I have read some of the other reviews and I hate to see people have had anything less than a fantastic experience. I want to emphasize that we have never felt anything less than welcomed at this location. My son doesn't open up to people very often, but he always readily signs up for anything offered because he loves it. I am very particular about who my child is around and associates with, so I understand that some people may have concerns, but I follow recommend the Wilkes Family YMCA for all activities!

First off, the front desk people, and some of the interior staff are extremely nice and helpful so…read moreI don't want them getting mixed into the rest; however, both I, and other I know closely have had extensive issues with the other staff, even the daycare staff. On top of that, there were honestly times where we felt creeped out by some of the gym-goers who would intently stare and watch you in the work out room. At first I put it off thinking "oh I or whoever looks familiar", but it got weirder as time went on and the same 5 regulars stared me down and honestly made me just never want to bother going there to workout. The janitor, I do not know her name and it's not like she'd tell you, was beyond rude telling us to "hurry the hell up" in the changing rooms 10 minutes before closing of the pool room, not the gym, when we already were leaving! Then as we pass her walking out she cusses us under her breath. Come to find out she's had multiple complaints and was never fired or even scolded, that I would guess. The daycare staff allegedly led someone's kid barefoot out of the classroom, through the halls, and into a public restroom, which is very unsanitary for a 3 year old. There was also a shooting there recently, which doesn't factor into the review, but was my ultimate decision to stop my membership. When I attempted to cancel the membership, it had already charged me and I was told I would receive a refund since the payments are delayed on my bank so I assumed it was still ok. I called back a week later saying I had not received a refund and would like to know if I was ever going to get it back, they told me no and that "they typically don't do that" which implies they can; however, they insisted I could not have a refund even after I explained my situation which is honestly ridiculous. It's not the staff's fault in that case, it's the policy, and the lady I spoke to was very kind about it, but it doesn't change the fact that I should have received a refund since my payments are typically random and I basically called the day I was charged asking to cancel the membership and request a refund. All in all, aside from these reasons, the only redeeming factor is the pool. Also do be aware that if you have children, men in the men's locker room ARE NOT changing in the adult section, they will walk around bare butt booty naked everything hanging out in the under 18 section in-front of other's kids and that is flat out disgusting like c'mon. Very nice weight lifting section and courtroom, the back workout room kinda sucks as there's not really more than one set of weights and 1 machine of every type which makes it difficult especially on busier nights. If you want a gym, do not go to the Wilkes YMCA, just do a local gym instead or go to planet fitness, it's going to be cheaper, better, and have more equipment. $30 a month for somewhere this poor is absolutely not worth it when its that uncomfortable to go.

And you're required to use those crummy tools. Can't use your own. All you'll find are tiny pieces of quartz because they limit you to a tiny section of the creek that is TORN up. However, if you feel like pointlessly digging through dry, red clay you can use your own tools. Then, after tiring yourself out you can buy imported dirt buckets for ridiculously high prices. Because you won't get anything worth from the creek or "dig site"

Mind you the whole time I was there behind a huge glass the guy was treating me like I was a fungus. Anyway I had 95 copies which at staples or Office Depot would be .13 to 22 cents a page. This guy tells me he charges $1.50 per copy which of course is ridiculous. Then going to say he will do it for $60 as if that's better. I even showed him and called to show him that price wasn't even remotely within a decent range and he just stood there looking crazy. Anyway I went to Office Depot and got my prints for $13.30. If you are looking for prints then you better be rich to go here or have unlimited supply of money bc they price gouging. And i had my 9 month old with me and he began to spray something all over the counter before I even left out the door and I NEVER touched anything. How rude. I was getting racist vibes to be honest.

When we had rented the unit the idiot manager couldn't even figure out how to use the computer. He also insured me that they didn't have a mouse problem and this was important since my husband's deer heads were being stored in there. Eight months later I can tell you the manager is never there. If you pay online then the idiot doesn't always credit it until you call him to do his job. If you pay by phone he will do this credit at his home which is not comforting when giving out your credit card number. He also has an out of state number and is never on location and always has to call you back. Then the beginning of November we were late and deserved the late fees but started getting endless emails that they were cutting our locks and taking pictures of the unit and added a $75 with the emails. We paid up but owed for November yet we kept getting these emails threatening to take our items. Then we paid everything and started getting emails demanding to know when we were going to get our items when we had till December 8th to get them. When picking up the items we had well over $3000 in damages due to mice. We even killed a mouse when removing the items. Everyone of my husband's deer heads were destroyed along with his mounted bobcat and groundhog. Boxes had been chewed along with blankets. There were rat nests in many of the boxes and I promise we left them nothing in our unit to attract them. Upon leaving we couldn't fit everything so three days later my mother in law came and got the rest of the items and swept the unit and insured it was clean but as always the no one was in the office so she called us and I called the manager and told him it was cleaned out like he had requested. Then a few weeks later I'm still receiving bills and keep contacting the manager telling him it's empty and he called me a liar and said we still had a lock on the door and I insured him that whatever was in that unit wasn't ours nor the lock, yet I still kept receiving bills. Then today he says he's charging me a cleanout fee for leaving unwanted items in the unit that are not mine. Don't go here. They are crooked and your items will be destroyed.
