The DeLand Family YMCA is a huge, immaculate, and well-kept facility with a nice variety of equipment. It offers great amenities including free weights, old school and new school weight machines, plenty of stair climbers and treadmills, basketball courts, a sauna, showers, group classes, and two pools. It is an awesome place to work out, swim, and play ball. However, the space can become very crowded and distracting on weeknights before 8pm, when it is shared with many teenage volleyball players. Their coaches yell orders, which can make it hard to stay focused outside the free weight section. The pools can also be difficult to access, often occupied by swim teams or members lap swimming for long periods. On occasion, staff demeanor at the pool has been described as nasty and bullying. The facility is much quieter and more enjoyable on weekends.
