I would not recommend this gym… You can only sign up for a year, paying in full or by month to month. When you cancel if you’re on a month to month basis, you have to pay out the remaining month’s ($10 fee per month). So 2/12 months is a $100. That’s not the terrible part though, they don’t notify you or let you know when your year is up, they roll you into another cycle unannounced. They also don’t give you a copy of any paperwork when you sign up, they keep it on file, but when you ask for a copy at the desk they can’t provide it at the gym, you have to reach out to their HR department off site.. this is also true for canceling, you can’t cancel your membership at the gym.
What you’re paying overall with this gym is less traffic and various amenities that other gyms don’t have. If you’re going just to get a good workout in, it isn’t worth the price.

Great gym just don't ever expect it to be clean lol especially the steam room and sauna. Same pile of dust build up around machines for months now. Other then that love the atmosphere and basketball court alot to offer here compared to other gyms in area.

Read the contract before you sign
I did not read the contract when I signed but I decided to trust what the girl in the front desk said. We told her that we want to do monthly so, if we Don’t like it we can cancel and we didn’t want to be tied to a contract but she did not elaborate anything on it. She left us understand that we were right. I have used the gym only one time under this contract on the first month. I asked to cancel the membership and now I have to pay 160$ extra to cancel. This is very unethical and unprofessional.
I wish I read the contract before I signed.

Leaving this review to warn others of CFC's awful membership/cancellation system, which is so bad that it feels like a scam.
I signed up for a year, and enjoyed going but didnt use it enough to justify the $650 annual fee. My membership automatically renewed, which I should have seen coming, my fault. This is where the fun begins. You cannot cancel your membership in person or on the phone, even if you are able to reach a "manager". They direct you to a customer service email. After emailing back and forth for about a week, I was able to get my money back, but they charged me about $200 in fees. Whatever, the fees are crazy high, but not too uncommon for a gym to make money off of unfair fees. One more year goes by, and once again I see a charge on my credit card for $650! I was able to successfully reverse the charge by emailing CFC to cancel and after recieving no answer, letting my credit card company know the charge was erroneous. I am still not sure if I am off their list, so I will probably have to get a new card with a different number.
The gym itself has some nice features, but if you sign up, please pay in cash, do NOT give them your credit card number.

I don't think this gym is worth your money. You can find cheaper gyms in the area that offer more than this one does. Also they are super sneaky with the way your cancelation process is. You can't cancel your membership in person. I emailed asking to cancel because I cannot financially afford this membership. Then they emailed me back with cancelation fees. This is typical and I figured I would be charged extra. However after getting that email I figured that my membership was canceled. Nope! They want you to re-confirm your cancelation which in my option is just a cash grab. Regardless, they just got around 200 extra bucks out of me and now I have to go through this whole cancelation process again. Don't try calling to talk to anyone there either, no one answers the phone and you cannot leave messages.

-1 star for zero guest pass policy. If I want to work out with my buddies they shouldn't need to spend the $60 a month I do to join me for a day or so.

-1 star for general attitude of one of the employees.

Other than that, they have some raggedy old weights in the basement that you can lift. That's all I need.

Their policies are outdated though and they're blaming covid. It's mid 2023... not a relevant excuse anymore.

The convenience of their location is the only reason I chose to go here.

This gym is awesome and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. The relationships that I’ve built with the people there are some that I’ll cherish for a lifetime. Also, the sauna and steam room are top notch. I grew up with this gym and looking forward to its longevity.

Simply the best gym around, I've been coming here for 20 years and will be coming here until I'm a geriatric. The owner is amazing and sincerely wants to provide the best experience for all those who attend. Kudos to her for all of the amazing changes and new high quality equipment she's constantly adding. Facility is always clean and well cared for, staff is friendly, my daughter loves coming during child care hours and always has a great time. I'm a proud member!
