About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
Gym members report significant and recurring issues with the sauna and steam room facilities. These amenities are frequently broken down or not working properly, with one often out of service. Cleanliness is a major concern, as members note the sauna and steam rooms can be disgusting and may contain possible mold. The spa area is also mentioned as not functioning appropriately. There is no mention of a cold plunge in member feedback.
Atmosphere
The overall gym environment is a primary point of criticism. Members describe the facility as unbearably hot and humid with poor air circulation, often reaching over 80 degrees even on mild days. In winter, the opposite problem occurs, with the gym becoming freezing cold. The parking lot is noted for being in very poor condition with potholes and patchwork. Water-stained ceilings and a washed-out mulched trail are also mentioned.
Pricing
Membership fees are reported to be over $100 per month. There is mention of a $200 cancellation fee, and some members describe the gym's sales tactics as sneaky and sales-oriented. Training sessions are noted as costing over $100.
Staff
Feedback on staff is mixed. Some members describe them as super nice, while others feel corporate leadership has failed the location. A specific General Manager, Chris, is mentioned in the context of handling membership cancellations.
Additional Amenities
Beyond the problematic wellness areas, the gym offers extensive amenities. These include a resort-style pool, a smoothie shop offering protein smoothies, and a wide variety of group exercise classes with instructors described as amazing. However, class hours are noted as being limited, often scheduled between 8 AM and 4 PM. The facility also contains old and outdated equipment, which is frequently broken and not repaired in a timely manner.
