★★★★★Nelson Waisberg

Tuckahoe is simply a wonderful place. A great club full of friendly families. Managed very well from involved members that love the place. Swim and Dive are excellent and have great coaching. The kids just love the place, their friends, training, hanging out there, being part of the team, and volunteer or coach as they grow up. Every member treasures this club.

★★★★★Ernesto Valdes

Tuckahoe Recreation Club in McLean is a fantastic community gem! The new gym facilities are top-notch, the staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the play areas are spotless and well-maintained. Our kids love the fun events and activities year-round. It's clear the club is committed to providing a safe, clean, and family-friendly environment. We love it!

★★★★★André Passos

Tuckahoe is a wonderful club for families with and without kids. The only club in the area with an indoor pool that remains open year-round. The club’s strong family orientation makes an ideal place to bring your kids, and they have plenty of space to run and play while parents socialize together. Their tennis infrastructure is amazing, and the swim team is the leading NVSL squad!

★★Melissa Terzis Proakis

Meh. We were members for three years but ultimately we left for a few reasons. First the pool is always freezing. It doesn’t stop people from getting in, but it is definitely uncomfortably cold for us. Second, the lifeguards literally live on their whistles. They are always yelling at people and it’s super annoying because most of the time it’s just people having fun and it’s not dangerous. One of the last straws was when one screamed across the pool at two other lifeguards for chatting during the 15min adult swim time. Seriously? Keep that behind closed doors or walk your lazy self over there and tell the two lifeguards to stop talking. Third, we got a letter that dues were going up 20% and would continue to go up because there was $3M of deferred maintenance needed. For the price of initiation ($3000) and the annual fee of $2500 it was a colossal waste of money for a more than subpar club. When we emailed that we were quitting they were back: “thanks.” Didn’t even ask why. So ridiculous.

This large private club offers excellent swim and tennis programs for children and year round swimming for all ages at a reasonable price. Due to its size, it takes some effort to get to know other members but it us worth the effort. There is usually a wait list but the winter swim membership is open for swimming fall to late spring and is a good way to know the club.
