Membership Information

Thank you for your interest in membership at the Mercerwood Shore Club. We are a family-oriented swim, tennis and beach club on the northeastern shore of Mercer Island. Our club includes:

  • A 25-meter outdoor pool: The pool includes 1-meter and 3-meter diving boards, and is enclosed in a "bubble" during the winter months to allow for year-round use. Programs include swimming lessons, summer swim, dive team and water polo teams, winter swim team and morning Masters workouts. The summer swim team is the current 4-time Midlakes champion.
  • Fitness equipment and classes: The year-round facility includes newly-acquired state-of-the-art cardio and weight-lifting equipment. Fitness classes such as yoga, cardio, aerobics and weight training are offered at various times throughout the week.
  • Beach and waterfront: Mercerwood features a 500 foot Lake Washington beach front; facilities there include:
    • Boating: 37 boat slips are available, as well as a boat launch and lakeside storage for small craft.
    • Beach: The beach is sandy and shallow for youngsters; older children enjoy swimming out to a wooden raft/platform.
    • Picnic: The grassy lakefront area has a dozen picnic tables for get-togethers with family and friends, and a large pit for campfires and s'mores. Several charcoal barbecue pits are available for use.
    • Recreation: a new play structure with slides, climbing areas and more was added for the enjoyment of younger children. A concrete basketball court lures players of all ages, and you can set up a volleyball net for games on the lakeside lawn.
  • 4 year-round outdoor tennis courts: Summer programs include lessons for all ages, youth teams, ladies' day, mixed doubles nights, and more.
