It was really important to have this feature and I had seen photos of it on the ymca website so I asked the 2 women at the front desk to please cancel the membership I just signed up for. They said they didn't know how to refund the $50 membership fee so they would have to ask the next day. It didn't get done and then I received an email from Laura Gonzales the membership coordinator saying all I could get was a $50 credit. How am I supposed to use that? It's completely useless. I am very upset about this. It's not the money, it's the principal of it. How they advertise they are family friendly and all that, then pull a fast one and keep your money and you get nothing for it because you changed your mind mid-sign up. I hadn't even left the building!

Normally when I am in California, I would be going to the one near my flat but this one is a lot better than I expect. It seems to be a very good place to get fit. The location is also very near where my office is. I can just drive up or ride the bus and go right in. The pool is super nice, right temperature and good place to water walk or swim very slowing since I am a beginner. This is one of three YMCAs I go to in Oregon, the other one is in Albany which is a bit of a long drive. The staff that work here is super nice like the one near my flat. For the days I am in the state of Oregon, this is a great place for the community. Warning: If you have the wrong kind of membership then you are bound to suffer.

A decade at this pool is always love and hate. Because of community here it's so good to think…read morethat we have outdoor swimming pool in summer BUT most of the time we are unable to use it. Their lap swim schedule is horrible. After work, between 4-6 pm: only 2 lanes for "multiple" swimmers AND joggers. Yes turtles and dolphins together in the lane! The rest 4 lanes for swim lessons. If you swim you know how annoying it is to get blocked by joggers. One thing for you to think about; with respect those joggers that have all the floaty devices, shouldn't they go jog at the deep end or just any available spots in the pool? They don't need lanes. Lap swimmers need lanes, with clear direction and separated fast and slow lanes. And this year, no open-swim at the end of the hot sweaty days because they have to keep 2 lanes for little kids swim class *at the shallow area* ok that's fine but why waste of resource at the deep end. And one lane reserved for "private lesson". Ok thprd you value private lesson but that's only 40 bucks at most you get. The reality is, it doesn't serve teens and adults who want to practice their strokes, lets face it this lane out of six serve ONE wealthy kid. Where is equality you stand for? It is stupid decision of management. Swim center supervisor should understand the use of the pool especially in small community that have so many young children. Another thing to think about, ONE kid common! What a privilege. Thprd, ask neighborhood if you can't come up with a better idea for scheduling. Please ask. We pay tax. We send our kids to swim lessons continually for 10 years we have a lot of valuable inputs. We are good members who always follow the rules and clean up the park. We want to swim. Yes! We want to "swim". Do you understand?

It wasn't as grand as other sporting events I've been to at other clubs. I'm glad I went though. The pickleball courts were outdoors. And of course, the weather played a factor. At times, it got windy, which blew a little bit of debris on the court, or knock the ball out of bounds. We got sprinkled on briefly. We had 6 courts to use, 4 were nice. Of course, my first match was on a temporary court that shares lines with a tennis court. It was hard to see the pickleball lines because it was a faded color that blended into the tennis court. A fellow competitor mentioned that for the first 6 points, she kept using the white tennis lines, and that was out of bounds. The tournament experience was good, even though I lost all 4 of my matches. I still felt good that I competed in singles against much younger women, just shy of my 65th birthday. A couple matches were fairly close. I would totally enter another singles tournament, just not on outdoor courts!

Four months after I purchased my condo at Tanglewood and put one year of my HOA dues into my…read moreaccount, Mountain Park turned me over to their attorney for collections over $276 club membership that I didn't know was required and was missed by the real estate professionals during our transaction. when I connected to Mountain Park, they told me I had to pay their lawyer/collections agency. The $276 bill had a ledger filled with false charges and just months later was $3635 Their attorney told me if I didn't pay they would increase it by hundreds of dollars every day and they would foreclose on my home which they were already legally entitled to do. Mountain Park HOA is overseen by the same attorney at Tanglewood. This law firm routinely has a business model of going after the homeowners they represent and foreclosing on their homes. In my case, a $276 bill was falsely escalated to nearly $3700 which does not include the court fees and other expenses I incurred in trying to figure this out. Although mountain Park knew it was an innocent mistake, they refused to allow me to pay them and work with me directly. They knew just how much the attorney was charging me, and had no compunction in moving forward with a lawsuit to take my home. Further, they have done this two dozens of people in the last 10 years. It is my sentiment that the mountain park HOA should be disbanded/dissolved by the owners, and the land and clubhouse donated to the city for tax break for the residents here. The attorney over this HOA would not want this to happen because these HOA's are their stocked pond. They specifically target people who own their homes, and have no way to fight them--low income. My housing experience here has been utterly cruel and in no way does it reflect fair housing. HOAs don't have a great deal of regulation in Oregon and so they get away with things like this. Also, my neighbors, aren't aware of what they did to me--so now you know. At a minimum, an exclusive club would send you an orientation, or maybe even leave a nice welcome basket at your front door, they would be polite when you called them, and they would work with you. Instead, they showed me the utmost cruelty and put me in a dire financial situation--as intended. Let's contact the city manager and ask them to help us donate the land. (503) 635-0215

My baby and I both are having so much fun!…read more I don't understand the negative reviews at all. I've had to cancel a few sessions, and haven't had a problem. They do have a little bit of a rigid policy. You need to cancel 48 hours in advance for a full refund, and 24 for a reschedule. I honestly appreciate that they have a consistent, and clearly communicated policy that's the same for everyone. I like knowing what to expect. I'm a Special Education teacher, and while their expertise is definitely more on swimming than child development, I find it to be developmentally appropriate, inclusive, and accessible. They focus on specific skills, which build on each other. They use a lot of repetition, routine, and play, which is all great for early learning and building a sense of confidence and safety. My biggest complaint is with the locker room. I really wish there was some sort of private change area, even a curtain, especially with so many little kids, and there's not always room to accommodate everyone there.

My experience with SafeSplash has been very disappointing, and I haven't even started classes yet…read more I initially enrolled online but had several questions because the schedule was confusing, the swim levels weren't clearly explained, and the website didn't provide enough information. When I called, I was already three-quarters of the way through the enrollment process. The representative asked me to cancel my online enrollment so he could enroll me over the phone, saying I'd get a better price. It ended up being exactly the same price. I also asked multiple times about private lessons because my schedule is very limited. Instead of answering my question, the representative kept talking about creating a group class. I had to explain several times that I wasn't looking for a group class--I wanted private lessons on a schedule that worked for me. Eventually, we found one group class that fit my schedule, and it was literally the only time I could attend. I enrolled and paid the annual registration fee based on that schedule. Then, on the day the class was supposed to start, SafeSplash changed the class time, making it impossible for me to attend. Since then, I've called twice and have been promised a callback within 48 hours, but no one has followed up. I've also been told that the annual registration fee is non-refundable because my class "already started"--even though the reason I can't attend is because they changed the schedule after I enrolled. I understand that schedules sometimes need to change, but customers shouldn't be penalized or charged a non-refundable fee when the company changes the only class they were able to attend. I hope SafeSplash reconsiders how it handles situations like this and improves both its communication and customer service. I'm happy to change my review if you change my experience. C. Travis
