Oakwood Athletic Club

I've been a member here for over a dozen years. I have been a member at most upscale health facilities all over the bay area. Hands down this is the finest, although I have heard good things about the "O" club in SF. The Bay Club is good but way too busy. The Big C in Concord is nice, but doesn't compare to staff and clientele and the basketball gym is not full court. I would say this is still a cut or two above the SF Bay Sports Clubs, just for the sake of privacy and solitude. The staff here is second to none and is proactive to your needs. The management here listens.

Wow!! What a great place. Best locker rooms ever. Gym equipment for everyone. Warm 81 degree pool for laps. Nice Cafe. I haven't ever been to a better facility. We went to a Tai Chi class here with a great instructor. Highly recommended!!

Avoid avoid avoid. Our family has consistently had the worst experiences with Oakwood Athletic Club. Their facilities are old and outdated. The machines are constantly broken. The pool is always packed with too many people in a lane. But most egregious is their terrible customer service. It simply doesn't exist. Multiple friends have been injured onsite due to Club negligence, and their response has been abysmal. One of our friends slipped on the racketball court because they had a leak in the roof, resulting in puddles. They did absolutely nothing about it and showed absolutely no concern. Overall, Oakwood charges exorbitant fees for poor service and inadequate facilities. We have let our membership lapse and will not be back.

The worst. We've been members for a decade, but not anymore. Oakwood doesn't take care of its members. They recently had leaky roofs from the rain. Members slipped and hurt themselves, my niece included. Oakwood charged full fees for the period she was injured even though she couldn't swim or take classes, and they were absolutely awful to deal with. The locker rooms are outdated and smell bad. Shower curtains are full of mold. The classes are extremely "meh." The pool is packed on hot days, often 4+ people to a lane, and out-of-control kids running wild. Oakwood simply isn't worth the price. We've dealt with management countless times and they don't accept constructive criticism, so we're cancelling our membership. Don't bother with this place.

Firstly, My family and I have been members of oakwood for ~8 years. Recently, one of my family members had left a bag in the women’s locker room and called to have someone from the front desk retrieve the bag so that I could go to the gym and pick it up. When I arrived 30 minutes later, none of the staff had went to retrieve the bag that was left. When I got there, it took about 10 more minutes for someone who worked at the gym to finally get the bag. Once they went to the lockers, the bag was gone and about $300-400 worth of items were now lost/stolen. I understand that it’s my family members fault for leaving the bag, but the lack of urgency, concern, and care for me or my family members I’m this situation is outrageous considering the price of the membership here.
