- SSStevenNov 5, 20252.0We went to take a tour of this YMCA location because we were interested in the family membership. The staff were friendly and showed us around, but the facilities were quite worn down and the clientele was mostly a very old crowd. Which isn’t inherently a bad thing, but the vibes were dead. Absolutely no atmosphere at all. Once again, nice staff, but we are hesitating on joining because this place needs a re-vamp. Also, it’s strange that they keep your drivers licenses during the tour. We had to wait for them to be handed back.
- GBGeorge BeelenJul 30, 20255.0Clean and well staffed.
- JBJyoti BehuraJul 28, 20251.0Extremely terrible place for summer camp. Their refund policy is simply the worst. What's worse is their response to my inquiry for a refund. When I asked about the cancellation policy, they responded with "no refunds within 2 weeks" but more importantly jumped to the conclusion that my daughter will not be attending the camp by adding "we will notify the administrator that your daughter will not be attending the camp"! We will make sure that we will attend this camp we paid for, but will never ever...I mean never ever...attend any YMCA camps or events.

- HRHelen RadfordAug 21, 20194.0The Kirkwood Y provides a welcoming environment for people of all ages. They offer a variety of classes. There is not a lot of parking, so it's good to arrive early.
