Reviews of Midland YMCA (Gym)

D W Thompson

Good equipment. Quiet place. More for mature people.

Heinrich Naumann

Excellent facility

Kelly Barron - Dugan

Great staff. Clean facility.

Annika Peloski

They are not open full hours, being closed from 1:30-3:30 making a backlog for students wanting to come and use the open gym. Closed for large parts of the weekend, which doesn't make sense for a gym. The pool is open, but the hot tub, saunas and towel service are not. Check in is complicated. Vaccine proof really needs to be tied to the cards and should only have to be shown once. Self check in could then be that, self admin and faster. The staff are trying so very hard, but they are stuck with some dumb policies.

sambhaji rane

It is YMCA

Emily Brooks

They overcharge a lot considering the disgusting change rooms and pool facilities. The gym is ok but they don't have a lot of options for legs and the stretching room is very far from the gym. The staff are rude and unhelpful for the most part.

Martha Henrickson

Great choices of activities and very friendly staff.

Joshua Chretien

Man oh man this place is certainly a YMCA but its not the best ive seen, a lot of questions that are left unanswered but a Ymca none the less.

Visiting pool for exercise. compared to Alberta the prices are 30- 50 % higher for a below average pool facility. The men's upstairs change room, hot tub and sauna are extremely dirty.The rug looks like a dog mat.( I like dogs) Looking into the hot tub with no jets running the bottom was covered with foreign objects and hair. The water was milky white and lukewarm when I dared stick my toe in ! Staff were very friendly but from the information from family and the public a great deal of the public frequent the local motels like the Quality Inn for approximately $ 8.00

Liz Duguay

I like it here and am relatively satisfied with the facility overall. The building, even the reconstruction is beginning to show it's age but overall is pretty decent. The atmosphere is pretty low key and easy to be in and sometimes gets really busy but the chaos doesn't usually last very long. Friday nights I usually avoid because of too many kids coming for Youth Night (instead of hanging out on the streets or gaming at home alone). Classes provided are fun to do and can be added to your personal challenge bucket list and most of them are included with your membership. LOVE the hottub IN the PlusChangeroom as that is great to decompress after workingout in a more private and segregated space rather than in a common area.

Great North Services

Tons of classes

Gisèle Robillard

They've changed this place place so much that you'd hardly recognize it, compared to the 70s. A wonderful place to exercise.

Tsuki

Great place to work out

Ella Rose Cordes

Wonderful people, real sense of community, lots of equipment in the gym in good condition, hot sauna and whirlpool. But the showers ... I had better ones in the army ! ????

S Cope

Regular mess ups with swim lesson levels. Every time there's an account change they messed up how much they were taking out of my account. Staff is nice tho

Stephanie King

Great staff. Clean

Karl Martell

I enjoy working out there u lot

Tony Henwood

No change rooms open. Have to come dressed in workout attire and no showers afterwards, even though anytime fitness in town has full amenities open.

Shelby Wynia

Great place to take the whole family! Not only can you bring people of all ages, but you can spend the entire day there and not run out of things to do. The staff are extremely knowledgable about the local area, they are patient, friendly and willing to do whatever it takes to offer a great experience for its patrons. The pool is clean and well maintained, the gym always has nice clean floors. The fitness programs are well thought out and designed specifically with members in mind. The child and youth programming is well run, safe and educational. I love the Midland YMCA!!

The Midland YMCA is located in an older space challenged facility. That being said the management and staff work hard at providing friendly efficient service to a broad spectrum of members. Located by the beautiful Little Lake Park setting, this facility serves the full time and seasonal population of this area of Simcoe County. Limited amounts of exercise equipment is available and you may have to wait to use it. Programs including yoga gravity, aquafit, swimming, squash , power fitness etc. are scheduled regularly throughout the week. There is an indoor track and activities available for babies to seniors; all administered by attentive and caring staff. Change facilities need upgrading and the mens spa needs some serious improvements. Parking is ample and free. Membership fees are reasonably low.

Jordan Stewart

sauna is usually down for maintenance for a solid amount of time each year. weight room needs alot of work. it's like the ymcas sad younger brother who got into drugs and never became a good functioning member of society YMCA.

phil delorme

Great place to do your workout

Carrie King-Hofman

Majority of staff are rude and really rude to teenagers when no adults are present. Let your kids know that this is inappropriate and they should let you know if it happens. I complained yet they remain rude and mock you. We don't pay our fees for this behaviour.

Hail The Minty

Brought my 2 young kids there for the "family day activities" that was supposed to be staff led games between 11am and 3pm. The staff never led any games and they packed up all the activities at 1:30 eveb though there was a bunch of young kids still playing. Teens playing basketball almost hit my 2 year old several times. We left in a hurry. Staff seemed dismissive and rude. Will not be going back.

Austin Tschollar

Great people, friendly environment

Jason Williams

Very friendly atmosphere

Denna Woods

My feelings on the YMCA is that they are so friendly and eager to help. Your like family in Midland at the YMCA

Valerie Bedard

This is THE WORST gym you could ever go to!!! First of all, 99% of the staff (including the "personal trainers") are over weight and do not support anyone getting fit at all. If you do somehow get in shape while attending their gym they will make you feel extremely unwelcome and make sure to be rude to you every opportunity they get. The will watch your every move and make sure to "report' you if you are laughing or making them look bad by actually working out. If you try to help someone who might be new to the gym you will be "reported" for performing "personal training" and asked to stop! They are extremely small minded people who would rather that you stay in the same condition as you come there in. Besides all of that... most of the machines are broken, the roof leaks in at least 4 places right onto the ground near outlets and in high traffic areas. The "adult plus" change room that they charge extra for is a complete joke. The hot tub is always broken, the card access on the door is always broken and you can only use one hair dryer at a time or the circuit will blow. The staff will try to "catch" you doing any "unsafe" movements like a fast paced farmers carry and report you but all the while ignoring the huge liabilities and dangers they are responsible for. For example: The roof has leaked for over two years right onto the basketball court, where they simply place a bucket and all the children run around it...as well as many other things. If you are looking to lose weight or get fit...Do yourself a favour and go to a place that actually celebrates and encourages these type of things. As a member of the Midland YMCA since 2009 until this month I regret every single dollar spent there and encourage you to stay away!!!!

Myra Lambert

Best

Barb Sandy

Good swimming

Tracey Clausi

Lots of programs for members and non members alike. Recently joined and a little pricey per month but I understand there reasoning.

Cameron Matheson

Open swimming could be longer and the whole pool. Cmon guys

B. D. Parkes

I have only been a member for a few weeks now. It’s unfortunate that the hot tub & sauna are unavailable… and that lane swims need to be pre-booked. Having said this, I understand the need to adhere to the current Covid protocol. Staff has been very helpful & friendly and I am enjoying my experience thus far. ????

Amanda Strickland

Was horrible experience staff is rude and unwelcoming

Holly Young

Friendly staff , very helpful, the pool is kept at a nice temperature , always a great experience!

Jeanne Quesnelle

People at the front desk were friendly as well Hope. Hope helped me with the treadmill this afternoon. I went in at the last minute. She had to make a couple calls but took the time to help me out. I have an appointment with Cat on Thursday to help me with the other equipment. Looking forward to the training on Thursday.

Deanna Bourgeois

A great place to go and get some exercise. You can go for a swim or join a class to workout. I don't like how they have made the changing facilities.
