This is the cleanest gym I have ever been in! The equipment is up to date, well taken care of and there is plenty of it. There is a wide variety of classes run by very well-trained instructors who will get you moving in the right direction! There are personal trainers as well as a women's only section. The people (employees and members) at this gym are second to none! They are very welcoming and encouraging, and they take time to show you around and answer any question(s) you may have. I highly recommend this gym to people of all ages!

I enjoy this gym but it’s definitely not geared towards the working family/mom. They offer child care hours but only three hours during the morning between 8am and 11am and that really limits a huge group of working moms.

This review is specifically for the swim school. We have seen tremendous improvement in both of our children since starting here at Vanderbilt. They’re learning real skills, having fun, pushing themselves to try harder, and learning to really enjoy themselves (safely) in the water. The instructors are exceptionally well trained and well managed. The facilities are….fine. But you’re not coming here for brand new luxury, you’re coming here because it’s a warm welcoming atmosphere where your kids will learn to swim confidently. For that it gets five stars.

I have been swimming at the Vanderbilt Club for many, many years. I have lost count! The structure is a canvas bubble; in the summer the top comes off for an open air environment. In the Fall, Winter and Spring, the bubble is on to keep the heat in and the air temperature comfortable. Before 2020, the owner replaced the opaque canvas wall along the parking lot with with a new one with windows and a double door for increased light and ventilation. There is one heating unit in the facility and it is located over the deep end of the pool. There is a fan in the top center - the peak - on the cement wall side that draws and circulates the air. In the winter months, many of the participants wear neoprene to stay warm. We all have different body temperatures and different comfort levels. The pool water and the hot tub water are both tested frequently and often for the communities' safety. All of our Water Instructors are wonderful! We are blessed to have them! Regarding the windows on the parking lot side. Yes; they do slide open. Some people are comfortable having them open and others are not. Since we are a diverse community, body temperature varies from person to person and some are hot and some are cold. Some of the participants wear neoprene and some do not. There could be a draft if one window is open and the others aren't as the air flow could be drawn to that location depending on the temperature outside. I respect all of the members of our community and the different health challenges we all navigate. Communication with the instructors and members of the classes helps meet the goals and needs of all swimmers. The pool is my happy place!

This club is great, the staff is so welcoming & encouraging. I do aerobics with Deb, just amazing. Have met new friends. Joe C got me on the rowing machine. Tomorrow I am trying workout class. All because of the encouragement of staff. A huge thank you!

During the winter months the ventilation system for the pool is inadequate and the fan does not consistently work. As a person with asthma and trouble breathing the pool chemicals, I requested to crack one window open approx 2" in the back corner of where I take an aqua class for approx 45 minutes in the morning. For the past year and half it half it was understood and the teachers and other class members all knew and took no issue with it. Until today where I was first told it was "about too much heat" being let out and now another email that "it creates fog and a safety issue." This is not a welcoming environment for all unless you are in the "clique." It was a simple accommodation for a very short period of time. Disappointing.

Apart from my issues with the faculty and lackluster management, I would like to praise aqua instructor Britt for her excellent classes, she's extremely deliberate in her class delivery and modifications for all levels.

We love the swim lessons for our children. The ratio of only two children per instructor is great for the kids.

I loved this gym. I was working in the area for 8 months, and have since gone home, but I actually enjoyed going there!

It’s much larger than it looks from the outside. There’s a Womenβ€˜s only workout studio, too. And a pool that is covered in winter.

Yes. Itβ€˜s older, but it’s clean and doesn’t smell!! There was always plenty of equipment to use as well.

The front desk attendants were pleasant and helpful. I also had the best trainer ever - Joe Conti. He was completely understanding about my various physical issues and limitations. His workouts were careful and intuitive, and ranged from working out in the pool to floor exercises and stretches, to using the machines, weights, and tension bands. I cannot speak highly enough of him.

If I lived permanently in the area, this would have been my gym of choice forever. I already miss it!

I only use the pool and it is very disappointing that they allow people to schedule private lessons in the most busy time during the morning lap swimming time. Lap time is first come first served but if you pay extra you get a private lane.
This creates a club within the club of people that pay more to get extra privileges.

Been a member for a little over a year and I love this gym! Staff is very welcoming, plenty of equipment; and it never feels crowded. The only criticism I have is wishing they were open a bit later than 9pm. Other than that, a fantastic gym!

I have been a member for 2 months. What a great surprise. Staff is the best. Super helpful and friendly. I can also say the same for its members. Teachers are knowledgeable and enjoyable (I even take Pilates with Pat whose really supportive and fun). I can say the same for Meghan (spin)and Marissa (yoga). Lot of different classes. The facility is spotless. Best deal ever. Highly recommend. Thanks Sue.

Super friendly and polite! Like when did polite become a thing? Or was it a thing that faded?. ..whoever wants to learn about customer service and work out in a low stress environment that has very clear pricing policies (and is super clean) should check out Vanderbilt. Oh, and it has plenty of weights and machines.

I have been a member of the Vanderbilt club for many satisfying years. It combines every facet one would want in a full service facility. This includes cardio, swimming,weight training and excellent training classes which happy to say more and more are taking and finding out with the women knew all along. Isn’t that always the way. But above all, during this pandemic the owner and staff have done everything humanly possibly in making working out here sanitary, safe and clean. It’s become an oasis in a desert of solitude for many. Thanks to all in providing the best for value all service club in the area. Paul Stakutis.

After living in Massachusetts for 39 years and being a member of the Vanderbilt Club for some 20 years, I moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Big mistake. There are a lot of gyms here but nothing comparable to the Vanderbilt Club's classes, teachers, and friendliness. I have to go to four clubs to get everything Vanderbilt offers and end up paying about five times more! I miss my friends!

A truly Wonderful place to get healthy and stay healthy! I joined August 2015 and I attend aqua aerobics 3 times a week; and Frank’s stretch class twice a week and I’ve never felt better! All of the Staff are super nice, knowledgable and They cater to your needs.
Sue, the owner and Mary, the manager couldn’t be more helpful.

I’ve met so many wonderful people and became friends.
I can’t wait until they open again!
