Member Testimonials
Great place, clean and friendly.
Friendly staff and the water seems clean.
My daughter is loving camp at camp great adventure. She was so pumped to tell me her huddle won the spirit stick. Thank you to all camp staff.
We have had a very good experience so far this summer. I hope the current counselors stay and keep coming back. As well as the kids who are friends with my kids. I got my kids swimming lessons since last time and they have been enjoying it more for more reasons than that. It is a lot better this year in many ways. We are also looking forward to the talent show. One area for improvement is janitorial services.
The friendly atmosphere, pool safety, equipment sanitation and all awesome place.
The Y members at Poole are extremely helpful and always ready to serve the members

Everyone is so nice and welcoming 💖
The staff really take care and pride in the care of the students.
The automated check in is an improvement. Still needs a little attention, but better.
I recently had a frustrating experience at the Southeast Raleigh YMCA where it took nearly 4 weeks for my children to be added to my membership. The front desk customer service people were not helpful or understanding and unfortunately, I had to be a squeaky wheel to get the problem resolved. Thankfully, it was fixed and my children were able to attend childcare, I was able to take my class, and we then went to the Poole Family YMCA with friends and had a wonderful experience. The man checking us in at the Poole YMCA pool was lovely and very helpful, answering all our questions as we had not attended that location in a while!
The friendliness of the staff and fellow exercisers!
Friendly staff and lovely outdoor pool!
A small bike rack near the pool would be great, maybe a pace clock too (really, any clock with a second hand) if you get many lap swimmers
Phenomenal experience. I have three lovely but sometimes chaotic boys who enjoy going to the Poole family Y’s pool. The staff is so helpful and polite. And they are great with the polite but stern reminders of the rules. Because sometimes lord knows my boys need friendly reminders (no matter how many times I tell them).
I’m a return member. I can use equipment without waiting.
It’s clean!
Facilities are great. Staff are competent and friendly. Class instructors are great!

My grand daugther is so happy when I pick her up....she is really enjoying herself. The staff is friendly and approachable. We really like the end of day activity sheet and next day agenda.
My son likes going and it keeps him active.
I love that the counselors and leadership interact well with the kids. My kids are excited to come because they know their names and will engage with them.
Callen thoroughly enjoyed the First Responders Camp week. It was awesome to see all that the campers were actually being taught, shown how to do, and then allowed to do under the staff's supervision. He learned a lot and is excited about doing again next summer!
