The first time I walked in I was greeted near the front-desk check-in area by a high-spirted woman named Sandy. Sandy is awesome, she freely showed me around the place, spoke to me like family and just made me feel very welcomed. I look forward to seeing her again! Thank you!

I really, really wanted to love this location of YMCA for its gym, but I just don't. The parking…read morelot is always jammed packed, the equipment has seen better days, and there's always at least 2 treadmills shutdown for service. Once I was on one and it glitched on me going from 3.6 speed to 6! Anyway, if that wasn't enough there's virtually no space and you may bump into people on equipment (dangerous). The locker room smells and the classes are always full. Sure if you want a lesser expensive gym w a sauna, maybe you could forgive all of those issues, but for me it's just not it. I will say the customer service is phenomenal. Everyone who works there surely make up for the lackluster gym experience.

I'm not a member at Life Time but I've been lucky enough to be a guest here a few times. I've…read morelifted here and most recently, took a vinyasa yoga class. The facility is massive -- it almost feels like a mall. There's a cafe, indoor pool, plenty of fitness areas, and spacious locker rooms. Everything felt very clean here which is a plus. The Sunday 10:45am vinyasa class was advertised as "medium heat" but it barely felt heated. The instructor wasn't my favorite and the flow felt clunky and disorganized. Her queueing wasn't very clear and if I were a newbie yogi, I'd be pretty confused. Most of the class was spent in child's pose or savasana and I would've preferred more time to flow and play. The studio itself is fairly small for the size of the rest of the gym. As a guest recently, I had to download the app in order to get my guest pass which was pretty annoying. I've never seen another gym do that and didn't appreciate the extra hoops to jump through. Overall, if this gym was closer and less expensive I'd consider it but for now, I appreciate the chance to be a guest here.

I went to this gym from 2023 - 2025 and finally canceled my membership in December. The staff are…read moreincredibly nice, honestly they are the best. But the crazy expensive cost is not worth it. It feels like all the money goes to extras like the sitting areas, pickleball courts, classes that cost additional money, etc. The only gym area is the second floor, and even that is taken up by classes. Machines are often broken and dirty, kids are CONSTANTLY running around unsupervised and playing on the equipment, and the gym etiquette has taken a severe hit. You see people filming, reading up multiple machines, sitting for an hour while scrolling, and not putting things back. I had to change my workout so many times because the free weights were missing entire bands of weights. Again, the staff is incredibly kind and nice. But the gym does not deserve the almost $200 a month price point. I would pay $40.

There is no place I'd rather spend my summers.

We've been going to the Roger Carter Center for many years. The gym/workout area is basic, but…read moreadequate. Parking can be a nightmare, especially on the weekends, as there are few spaces available on the street level and the parking garage is small and located far from the main entrance. If a piece of equipment is broken or out of order (including fans), it usually takes weeks before repairs are affected. The biggest problem at the center, though, is the lack of rule enforcement by staff. Some gym goers seem to believe that this is their own personal gym and think nothing of dangerously modifying the equipment, turning the room fans off or physically moving them to meet their own personal comfort, talking on cell phones, playing music or videos audibly, remaining on aerobic equipment beyond the 30-minute limit, scrolling on their phones for 10 minutes or more between sets, entering the building from the 3rd floor and not bothering to check in at the front desk (are these people even members?), and on and on. Prior to the pandemic, there was a staff member positioned on the 2nd floor workout area who monitored the space. Since that time, staff presence on the 2nd floor is minimal or non-existent, and most staff members seem content to sit in their chairs at the front desk, staring at their cell phones. I realize it is a $16/hour job, but can they not show a little initiative and make the rounds to ensure that members are adhering to the rules, especially when it comes to cell phone use and dangerous gym practices on the floor? This situation is becoming untenable, as members are forced to either confront gym goers who are exhibiting bad etiquette themselves, or alert someone at the front desk (which, at least the two times I did went this route, yielded zero results).

Very disappointing to have to then walk all the way down those stairs. Also a large hot tub that is for only over 18 - don't even think of putting your toe in it if you're under the age limit as you will immediately be chastised. There also is a whirlpool which is fun but don't put your head under the water as you will immediately have a whistle blown at you. My advice is make sure to go with friends or make sure that you're going to play in the pool with your kids. There isn't enough attractions to hold interest for long. For the price of $6 each tho I think we did ok Bathrooms dressing rooms were adequate.
