Really nice, solid gym with recent upgrades. Has gotten crowded in 2025. Did they overdo the membership in January? Hope it will calm down. Has gotten harder to find free equipment lately.
Update 2026. Like the gym a lot. But dang it’s so busy after work and on weekends. Maybe pause the new memeberships?
