Member Testimonials
I drive 22 miles one way to go to the Lake Highlands YMCA because of the INCREDIBLE Instructor, Darryl Reese. He is so very dedicated and inspirational! I m retired and get up at 4:30 a.m. to attend Darryl's class. He deserves a raise! Please give him our kudos and appreciation!
The staff are all super friendly! Combine that with seeing the same members when I go make me feel like I’m part of a family!
Lastly, the new renovation a couple years back really made the facilities super nice.
The indoor pool is a little cold, has perfect depths and there’s plenty of room in the southernmost lane for walkers and non-swimming water exercisers. I find members very friendly and easy to talk to. Staff is stellar and always ready to help. 
Lake Highlands Y is very clean and comfortable; but we need to get the message out to families not to leave dirty towels and paper on the floors  in the shower rooms. Cleanliness and kindness are the best and most considerate behaviors we can share. And NO GLASS CONTAINERS ANYWHERE and DON’T TAKE THE TOWELS HOME! 
Excellent facilities. Knowledgeable instructors. Friendly, helpful staff. Thank you!!
It is like a community center as well as a fitness club. I like having coffee with my neighbors there in the morning after my workout and the towel service that is included in my membership!
Love it
Excellent
Everything. Great facility, selection of classes, equipment, staff…..
I loved this place and everyone is working here. They are always ready to help and explain. Thank you 😊 highly recommend it
Very friendly and welcoming staff. Nice clean equipment and well-staffed childcare
Alex, my son’s instructor, is absolutely amazing - so friendly, patient, and understanding. I truly love going to Lake Highlands YMCA. Everyone there is so welcoming and kind. Thank you all so much for making it such a wonderful experience!
Just a great neighborhood fitness facility. I really only lift and run but they have tons of amenities, classes and activities for everyone. Facility is very clean and has a decent amount of gym equipment. Not as much as a dedicated gym for weight training but enough to have variety in your workouts. Not too crowded either. More crowded in the summer months when the teens come in but it's not bad.
Facility equipment available, friendly staff, well organized.
It’s a descent place to work out, staff is always friendly and helpful. Good atmosphere
Well Managed indoor pool.
My wife and I are brand new members and have only been three times. We swam some laps, sharing a lane for we were not practicing any truly know stroke, just swimming and a bit of outdoor pool time (and Slide!). Next day we tried the Sunday Yoga and today, Tuesday, I did the Aqua Fitness (Shallow). While I'm trying to find the right fit and schedule for myself, we have thus far very much enjoyed the classes and especially the renovated facility, new machines, friendly staff.
Thank you,

Great YMCA
I recommend LH YMCA often and will continue to do so.
Pleasant, clean enviroment. I like the prayer room and the pickleball and my wife likes the body pump class and the lap pool.
Locker rooms are great.

The pool
Building is always clean & all employees are friendly & helpful.
Well, the Lake Highlands Y has some nice features that many people would enjoy.  These include, not necessarily in any order:
- A very friendly staff
- Equipment and floors are clean
- Many new pieces of work out equipment
- Austin Cooper offers great personal workouts
- Tai Chi Class is good for everyone
- If you want it, the Y has it
Joined for the pool to lap swim and it's always too warm so I have to go to other YMCA's pools
Facility is lovely. Wish the group exercise classes would be changed up occasionally. Spin is not being taught by live instructors enough. Some morning classes such as Monday 9:30 HIIT and Thursday 9:30 Pilates need music change. In general instructors need a variety of playlists. They should be alternating weekly.
Super-friendly staff, a clean and well-kept facility, and there is so much to do! You have something for everyone!
I love it! It’s clean and have great friendly staff.
Every employee I have had contact with has been extremely helpful and friendly. I came to Lake Highlands for the eGym equipment.
Everyone that works there is friendly and helpful and I always have a good time when working out there!
