Lesson learned, but they don't have any WiFi services. We went back and looked on the website, but totally missed it. We noticed that the staff were very responsive, which was great. Just a couple of items I would recommend for maintenance/cleaning purposes. After a customer has left, make sure to check the outdoor bulbs. One of our porch bulbs was out, but the other one thankfully provided enough lighting. As you can imagine, it can get very dark at night. Also make sure to sweep around the porch area and look for cobwebs. Also make sure to check the utensils after each stay. Some of the utensils were cheaply made, and were used inappropriately on a grill. Also, the broom inside of our Airbnb probably either needed to be replaced or cleaned. We noticed that there was a lot of hair trapped within the broom bristles. So as we were trying to clean, the broom was actually leaving more and more hair on the floor. Also, keep in mind, you have to take out your own trash, which was a first for us. Lastly, you may want to bring your own pillows if you have any back or neck issues. They were super flat and uncomfortable. Other than those items, the Airbnb was clean. If you don't mind tiny places, then you definitely want to check out River Ridge.

The sites are very level and clean. They seemed a little close to me, though.

The sites aren't shaded, it's not kid friendly, and there's nothing to do during the middle of the day. We sat by the fire at night. It was peaceful, but mosquitoes tried to eat us up. Even with bug spray. The dog park was good, but not shaded. There's no wifi, no free toilets, no free showers. You'll be okay if you have those things in your camper. We have an older class C van, so we weren't happy at all. I had such high hopes for this place, too. It should be better in 2030, when the newly planted trees get big enough to provide shade. Maybe they'll have a bathhouse by then, too.

What we got was ... the absolute perfect location to spend a night above a 50ft waterfall that lullabied us to bed. A perfect storm came through in the night to maintain that REM. Then a fuller waterfall and a few dozen songbirds to wake us up in the morning. Not even temped to hit the snooze button on that! Mr.Miller's hospitality is superb. He enjoys sharing his creativity, which is impressive, and thanks to it we had a perfect glamper to stay in and have this great experience. We took our time getting up, had some coffee, and drank it on the back deck as we watched the waterfall, yes you read that right ..... waterfall is visible from the glamper, just laying in bed I can lift my head and see it.

This branch offers several amenities including an indoor and outdoor pool, indoor walking track, basketball gym, fitness gym, exercise classes, child watch (8 weeks -12 years) and youth after school and summer programs. Each time I visit, my experience has been consistently positive. The staff at this branch are very friendly and overall the facility is clean and well-maintained without signs of overcrowding.

When they called me regarding the situation they stated they just noticed he had environmental allergies (he has multiple environmental allergies stated) but did not tell me he played in the grass, till I later asked them. I had to leave work early to pick him up, and he had a severe allergic reaction, as he practically went into anaphylactic shock. I had to miss work the very next day to take him to the doctor to make sure his organs were still functioning appropriately. I paid $100 for two days with no refund. I emailed the director of the holiday camps about this situation, where she has yet to reply acknowledging the situation.

I also paid extra for bathroom facilities but wasn't made aware of the code. I got that ironed out the next morning. On arrival it was dark. I mean black. Nothing lit at all. I couldn't find any signage. I finally got to the RV sites. Somehow I was under the impression I was site 19. My mistake. I got backed but not using the right track, again, the place is black as night. No pun intended. In the morning I awoke to find 4 or 5 other units scattered about. They seem to be long term units. On looks like a meth lab. The grass is long and hasn't been cut in 10 days or so. The dog park is ready to be harvested not just cut. The bathroom facilities were immaculate and worth $40 a night is yours are sketchy. My girlfriend wanted more space than my little Oliver offered. I'm used to it so I stuck to my RV. The hookups are top notch and in perfect condition. All the travel surfaces and camping surfaces have a weed barrier and crushed stone. There is no liter or refuse about except for the meth trailer which is a real eyesore and the dog park which needs mowing horribly. Its location is great. I will probably be back and check it out but I won't prebook.

Weights: Small area in the corner of the gym. Obviously not really their target market. It was enough to get through a workout but not what I expect from a YMCA of this size. Cardio: The equipment was high quality. It probably was the most luxury treadmill I have stepped foot on. The rope climbing machine was new for me but wow was it an awesome burn. 3 minutes in to the rope climbing machine at the end of my workout definitely took all of my arm muscles and heart to exhaustion! Pool: Indoor and huge Atmosphere: Strong family atmosphere. It seemed they catered more to the family than the average gym goer. It seemed like a day care with a gym attached almost. Nothing against it but I don't have kids so the daycare wasn't needed for me.

I will say that I love the YMCA as a whole which is why this complaint is addressed to an indivudiual I am single mother of a 12 year old and for that reason I am currently on a scholarship at the YMCA. My daughter has been apart of the youth program since I started going and I must say I am truly disgusted at the experience that happened last week on 6/17. At 3 pm I received a call from Bradley Ruff who is over the summer program and the YMCA. When I answered the phone, he quickly stated to me "What time are you picking up your daughter" I replied is something wrong he then stated yes. He then proceeds to tell me that my child lied in regard to a sunscreen incident that took place the day prior. He stated to me that he took it upon himself to watch the camera and stated that she intentionally sprayed sunscreen in her eye. He then tells me that my child is disrespectful and she " walks the line" . I explained to him that I have had nothing, but good reports and I am not sure what he is talking about. I told him that I would address her in regard to the sunscreen incident he tells me that's not enough and she can't come back to the program. As I stated in the beginning of this complaint, I am a single mother and for him to make this decision that allowed me no time to find child care is completely disgusting to say the least. He even stated to me " we have worked with your daughter" as if he is doing me a favor and I should be grateful! Absolutely not! You are supposed to work with kids! That is your job! To make matter worst this past weekend my daughter was with my mother while she was pumping gas and on the other side was a white male counselor and my daughter saw him she quickly hid her face! She stated that he doesn't like her and yells at her! She also stated that he made her sit out for an entire 4 hours! The YMCA featured me on their page and highlighted that I was a single parent but yet kicked my daughter out of summer camp with no warning or time to find care?! I attended a TRX class at the Y and have been for the last two years which means I have spent a total of $1,080 alone for this class as a single parent! There was a incident two weeks ago where my daughter was in the gym with me, when we left out a rep at the front desk made it her business to ask my how old my daughter was ( mind you she was a few days from turning 12) she told me that she was not old enough to be in the fitness center. Well two weeks after that a white man and his son were in the gym and walked past the same rep that was at the front desk, yet she didn't say anything to them until I called it to her attention! There honestly needs to be some revaluating of the youth program , there are 16 year old working with 12 year old and it is obvious that they do not have the patience for a 12 year old! Brad also told me child to "get out of his office" and called her a liar! I will be cancelling my membership as well
