but I know I can trust them to provide great care.
Lap pool. Would be nice if you could communicate better on the app about it being open on holidays. Yesterday was marked as closed. Also happened on another holiday.

The Visser Y has been a real blessing for me and my health . I have have had health issues that with Kris, my personal trainer, and the pool, I am getting beyond those problems with every session.
Good equipment. Nice staff. Well maintained hot tub
Friendly staff Julie? And Greg introduced us to the facility.
Kind and caring staff. Leg press is able to reach higher levels.
Visser is a little more welcoming than any of the other Y’s.
It had a real sense of community and inclusion. Ever one is happy to be there. I feel like I’m in a healing environment when I am caring for my body and anything I get stuck on I always have support from the staff to make it over the hurdle. Visser is a nice “home” for anyone who needs that kind of environment.
I think it's an excellent facility for those living in the SW quadrant. It's clean and comfortable to use; plenty equipment and updated.
We love all YMCA locations in Grand Rapids but this one is special. It's more low key, has the cleanest facility and the most personal experience. We love the pools at each location but this one offers a smaller setting making lap swimming more accessible and the warm family pool is a hit with our two young boys. We look forward to coming back soon!
Great equipment, staff and family friendly environment.
It's smaller and less busy, a convenient location, clean and has friendly staff.
It’s a wonderful place to stay fit! I love the aerobics and my Y friends😀I could go on forever about why I love the Visser Y😀❤️
easy parking, always clean, variety off programs
Close to home, always clean, plenty of well maintained equipment, friendly place both staff and members.
location; hours of availability; meeting new folks and interaction with staff
Great options for workouts and recreation, great programs for all ages, and wonderful people on staff!
We love the warm family/therapy pool!
Love the Y and especially this location. I’m closer to the spartan one and drive longer just to come here. The fact that it has a kid zone is definitely the main reason- my kids absolutely love it here. They ask me everyday to come, I feel like that speaks volume! They’re all so nice and I’ve never had a bad experience!

The teachers are always very engaging and kind. My daughter loves her swim lessons here!
