Marshfield Clinic Health System YMCA

Positive experience: Overall great place. But during the summer they have these summer groups. They take up the whole basketball court when I’m trying to play in the morning. And they are very loud for the old people.

Positive experience: Very great place to go work out. The downstairs weight room has most of the equipment you need for a great workout, well organized. The upstairs machines and indoor track are also a valuable asset. Basketball courts have finally become 24/7 which is wonderful. The only thing left to become 24/7 is the weight room (the risk of injury reason doesn't make sense, the gym has 75lb dumbbells upstairs in the 24/7 access area, which can definitely seriously injure you if dropped). Shout out to the cleaning crew that is there nighty. They make the gym spotless and consistently do excellent work. Shout out to the front desk people who do a great job being positive and friendly to the guests and members. My biggest issue with the gym is the forgotten men's locker room. The carpets in there (yuck) haven't been replaced ever. The tile, lockers, and showers are all original too. Although again, the staff do their best to clean the area, the drainage pipes smell like a sewer simply due to age. Additionally, the men's sauna wood walls are completely worn down with sweat. It took 2+ months to get a broken heater replaced, which is unacceptable. If the locker room was redone and brought at least to the early 2000s, it would be a huge step forward.

Positive experience: The Marshfield YMCA is great overall. It's always cleanly and the staff crew are exceptional at their jobs. The gymnasium, track, upstairs cardio room, and downstairs weight room are filled with just what one needs to obtain whatever health and/or physique goals they may have. However... (not to be a Karen but..) it is extremely upsetting to not only me but others I know who attend this YMCA that the weight room has set hours and is not open 24 hours. The hours I work are sporadic at times and it's disappointing when I want to do a certain lift after work and cannot because the equipment required is not accessible. Why can't we sign a piece of paper that says, hey, I know the risk of becoming injured in the weight room and take full responsibility if it happens to me. On top of this, the staffed hours are probably the worst I have ever seen at any YMCA. Summer hours on the weekend are Saturday 0700-1300 and on Sunday 0800-1300. Seriously? Look at any other YMCA's staffed hours during the summer and winter. They are MUCH more accommodatable than the Marshfield location. Aside from the horrendous hours the YMCA is, like I said, great overall. If you need the weight room for certain lifts and you have a work schedule that fits within their limited hours I would highly recommend this gym to you. If not, I would go somewhere else and save yourself the constant disappointment and sense of feeling rushed.
