From the reviews
The facility is clean and welcoming! There's something for everyone. The facility is multifunctional/multifaceted. Work out in the gym, take a walk on the inside track, join a zumba or stretch class, have fun in the pool or water park, let the kids stay in kid care... I love that there's so much to choose from!
Today my grandsons and I came to enjoy this YMCA, coming from the eastlake YMCA. The front staff is very nice and inviting. I told them that it is our first time here, they asked me if I wanted a tour, I got it immediately. Nice and active inside.
I love the Wade Walker YMCA in Stone Mountain. It is staffed by friendly people, is well maintained and has a generous parking lot. The swimming pool is large and has 4 lap lanes with 2-3 always available for lap swimming. There are sections for families and kids and there is even an outdoor pool with slides, etc.
Friendly, welcoming staff. Lots of members who come in regularly. Super stretch class plus they have just started yoga classs for all levels. Also I got a really good orientation to the weight room that made it easy to weights to my routine.
