★★★★★Patrick Fee

They have a great community. A wonderful pool and all the tools you need to get back in shape. And definitely reasonably priced for all the options they offer. After 3 months I have now lost 30 lbs. Thank you, Burlington YMCA!

★★★Matt Whitt

Its ok, its just outdated and too small all the way around, the galesburg one will spoil u, has sauna, way bigger weight room plus 2 other smaller ones but staff is really nice

★★★★Anthony Franklin

Well I stopped in to see what this YMCA has, and was pleasantly surprised by the facility. It hgymswo gyms and dedicated martial arts section, three gyms, one dedicated to machines, one hybrid, and one to free weights. They have two racquetball courts and a badminton court, a spin class room. A decent pool with ADA assistance. The locker room is nice as well. They have daycare available as well. They have a lot of choices for activities. It's really well maintained and staffed.

$15 for a day pass (every other y is 6-9$), equipment has absolutely no organization, took us 15 minutes to get signed in, and you have to pay an extra fee just to use a sauna that every other y offers for free! Worst ymca I’ve ever been to.

Rented the Y camp for a birthday party in October, when you can’t swim or utilize half of the things they offer for an exuberant price! I know this is in the country but when you’re trying to utilize a kitchen and you find this in every drawer it’s kind of disgusting! I cleaned but perhaps in the fall months when you cannot utilize everything maybe you should offer a lower your price!! Especially when you have to clean up after mice!
