If you are seeking somewhere to swim and need childcare this would be a great option but their weight room leaves much to be desired. My wife got roped into signing us up for a year. We won’t be renewing after this one as I primarily use these types of facilities for weight lifting and have found much better resources at the local YMCA. Also, they have a mask mandate so that’s fun for those of us that have their vaccination.

I am not a member. I went to check out possible membership as i work two minutes from this facility.Price shock $775 a year for an individual member to swim and workout seemed expensive.The facility looked extremely well kept. Main Pool 50 or 100 meter setup. Unheated. This pool looked well cared for by competant staff. Secondary smaller pool looked very well used. This is a 25 meter heated pool. Lots of kids in lots of classes. Weight room has lots and lots of high quality professional grade equipment. Looks like they could easily accommodate 3-4 times the number of current members.Biggest concern is i would like to use before work (before 8 am) or after work (after 6 pm) according to reviews and staff conversation.... probably not going to find a lane. If you do it will mostly likely be shared. Must book a lane on app or online in advance. Seems like a popular place just maybe not what i was looking forward to using.

Been a member here for 21 years, and have gotten to know the trainers and staff, as well as make quite a few friends here. I look forward to coming to workout because this place has such a good vibe. Have done group exercise classes, personal training with Brandon and Ian, and leave feeling better than I did when I entered! Great place!!

I called to get membership information and received the best customer service. I spoke with Hailey, who was very kind and knowledgeable. She took the time to answer all of my questions and assured me she would be there to walk me through the process of joining should I decide to join. Several of my friends work out there and love it. They referred me to Hailey based on their experience with her as well. I’ve heard nothing but wonderful things about the whole staff and have now experienced that wonderful customer service myself. Great job HFFA!

HFFA has done an amazing job of opening up safely amid the pandemic. The staff are welcoming and amazing, and it has been the one escape from the work-from-home madness of the pandemic.

Hard to get in, people who go to aquatics at 8:00am, stay for 9:00am class, not fair. Go for one class and give others a chance.Let people who go to aqua classes goONE CLASS PER DAY, PER PERSON, not two, give others a chance.

Absolutely terrible customer service. Told me one thing and then did another, refused to let me speak with a manager or offer any solution at all other than to just swallow the charge. Save your money and go somewhere else that has a heart.

This is a great place for “seniors” to work out. You don’t need to be intimidated because of your age or ability. The water aerobics classes are perfect to help get your body moving without hurting yourself. The instructors great and the classes are varied. I would definitely recommend!!

Really poor customer service. Very sad to see a company treat individuals like this during a pandemic. Overdrafted accounts and ridiculous fees to cancel. Company clearly cares more about money than client service. Won’t return to this gym and I caution anyone against joining.

Excellent pool, decent gym, good assortment of fitness classes. My wife made some of her first friends here when we moved to town.Excellent preschool as well. The instructors were all very caring and made for a great school experience. We have great memories of our kids here.When we moved to a new gym the cancellation process was a bit rocky. Make sure you secure cancellation confirmation in writing.

Review №33

They are not working with people in these troubled times and only care about the money. My account was supposed to be frozen “indefinitely” or until I came in and used the facilities, but that changed out of the blue with barely a notice. They charged me, overdrafted my bank account, and would do nothing to help but offer another charge to re-freeze the membership for a service I haven’t used since February. Not to mention they plan to charge full price for the next month after you cancel, even in these times. DO NOT go here and DO NOT sign any contracts they put in front of you. They do not care about your financial struggles during this pandemic, all they care about is the money they need to stay open and it apparently doesn’t hurt their conscience one bit to steal it. It’s a shame, considering I used to love going here, but what they’re doing right now is shameful and the customer service has been horrible and unhelpful. The woman I talked to earlier actually said, “sorry for the negligence on your part.” This is not how a business should be run.

Great facilities. Very responsive management. I feel like I’ve always been responded to when I’ve had any concerns. Ms. Hope is wonderful with the babies. Really appreciate her and I feel like my daughter was safe and well cared for. Would like to see the older kids area a little more separated by age as there can be tons of older kids with the toddlers.

The new changes to the gym did not meet the needs of my family. It caters more to older clientele and families interested in using the pool facilities. Membership fees are high compared to other facilities in the Lake Norman area.

Just moved to Huntersville and live around the corner from this place. Was excited to join because it looks great, they have a lot of classes and the month to month isnt bad, but its $200 if you ever decide to cancel! For what??? The hardship of you having to submit the paperwork to your bank? I can see a one month fee or something but this is insane.

Review №55

The hours are horrible for the cost of membership. They have closed two-thirds of the entry doors, shortened the hours, and increased the price. The facilities are nice when there is not a swim meet going on. Otherwise it will be crowded with no parking. You are better off just paying a day fee if you want to go to the pool.

Review №61

The facility is nice and all, but the staff needs some work. Ive called multiple times to ask simple questions on pricing and each time I get the same person telling me they dont know. They dont try to find the answer, they dont tell me how to find the answers, they dont even try to help. They just tell me they dont know. Thats being a terrible employee as well as terrible management for not teaching the employee simple answers to common questions or how to even find the answers.

Review №66

Wonderful center that appears to have all the amenities you woukd want from an aquatic center. We did a birthday party for a 5 yr old & he had a blast at the water park area. Only issue I had was the party host we were supposed to have never showed up which made enjoying the whole time hard, but the staff did a wonderful job correcting the situation when my wife talked with them the next day about the party planner not showing up. She went above & beyond what we expected. Really I would give 4.5 stars if I could. The ONLY reason I cant give a 5 star us because of the party planner no show, but I would definitely recommend to anyone that is thinking of having a water party for their child this would be a great place to go. I think the no show was just a one off mistake.

HFFA is a great community gym. My husband and I have been going there for over six months now and we love it. The Strong bootcamp class is challenging and fun, and the workouts always leave us feeling like we accomplished something. The class incorporates weights and cardio, so you will have a full body workout each time. Cardio Funk is an excellent cardio dance class, and the instructor is amazing; hes energetic and encouraging. You can easily burn several hundred calories and it doesnt feel like youre working out. We also go to the Sunday yoga class, and the instructor creates a relaxing environment that is also nonjudgmental. She will suggest a number of modifications if youre new to the practice. Overall, HFFA is a great place to workout. Its reasonably priced and theyre making a number of renovations to the facility. Go in for a tour and try up to 3 classes for free. You will really get more bang for your buck and meet your fitness goals.

Review №68

Ive purchased a monthly membership for swimming mostly - for about $70. The issue with swimming is that there are swimming classes, professional swimming training, competitions in the 50 m pool weekly - the members are allowed only 3 lanes at any given times and even those are taken by people who are training. It feels like it is real hard as a member to swim over there due to all training going on.Used to be able to go there paying a daily fee, not anymore - you need to buy a monthly/annual membership. Not happy

Review №72

This place is really nice! We just moved to huntersville and getting used to the area and my kids love the pool. The showers and locker rooms were very clean!! The only reason why I cant give 5 stars is because they have an employee with an accent that acted like I committed a crime when my daughter walked on the floor when she just mopped. The look on her face was very rude and unprofessional. However the second time we went there was a energetic young African American lady who was very nice and actually acted like she wanted to be there.

We signed up for kids classes for the the winter. After attending 2 classes in Huntersville location, they told us they will do a renovation in the pool and told us they will have the classes on an open pool covered by a tent in the moss creek (which is in concord). If we know this in advance we would never signed up, they got paid and then told us the pool renovation. This shows how $ oriented they are.The swim schools management are very unprofessional, not kid oriented and classes are very much crowded. They use 2-3 lanes, for more than 20 kids. Our kids supposed to swim 25 feet length but because they divide the 1 lane in 3 even 4 sections, they swim in 10-15 feet lengths.For the moss creek pool, it is freezing cold, no life guards on duty because they think they are really saving money not to put a single lifeguard on duty.For the money and time, you wont get anything. We will try little otter swimming in Huntersville.

Review №99

This is by far the worst experience we have ever had with a summer camp. The billing system is a nightmare, was charged a total of 1000 dollars in one day in six different charges, paying for two weeks of summer camp. Our kids lack any motivation to even go, and fight us daily. The counselors are incapable of dealing with any problems, and actually seem to make them worse. When you call, no one knows how to solve any issues. 2 weeks later I have no refund from their error, and continue to have issues. We are removing the kids and we will not ever be back. Absolutely do not recommend to anyone who can appreciate sanity.
