  • Been going to SP YMCA for about 2-years now. Wide variety of exercise equipment that is all nice and well maintained. Place is kept very clean inside and outside always has some cool seasonal landscaping. Big gym that is multifunctional for basketball, pickleball and badminton. Large pool and kiddie pool also with bucket dumps and squirt cannons. Has childcare on site, offers a variety of exercise and wellness classes throughout the year. Lots of parking. It’s also part of the national YMCA network so you can use your membership at other national YMCA facilities throughout the state and US which I do on occasion.

  • I’m a Nationwide YMCA member visiting from Tulsa, Oklahoma, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This YMCA truly went above and beyond! Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. The hot tub was exactly what I needed after a long day—it was so relaxing. The local members were also very kind and made me feel right at home. Thank you for making me feel so welcome. If I’m ever back in the area, I’ll definitely be visiting again. Keep up the amazing work!

  • They gave gone to auto renew membership with one year contracts. These are slimy for for profit businesses, but really disgusting for a nonprofit.

  • It's a full facility and a great price point for someone to get a full gym workout.

  • I wouldn’t normally write a review about a gym, but this place is fantastic! Mostly due to the awesome staff. Every single person I’ve encountered has been so friendly and helpful! Notably Woody (manager), Samson (he sings), and Sophie (lifeguard), but so many more too. I was initially nervous about being a newbie (unskilled) swimmer, but I feel very comfortable here. Highly recommend!

  • So this place feels special. I periodically travel from out of state to Sun Prairie. When in town I try to go here everyday. Immediately upon entering, I get a great feeling when welcomed by the front desk (Joan and Brent I believe). Everyone seems happy here and I’ve heard that the leadership at this facility is very good. I was very impressed with the fitness equipment upstairs. I road the bike one day and everything worked. I was able to adjust it and there were no issues in terms of it functioning as designed. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to a gym and couldn’t get their bikes to work properly. When I went swimming the lifeguard (Ant, I believe) was the most attentive lifeguard I’ve ever seen. He just kept walking around the pool constantly vigilant. And this was a time with at most 4 adult lap swimmers. I don’t know if this is true, but I heard he’s the new aquatics manager. Makes sense, he was impressive. Hey, show up before noon and you can get a cup of hot tasty coffee. Nice touch particularly on a cold day. Bring your own mugs and prevent some trash (just a thought). I’ve read that the YMCA is one of the top non profit organizations to work for. The staff here really seemed happy. To all the SP YMCA staff…keep up the amazing work. I’ll see you on my next visit! In terms of photos, no one seems excited when your taking photos so I just shared a few.

Questions parents ask about SUN PRAIRIE YMCA

Is SUN PRAIRIE YMCA a licensed child care provider in Wisconsin?

SUN PRAIRIE YMCA holds Wisconsin licence 6000559066-061, listed as "LICENSED" by the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families in Dane County, licensed since 2007-09-17. Confirm current standing on the state's provider search at childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov before enrolling.

What is SUN PRAIRIE YMCA's YoungStar rating?

YoungStar rates SUN PRAIRIE YMCA 5 stars out of five. The rating covers staff education, the learning environment, business practices and child well-being, not inspection outcomes, and it is separate from the licence.

What are SUN PRAIRIE YMCA's hours?

The state directory lists 06:30 AM-06:30 PM, Jan-Dec, full time. Wisconsin records the daily window but not which days it applies to, and hours change without the licence record changing, so call ahead.

What ages does SUN PRAIRIE YMCA take?

The licence covers 1 year to 13 years 11 months. That is the span Wisconsin licenses the provider for, not a list of the rooms it runs, so ask which age groups it is actually staffing.

Does this page show inspection results for SUN PRAIRIE YMCA?

No. Wisconsin publishes licensing violations for each provider, and none of them are included here, so nothing on this page reflects SUN PRAIRIE YMCA's inspection history either way. Read the violation record on the state's provider search at childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov.
