    Very nice and clean swimming pool. A bit more expensive…read morethan I expected but I appreciate that they keep the pool clean and tidy.

    I've been here a couple of times, once for a birthday party and once just for fun, and I honestly…read moredon't understand how this place is so highly recommended. The water slide rules are ridiculous. Kids have to meet a specific height requirement even though the water at the bottom of the slide is only about three feet deep and most kids can easily stand there. My child is short for her age but is in second grade, has been swimming since she was one, and is on a swim team. She was not allowed to go down the slide because she wasn't tall enough, yet her kindergarten friend, who could not swim, was allowed to go down even though they were basically the same height. When I tried to explain that my child is a strong swimmer, the lifeguard wouldn't budge and made her walk all the way back down the stairs in what felt like a complete walk of shame. After that, she wanted to swim in the main pool area, which is only about 3.5 feet deep, but there is a posted "no swimming" rule for that pool. Because of that rule, she wanted to go into the deeper water instead, which is only six feet deep. She was told she could not go into the deeper water unless she passed a swim test. However, they then said they could not give her the swim test because the swim instructors were not there. This made absolutely no sense, especially given her swimming ability and the fact that I was right there in the water with her as her parent. We then went to the splash pad. My child, who was three at the time, was told she was too close to the sprayer balls and got in trouble for it, even though the splash pad only has two features total. On top of that, the water was extremely cold. My toddler was shivering the entire time and couldn't even enjoy it because she wasn't allowed to stand under the water spray. That same day, we tried the lazy river. My toddler was holding onto me while we floated together. We went there specifically because the water was warmer, since her lips were literally turning blue in the regular pool. There was nobody else in the lazy river, and we were not being unsafe or disruptive in any way. Despite that, a lifeguard yelled at me for holding onto my child and told us we had to exit the river. At that point, it felt like no matter where we went, the rules were being enforced in a way that discouraged kids from playing rather than focusing on actual safety. The main pool itself is extremely underwhelming. There is one log in the middle, and only one person is allowed on it at a time, which I understand for safety reasons, but it is the only feature in the pool. One child used it the entire time we were there, and the lifeguard yelled at anyone who tried to touch it while allowing that same child to stay on it for nearly two hours. The pool is so shallow that my four-year-old can stand on the bottom, the main pool is so small that with about 6 people in it, it already feels overcrowded. The birthday party setup was just as bad. The party room is not convenient at all, despite what people say. There is no nearby bathroom, and the room itself is freezing cold. The changing rooms are down the water slide stairs and across the pool, but you are not allowed to walk to them in street clothes or shoes, which means you somehow have to change before you can even access the changing rooms. There are bathrooms upstairs, but they are nowhere near the party rooms and require walking through a maze of hallways. You freeze the entire way because you are either in a bathing suit or wet from the pool, and these bathrooms are just standard stalls, not actual changing rooms or showers. Everyone at the party complained about how far the bathrooms were from the party room. There are no changing rooms or showers near the party space, and the only real changing rooms are in the pool area, which you cannot access without already being changed. The entire setup is poorly designed and incredibly inconvenient. Overall, the rules feel inconsistent and overly strict, the layout is terrible, and the experience was frustrating for both kids and adults. Nobody in our group enjoyed it, and I would not recommend this place to others.

    00000 stars!! Well you lost this family of 3...! Cancelled- hope you all get treated the way you…read moretreated us and your other members, like crap. I'm honestly pretty upset with how Lifetime as a brand has changed. Customer service? Gone. The feeling of inclusivity? Gone. It's like they no longer care about their members. I get that they're saving some money by not being open 24/7, but it's still a huge letdown. We've tried the Canton location multiple times, but there's always something broken or out of order. So we went to the Troy location, only to find that our family membership doesn't work here--only Novi and Canton. After upgrading, my son, who loves basketball, was disappointed to see that half the courts are now taken over by pickleball. Now they're even getting rid of basketball courts altogether. When I asked, I was told that "basketball doesn't make us money." Isn't that why we're paying $275 a month for a family membership? Today, after upgrading, we got kicked off the basketball court within an hour because of some family event. Apparently, they have arts and crafts tables in the gym on Saturdays. We were told we could come back after 8pm, but why did we drive 55 minutes from Ann Arbor for that? There's other space they could've used, but I'm guessing that's being rented out for more money, while the members are pushed aside for things like pickleball. Honestly, the Las Vegas locations are great, but the Michigan ones are a mess. I've been harassed since day one at Canton. It's frustrating because, just like 24-Hour Fitness, Lifetime is drifting away from what made it great--caring about the members. Eventually, I think they'll learn, especially when they start closing down locations, just like 24-Hour did. I just hope they realize that the people--the members--are what keeps their revenue flowing. Plus spend some money on this club first, everything is old and falling apart..... Maybe one day, pickleball will fade out like racquetball did. But until then, here's an idea: Troy could convert those racquetball courts into basketball courts. That would actually make sense!

    I've been a member at Life Time Fitness Troy since 2002, and I've never been this disappointed…read more They are completely getting rid of the basketball courts and replacing them with pickleball. First they took one court away, and now they're taking BOTH courts starting April 19. Basketball has always been one of the main reasons people come here, and now it feels like that doesn't matter at all. Instead, pickleball is taking over the entire space with prime-time hours--6-9:30 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays and 6-9 PM on other days--basically making it impossible for anyone to play basketball after work. On top of that, the courts were never even taken care of properly. The basketball floors are rarely cleaned, and the wood clearly needs to be polished. For a gym charging around $150 a month, you would expect much better maintenance, but it feels like they never cared about the basketball side at all. Another issue is the hours. The basketball courts close at 11 PM Monday through Thursday, and the entire club closes at 11 PM on Fridays--which is crazy considering most locations stay open later. This is the only club I know closing that early on a Friday. After over 20 years of being a loyal member, it feels like long-time members are being pushed aside. The gym might look nice, but taking away something this important--and not even maintaining it properly while it was there--completely ruins the experience.
