Best Gyms with Saunas near Raleigh, North-carolina

Kerr Family YMCA has been a lifesaver for me this year. My health is drastically improved, as is my mental health (any other moms need a break from the kids on a regular basis?!) The child care is top notch. Whitney, Dawn, and Roya are so special to my children, but EVERYONE in the kids zone is kind, patient, and gentle with the kids. They give honest feedback about how the kids are doing, and follow through with making sure little ones are sent to the bathroom as requested. The gym has recently been renovated and most of the equipment is new! I do wish the pool was kept a little warmer in the winter, but we enjoy family swim time anyway. Another huge benefit is the sauna in the locker room. Lastly, the free coffee station is a fantastic little bonus after a a hard workout. Love the Y and plan to keep my membership for years to come.

I can’t believe this place only has 3.5 stars. I can’t speak to summer camp or child care but I do attend fitness classes and lift weights here and it’s great! Truly a community gym meaning it is smaller and equipment can be limited during busy times. However; it’s a YMCA meaning the people who work here are amazing and caring and friendly. They keep things clean and make regular updates and additions. They listen to feedback and best of all, they support members in need with financial aid and support the community in general with programs and events. I’m proud to be a member here!

We love the Kerr site! The facilities are always clean and everyone is friendly. Our kids often prefer coming to the outdoor pool here in the summer instead of the neighborhood pool because of the big slide ❤️.

So far I have enjoyed the Kerr Family YMCA. Loved the gym classes, and my daughter always has a great time in the child care, the ladies there are very nice and communicate with me about my daughter's time there. So Far we have had a great experience as a family.

This has been my experience with the Banks D Kerr Family YMCA and this is purely subjective. Condescending Christian overtones directed towards members. High pressure from leadership to donate to “we build people” campaign. Over-priced with facilities and equipment extremely lacking. This place and its directorate make me want to be an Atheist.

I was visiting Raleigh for the weekend and found this gym on google. It’s very well organized. It fits every gym demographic (influencer, bodybuilder, power lifter, strongman, weightlifter, crossfitter)

The second location of the Hardwork Empire. Just when you thought lightening could not strike twice - Hardwork North has done it again. This place is a vibe in and of itself. Badass gym with excellent equipment, superb lighting, body-pulsating music, and captivating murals. If you’re looking for a gym that exists on its own level, then Hardwork North is the place for you. Complete with an infrared sauna, recovery equipment, and a posing room, this gym provides everything you need to put in the work and keep coming back stronger.

HWSP North and South locations are excellent facilities, both equipped with everything you need for your workout regardless of your sport is powerlifting, strongman, bodybuilding, functional fitness, training for life or anything in between. The staff is friendly, the facilities are always clean, and the equipment is worth writing home about. Rates are beyond reasonable. I highly recommend checking out the facility for Raleigh/Durham locals or out of town visitors.

Staff is friendly and helpful. Owner, Joe, is one of the best humans you will ever meet. This gym aspires to greatness and will inspire you to achieve current goals and create and achieve new goals you never dreamed possible. This community and gym are the best in Raleigh!

You'll go for the equipment, atmosphere and high standards. You'll stay for the friendships, high level athletes and community. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Do yourself a favor and drop in, you'll come back.
