This is my favorite YMCA location. It's small enough to have a personal feeling but large enough to offer all of the services that I'd want. I enjoy the variety of classes that are offered. I'd like to see even more in the late afternoons and evenings once school begins. Weekends classes would also be great to expand! The gym stays fairly clean with towels and disinfectant spray readily available. For the cost, I'm pleased with my membership. read more

This gym is always clean, and they always have fresh towels and cleaner to use when you go to the machines. It is always a pleasant, cool temperature inside, and there is a nice variety of workout classes. The classes have a variety of intensities, and the instructors are usually friendly and welcoming. They are also conscious of different fitness levels. This Y is usually not extremely busy, so I am able to use all of the machines that I want to use. There is a nice hiking trail in the woods that I have been on several times. Just watch out for ticks! They have decent hours, and the complimentary coffee in the morning is a nice touch. read more

Oldham County Family Branch YMCA - Gyms Near Me - Buckner, Kentucky

Finding the YMCA has been the best thing that has happened for me and my family in a really long time. I've been able to put focus towards my physical health, make great friendships, work at a place without having to worry about childcare, enroll my son into a sport he loves, give my children swim lessons to teach them knowledge that will last them a lifetime, the sauna - amazing weight room - fitness classes of all sorts - and so forth are all just additional benefits. The possibilities are endless with the Y in our lives. Being an employee as well, just adds so many positives to being a member and I am so grateful. Definitely a value that has no price tag with all you are able to accomplish in one place. read more

The crowd is a bit older at this branch of the YMCA, so expect more AARP magazines than Shape, more water aerobics classes offered than spin. The facility is nice and the staff is friendly to a fault. I never have a problem getting the equipment that I want when I want it and there is a regular set of gym-goers that you can expect to see most mornings (including me!). read more

I know I'm a little biased because I work for the YMCA of Greater Louisville, but I really like what the Oldham County branch is doing these days. The Oldham County branch is located in Buckner and is a good-sized location that offers its members the following: 1.) An expanded Wellness area that offers free weights, strength building stations, cardio options, stretching areas, and various accessories to help with your workouts; 2.) An indoor basketball court; 3.) An indoor swimming pool; 4.) Yoga, Spinning, and other exercise classes; 5.) An additional facility with two fields that can be used for soccer, field hockey, and lacrosse; 6.) Spacious men's and women's locker rooms; and 7.) Daycare for kids. I know there's a lot more to the Oldham County YMCA than what I've listed, but as you can see, there's quite a bit to do! read more

I'm highly disappointed in the YMCA camp program. It is unsupervised in the age group she is in and there has been many incidents which 1 in particular when she got hurt, no one phoned me or seem to have any acknowledgment that she was hurt, which when she was picked up that day there was a huge bruise on her chin. How did not one person notice she was hurt when she fell into the door? Better yet how come no one noticed when she got hurt to help her? If a child is crying an adult should check on the child. Again why wasn't I called? This was her first and last summer at this YMCA camp. (Side note- I did not sign up for this camp program, this was done on her dads time) read more

Excellent facility for families. Whether swimmers, exercising, or sports the Oldham YMCA offers these amenities and more. Friendly staff are certainly a plus. read more

The YMCA in general has a fantastic atmosphere, and their staff are friendly and helpful. Their equipment is clean, and maintenance is kept up on. Aside from normal gym stuff they offer free childcare while you are working out, a ton of free classes, a swimming pool, indoor basketball, etcetera. This Y in particular is my favorite of the louisville area. The facility doesn't really have anything special that the others don't offer. It's the patrons! The attitude and mentality of the people going there is inspiring and fun to be around. read more

Nice YMCA. I volunteer coached here for a while. They have a nice indoor soccer arena. They have lots of different facilities and place is clean and well kept. read more

I'm not some high fitness buff, but I can say that this Y is definitely friendly towards everyone. It lives up to its reputation as a family-friendly place. The equipment is always clean and easy-to-use- there are signs explaining how to use everything. It does get busy around 5-7, but that's to be expected. I prefer going later at night personally, but I could see how going with other people could be nice. I've heard great things about the classes; there's a test variety in type and even better, they're all free. I enjoy everything the Y has to offer, even if I don't use it all. read more

I love this place! My family and I come here at 3 times a week or more. It is friendly, never overcrowded and all know my kids by name. I'm grateful to have found a place where we can work out and feel a sense of community! And huge thanks to the staff who watch my son come in everyday with his crazy dance and antics before I reach the door and smile! Plus this facility feels extra clean. Very impressed and will likely be lifelong members! read more

So I'm in from out of town for the holidays and I needed a place to do a couple of workouts. The Buckner YMCA was by far the closest place to do so. I called to see if I could PAY for the use of their weight room for a couple of visits. I was told that since I have no family or friends with memberships and since they don't offer weekly memberships, they couldn't help me. Really!? Turned away a the YMCA? Centers like these always find a way to get you in. Especially if you're paying. The person I spoke with was absolutely no help. This particular Y apparently doesn't want patrons, or I just got an idiot on the phone. Either way, what a joke! read more

LOVE this gym!!!!! The classes are fantastic, the instructors really get to know you and make you feel like you are part of a family. if your new, there is no fear because they embrace you immediately. The crowd is older, but its comfortable. There is a ton of equipment for all types of work outs. The day care is clean, and the girls treat my son so great! I cancelled my membership over at LAC because they were SO awful ( the daycare) and I was pretty picky about the security and the kindness of the people who would watch my baby. I love this gym and recommend it to everyone and anyone! read more
