People are very athletic here and that's encouraging. Yes sometimes the men's locker room is stinky during rush hour and its okay cuz i'll go first thing in the morning and i notice they have a nightly cleaner. Overall, the ambiance is great with appropriate background music. The only issues ever have been the dauna that broke down a couple months ago but that usually is common in high volume gyms, especially when the heater is abused. This is a tourist/transient town so im sure it's not the regulars that mistreat it. The sauna was really hot yesterday especially for its large size. I love the fact that there's a water bucket and ladle to keep the experience prime. Last Sunday sucked though because apparently they closed an hour earlier than their posted schedule. It's understandable as i do know they are looking for a new manager, says the ad they posted. I believe they'll get a solid manager soon maybe one that can help with both locations as i frequent the one in Incline way more. Thats a great location as well. Hardly ever any issues. The owners do great with both and i'm excited to see who the new manger is.

Pros: - the rack room is great…read more- good selection of new equipment - gym area is clean - cheapest gym option in truckee (but that's not saying much) Cons: - equipment/sauna repairs take forever - locker rooms not very clean/well maintained - employees consistently no-show, making the 6am opening extremely unreliable - management seems to prefer being combative with customers over trivial things rather than doing what makes sense (just put a dirty towel receptacle by the exit already) - WAY overpriced, ridiculous fees, horrible guest pass options, and arbitrary restrictions on membership benefits, even though you're paying full price (and then some) for said membership - they unapologetically jump on every opportunity they can to GOUGE you with extra fees, requirements, and irrelevant timelines to initiate/cancel, etc...and they seem almost proud to do so

Towels, cleaning stations, tidy lockers and showers, high ceilings/great circulation, A-plus gym in all respects.

The owner has been heavily harassing clients (including myself). Today he came up to me in the middle of my workout, after I had just gotten there, and began aggresively screaming at me for not picking up SOMEONE ELSE's weights. I had multiple people come up to me after saying that he had behaved the same towards them. This went way beyond un-professional and was actually pretty horrifying behavior that I guess happens regularly.

Medium size box, medium sized classes of diverse folks of all ages. Even tho I've been crossfitting for almost 20 years, still can sometimes be intimidating showing up to a new gym as I worry about the altitude etc- this gym was welcoming. I also love that they have a "sweat" class that is more HIIT vs worrying about technical skills as much. This class, and several of the morning classes, seem to be more female than male. I'd highly recommend.

Wherever I travel, my first question is: "Where's the nearest CrossFit?"…read more That's the incredible secret perk of this fitness community: You can settle down temporarily next to a CF box pretty much anywhere in the world. As a traveler, it grounds and rejuvenates you. It's an instant intro to like-minded locals. As an avid CrossFitter, it's an opportunity to accept new challenges and learn new ways from a different CF culture. For many summers, I'd come to Truckee and drop in at CrossFit Truckee Power Lab, which was an amazing space and community. When that box closed down due to COVID, it was a big loss. When I returned to Truckee this summer, I was delighted to discover that there's a new, thriving hub for CrossFit right in the heart of Truckee. Many of the same athletes I got to know years ago at CF Truckee were now working out here! The appropriately-named Dreamtown CrossFit is an exceptional box. The owners, Jason and Andrea, have clearly poured a tremendous amount of thought, resources and love into Dreamtown. It's not a big space, but it's stocked with equipment, sparkling clean, beautifully decorated, and very intelligently designed to maximize your CrossFit experience. One thing I especially loved was the smooth metal handstand push-up / wall walk wall, with specially-installed hooks to accommodate bands for modified HSPU's. I've been to dozens of boxes, and I've never seen anything like it. I am an experienced CF athlete, and I observed something quite unique about Dreamtown: It's a perfect place to drop in if you're a veteran CrossFitter, AND it's a perfect place to drop in if you're relatively new to the sport. Here's why: (1) If you're *experienced*, Dreamtown follows Tia Toomey's PRVN programming, which, at Rx, is VERY challenging - especially if you're still getting acclimated to being at 6,000 feet of elevation. (2) If you're *relatively new* to CF, you'll find that many of the regular members at Dreamtown are very fit mountain folks - skiers, bikers, hikers, yogis - and they intuitively understand how to scale movements and set up the workout in a way that works with their fitness. This frees up the excellent coaches - Jason, Alex, Devon - to give more individualized attention to athletes that need more guidance. I spent two weeks at Dreamtown, and each day it was the highlight of my summer vacation. I can't wait to be back.

It has everything you need if you know you're way around a gym or have an app. TRX, Squat rack, free weights, treadmill etc. Next time we come up we'll for sure be back. Maybe we'll even try to make a class. I don't know if this is the norm or if it was the holiday but we only saw one other person there all three times we went. So we had the run of the place. Pretty sweet. Recommended for folks that just want to get in, get a workout and get on with everything else that Tahoe has to offer.

First of all , the renovations and upgrades have been marvelous and very much appreciated…read more There are very serious workout folks there which I am not one of them . Some of my frustrations are that these serious people tend to hog the equipment with no regard for others who are waiting to use the same equipment, many times they sit on their phones and not even use the equipment. It would be helpful to have some general signage that limits the time people have on each piece of equipment . Also it would be helpful if some of the staff members would be around to help with some of the equipment . For example , the treadmill seems very daunting to me and I have yet to figure it out . Part of that is on me for not searching out a staff member but if there was a little more instructions posted other than what the treadmill instructions are on the equipment would be most helpful .
