This gym is alright as a facility, I'd say it's mid tier maybe upper tier level amongst Montana, but I've traveled all over the United States (I'm a veteran, not rich) I've been to many nice gyms one of my favorites is a local ymca in WA that's similar in a sense that it has all the amenities you could ask for, pool, steam room, sauna, very spacious etc. My favorite part about that gym was it was $15 a month with no cancelation fees. Whereas this gym has similar amenities, it's pool is much smaller, overall it's smaller, but most the most important distinction for a single member it costs $50 a

So my friend and I go here regularly to swim and hot tub at least once or twice a week before showering and heading home. We both have service dogs and were nervous about access issues in a new place. We have been going regularly for almost a month now..... and we have never had an issue. Our dogs are medical alert for cardiac and blood pressure alert and then mine also does FMP and guide work as well as my eyes don't work very well. They have their place blankets they lay on while we do our thing and then they watch and wait just like they were trained to do even when in the pool or shower ((thus
