I'm surprised no one has reviewed Woodside yet!…read more We are in our third year of membership and this is a very special place. It's small enough to be comfortable and feel NOT crowded on most days and offers social events where you can really get to know everyone. Most of the members I've met have kids on the swim team or participate in the tennis, but we enjoy events like Chicken Bingo, Float Night, Book Club and my personal favorite: Flip Flops and Lemon Drops! ( a ladies social evening) The pool has giant, twin twisty tunnel slides that are a hit with all age groups, as well as lap lanes and a kids entrance area. We chose this club because there's no mandatory monthly food service, which we tend not to eat because we are a little picky health-wise. There's just a basic snack bar and you can bring your own food to grill or picnic.

I'm sure if I was here to swim and layout, it would be fantastic but for a swim meet it sucks. There is no parking - you have to park across 13 mile at the school and once you walk to get, you have to walk down this steep walkway. It has a nice pavilion and tennis courts, a cool water slide and a nice play set and well as a wading pool and lap pools. It's just too bad there isn't more shade.

I highly recommend this gym to all of my friends. I'm so glad that they opened an equinox in…read moreMichigan, I really did not like lifetime. I joined when the gym first opened and I think that it was cleaner then. It still is clean and some of the workers work very hard and are always there. However, often times I will find that the bathrooms or showers are dirty. This was usually a problem when I used to go at night but I also noticed it in the morning once. I love that the steam room is very clean and that they close it to clean it. The pools are really clean too. I dislike that instead of opening the door sometimes the valet guys will just stand there talking with one another. I get it they're young but the least they could do is acknowledge you and attempt to open the door. Sometimes the front desk people say goodbye, other times they don't. Overall, the workers are really kind and the people here are really kind. I also don't like how crowded it gets around 5-7pm. I try to avoid that time. I wish they had made the gym multiple floors when they opened it. I feel as though they'll probably have to expand it in the future or open another one. The reason I love coming to this gym is because of the great classes they offer. The app is very helpful and shows classes throughout the day. Linda is an amazing yoga instructor. When I went to lifetime I'd pay for yoga and the gym separately because I didn't like their classes but here the instructors are all great. I also really like Erica. The cycling classes are great too. I had Alie and she made it really fun and the music was really good too!

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.

Very cool (ha) facility and good instruction. I came with a group who needed some filler people,…read morethey rented out all 5 lanes. I believe there is a $50 security deposit, then around $30 per head. Probably more information on their site or by calling but long story short that got us two hours total. Let me tell you, I'm a larger unfit man, and sweeping was physically exhausting. My heart was pounding out of my chest 30 minutes in, and I ended up having to switch out with someone else for more sweeps. This is something I caution you to take seriously if you are not in shape / well conditioned. Curling is physically exerting! I had a hard time learning to get down and slide the stone. That's part of the fun. That said they do have a pusher stick you can use. Being 6' 7" myself and having a lower back problem I used the pusher stick when it was my turn to slide the stone. Don't be shy about using it! Instead of putting one foot on a slider pad (you have gripper covers over your tennis shoes so you can walk the ice), getting down low and pushing off the stick attaches to the stone's handle. Then you just walk up to speed and give it a little shove. Word of working, most wont have this issue but I wear a 14 or 15 mens 4E (extra wide) shoe depending on the make. My default tennis shoes were too big for the grippers to fit over, I had to switch to my backup pair which are thankfully 14's and I was able to just barely able to stretch them over.
