The staff is friendly and helpful. The people who use the facilities are willing to help you with your work out. The Aquatics area is one of the best, with a lap pool, all purpose pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and clean locker rooms.

Bad experience, felt like wasted money and time. My son is 10 and he was really disappointed after each class, small and big kids with different level of swimming were in same class. I would never join YMCA again.

I struggle between 2 and 3 stars. I was a member at Kent County YMCA, so I was used to a great facility 6/5 stars. However, this location does not pick up the gymnastics equipment, so half of the gym is usable. If you look to play basketball this is not a facility that is friendly to that. There is not a lot of acreage to go hiking or lakes or ponds on site.

The workout facility is decent. The pool is the best part of the location.

One thing that is unique is that the kids in what appears to be summer camp spend their time inside and not outside.

Again the experience that Kent County YMCA gives is what I am used to, so to see the facility not being as well is what gives this place 2 and not 3.

focused on children and families. if you're a senor, count on some waits to use fitness equipment during peaks, kids using machines for fun, lack of timely machine repairs, no parking during swim meets, and 'surprise' shut downs for halloween parties, staff meetings and other poorly noticed events. a 'smart' developer recently built hundreds of apts next door to take advantage of this Y, so expect more crowding in the near future. it's a nice place, but seniors are subsidizing other users.

Hands down, the Farmington Valley YMCA is the best Y and gym that I have ever been to. The leadership in this Y is caring and sincere. They take the time to get to know their staff and members and show an interest in their lives. They have a huge variety of work out spaces and activities. I can't express enough how much I love them and how they are like a big family. Keep going strong!

Love this place. It provides so many incredible programs that allow kids to grow physically and emotionally. There s tons of activities for families to spend quality time with each other. If you re strictly looking for a gym, their variety of FREE group exercise classes run from family-friendly to hard core. The exercise center is clean and judgement free and offers Personal Training to help get you ready for that up-coming Tough Mudder or Spartan Race. Oh, by the way, they have two pools (both heated and comfy), one for laps (not too warm) and a multi-purpose.

We have been members for 10 years and have found the staff and the leadership to be courteous, efficient, and conscientious. During the Covid period they have been responsible in limiting risk and making the best of a bad situation.

Hadn't gone to this Y for 10 yrs (living abroad) and went back recently to find a place that is still very clean with a nice lap pool (perfect temp!), a cozy dive pool (warm!), steam room, sauna, hot tub and plenty of other stuff. Great winter spot!!!

Great gym. Great value. Rock wall. Dive pool. Lap pool. Gymnasium. Great exercise room with treadmills, freeweights and Nautilus equipment. Additional rooms for programs like spinning. Used to have more to do for the kids in the play room, but still a decent place to let the 8-12 yr olds sit around while you get your workout in. Also has a Subway right in the front. Everything is clean. Only tried the jacuzzi pool once, it was ok. Have yet to try to spa or steam rooms. They run some good programs from here. Swim lessons and gymnastics as well as archery and others.
