For more than three decades Highlanders have enjoyed the many amenities of the Mountain Laurel Tennis Club.
Don’t let the word “tennis” in its name fool you. It’s not just for tennis enthusiasts. Yes, there are three indoor courts (two hard and one clay, plus two outdoor
clay courts).
Sure, you can still get private or group tennis lessons, taking your game to the next level, or play in the numerous weekly men’s and ladies’ round robins.
But if tennis is not your game, then there is plenty more for you at MLTC. Pickleball is scheduled three days a week on the two indoor pickleball courts or work out in the state-of-the art fitness facility, featuring techno-gym equipment. Soothe sore muscles or do some water aerobics in the indoor heated mineral pool. Whatever the weather, you have 24-hour access to these amenities and more. With a full-service Pro Shop, members have access to a wide variety of leisure apparel, plus sports equipment to keep you on top of your game.
Oh, but this club is so much more than just a place for sports enthusiasts. Mountain Laurel members enjoy the beautifully decorated lounge/dining facilities or utilize the dining room for mahjong, bridge and other games.
The year-round Thursday night dinners are extremely popular as members share their latest adventures. Before dinner, members and their guests play tennis and pickleball, along with casual bridge and other games. The full-service kitchen and a large dining area beckon cooks of all skill levels to show their talents. For those larger parties, members can reserve the lounge/dining room area – so much better than squeezing everyone into that crowded dining room at home.
Winter ACBL sanctioned bridge tournaments are offered November through April. Players compete for highly sought-after master points. The Mountain Laurel Club offers something for everyone – young and old. Check out mountainlaureltennisclub.com or call Club Manager Darren McGillivray at (828) 526-4770 for more information.
The club is located just a few short blocks from downtown. Cool breezes rustle the decades-old trees that surround the facility.
