Merritt Clubs White Marsh

Fantastic experience: Great facilities! I love the sauna and the pool during the summer. They have food and alcohol pool side. They also have great group fitness classes and wellness coaches. Along with personal trainers of course I have used in the past. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The instructors always provide accommodations/modifications if you need something adjusted or lower intensity. I also love their protein shakes.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym. Been a member for around 8 years and use 200+ times a year. Never had any issues.

Fantastic experience: Top tier club right here!

Fantastic experience: Great place ...clean and lots of great equipment. Merritt is best in town.

Fantastic experience: An Amazing place to Exercise.

Fantastic experience: Love that you are open 24 hours and cleanliness of the facility

Fantastic experience: The real hero is the plumber. Water fountain pressure is unmatched. Y'all know what I'm talking about. Sometimes mashing that button into the floor begging for a trickle. This gym's plumber is gold!

Fantastic experience: The facility itself is really nice. Appears clean and the pools are wonderful. The variety of classes they offer for the price is terrific. My only feedback would be in regards to the pool area. depending on what staff are at the pool, sometimes they allow young children to jump and play around in the lap lane, when it is very clear they aren’t swimming laps. For this reason, you aren’t always able to use the lap lane unless you are swimming around kids playing while doing so. I will point out that it just depends on what staff is there. Some staff will always redirect the kids. But this can be frustrating as there is lots of other pool space. But everything else has been a great experience.

Positive experience: Too expensive and they need to hire more help . Pool is the best though

Fantastic experience: Great staff. Beautiful club. Everything I need in one place!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym. Always clean and the staff are friendly. The pool is amazing.

Fantastic experience: I had so much fun taking the mixxxed class!! It was so much fun and I enjoyed the music as well. I hope we have mixxed classes.

Positive experience: If you're looking for a good gym experience, I recommend avoiding the white marsh location I visited at 11 p.m. It was dirty, with most of the treadmills broken, and the locker room looked like a tornado had gone through it. Instead, save your time and check out the Canton location or other gyms in or around the city.

Fantastic experience: This is my everyday gym and it is always clean. The staff is great and the club tries different things to keep people interested.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. Great kids area to drop off kids while working out! Well maintained and fun pools and swim classes. All the equipment is very well maintained, and clean and people working here and working out here are very respectful and pleasant! Locker rooms and sauna are clean and safe. They have a no photo policy in the locker room. Highly recommend. Would not go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: Great experience

Fantastic experience: I love Merritt Clubs at White Marsh. I relocated out of state and was so sad I had to cancel my membership, as they did not have one where I am currently residing. But if I ever go back, I will definitely sign up and become a member again. The gym is so clean, the staff are beyond friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this gym to everyone!!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym

Fantastic experience: A great club. Friendly people, nice equipment, conveniently located and abundantly clean!!

Fantastic experience: This gym is smaller than the Merritt Club in Canton but has some great amenities to offer and can be less crowded, especially if you like an early morning workout. Parking is plentiful and the staff are very friendly and helpful. There is a sauna and showers available in the locker room. They do have a pool that is outdoor, so it is primarily available during the warmer months. There is a cardio theater room, which usually airs movies throughout the day. A HUGE plus for those that need a distraction while running on the treadmill, riding a stationary bike, or on the elliptical.

Fantastic experience: a lot of equipment and good equipment nice staff and great environment

Fantastic experience: Attended a really nice yoga session. Love the cleanliness of the restrooms. The sauna is also a great touch. Overall this is probably one of the best gyms in the area.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful place to workout they have a kid zone area for the little ones !

Fantastic experience: I love Jennifer Brock’s body pump class! I joined Merritt mid December and haven't missed a Friday with her. She keeps you mindful of your form and keeps you motivated to finish .

Fantastic experience: I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Merritt Clubs White Marsh gym - I attended an excellent group exercise class, there was a huge range of machines and lots of space for stretching and open work out. Melissa the manager was very accommodating and kind to invite me to try the facility - thank you Melissa and congratulations on running a great gym

Positive experience: Very versatile place with a whole bunch of equioment of various kinds and makes. Worthwhile of checking out for sure

Fantastic experience: Trunk or treat was really nice, had a great time with my family.

Fantastic experience: Staff is very professional. Gym is very clean atmosphere is set for a great workout.

Positive experience: Overall, it's a good gym with plenty of equipment & classes. Most staff are outgoing & friendly. The biggest downside is that kids regularly take over the lap pool (they have a 2nd pool for kids). While I understand having a space for all, it's supposed to be a fitness center, not a playhouse or community center. Don't plan to renew my membership & it wouldn't be the 1st place I would consider for a membership

Fantastic experience: Super Clean, comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Professional staff. I always walk out of there, feeling like I could lift up the whole building

Fantastic experience: This is great club, very nice outdoor pool during summer time, excellent workout area at upper and lower level

Fantastic experience: Just great,love it for my daughter

Fantastic experience: The best gym and pool ever

Positive experience: Get some towel sections in the bathrooms, also don’t post you’re open 24 hours & we arrive and it’s not open. Inconvenient.

Positive experience: This gym is great if you’re a person who has a family, and are looking for a beginner friendly causal workout environment. The staff is super friendly, and the space is always pretty clean. If you’re someone who’s a more experienced lifter/athlete the space might not be for you. It could really use a turf area, or a designated space for functional training. Some of the equipment is getting a bit dated, and you’d struggle to do any kind of real powerlifting here. The sauna is nice. Usually pretty clean.

Fantastic experience: We had an awesome time, the workers were very helpful, very professional, the bathrooms were clean. Nice experience, I would go again.

Fantastic experience: I love my club, I am grateful and happy to have one in my community. Thanks everyone that makes this possible.

Positive experience: Great place to workout. Clean and the people are friendly.

Positive experience: We enjoyed the night movie, swimming with the refreshing warm pool water & the great weather. It was an awesome family evening outing.

Negative experience: It’s okay there’s not much pretty small and lacking equipment only one that’s worth it is canton

Positive experience: I love this pool most of the time. Lately, however, the pool has been too cold and the staff refuses to adjust the pool temperature to make it comfortable. I've never encountered this problem before now, but I refuse to swim at the Towson location when the White Marsh pool is closed for mostly this reason. And being gaslighted about it doesn't help the club's case. I'm not the only person who feels this way or who has a thermometer of my own.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this gym!

Fantastic experience: Kiersten and the staff are so friendly. I was nervous starting a new gym but everyone is kind and welcoming. The other gym goers are also polite. Such a clean nice gym worth it.

Negative experience: Always equipment clean. people who work there at the front desk are miserable. They always have a sour face. If you don’t like your job go to something else. The staff have a difficult time when it’s time for redeeming points . The workers act like they don’t know what’s going on with the points.

Fantastic experience: This gym is nice, the equipment is new and the locker room is clean. The staff has been nice and helpful when needed.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member here for 9 months and I have nothing but good things to say about this gym. The weight room is massive with plenty of equipment for the serious bodybuilder. There are plenty of cardio machines which means you never have to wait even during peak hours. The staff members are very friendly and always willing to help. The locker rooms, toilets and showers are very clean. They recently made it a 24/7 gym which is extremely convenient for serious gym rats like myself. Would recommend this gym to anyone, beginner or pro.

Negative experience: Becareful before you sign up a membership contract. Once you sign it then there is no way to get out of it. it is strange but they do threaten the customers with collection agency despite of the fact you had requested a cancellation of membership after completing the contract. Hungary for money club.

Fantastic experience: Love the gym. Instructors are really good! Love the classes too! Especially body combat. And Zumba! And body balance. Core will get you! Love Krissy!

Fantastic experience: I appreciate the friendliness of the staff & instructors. They do a great job with cleanliness as well. The variety of the classes is on point.

Fantastic experience: The pool is my family favorite. The place is clean and the staffs are super friendly.

Fantastic experience: This place is awesome!! Can't say enough about it but I really need to get into it tho. Everyone is nice and polite there, and the place is spotless. I love their set up there, it's really nice.

Positive experience: Very nice and clean. Equipment is good. Many choices to pick from. Wish their was a dedicated area for heavy bags

Positive experience: Just paid $150 for 2 people and got a gold membership have not been there consistently but im going to start so far so good Great beautiful place pricy worth it me and my fiance love it just watch the hours. Will let you know if it gets better to put 5 stars. You have to pay a little more than $100 monthly for the membership with discounts for 2 people. $84 just for me and $64 for my fiance plus they give you Guest passes for a week for any of your friends or family as long as YOU are a member. Its like a vacation locally. They give you membership cards. Alot of NICE people with Manners.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend merrit clubs. Love that they have a kids club that my son enjoys so that I can work out.

Fantastic experience: Just visiting and was able to get a guest pass for a few days to use the swimming pool. What a beautiful facility! Gorgeous pools, loved the lap pool, fitness facility looks fabulous- clean, great equipment, spacious! If I lived here, I would definitely be a Merritt Club member (like my parents who were members at the Towson location for years). This facility beats Towson hands down.

Fantastic experience: This gym is the just cool and fun I love it

Positive experience: I've been a member here about 5 years now...and every year it seems you loose something...first maria ds...no towels at 1 point...not heating the pool when needed..closing pool before 8....and now no alcohol...im a loyal member but there should definitely be a price adjustment for the lost of amenities.

Fantastic experience: This gym is the just cool and fun I love it

Fantastic experience: Pool and Slides were tons of fun! Clean and plenty of space!

Fantastic experience: Bonito lugar para nadar

Negative experience: Wish they would not have changed their hours. 8pm close time is too early. I joined because it was a 24/7 club

Negative experience: Same rate with reduced hours. Should at least offer keying in when they close early.

Negative experience: I am extremely upset at the change of hours. An 8PM close time on weekends is just way too early. I joined this gym when it was 24/7 which is the sole reason I became a member. And considering the price has not gone down it is upsetting. I really hope the hours come back soon or at least be able to key-in after hours or I will be forced to take my business elsewhere.

Fantastic experience: Amber on the pool deck was so helpful and had a lot of patience. Chris was able to answer my membership questions. And everyone at the front desk was friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Love this place

Positive experience: Fun outdoor pool only seating limited

Fantastic experience: Amber on the pool deck was so helpful and had a lot of patience. Chris was able to answer my membership questions. And everyone at the front desk was friendly and welcoming.

Positive experience: My family and I like this gym a lot. We look forward to swimming laps in the summer. It’s unfortunate there are no rules that apply to the lap pool. The lanes are crossed constantly and disregarded by small children. It’s more or less a big kiddie pool. If you cannot be there within certain set hours your screwed.

Fantastic experience: Like the atmosphere in the classes. They really pump you up. Can’t wait until the pool opens

Fantastic experience: Love it. Great pool, clean facility, a lot to offer for the kids.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! I honestly enjoy everything about it, from the time I walk in to the time I leave. There are days where the only thing motivating me to exercise is my excitement to be in the gym itself. Sometimes I don’t do much other than enjoy a free cup of coffee and get a walk in on the treadmill. The friendly service and clean and updated atmosphere make it a nice place to reset your mind.

Fantastic experience: I appreciate the friendliness of the staff & instructors. They do a great job with cleanliness as well. The variety of the classes is on point.

Negative experience: Would love to give a great review as I heard such great things about this place. Signed up for a year and wish I never had. Between the filth and class of people I would not recommend this gym to anyone. I constantly see people with no shoes on, going to and from the bathroom, alerted staff and they have done nothing. Same person every week. The amount of garbage and dirty rags on the floor is unacceptable. People are constantly trying to reserve all the equipment around them to the point you can't use anything. When taking issues to management nothing ever seems to come of it. Rules are clearly posted but no one is enforcing them. I can't wait to go back to Gold's.

Fantastic experience: Great fitness club! Hours and equipment are excellent. Staff is awesome. Always friendly and helpful. Had my first group class today, Power Yoga with Lindsay, and it was perfect. I'm new to yoga and Lindsay kept a solid pace throughout, helping me and anyone else to find our way through without missing a beat with the overall class. I was truly impressed.

Fantastic experience: Been a member for several years, the staff is always friendly and the facility is always clean.

Fantastic experience: This club is the best! The staff is professional, fitness classes are abundant & and overall great sense of community. I would recommend this location to anyone. They will help you with your fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: Clean and beautiful

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality The staffing always polite and helpful. I have been a member for over 4 years and this location is always clean. The equipment is always working and they always have events and keep the members updated about everything.

Fantastic experience: A great gym always plenty of things to do. The daycare is also quite nice and has plenty to do for the little ones. The pools are also great.

Fantastic experience: Very clean facility. Great variety of equipment and classes. Awesome personal trainers. My kids love the pool amd the water slides.

Fantastic experience: I love the classes the instructors are amazin my favorites are the aqua instructors Brian Rice and Butchie lynch then the group with Andres and krissy and adontae are really great too the staff is great very loving community very supportive I disparately need I struggle with workin out but the support here is amazing I love it

Fantastic experience: The staff is always attentive (willing to help) and friendly. All areas including the restroom are kept clean. And the pool is my fav! Spacious and available! Looking forward to trying their food when my schedule allows. Thank you Merritt

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym. Staff friendly and helpful. Work with Andrew a great trainer. Space is open and equipment well maintained

Fantastic experience: Amazing guest experience and friendly staff. Great prices on their food and drinks by the pool.

Fantastic experience: Great Job...Merritt Clubs White Marsh Clean place to work out. Clean bathroom, class rooms, ample of sanitizing stations, Restricted group exercise participant limits. Overall... Merritt Clubs White Marsh did a good job during pandemic

Fantastic experience: I know the price is steep especially if you are used to the whole $10 a month thing but it is worth it! I actually really love coming to this gym. It's the first time I haven't felt judged coming to the gym. Me and my son come together. Brian Rice that teaches aqua zumba makes you feel so included and makes you want to come back. 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Rare to find a pool around with dedicated swimming laps marked off at all times. Much appreciated!

Fantastic experience: Pretty cool had a really nice time the pizza was delicious and the water slide was cool and scary but fun the thrill fun fun fun fun

Fantastic experience: My family and I love to enjoy Merritt year round. In the summer the pool is great. Kids zone amazing and staff so welcoming. Would definitely recommend Merritt to anyone !

Fantastic experience: Cool place. Very clean gym. Expensive but it's definitely a higher quality experience

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I joined one month ago and this gym is fabulous. It’s sparking clean, the staff is wonderful, and the service is great. There’s nothing to complain about. This is definitely the best gym in town. 10/10 recommend.

Positive experience: This gym is probably the cleanest gym that I have ever trained at. The staff stays on top of it and it shows. I would recommend updating the equipment as there are many different machines out there that members could benefit from. Additionally, there are spaces such as the cardio theater room that be used as a TRX + training room or a small group training room. Moving the TRX contraption would allow room for additional equipment.

Fantastic experience: Cleanest gym

Fantastic experience: I LOVE THIS PLACE

Fantastic experience: Yoga classes with Susan are excellent and the club in general is pretty fantastic

Positive experience: Club is awesome, but having some drunk dude smoking a cig right outside of the entrance was kind of disappointing. I'm surprised there are no smoking signs up around the club, especially with the amount of fitness minded people and kids that are here.

Fantastic experience: Awesome

Fantastic experience: Clean gym and friendly staff. Totally worth the membership fee!

Negative experience: Good evening! I have several unaddressed concerns, if I may. I am displeased that our monthly rate has remained the same but: 1. Merrit gym hours have been reduced for many months now. To hear that "Oh, we are working to restore our normal operations is a woefully inadequate refrain, again esp after hearing this for months and months. Other gyms are indeed back to 24/7. 2. Reduced amenities, such as no towel service, less equipment available, again for many months... 3. Merrit employees (while friendly and cordial) spray down every piece of equipment starting around 915pm (closing time 10pm) with a phenol disenfectant. Often times, they spray/soak the equipment right next to the peice of equipment that you are using, and then walk away. This is a poor practice, as this phenol spray/odor lingers, is a lung irritant, and this mist should NOT be inhaled. In fact, when employees spraying down equipment in one side of the gym, I can smell the noxoius fumes way on the other side. A few times, the air was so saturated with phenol disenfectant, I could smell it on my mask 2 days later. When I questioned the employees on the timeliness of this practice, they advised "Well, we do it now close to closing time, otherwise we would have to shut down the gym 1 hr early to do this. So may I ask, Merrit is prioritizing potential employee overtime over member safety? Sure looks that way, dosent it...? As a RN, I can tell you with all certianty that phenol is corrosive and should not be inhaled, and when doing strenous cardio/aerobic exercise your members are breathing hard and rapidly, doing exactly that! And all the while your staff is spraying/soaking down cardio equipment! This is a most dangerous, undesirable practice I feel. 4. These concerns were illuminated to Merrit via email, to which a lady named DIane replied, and she advised that a manager would reach out to me...This was 12/10/20. We are 2+ months later and still no response. Perhaps the Merrit manager feels that I will just get used to the phenol spray and my lungs wont mind...? And pls dont tell me that "Oh, someone will be reaching out to me soon to address my concerns..." May I say again, politely but firmly, this is woefully inadequate at this point. I am asking you, as the 'concerned' owner, to handle this and show me that I am a valued member! In closing, please remember that Merrit Gyms exist because of the members...It is obvious that you are hemmoraging members....But I remain loyal, I workout 4-5x a week, and pay for my fiance also, who rarely works out anymore. As a former Bally Total Fitness employee of 15+ years, I have seen when can happen when members are mistreated, ignored, and taken for granted. As you can see, even a corporation that had 350+ gyms/affiliates nationwide can disappear when its members are mistreated. In case you are unaware, the last Bally Total Fitness Center closed down about 2 years ago in NYC. You have my name, I am quite certain that you can reach out to me. Thank you for your time Sir.

Fantastic experience: I joined one month ago and this gym is fabulous. It’s sparking clean, the staff is wonderful, and the service is great. There’s nothing to complain about. This is definitely the best gym in town. 10/10 recommend.
