  Got turned around at the door because they don’t do day passes. Powdersville Y said this too. What sense does this make? How do you expect people to check out your gym and see if they like it? Not to mention my case where I’m home for holidays. I think “You have to be with a member” is a sorry answer. I think “We’re being careful because of covid” is a sorry answer for things like this. Another typical upstate SC YMCA with bogus policies and unrealistic expectations. .........from this point forward is my response to the owner comment...I see your generic answer that has no basis to true customer service. You say you put your members first, but you treat potential members like this. You should be marketing to attract new members, unless of course all you want to impress is existing members. I’m a potential member that you just lost! I also challenge you to call all the gyms in the upstate SC area and find me another one that doesn’t allow guests to pay for a day pass. I dare you to find one. I’ll wait....... you can’t find it! It simply bad business. I travel for a living and use day passes a lot. Your policy disables for people like me. Working class people don’t have time to hunt down a member and tag along, especially travelers like myself! Venice Florida Ymca allows 3 visits a year and then $10 per visit after that. You can’t do people like this and expect decent reviews. It’s simply bad business! My mother and my wife who is here most of the time were going to join, which is one of the reasons I came was to get info. Don’t worry about it now!

  Thank you for your feedback. As an organization that strives to serve our members, we do not offer day passes unless the guest is with a member.

  Very comfortable atmosphere , friendliness from the moment you enter the doors. Amazing new pool, which is heated. Nice clean workout stations , treadmills, ellipticals, stair climber, stationary exercise bikes, etc... also has day care for kids 8 and under while you workout. Along with many options to better yourself, with uplifting staff getting fit is so much enjoyable. 🤗. They have much to offer even summer camp for kids and young adults. Pickens YMCA is a fabulous place to join and be part of more than a work out

  My vehicle has been hit twice in their parking lot. The second time they had the lady's picture on camera, but wouldn't give her name to the Highway Patrol. She is a member and left the scene of an accident, after telling a witness she was going to look for the owner. Then she took off. Low class.
