Deer Lake Athletic Club in Clarkston runs an all-day summer camp starting the week after school lets out, with swimming in the club's two pools, weekly themes, lunch included, and early drop-off and late pick-up available. Alongside the general camp it offers week-long specialty camps in tennis, cheerleading, lacrosse, football, soccer, karate, hip-hop dance and a junior Olympics.

Powered by GoogleI just had my daughter’s baby shower here. Emily is great to work with and very kind. Waitstaff was incredible and very friendly. We had the Chicken Picata with salad and mashed potatoes! The food was delicious Thank you Deer Lake for helping make this a great shower! 😃
I came into the pool on opening day and I was SO HAPPY to see Lisa back poolside. I try and get there early so I can make sure I’m on her section. She is super friendly, attentive and fast!!
Deer Lake Athletic Club has the BEST and most professional bartenders and wait staff. They are efficient, friendly and experienced. The food is amazing and my meals are always perfectly prepared! Their chef is so experienced and manages his kitchen well. We love to go on Fridays because it is prime rib night. It truly is the best prime rib I have ever had! The sides are excellent... mashed sweet potatoes, brussel sprouts, potatoes... yummy! Our guests loved their filet and tenderloin sandwich as well. We go to DLAC for meals only as we live too far away to participate in offered activities. People go there for food, fun, dancing and entertainment.
60th Surprise Birthday Party. The staff was great, they even used the pool bar area since it was not being used. The buffet was excellent including the carved meat and salmon. The view of Deer Lake was a nice plus. We have been there for dinner a few times since the party and the restaurant is great, often with entertainment. Note: The Deer Lake team worked well with the party planner, DJ and photographer.
I hosted part of my wedding celebration at Deer Lake with a pickleball tournament, and it was absolutely perfect! The setting was ideal, players enjoying the courts while other guests were upstairs, where we had reserved tables with food and drinks. All guests fantastic time. The servers were incredibly kind and attentive. If you're looking for a fun and memorable venue for your event, Deer Lake is the place to go!
