★★★★★Dave DiLena

Always great. What the sports programs lack in organization and scheduling they make up for in enthusiasm! Recently it's been getting better. My only complaint is with the patrons in the parking lot. The entrance is a one way forced right! Stop driving the wrong way down the center aisle.

★★★★★Jeff Cook

Great place to workout and shower will on the road. $10 per person for a day great deal compared to other gyms.

Emailed bucksport ymca 3 times and called twice trying to sign my kids up for sports over a 3 week period and couldn’t get a response until the 3rd time I called the Ellsworth ymca and by then told me it was too late. What a disgraceful way to run a business for kids sports. Miss when Jaime emery used to run the rec dept. it never had these issues. Great way for them to take money from schools then force kids out of sports.

★★★★Bill MacDonald

Great place to work out. Very friendly people. No judgment. Lots of programs. I wish the locker rooms were a little bit more up-to-date but they are functional and reasonably clean.

★★★★★Tania Murphy

Popped in this morning for shower due to the power loss in town. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the lady's name at the desk when I signed in at 747a but SHE IS FABULOUS! Very friendly, she let me babble on about my new house were moving into in January! She's really great! Thank you all for offering that service!!
