CLUB FACILITIES

We are proud of our renovated 25 yard, 6 lane pool, that has a deep area, and roped off 3 foot section for the kids.  We also have a gated baby pool, with new toddler playground equipment in this area as well.  In addition, we have recently put in brand new playground equipment for kids ages 5-12. We also have recently extended our pavilion area which houses ping-pong tables, and picnic tables.  We also offer a sand volleyball court, horseshoes, and a large area in the back for the kids to play soccer, wiffle ball or to just run around.

We have several grills, so you can bring your own food to prepare, or if you don’t feel like cooking we also have a snack bar.  Our snack bar offers everything from ice cream treats, candy, Gatorade, juice boxes, sodas, bottled water, to pizza (provided from the local pizzeria), and other assorted snack foods.  All items are very reasonably priced!
