Osher Marin JCC - San Rafael, California

I have done events in this location two times. It has a huge stage area for ceremonies and has a separate reception area with an outside patio. The history inside is absolutely stunning! During the most recent event. The head of security (I wish I remembered his name!) was an angel. Chivalry is not dead! I recommend the JCC for large events as it is a huge event space.

The Marin JCC swim program is awesome! Both my 3 & 4 yr old taking group lessons there. The instructors are very experienced and great with young kids new to swimming and more experienced swimmers improving their skills as well. The pool is indoors so great for all seasons and heated to a very warm temp to make sure the littles don’t get cold! At another outdoor pool we tried previously, my little guy’s lips were blue by the end and he was complaining of being cold and we had to get him a wetsuit! I’ve seen incredible improvement in just a few lessons and we practice at home in our hot tub too. Really really pleased with the quality. We started w/ just 1 day/wk to try it out and now we’re doing 3 days and also getting adult lessons for our nanny! Very happy swimmers and will be doing lessons here for years to come! Thank you JCC swim program!

This is more than just a gym, the people are amazing - staff, trainers, and members. Really welcoming. Facilitaties are clean and updated. The outdoor pool is the perfect temp for lap swimming, indoor pool is warm and inviting, therapeutic. Sauna and steam, even spa and massage.

Friendly staff helped to get me signed in to use the pool as a visiting JCC member from AZ. Pleasant outdoor pool. Other staff upstairs friendly as well. Other members were very helpful as well. Very happy camper here!

Friendly welcoming and commited to mask wearing and vaccine checking. So happy that this community values each other to ask for all to look out for one another. Love this place

Kids are here for summer camp. Feels like a community center not just a gym.

They've brilliantly rearranged things so you can get a complete workout outdoors. On the grass surrounding the pool, there are about a half dozen shelters each with one piece of equipment on a platform--bike, recumbent bike, rower, bench and weights...they extended the roof to cover three elliptical trainers and a stretching area. So happy to be able to go outside this winter when COVID is expected to surge
along with flu and RSV.

I highly recommend the JCC for your mental, physical and spiritual health. I've been a member of Osher Marin JCC for 20 years now. It's an EXCELLENT facility with friendly members, many of whom, I've now become friends. Feels like one big family (and no, I am not Jewish)! I originally joined so I could swim laps in the pool (the best in Marin County). I also use their gym (elipitical and weights) which is also very good as are their personal trainers. The adult dressing room is wonderfully peaceful with private showers and a nice sauna. The place is squeaky clean and well run. The price of membership is more than fair considering ALL that it offers.

Too much chlorine in the kid pool & heated indoor pool. Good for quiet swimming but not really great for raucous kids. The "cafe" has OK premade salads & sandwiches, but nothing vegan. Locker rooms are nice & clean. Plenty of restrooms, including family friendly ones.
