Amazing facility - definitely worth the very long wait. My family has been a member for a year, and I honestly don't know how we survived summers before joining. We love Tuckahoe! read more

Best swim club around. Year round pool, relaxing chill club. New equipment in the gym, sauna, steam, whirlpool, not pretentious like other clubs in area. Only pet peeve is steam room which is the best when working is at times under repair. read more

I called to join and was told the wait list is 7-10 YEARS. I've asked around and hear that people sell their memberships with their houses. It's quite the juggernaut but not a fair policy. read more

Has three pools- one inside the others Outside. Tennis, small gym and small room for group classes. Clean nice locker rooms. Unfortunately, there is a two year wait list to become a member. Non refundable 30 dollar fee to get on wait list. read more

Wait the 2 years for membership and spend the money. It's awesome here. Gym, outdoor pools, indoor pool, whirlpool, sauna, snack bar, tennis, basketball, etc. read more

Tuckahoe Recreation Club - Outdoor pool. - Gyms Near Me - McLean, Virginia

We have been members for several years. We debated a long time before deciding on TRC. What sold us was year-round facilities, which helps us blow off steam during winter months. I sometimes take yoga after work. Our kids do a swim clinic fall through spring. Our kids started with swim lessons. Non-members can too; this is a great way to check out the club. Now our kids are on the swim team and dive team and we're hooked. All swim teams have a crazy schedule but it's great for kids: what other sport has teammates ranging from 5-18 years old? Great role models, cheering on the little guys. TRC is in the impressive Division 1 but maintains a very social and fun-focused atmosphere. They coordinate tennis camp with daily practice to help parents create a block of activities on summer mornings. Those of us that work outside the home hire babysitters to shuttle the kids to afternoon camps. Facilities: Indoor pool is 25 yards. There's a steam room and ladies & mens saunas. Outdoor there is a 25 meter pool, plus baby & intermediate pools. And one of the only high dives in the area! Ping pong, mini golf, corn-hole, and a playground keep the kids busy in the summer. Tuckahoe has been introducing more social events year-round, which is great, because you become close to other members after you "hang on the hill" with them. During the summer the mosquito-free club becomes our home away from home. We love that our kids have freedom once they're inside the club. After work we grill or hit the snack bar (not all clubs around here have food, and these kids can make a heck of a BLT). The staff is pretty stringent about rules; after visiting other neighborhood pools I appreciate that no one is allowed run amok and cannon-ball strangers. Someone else nailed it when they said this is better than a public pool (we have community and it's cleaner) but it's not a country club. Cost is equivalent to what we were paying at a YMCA each month. If this sounds like a good fit for you, get on the list! read more

Tuckahoe is a great family friendly club and is open year round.. It has an indoor pool, 3 outdoor pools(baby, intermediate, and a very large outdoor pool.) It has a 1 meter diving board and one of the very few 3 meter diving boards in the area. It also has 6+ tennis courts, basketball court, saunas, hot tubs, steam room, fitness room, and multiple fitness classes such as yoga and water aerobics. In the outdoor pool area there are plenty of things to keep the kids busy such as a putt putt course, playground, corn hole, table tennis, and a diverse snack bar. Many families love Tuckahoe for their swim, dive and tennis teams. They also have a full slate of different events in summer for families and adults. It's also a great value considering it's a year round facility. If you are looking for a club, I would encourage your family to look at Tuckahoe. And I think the waitlist is less than a year. read more

Requires a membership (or being a guest of a member) to get in. Has an indoor pool, fitness room, hot tub, and sauna. Also has a large outdoor pool, an "intermediate" pool (for kids), and a toddler pool (moms and babies). There are also tennis courts outside. In the summer there is a snack bar that serves hot food as well as drinks and ice cream. Membership includes the opportunity to join tennis, swim, and dive teams. There are also member events throughout the year. The pool also hires locals to work as lifeguards, receptionists, food workers, etc. Nicer than your average pool- but that's a given, it's private. Nicer than a public pool- not as fancy as a country club. Tuckahoe (TRC) is that middle ground- as long as you have a membership. read more

My family has been members for 10 years and we love this club. The Swim Team is amazingly fun for our kids and the Hill is the perfect place to relax as a family on the weekends. The pools and tennis courts are some of the best in the area. read more

See all

A club membership is necessary for the use of the clubs facilities and even then the facilities are limited with only two small children's pools, one large outdoor, one medium sized indoor pool, and a small work out facility that only features a few work out machines... read more

Been a member for 3+ years and enjoy coming almost daily during the summer months. Swim and dive Team have a great family vibe and my kids love all the fun events. My 7 year old son is now getting into the tennis lessons and we've been very happy. The facilities are clean and well maintained. A big upgrade is coming this fall with a new patio, gazebo and grill. Indoor facilities for year round use is a huge plus. read more

This is a MEMBER owned club. Not a county facility like Spring Hill Rec Center. The wait times have been reduced considerably. WE have been members for over 10 years and love the place. It is a year round facility that is great for the kids too. The indoor area in the winter is great to have, the water is kept at around 84* in the Olympic sized indoor pool in the winter. The air temp is in the similar range. The overall facilities are terrific, it is a great value and the staff are wonderful. Are their issues from time to time ? Of course. However, their is a FULL Board of Directors who address each and every item that comes up or other items that need to be addressed. Their are constant capital improvements that are being done to the club. Tuckahoe is a great family friendly facility that is MEMBER owned (A PRIVATE CLUB). read more

The indoor pool is small as well as the fitness area. We started earlier this year and haven't used the outdoor facilities. When we did find time to use the indoor pool during the winter, the pool area was like an igloo and my kids got cold after going swimming! Apparently the management are too stingy to kick up the heat when weather was cold outside. The biggest issue is the staff and management. They are certainly not very nice to members. We paid a big initiation fee just couple of months ago ($1500 for two adults and two kids), and due to travels we were three days late to submit our annual dues (another $1100), and they wouldn't waive the fine (which is another $100)! I talked to management who told me that this fee couldn't be waived as it's in the bylaws! I'm pretty sure the late fee for credit card is also in the bylaws but the CC companies generally give first time courtesy, esp., for people with good credit! And we just committed $1500! Appalled and disappointed, we certainly don't feel welcome into the club at all. If you are thinking of getting on the waitlist for this club, please think again. There are other options in this area. For example, the newly renovated facilites at Spring Hill rec center are way better and cheaper than this place! I am going to consider the initiation fee a sunk cost after this year. read more

I grew up in Arlington and spend almost every day every summer swimming and hanging out and tanning on a towel on the grass, at Tukahoe, with neighbors and school friends. Lots of great memories. Everyone I knew had memberships. I remember when the put the tennis courts in up on the hill. Such fantastic facilities and a very safe and well run place. I remember living in a speedo, running around with a towel around my waste to hide the excitement, flip flops on the feet to protect against the blistering heat of the pavement, it is so hot and humid in NVA during the summer, I loved playing on the mini golf course. all the pine needles. when it is 100 degrees F, a frozen 3 muskateers bars from the snack bar is the best, that or ice cream "sandwiches". and the root beer floats w/ hand scooped vanilla ice cream were pretty good too. Sometimes maybe it was a hot dog or hamburger, charged to the membership account IIRC. no wallet required. they knew who I was.?? maybe it was all the activity. very cool way to pass the time during the school break. Parents, give your selves a break from scheduling every minute of every day of your kids summer break, and just join the club!!!! No summer camps needed. read more

Swim Team and Summer tennis camp are awesome. Kids love it and are happy to attend. Rita K.
