What could we do to improve?

Have classes for kids. There are no classes for kids. It's all for older adults.

What do you like about your Lakewood-Turmbull YMCA Family Time experience?

The vacation club when schools are closed is a life saver for parents that both work. The parents night out are great. Amazing for $25 or so. Our son loves going and can't wait for summer camp.

What could we do to improve?

More trained coaches. More individualized coaching. All the kids are mixed and some of them have not built the skills they need.

What do you like about your Lakewood-Trumbull YMCA Gymnastics experience?

Coach Jane and Coach Liliana (? Apologies as I don’t remember her name but she is great) are awesome coaches. Encouraging and totally meeting the kids where they are especially the little little ones. My daughter looks forward to gymnastics every Saturday morning!

What do you like about your Fairfield YMCA Membership experience?

Outstanding staff and exercising facilities. The men’s locker room and showers could use an upgrade. Overall, an excellent, well managed and accommodating YMCA. Highly recommend.

What could we do to improve?

The Y monthly cost is very high as compared to other gyms in the area

One improvement would be to add a basketball floor to the large room

What could we do to improve?

Staff is good, but the management is really off on environmental aspect of the facility. Even though the building is at end of life there are some simple low cost improvements they need to consider. Management is very rude about these issues. Take a new look at the management.

What do you like about your Soundview Famly YMCA Membership experience?

I enjoy the camaraderie and the social aspect of getting my exercise with others in my age group. It gives me a good reason to get myself up and going!!!

Report a concern   May 23, 2026 — Rated 6 out of 10 by M.C. Fairfield YMCA Membership
What could we do to improve?

Add another pool. Swim times for working adults are limited and not always convenient.
Upgrade the facilities in general, including locker rooms, add a sauna. More parking needed. The faculty seems dated and too small to accommodate the community for the size of the town.

What could we do to improve?

Add more advanced learning activities for kids other than state level. You can also go a level up to give jumpstart to kids. Other than that staff is really great!

What could we do to improve?

Clean floor in weight room more often ( especially corners, along walls and remove “creature” traps in a timely manner)
Scrape and repaint areas of walls in need
Enforce rule to “ wipe down equipment” before and after using

What do you like about your Fairfield YMCA Membership experience?

I am a long term user of the pool at the Y. The lifeguards are so nice to everyone, and so solicitous of some of the seniors. I would like to commend both Nick & Nicky for their efforts in this regard. Sarah is also someone who really shows concern when she sees someone needing a lane designation etc.

Everyone at the reception desk is so friendly. Many greet me by name. I know they can see my name on the computer screen when I log in, but it is an appreciative gesture.

However, as I age, I would so appreciate more handicapped spots in the front of the Y. In the past year, I have 2 surgeries. When I was able to return to the Y to exercise, especially at that critical noonish time, when the kiddies are being picked up, the available parking is an issue for me.
Thank you for considering a few more signs.
