I was a member for over 4 years. Overall a decent gym, no complaints about the facility or amenities. However, please be forewarned that canceling your membership comically requires 30+ days for them to process. This is clearly unnecessary and must simply be a predatory way to grab another month's worth of $ from you. Slimy. For the high price they charge I am shocked that that is how they choose to operate.

There's an obvious reason that you do not post membership prices online. After realizing there was no pricing online, I called in to get a cost for an all-inclusive, single membership. The front desk reception "Keith", told me that he was "not at liberty to say" as there are "a lot of factors for pricing", but assured me that one of the sales team members would call me back. Really? I simply want to know pricing, I am not buying a car. This back and forth customer gimmick left a very poor taste in what this club is really about.

To address other common complaints. * Membership: $120 a month and significant one time payment. More expensive than planet fitness and only one location. * Facilities: Extensive * Equipment: much of the weight equipment is on the old side, planet is better for this except in specialty * Cafe: small portions and high side of reasonable prices Overall membership has been incredibly rewarding to me. If $90 a month is really so much to you, I suggest planet fitness. If you want swimming, hot tub, good rate on personal training, b-ball/pickleball, indoor track and more intense weight equipment this will be better

Extreme disappointment. My partner and I joined and were impressed with the facility initially. But then we discovered that it is just an over priced day care. There are routinely 30 kids plus on the gym floor working in large groups taking up 3-4 workstations at a time and lingering FOREVER, making it near impossible to complete a workout. They are loud, obnoxious and entitled. Complaining about it is pointless because they are spoiled kids from rich parents and the facility will do nothing to correct the obvious problem that every adult, who didn’t produce one of these prepubescent entitled feckless brats, is irritated by because they aren’t going to make the parents unhappy. We have to make the initiation fees worth it (which are insanely high when you consider how awful this place is) so we are stuck in this hell for a bit. But if you like to lift and are serious about fitness, DO NOT JOIN THIS GYM. Huge mistake. Planet Fitness is way better and it’s $20 a month.

This is not a gym where you can get a $10 membership, but it shouldn't be. It is absolutely worth the cost. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly, equipment is in good shape. One indoor lap pool and one indoor more general use indoor pool. Multiple basketball and raquetball/ squash courts. Indoor walking track. Classes are well run and never been to one I haven't enjoyed. With the all access membership you get use of the outdoor pool and the outdoor adult area (small pool and bar). Very nice childcare with great staff for those who need it. Lots of extra social events and activities as well.

Workers are very strict and rude. Lots of children around and by the pool. Equipment is old and creaks. They do not let guest know the policy until they are not able to go as a guest unless they buy a membership. The guest pass despite going late with a couple hours left; you get charged the same price.

This place is an experience. The staff are always welcoming and really try to make sure the customer is first. The facility is clean and has a lot to offer for all types of people. This is especially true if you enjoy working out or group sports. I recommend if you can afford to go here, this is the best gym-type experience you can get in Cincinnati by far.

I’m a big fan of this gym! They have such great amenities for their members. They offer multiple pools, there’s trainers, salons, lots of equipment and gyms. Multiple types of indoor and outdoor courts, and it’s reasonably priced.

Was a really cool gym (was 4+ star) when initially joined and over past couple years they priced self out for what is offered and actually received for membership for a single person. I would describe it as a big gym with a couple swimming pools and good marketing. Currently membership was at about 120 a month & not including initial fees. There have been and sustained shortened hours of operation in past couple years Place is not very clean with towels piling up and more. . Use of equipment is difficult to obtain at times and or worn. Also management is not personable or return calls. Extra fees for stuff. Therefore with these reasons and many more, I recommend other exercise gyms in region as healthy exercise is important and need fun when going to a gym and money needs saved.

CSC does a great job of providing a variety of services for a reasonable price. I’ve been especially impressed by their personal training. My trainer Jarred (yes two Rs) provided the perfect combination of science based exercise, positive reinforcement, and flexible scheduling that has allowed me to see fantastic results in just a few months!

its a very nice facility. I love that they have an adults only locker room on the second floor AND an adults only swimming pool with a bar and jacuzzi, im looking forward to that in the summer. the locker rooms are very clean, they have everything you need, towels, shampoo, soap, hair dryers, lotion, deodorant, hair spray, pads, tampons. the showers are real nice, better than my shower at home lol. I love the indoor track and the lap swimming pool. the jacuzzi is a little lack luster with the jet pressure and I know sometimes people make reservations for a single lane so sometimes it hard to tell if one is using a lane on their own or not. other than that, fantastic gym! I was a little intimidated at first because the gym seems like its for (rich people) but the staff seem to take care of everyone and you truly do get what you pay for! the qaulity is up there!

Cincinnati Sports Club is a great facility that is unfortunately staffed by a number of overbearing and humorless martinets. We have been members on-and-off for the past 20 years, and while recent improvements to the club are impressive, its management could use an upgrade. Again, we enjoy the club, especially the new(ish) adults-only “resort”pool and new multipurpose weight room. But heaven help you if you are found in violation of one of their ever-growing list of rules. In our most recent case, when our 19-year-old daughter briefly accompanied my wife to the 21-and-over resort pool, she (my wife) was first confronted by a member of the staff, then got a call from the club manager, and finally was sent a written reprimand. You would have thought the two of them had looted the cash register. As I shared in a written complaint, people join the club for fitness, leisure, and *fun.* They might try lightening up on members. UPDATE 10 July 2022: The response below from the sports club appeared within 24 hours of my review being posted. If you are monitoring social media for potentially negative reviews this closely, you might ask yourself why.

I'm not a member but went to a kids birthday party. This place is very nice and clean. They have tons of stuff to do in there. The pool area is awesome and they even have a separate adult pool and a splash area for kids.

Tonics Spa And Salon is a great place to pamper yourself! I went there to get nails done for my wedding. The staff is friendly and accommodating. My French pedicure is still looks lovely after an entire month! Check out this place for some self care:)

Adult outdoor pool with a bar, outdoor pickleball courts, separate pool for kids with its own bar/snack bar, 2 hours of free childcare a day? Pretty great deal. If you’re a Fairfax resident this is a NO BRAINER. They give you such a great discount.

This place has everything. I could spend an entire day here no problem. The atmosphere is calming and relaxed. Plenty of space for everyone.

Wonderful place, disappointed about losing the tanning beds. Otherwise, very high class space.

Great community club with a ton of amenities including multiple pools, tennis courts, Pickle ball, and great events like wine mixers. They invest in renovations and care about member feedback.

This place is HORRIBLE. Towels feel like sandpaper and I have found dirty bandaids by the hot tub. I decided to leave in November and was told that I needed to give advance notice before the 15th. I called on the 17th and was told had to pay for December because I did not give them enough advance warning. JOKE. Come January I was charged $109, I called the club with no return call. February 1 same charge of $109. No one returns calls but I come to find out you have to give them 45 days WRITTEN notice that you want out. The person I spoke with in November (who no longer works there) NEVER said anything about writing the club to cancel. Heather Luttrell is always "busy" "in a meeting" or "setting up for something" and after 5+ emails and calls she still did not have the courtesy to call me. I have a refund for March ONLY and they refuse to acknowledge the customer is always right. DO NOT JOIN HERE!

Never got the chance to step foot in this place. I was simply looking for a price of the membership, as pricing is not online. The young lady that answered the phone told I needed to speak with the membership department and placed me on hold, she came back to the phone and said they weren’t available and asked if I wanted to leave a message. I explained I just needed to know the price as I’m comparing facilities at this time. She told me the staff is not given that information. Really… you’re so focused on trying to gather people’s contact information that you’d rather insult my intelligence and have your staff tell me she doesn’t know the price of the membership to the club. It doesn’t matter how far the next club is from me, we won’t be going to this one.

CSC is a fantastic health club! There's something for everyone here and it's a clean,facility with a very friendly staff and just a fun place to be! I've been a member for two years and I wish I had joined sooner!

It's a unique business, it's primarily a gym but it's also a community center. They offer some nice social events like a book club, wine tastings, and a seasonal happy hour which could help to create a sense of social cohesion. There are some group classes that come with the membership and there's an indoor and outdoor pool. It certainly feels welcoming to families. They should enforce a strict age limit inside the workout center. The core business is pretty good but it could stand to be tightened up a bit. The average member is probably closer to 40 so they're using aerobic machines and some of them are quite old. There's no vibe inside the gym and no social atmosphere. The TV's are distracting. Supposedly, they have a lot of YouTube programming but they don't promote their educational videos. The club needs to update their brand and become a bit sleeker, and more urban.

So many other gyms out there that are cheaper/don’t charge an insane startup fee and are just as nice (minus the unnecessary thrills they put in place to justify the cost)

The pools are nice and the staff is friendly. The dressing rooms are always clean. Each visit has been a positive experience.

The staff are friendly. The facility is very clean and has towels, lotion, body wash. The group work outs have really helped me stay on track. Great place!!!

The Cincinnati Sports Club started off as an impressive gym, but over the past few years, their prices have skyrocketed without matching the quality and services provided. With a monthly fee of around $120 and additional charges for various amenities, it's simply not worth the cost. The facility has also experienced shortened operating hours, and the cleanliness leaves much to be desired, with towels piling up and other hygiene issues. Equipment availability is often challenging, and the worn-out state of some machines is evident. Given these concerns and more, I would prefer exploring other fitness centers in the area that offer better value for money and a more enjoyable gym experience.
