A good wellness center, great location, excellent staff.
The people are great and the vibe! The only issue I ever have is the high school kids sit with their phones and will not move off the machines!

I love the facility
I really enjoy the number and options for group exercise activities. My favorite yoga class is Saturday mornings at 9:30am with Sarah. I wish I lived closer to visit more frequently.
I think that Fei’s Yoga class is popular class in YMCA, but she only has this class on Thursdays. Not enough for most of people who enjoy her Yoga classes, and it’s hard to get a reservation for it. Could you consider giving her more classes in the future. We will be really appreciation for that.😊 thank you!
I really enjoy the lesson of Fei’s yoga. But her lesson is too popular to reserve. Is there a solution? Or move to a bigger classroom. Or increase her lesson. Thank you!
Excellent experience for the membership! Just one advice, The Yoga coach Fei was very popular , her class is very difficult to make appointments, could you please add her class for us?thank you so much 🙏
Easy to do...
I would like to see a putting green!!
I really enjoyed every workout at the YMCA, the environment was beautiful, the people looked positive and the staff was always friendly. The only thing that made me feel uncomfortable was that sometimes I was using the machines, and some people would stand on the opposite side waiting and watching me exercise directly, I knew they wanted to be the first to use it after I was done, but it was rude, the look made me feel so uncomfortable, I was afraid to say it, just ended quickly and left. I know the YMCA is not going to stop Indians from being accused of discrimination or anything, but I'm really afraid of that.
I needed plastic bags for the wet clothes I asked them for it and they got it right away
Spinning instructor Marion Brame!
Many fitness classes through thrive, great instructors, monthly thrive activities, friendly and helpful staff, large venue.
They have the most helpful and nicest staff anywhere around as for as I’m concerned.
Always smiling and upbeat.
I’ve been to several different YMCA’s in the Apex,Cary and Raliegh area but the Carpenter Fire Station Road is one I would recommend by far.
I am a lap swimmer so I love being able to reserve a single lane any day of the week. The water is usually a comfortable temperature even on cold winter days. Since I have several health concerns, I feel fortunate that I can get my exercise outdoors year-round.
I am also quite fond of the front desk staff. They always greet me and my husband warmly and have learned my name. Northwest Cary YMCA is my happy place!
I am a member at a different location (East Triangle). It is a beautiful facility (NW Cary). The staff was friendly, but I had to explain myself (I am visiting from another Y) when I asked where a classroom & towel drop-off are located. I shouldn't have to explain that this is my first time using the facility & do not know where the bathroom, classrooms, etc are located. Honestly, the staff needs to be a little friendlier.
The instructor (Fei) was awesome! I loved the class. No joke. One of the best yoga classes I have been to in a long time. We need a similar class at my Y (East Triangle).
Very nice facility!
