I feel like mask compliance has improved recently. There are still a couple of teenagers that use the exercise equipment without a mask occasionally, but for the most part I think almost all members get the memo that they should properly wear a mask when using the shared equipment indoors.

I miss the gym-since Covid I havent been back there but I really did enjoy my membership until the prices started to increase due to covid- I couldnt really afford to pay a separate fee for swimming besides my membership fee-people are friendly lots of great classes included with membership. They keep it as clean as possible.

I LOOOOOOOOOVE Harbor Bay Club! I love scheduling for a lane at the pool because it insures I will always have a lane when I arrive. I love that it's a salt water pool. I love the clean locker room, sauna, jacuzzi! I love the weight rooms and outdoor option with so much space between machines. And so many tennis courts! Plus there's an outdoor play area for the littles! And the customer service people are so nice!

I finally felt secure enough go return to the gym, and their COVID precautions make me feel comfortable and safe. Things are kept clean and disinfected in the gym and locker room.

Great place to workout! Gym is available both indoors and outdoors. Outdoor pool lane reservations are great for laps and kids can join. Quiet and clean. Recommend for anyone in the area. It could use more onsite classes and better online system, but facilities are worth it.

I am new to the area and I am looking for somewhere to work out. I gave it a one star because I am unable to get a response from anyone to be able to get in there. I went online and submitted a request for membership info. No response. I found a general email account and sent a request for membership info. No response. I walked in on a Saturday and asked about membership info. They don't have a membership representative on the weekends so they gave me a business card. I emailed the person on the business card. No response. I think I'll go find somewhere else to spend my money
