Member Testimonials
It has a variety of services. We don’t use the pool, but it’s great for kids. I like the basketball courts and the weight equipment.
I do not like the fact that the guest passes are so expensive for when you want to bring a friend
The people who work there are very friendly, the members are nice and non-judgmental, the facility is clean.
Everything is good there
The quality of programs and the staff who lead those programs and classes.

Class diversity - Ease of access near my home - Reciprocal access to YMCA locations when we travel - Outdoor pool - Staff very friendly & helpful
Love the pickleball open play run by Dan. Really enjoy the pools and sauna. Super nice staff. Love the thrive classes. Front desk staff super helpful and nice. I really enjoy my time at the Y. Looking forward to fireworks too. Loved the prayer breakfast.
Front desk staff is always so friendly and welcoming!!! Make my day!
Love having the outdoor pool open year round.
Lifeguards outside are good about making sure the lap lanes are open to lap swimmers and keep people playing in their areas. I feel very safe that I will not get hit or bumped into by a "stray swimmer". I had major knee surgery so this has been a relief for me.
Outside pool is open year round.
The pool is one of the best within the triangle.
Great community and staff! The facility is stretched beyond capacity, though. Need to expand or stop selling new memberships.
I have been a YMCA member for over 30 years….now at AE Finley for the last 7. A friendly, welcoming place to keep moving and cultivate a healthy lifestyle has been paramount - and the Y delivers all year round. What could be better than belonging to a community with common interests, goals and so many available programs! Keep up the good work! :)
The pool is great.
As a family we use access a lot. Seeing if my in laws can do it as well but it is cost prohibitive for them.
I would highly recommend AE Finley Ymca Saturday morning. The parking lot is a disaster. The staff that I met was very friendly and helpful. My granddaughter was having her first swimming lesson. The instructor seemed to do a very good job.
The equipment
The pool
as a southeast y member with a pool, it’s nice to be able to meet with friends in other parts of raleigh and still enjoy a y pool. love the number of lifeguards and so great to have the slide there (my kid’s first time going down!) - our only note was that the women’s bathroom smelled overwhelmingly like urine so there’s a responsibility on members to help the kids do the right thing, but perhaps an increased mopping frequency would help during peak usage. that smell times a hot bathroom was quite unpleasant. but on the whole, the y is one of the best things about living in the triangle.
Chair yoga classes, nice equipment and friendly staff.
The staff, the members, it's a clean facility, it is well organized, good class line up, good instructors...not much to complain about really!
Friendly well trained staff and class teachers. New machines
Everything
Very friendly member services lady. Made it easy to convert membership to full family. Thank you
Location, friendly staff, clean facilities, indoor/outdoor pools with many lanes. Loads of classes to take at different times.
Large campus for outdoor camps and the courts for basketball are great
I love the community in the classes .
Life changer ! I’m feeling so much stronger now that I have been working out at the ymca and my child loves the kidzone and the small kids pool
Cleanness, equipment availability, staff friendliness
Amazing staff! We have been so impressed specifically with the sports director!
Time slot for the class I want in the indoor pool.
The staff are so friendly and welcoming. They’ve made me feel comfortable even though I’m overweight, and overtired with a baby. I really appreciate the kidzone staff and the wonderful women at the front desk.
