Buehler YMCA 1400 West Northwest Highway, Palatine, IL 60067

"This place is awesome for birthdays! We did the Treehouse Adventure party and it is great for multiple age groups, large parities and small parties. Kids and adults loved it! Easy place to have a drop-off friendly party (self-enclosed) and kids have a total blast. Staff is super helpful too! Thanks Y for making our boys bdays amazing!"

"The Treehouse Adventure party was AMAZING! The staff made it so easy to put together in advance, and the day of ran incredibly smoothly. It was also one of the more reasonably priced options in our area, and we appreciated that we could bring in our own food, as well."

"One of the worst YMCAs I have been to. Lockers showers are disgusting. Haven’t been updated probably in 40 years. No new fitness equipment in over 20 years. Only a couple cheap kettle bells. No kettle bell pairs. No heavy rope.?No push sled. Only a member cuz my kid plays basketball. Otherwise I would find a better gym. Where does member fee go???"

"YMCA is a very good place for time with family. The most that my kids love is Sumer camp, day care, tree house and swimming pool! Day care program is the best program ever. My 3 years daughter feels happy and safe there!"

"Very nice YMCA with lots of options. Fitness equipment is in very good condition and looks to be well taken off. A couple platforms with racks for the heavy weight lifters. Locker rooms are dated, yet include a sauna and steam room. Two midsize pools along with a very nice large play area for children. Great area for gymnastics along with three basketball courts and an elevated running track. Two functioning racket ball courts along with several others that have been converted to various types of studios. The building is a bit choppy and as first-time visitors it was a challenge to find certain areas. Staff was very friendly and overall a very pleasant atmosphere."
