Mountainside Fitness announces new Queen Creek location

Mountainside Fitness is coming to Queen Creek.

The Phoenix office of real estate brokerage firm JLL has announced that it has completed a land acquisition in Queen Creek on behalf of Mountainside Fitness.  

Based in Scottsdale, Mountainside Fitness currently operates 21 health clubs across metro Phoenix, serving more than 150,000 members. Its new Queen Creek location will sit at the northwest corner of Combs and Gantzel roads, sharing an intersection with Target, Sprouts and Fry’s, according to a press release from JLL.

“Queen Creek is the perfect location for us to do what we do best, which is to support the health and wellness of metro Phoenix’s growing population with an outstanding health club environment at an affordable price,” Mountainside Fitness CEO Craig Cote stated in the press release. “We’ve been doing this successfully for almost 35 years and will continue that tradition as we add Queen Creek and the San Tan Valley to our Mountainside family.”

With about 42,000 square feet in a single story, the Queen Creek Mountainside Fitness will offer state-of-the-art equipment and more than 70 daily group-fitness classes, with on-site amenities including locker rooms and an elevated childcare program.

The Queen Creek Mountainside Fitness is scheduled to open in December.

This is the latest location announcement by Mountainside Fitness, which is adding multiple new facilities now under construction and set to open throughout Arizona in the near future.

JLL Managing Director Regan Amato represented Mountainside Fitness in its Queen Creek land acquisition. Rommie Mojahed of CRE8Advisors represented the land seller.

“This is an exceptional position within a sprawling and underserved submarket, offering outstanding demographics and significant exposure to over 40,000 cars per day,” Amato stated in the release. “In addition to dedicated visits from its members, Mountainside will benefit from the synergistic traffic of nearby retailers, restaurants and schools, making it a natural fit for both Queen Creek and San Tan Valley residents alike.”

In 2024, the JLL Phoenix team completed almost 50.5 million square feet in lease and sale transactions, with a total transaction volume of more than $2.8 billion, according to the release. It managed almost 18 million square feet of space and directed 36 projects through project and development services.
