That's a great place to enjoy our time. It's spotless and organized, with friendly and helpful staff. Big parking lot including electric charger. Cover with solar panel. So, environmental helpful. You can d many gases here with your friends, or you have a chance to make new friends here. They are lovely people. Buddy Building, swing pool, basketball, racket ball, tennis, and other sports that you might be interested in. So, make sure to come over there and try at least one time. They also have child care all day long. 8:30 am to 8:30 pm. It's imaging.

Im paying 8x the price of a Planet Fitness membership to be a member here - so I expected adequate AC and ventilation when Im trying to use the already ancient treadmills. Instead, the treadmill area gets ridiculously hot. Really disappointed so far with the actual gym facilities, might give it another month but probably going to cancel soon. The outdoor courts are nice and the staff are nice too, but honestly thats it. The pools are filled with tons of kids all day because of a summer camp they run, the hot tub reeks of chlorine just walking by it (sign of chemical imbalance) and is always full anyway. I really just wanted a nice, usable gym and I find myself missing Planet Fitness. For paying $190 a month as a couple plus a $495 initiation fee I definitely expected more. Not trying to be rude - just my honest feelings.

Bottom line: If you charge people premium fees then you should be providing a premium product/service. Upgrade your ventilation, turn up the AC, upgrade your gym equipment, fix the hot tub chemicals. This all should be easily affordable since you are charging 8x what other standard gyms charge for membership.

I came in for a tour after driving by this place for months now. I was greeted by very friendly staff and given a tour by the manager. He was thorough, answered all my questions, and was very kind.
Now, I wanted to love this place, but it's a hard one. The pool, sauna, and steam room was a pleasant surprise. I love the outdoor area and the views are incredible!
However, I was unimpressed (to say the least) with the equipment and the decor. They have a wide variety of equipment, but like the interior design was unpleasantly outdated. You can say that it's a gym, and as long as you can get a workout in, it shouldn't matter. But for the membership price, this place could do ALOT more and I really hope they do. I could see this being a great athletic club, especially since there aren't many in the area.
If or when they make the much needed upgrades, I'd gladly become a member.

This place is always clean, machines, treadmills and weights are always ready to be used.
Staff that i have encountered have all been super nice, ready to assist with any issues and always meet you with a smile.

Love this place!!!

Lakeridge does a good job of keeping activities scheduled nicely and maintains to the equipment and property very well. I like to do yoga during the week and bring the kids to play in the pool. This isn't a 24 hour meat market, this is a lot of career and retired people FYI.

(Lenny and Billy's) Lakeridge Athletic Judo Club is Awesome.
We Joined this club a couple years ago, and have loved everything it has to offer, Then we found out it had a JUDO Club for my little 7 year old Girl. She has been attending there program for 3.5 months now, and as of yesterday achieved her Yellow striped White belt.

"There's an amazing judo instructor who taught me all about judo, and I want to tell everyone how awesome they are! When I started judo, I was a little nervous, but the instructor made me feel super comfortable right away. They are really nice and always have a big smile on their face.

The instructor is really good at explaining everything in a way that even kids like me can understand. They use fun games and exercises to teach us different judo moves, and it's always so exciting to learn something new. They are patient and always make sure we feel safe and confident when practicing.

What I love most about this instructor is how much fun they make the classes. We play games, do partner drills, and even have little competitions. They also give us high-fives and pats on the head when we do a good job, and it makes me feel proud of myself.

They have a special way of making all of us feel important. Even though there are other kids in the class, the instructor always takes the time to help me individually. They show me how to do things step by step and cheer me on when I get it right.

I also like that our instructor teaches us about respect and being kind to each other. They remind us to help our training partners and to use our judo moves only for self-defense, never to hurt others. It makes me feel good to know that judo is not just about fighting, but also about being a good person.

I'm really lucky to have such an amazing judo instructor. They make every class so much fun, and I always leave excited for the next one. If you're a kid like me and want to learn judo, I promise you'll have a great time with These instructors. They're the best!"

Lakeridge Athletic Club is so much more than a typical athletic club or gym. Thanks to the owners and friendly staff and members, it is a wonderful community. My husband and I joined a year ago shortly after we moved to the area. We love the gorgeous pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam rooms. The gym itself may not be state of the art, but the equipment is always clean and is everything you need for a good workout. The kid zone is a blessing for any busy parent. The daycare staff are attentive and genuinely enjoy the kids. My son begs to go to the “school gym”. Nothing like having a toddler give you no excuses to visit the gym. Oh, and you throw in some good wine and beer you can purchase to enjoy onsite—it doesn’t get much better than this. Life would not be the same without LAC. I couldn’t recommend it more.
