Does Mountainside Fitness have an annual fee?
Yes — Mountainside Fitness charges an annual fee of $55. As published: $55/year individual, $65/year couple, or $75/year family under the official terms. It is billed once a year on top of your monthly dues, and it is the charge members most often forget, because it typically lands one to two months after you join rather than on day one.
What else can Mountainside Fitness add to your bill?
Beyond dues and the annual fee, Mountainside Fitness publishes this additional charge: $30/month for 1 child, $40/month for 2 children, or $50/month for 3+ children in MKids.
How to pay less at Mountainside Fitness
Corporate and partner programs exist; current promotions may waive enrollment or provide temporary amenity access.
- Ask what the joining fee is today — promotions rotate, and a waived joining fee is the most common concession staff can authorise.
- Ask whether paying annually up front reduces the effective monthly rate.
- Check corporate, student and military eligibility before you sign, not after: most operators will not backdate a discount.
What does Mountainside Fitness actually cost in the first year?
Mountainside Fitness costs about $521.20 in the first year, which works out at $43.43 a month once the joining and annual charges are spread across twelve months. That is $4.58 a month more than the $38.85 headline rate — the gap is exactly what most people miss when they compare gyms on the advertised price alone.

Held at today’s published rates, three years of membership comes to about $1,563.60. Dues rarely stay flat that long, so treat this as a baseline for comparison rather than a forecast — how Mountainside Fitness handles price increases.

Yes — Mountainside Fitness offers a free trial or day pass at participating U.S. clubs. $0 for the official 5-day pass. Use it before you commit: it is the only way to check the equipment queue and class availability at the times you would actually train.
