I am a local person who has been interested in joining and every time I come in the person at the front desk is unaware of the procedures of joining. A lot of people have 9-5 jobs and you have to have competent people working in the evenings to get more members. I came in to sign up with a trial membership voucher and was told it was expired and sent away. The people at the front desk are too afraid to take any initiative in making it right. The management of this place is at fault because they have untrained personnel working. This place is so frustrating. I was mailed a trial membership that was so poorly written you would have thought a second grader wrote it. I would really like to experience how "wonderful" this gym is but I havnt been able to get past the "uhh I dont know come back tomorrow???" front desk clerk!

Love the atmosphere, it reminds me of a winter cabin resort. There is a weight room with power rack, barbells, kettlebells, dumbbells up to 120lbs, plenty of machines, racquetball courts, a huge basketball court, and plenty of cardio equipment. The pool section not only has a sauna, but a steam room which is a great sit as an alternative to a sauna or hot tub. The staff are always very friendly and in fact there is an on-site physical therapy clinic next door -- how convenient! This is truly a great addition to the city of Sandy. Mr Ricker, the head trainer, is world-class. His knowledge of strength and conditioning, periodization, and experience are a great asset to the club.

There are a number of factors that set this health club apart from others my husband and I have belonged to. First, the kindness and knowledge of the staff is unsurpassed. Second, the facility is clean and organized, including the wide variety of equipment availbale. My husband and I have been impressed by some of the innovatiove equipment and services offered here that weve never had access to at other faciities. Finally, my trainer here has demonstrated and provided her expertise on safe exercise practices for me during my pregnancy. As a health care provider who understands the importance of meeting individuals where theyre at, thats huge!

Im a little surprised by the poor reviews. Ive been a member on 2 separate occasions and have never run into any kind of customer service issue. In fact, this club is pretty darned great as far as facilities and employees. If you want to sign up for membership, go in during business hours and talk to the membership person-- not the front desk, not a trainer, not a maintenance person. Just like I wouldnt ask most of you folks for open heart surgery! Great facility. Worth the money, convenient location, plenty of parking.

Great gym! Love the family nights & kid/ family-centered activities. Suggestions? Increase childcare past noon and add more childcare on Fri, Sat, & Sunday. Wish there was more class offerings, as well! Very difficult to make it to classes given that they are few & far between (practically non-existent on the weekends), then add the short childcare hours (the break in the middle of the day to half days then nothing Sunday?) ** oh my goodness it makes getting in for what I want very tricky!

Worst athletic club I have had the misfortune of belonging to. No concept of what hot water is, accept when someone flushes a toilet. Staff cleans showers with harsh chemicals, while members are trying to get clean in said showers. Contact lyrics in a state of repair, is practically a new bld. Locker rooms are cramped, always in someones way or someone in your way. I forget why Im paying them to be a member...

I was a member here for about two weeks. The customer service is terrible. The staff is arrogant and when spoken to, are extremely unhelpful and unwelcoming. Their locker rooms are messy, their towels had dirt and stains on them. Their soap containers were empty and it looked as though it hadnt been cleaned in weeks. As nice as the facilities are. Its not worth the horrible treatment.

Came here to consider getting a membership, the weights area is extremely small, tight quarters and cramped. If there are 2-3 people in that area you dont even want to try. Also there were 2 broken water fountains... Seriously, charging people $50 a month and you have broken stuff? And the other fountains were spewing hot water, Lol! Very dissapointed. Over priced, greedy club.

It is not family friendly. Family Time is noon to three pm. How does that work unless your kids are home-schooled? My kids finish at 3:15 and would love to bring a family of four to exercise. Dont most working folks come after 4:30 or 5pm? Why not extend family time till 5 pm and gain many new members?

We like using the club because it makes us schedule a regular time for exercise, it can be used in any weather and the machines give us information on heart rate, how long it takes us to get our heart rate up, etc. Attending class also enables me to be sure Im doing the exercises correctly.

The equipment is awesome. Its a nice gym... But they need new staff. There is a guy who works there who is awesome! But all the other women who work there are extremely unfriendly and snooty. The hours and dress code alone are enough to make you go somewhere else.

I primarily attend the early AM (0630) water aerobics class. I started with the first class Yvonne taught and have been a regular ever since. I have gotten to meet many nice people in class and have also socialized with them outside the club.

The club is nothing but helpful! I am always greeted with a smile and have had no problems with any of my questions being answered. I would recommend this club to anyone looking to workout in a family-friendly gym.

MHAC is a positive friendly environment. I like when the staff greets you when you arrive and say goodbye when you leave. Above all I love the classes and instructors; they are the best!

My whole family has joined Mt. Hood Athletic Club. My husband being former military really enjoys the different options. What a great way to have the family together as a team.

Zumba, Bodypump, and Pilates- I love all these classes. The different times make it so if you miss one you can make another. The instructors are great. I love Kelly so fun
