The Lakewood Ranch YMCA it self is great. This is about the people that go there. I have been going to the Lakewood Ranch YMCA for about 6 years now. This year alone my car has been hit 3 times. The dent and dings are not small. My prior car was hit at least 3 times before I traded it in. The YMCA doesn't want to do anything about it. They don't want to post signs or a notice on their bulletin board to please show respect for other people's property.

I wanted to compliment the Director and counselors (and childcare staff) at the Lakewood Ranch Brand YMCA. Having been both a camp counselor and camp director myself, I am extremely impressed with the way that the camps are run.
I have a 13-year-old daughter who has an attended the half day basketball and volleyball camp. She is going to attend the soccer camp next week. Her basketball Camp began when all the other camps started as well. Despite multiple types of camps and many children, campers were quickly grouped and joined with their counselors and locations.
I have been inside the center while camp is in session, and I am extremely impressed by the way communication works between staff members. Walkie talkies are constantly being used, and students are being counted and accounted for. I appreciate that the pool is used exclusively for campers during the day, to maintain camper safety. All counselors seem genuinely happy to be with their campers, and everything is extremely orderly. Counselors are bright and energetic in the morning at check in.
My daughter’s counselor Austin comes to check her out in the afternoon and always had a positive attitude and great things to say about her. He is personable and we have seen him outside of camp hours and he maintains the same composure and energy. I feel extremely safe allowing my children to attend camps and activities here.
We are also extremely impressed with the childcare center. I have a 2 yr old that has been attending the Y for around 6 months. I drop her off with confidence to three knowledgeable, caring and friendly staff members. She is always happy at pick up and excited to attend.
Prior to finding the Y, we were at LA Fitness, where we were extremely unhappy. On one occasion, the childcare supervisor allowed her to play for an unknown length of time in the bathroom. We picked her up soaking wet, with no explanation as to what happened. We still don’t know if she was playing in the toilet or the sink. Needless to say, we canceled our LA Fitness membership that evening.
We are so thrilled to have found the YMCA and are proud to be a part of it.

Terrific instructors who tell you how to do the exercise so you don't get injured. Wide variety of classes, including the pool, at convenient times. Facility is clean. The staff is helpful and friendly. Great senior activities too. I love the informative Tuesday lunch & learns.

My husband and I joined the Y at LWR almost two years ago. We appreciate the wide variety of classes that are appropriate for participants of varying physical and experience levels. Our trainers have also been excellent. It’s a positive, clean and modern facility.

This place is in need of renovation and updating so bad! The bathrooms and showers are gross. We won’t be back unfortunately. Disappointing for such a beautiful area, can’t believe this place hasn’t been maintained. I grew up going to the Y in north Florida, it was so beautiful, clean. They even had a water slide and splash pad for the kids. This one has nothing to offer.
