Lakeview Fitness

Lakeview Fitness offers both a dry sauna and a steam sauna, which are appreciated for their cleanliness. However, a significant number of gym members report that the dry sauna is not hot enough, citing noticeable heat loss below the door. Members who use the sauna frequently express a desire for higher temperatures and have raised this issue with management, noting a perceived lack of action. The gym's maintenance has indicated the gap is for proper airflow, but regular sauna users feel this compromises the core sauna experience. No cold plunge or contrast therapy facilities are mentioned by members.

Beyond the sauna facilities, this Vernon Hills gym is widely praised for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and excellent value. The facility is newly renovated and provides a wide range of workout options. Members highlight the indoor lap and exercise pool, describing it as warm and top-notch, along with a hot tub that features both seating and standing sections. The gym offers over 60 group exercise classes weekly, including magical yoga sessions, a variety of cardio and weight training machines, and a free weight area. The locker rooms are noted for being exceptionally clean. Many members describe it as a well-equipped, low-key community gym with an affordable price point and a supportive atmosphere, with some families having enjoyed membership for over 15 years.
