Yelp.com Review - by Timothy M.

5.0 of 5 stars. I've got to give this place a shout-out. I've tried many gyms over the years, and they've all annoyed me in different ways. Bally's just flat out sucks, and their locations are inconvenient. XSport…

1.0 of 5 stars. This place sucks. The Executive Director is clueless and the housing coordinator needs to be fired. Lake View YMCA

Yelp.com Review - by Hollie S.

5.0 of 5 stars. For the past month or so I've been battling depression, stress, lethargy, worry and, mostly as a result, sleeplessness. What changed? Oh, I'd decided going to the gym was too much of a hassle. Oh, the…

4.0 of 5 stars. Love it. Can't say enough good things about it. All the staff is great and the ladies in the Mazing Kids Center are great. I trust them w/o a doubt with my 2 year old son. The only thing that I…

5.0 of 5 stars. Forgive me my transgressions, Lakeview YMCA. I am fat and slovenly. Lakeview YMCA opened Its' arms and held me against Its' ample bossom - into which I wept both tears of joy and sorrow - and just…

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a fine place to workout. Nothing fancy, enough cardio machines, a nice, private stretching room with free weights in the ladies' locker room. A slight problem with mold/mildew in the hallway…

2.0 of 5 stars. This place is surprisingly clean, stocked with new equipment and air conditioned for a YMCA. It's probably big enough for anything you need, but it loses big points for convenience. First, forget…

Yelp.com Review - by Jay D.

2.0 of 5 stars. So I have no money and lived in the Lakeview area, and I work out like a fiend. For the price, comparatively, this is THE option, because the place had a pool I could swim in before work. But when i…

5.0 of 5 stars. My partner and I signed up for this gym at the couples-family price of 69/month. It's only $46 for individuals. I really do not understand why anyone else in the Lakeview/Roscoe Village area would…

4.0 of 5 stars. I'm a YMCA member, and have been for the past 15 months, because it's the YMCA. It's not XSport Fancy Pants or Pretension Power Gym. It doesn't have floor-to-ceiling glass windows that allow…

Seriously the best preschool around!

I love their Kiddie Kollege preschool. My son has been so nurtured by Miss Suzen, that I can't say enough about her. She always has great lesson plans and my son just loves it there!

Good swim class

We took the swim class with our six month old. Not for learning to swim, just get the baby used to the water. It was fun. The teacher could use so prozac though - need to find someone with lots of energy for 8...

4.0 of 5 stars. I feel the need to stand up for my Y based on the other reviews thus far! It is unique, it is fun and it is very much a neighborhood place. A lot of what that means is that it's influenced by the…

4.0 of 5 stars. First, let me give a nod to the trend in public entities that allows domestic partners to have the same rates, etc. as married couples. I know it was made for the gay community, but my fiancee and I…

4.0 of 5 stars. I'm a pretty big fan of this YMCA, I've not had to wait on a piece of equipment since I started going here, and I go around 6-8pm most days. The weight room is small, but I haven't had a problem…

3.0 of 5 stars. I have to give credit to the Y for providing a great low-cost option. A monthly membership here is 1/2 to 1/3 what it would be at other gyms in town, and it's month-to-month so you can cancel any…

Lake View Y is a great family place. My son can participate in the many classes or go to the Amazing Kids daycare, while I enjoy the excerse room or classes of my own. The staff is friendly and caring.
