Lake Norman Family Branch YMCA

Fantastic experience: I LOVE THIS YMCA... VERY FAMILY FRIENDLY THE STAFF ARE AWESOME AND THE CHILDCARE IS TOO... I WOULD RECOMEND THIS Y TO ANYONE.... MY DAUGHTER LOVES THE CHILDCARE TEACHERS AND THE OTHER KIDS... VERY GODLY PEOPLE ...

Fantastic experience: Love this place for open water swimming on spring and summer season because this is only place to swim in charlotte area with the wonderful guard and a good price $10 per session on Saturday.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed Sun Rise Yoga this summer. I had to go back to work-school and I have found another activity yet. Until then I'm enjoying the suana. You haven't lived until you have used one.

Fantastic experience: Mary works at the front check in and she is Fantastic. She is genuinely friendly and I don’t know how she remembers everyone’s names but she does. She greets everyone by name when they walk in, even if it’s 6am. Just posted this to say Mary is great!!

Fantastic experience: Y classes have a great variety with content & teachers. Every staff member greets you when you arrive or just walking around. If you are new, they help you find what you need. I like how the instructors introduce themselves. They are encouraging & always say, “listen to your body; do what you can do!” They are motivating & make me want to come back. I am always happy to go every day.

Fantastic experience: Great scenic view area in rear with stationary bikes to ride while enjoying the view. Outdoor pool has lots of room on the outside for events and seating. Staff is great and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Great view of lake

Fantastic experience: Nice, clean and organized.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly director and staff. Lovely facility!

Positive experience: This message is especially for management. Staff and service are absolutely amazing. Thanks for that. But every my swim pool session I see people who puts off their clothes/shoes right in pool area and no shower before. Definitely this is not appropriate behavior. I believe that most of pool visitors agree with me. This is not hygienic. Dear management, please set the rule "no shower - no swimming" and the pool area is not dressing room. Thanks

Fantastic experience: One of the best places to go. The swimming lessons for kids is worth it. Very attentive teachers! My granddaughter loves it! Go!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful facility, ultra-friendly staff and authentic community. Been going to the YMCA for about 5 years now and loving every minute of it. The indoor/outdoor pool is fantastic and they even have a beachfront that members can enjoy (with a huge inflatable slide and obstacle course). Workout equipment is new and spaced out comfortably. It's a close-knit community and there's always familiar faces everytime you go. Kids program is second-to-none, as well. Been taking my son to the YMCA for 3 years now. He loves his teachers, his classmates and all of the activities they do. They teach Christian values, as well, which is such a breath of fresh air in today's world. Highly recommend everything about this place!

Fantastic experience: I LOVE my deep water exercise classes! Please consider adding 1 class each workday like it was before the pandemic. I can hardly wait for those summer outdoor classes.

Fantastic experience: Love this branch me and family go ever Saturday

Fantastic experience: My number one spot to get a lift in before work or after work. Not that much traffic, and an amazing staff. My new favorite gym in Cornelius. The only disappointing heart are the closing times, they close relatively early and open a little bit later. Not at 24-hour gym, however the southern hospitality of Staff is amazing and more family friendly.

Fantastic experience: Best Ymca in the Charlotte area. Great facilities, awesome teachers, outdoor and indoor pools, outstanding!

Fantastic experience: Great place for summer camps. The staff is very friendly and great with kids. Our kiddo has been going there for years.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful location. Large facility.

Fantastic experience: Very helpful and professional staff, and a very nice and friendly environment. It was my first time there and I'm definitely coming back. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Love this church. Just entered today!

Fantastic experience: Always a good experience. Friendly, caring and helpful staff❤

Fantastic experience: Love this church. Just entered today!

Fantastic experience: The staff are always friendly and helpful. The facility has lots of equipment and class options.

Fantastic experience: My review is only for the lake access, not for the gym or workout facility. I saw on Instagram they have lake access on Saturdays from 11am-4pm so I came today to check it out. My membership is at the Dowd YMCA in Charlotte but I had no problem visiting this location! If you drive to the left past the main building, you'll see the lake access area and there is a small parking lot where you can park. There is a covered pavilion with picnic tables so you can bring a picnic lunch. There are also bathrooms and dressing rooms available for changing. Nothing fancy but it's nice that they are there! There is a small cove area where you can kayak, canoe, stand up paddle, or play on two inflatable climbing things in the water. They require everyone to wear a life vest which they can supply if you don't have your own. There was no cost to use any of the equipment! On a crowded day they ask you to limit the time you have the equipment to an hour, but on a slow day they don't care how long you use it. For the swimmers and kids, every hour they call everyone out of the water for 15 minutes, but kayakers can stay in the water. There are also plenty of lifeguards on duty. I counted at least 7. They station 2 lifeguards in kayaks at each of the inflatable things to watch the kids from both sides. One lifeguard stands on the dock and watches the kayakers in the cove. They even have a lifeguard ski boat that they send out to watch the kayakers who paddle outside of the cove. I felt very safe when I was there! This is definitely an activity place and not a beach for laying out and tanning. (Lake access is during the summer months, first day was mid-June 2020, Saturdays 11am-4pm)

Fantastic experience: Very nice facility. Went for the drive-in and it was great!

Fantastic experience: The front desk knows my name! Love they say hello cheerfully even on cold 6am mornings!

Fantastic experience: Great renovations. Had a terrific workout this am. Very friendly folks.

Fantastic experience: Every one here was so friendly. Took a cycle class with Seth and he was Awesome!!

Fantastic experience: Yoga class was good and easy to follow.

Fantastic experience: Yoga class selection is great, especially if you can go during the day. The view of the lake is perfect!

Fantastic experience: Good variety of equipment. A lot of programs for members. Inside pool and lake front usage during summer. Plus! The employees are extremely kind and funny. Just moved here and this place has already made me feel like I’m at home!

Fantastic experience: Looking forward to the annual polar plunge!

Fantastic experience: Great place. Has everything. Great camp for kids

Fantastic experience: I love this Y! It isn't fancy but it's got everything you need. No towel service. Yes great front desk staff who will remember your name and welcome you in. ♡ Great for a quick workout.

Fantastic experience: We've been going here over a year now and have had a wonderful experience. The child watch is excellent. I've always felt more than comfortable leaving my kids with any of the people working in the child watch. They really are fantastic. I enjoy the fitness classes at this location as well.

Fantastic experience: A great place to relax and get a good workout at the same time

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy this YMCA. The people at the front desk are always so kind and friendly. I really like the pool area, it's my favorite part of the YMCA!

Fantastic experience: Great facility for all sports. Weight room and basketball courts are really nice!

Fantastic experience: For a family in need of after school programs, day care, a workout center, or summer camp options there is no better place to associate with. Youth sports programs are plentiful, the lake location provides access to lake activities, and the values focus of YMCA make for a welcoming place.

Fantastic experience: YMCA is always clean and people are always friendly. Might just be the nature of Davidson but it really does deserve the stars.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing and clean facility! The staff there are really friendly and even gave me a tour of the place. My husband has been going here for months, but I just recently went today. I enjoyed the quiet workout area and the fact that while I’m running/walking I can see the lake. They have all kinds of added amenities unlike other YMCA’s since it’s on the lake. You can rent (included in membership) canoes, paddle boards and kayaks. They have a volleyball net, water trampoline and water slide. Plus, a great place to eat lunch outside! What a family friendly environment!

Fantastic experience: greatest YMCA in Mecklenburg county!!!...Superior staff...incredible yoga instructors ...best equipment to work on out...best yoga work out center in NC!!...amazing lake facilty...i love this Y!!!

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout. Family friendly, great staff, and inclusive of everyone. They offer a variety of group fitness classes which I personally love. In addition, with your membership you can also go to any YMCA in the greater Charlotte area.

Fantastic experience: One of the few Y's in the country that has its own Lake access. My family and I practically live here.

Fantastic experience: Great gym for everyone, especially families. The staff is friendly and helpful. And it is very clean.

Fantastic experience: Just started a week ago and have loved every minute of it. From the relaxing yoga classes to the fun high intensity fitness classes it's everything I've needed. I'm a moron when it comes to fitness but that's ok! They offer a free health consultation to guide you on what is best for you and show you how to do all the exercise equipment. I Love it here! Best choice I've made for myself in years.

Fantastic experience: Camp Counselor Koda is AWESOME!!! Eric, you blessed our family in a mighty way. Honora Honey, we love you and are praying for you xoxo And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ Colossians 3:23-24

Fantastic experience: I love the engaging staff, children's programs, and group exercise classes- especially those taking advantage of the beautiful views of the lake!

Fantastic experience: Great and clean YMCA with so much to do. Awesome service too.

Fantastic experience: Love the LKN Y. The staff makes you feel like family and the facilities are top notch! Being on the lake makes it one of the most unique Ys in the country. Their after school care is awesome for your elementary school kids and summer camp options are the best in the area (you need to sign up early, it fills up fast! And the only reason I share thos with you is that my kids are older...could be your kid's camp counselors soon!).

Fantastic experience: Love this place...... good variety of classes, great staff & clean facility!

Fantastic experience: I like the LKN YMCA because they have riding bicycles that I can work out with outside of being in a cycle class. This allows me to work at my own pace and on my own schedule, to the tune of my own beat. I love it! There are two workout rooms, one upstairs, and one downstairs that is frequented by the "older" crowed. I was introduced to this room as I was looking for the rowers. They are in this room so that is where I tend to spend half of my time. The room has treadmills and free weights, along with the "older" machines. It's a nice quite place free of the constant dropping of weight on the floor.
