1. A Foundation Built on Family and Recreation
Nestled on the scenic shores of Lake Washington, Mercerwood Shore Club has been a cornerstone of community life on Mercer Island for generations. Built on a foundation of family and recreation, the Club offers year-round opportunities for connection and fun—from social gatherings and beach days to swim meets and tennis matches.
2. Commitment to Excellence in Aquatics
The Club’s spectacular waterfront setting provides a stunning backdrop for its renowned aquatics program, offering members a wide range of ways to enjoy the water. From swimming and diving to lounging poolside with snacks from the seasonal snack bar, there’s something for everyone. The aquatics offerings go beyond traditional lap swimming to include Aqua Zumba, water polo, masters swimming, a relaxing hot tub, and a kiddie pool.
3. Fitness Programs
Tennis and pickleball courts invite friendly competition, and the state-of-the-art fitness center overlooking the pool and the lake provides modern amenities for all levels of workout enthusiasts. In the summer, youth programs—from aquatics to tennis to Kids Camp—bring energy and joy to the Club grounds.
4. Beach & Boating
Mercerwood Shore Club recently upgraded its waterfront with brand-new docks and expanded boat moorage, enhancing the overall lake access experience. These improvements not only boost convenience and aesthetics but also reflect the Club’s commitment to sustainability. The grated decking design reduces harsh shadows over the water, aiding fish health, and updated boat ramp materials help protect the lakebed
5. Club House and Socials
As the needs of its members evolved, so did Mercerwood Shore Club. In 2015, the club undertook a significant renovation, demolishing the original clubhouse to make way for a modern facility that better served its community.
The modern clubhouse serves as the social heart of the community, hosting events, classes, and celebrations for adults, families, and youth throughout the year. Whether it’s a holiday parties, fitness challenge, or family movie night, there’s always something happening at Mercerwood.
6. A Legacy of Community and Tradition
Today, Mercerwood Shore Club remains a testament to the enduring values of connection, wellness, and tradition. With membership capped at 375 families, it fosters a close-knit community where everyone knows your name—and your favorite swim lane. Whether you’re looking to make new friends, stay active, or create memories with your family, Mercerwood Shore Club is where it all comes together.
