The counselors are great! Everything is well-run and my daughter loves camp.
The staff is so nice and it’s really well organized
Jermique is the GOAT! He runs a high-energy camp that is 100% focused on creating positive relationships with campers and creating lasting memories. My three kids (age 11, 8, 6) have attended summer day camps at seven (7) different YMCA of the Triangle locations and have had great experiences everywhere, but NW Cary is the camp they ask to return to every year.
I daydream about having my kids some day becoming counselors at NW Cary YMCA to continue benefitting from the amazing role models there. Strong work, Jermique & team!

The Friendly staff and people I’ve met that also work out there
The Hatha yoga class was great - it's the first yoga class I've taken that doesn't feel like I'm in a gym - it felt like I was in a yoga studio. There are bolsters, blocks, straps, mats, towels in the front, and even candles. I'm thrilled with these types of yoga enhancement and by the quality of instruction. The instructor was watching each student and correcting, when appropriate. I've been practicing yoga for 25 years. The front desk was very welcoming. Though I didn't see the gym yet, I felt that the indoor track, although small, is great for the summer or winter when there is extreme weather. I also appreciated little folded up pieces of paper in a basket on a table that had encouraging "sayings" that didn't feel too preachy. This type of positivity can only be helpful in today's world, filled with stressors and instability. I LOVED my overall experience. I am usually at the Branch (Carrboro/Chapel Hill) or the Meadowmont pool. Was very impressed with the facilities and people at NW Cary. Will be back for more yoga classes.
Great family gym!

Nice locker room and workout class studio.
Northwest YMCA offers something for everyone. It is a beautiful facility with lots to offer.
Very happy with the membership, the staff and the facilities.
The variety of equipment and the Senior citizen events.
Friendly staff, amenities, equipment quality
How helpful and friendly the staff are, the cleanliness of the facilities. Great numbers of different equipment to choose from.
Friendly staff. Updated elliptical machines. Cleanliness
I like that the program is hosted at the school so that our child does not have to travel somewhere else. This maximizes the safety of our child. I also like that the YMCA afterschool program brings them out of the school to the car doubling down on the non adult entry that makes it a lot safer for all the students.
Friendly Staff; Choices of classes; Spacious environment
Great experience
What I love most about the Northwest Cary YMCA Day Camp is the incredible balance of structure, activity, and pure fun! The counselors bring so much energy every day, and they do a fantastic job making every camper feel included and excited. My child comes home exhausted in the best way possible after a full day of team games, and outdoor play. The staff is warm, professional, and attentive, and the pickup/drop-off process (Rides In/Rides Out) is seamless and organized. It gives me total peace of mind knowing my child is in a safe, positive environment where YMCA core values are reinforced. We'll definitely be back next season!
It's clean and wel organized.

5) The building creates a good atmosphere inside.
6) People are friendly, active, clean.
Clean, nice equipment, great staff. A bit crowded, but tolerable.
Everything about the facility feels modern. There is a lot of equipment for cardio and for strength training. The men's locker room was clean, and the steam room and sauna were working. The locker combination locks took some adjustment compared with what I was used to at other Ys, but it was kind of nice not to have to check my car keys to get a locker. The lockers also were spacious and plentiful.

My child loved it
