Great Escape: The Douglaston Club

Whether you are looking for a day out by yourself or one with your family, provides a beautiful and relaxing setting that is ideal for many occasions.

Located at 600 West Drive, the club prides itself as being a “world away in lifestyle,” and offers a variety of program as well as its facilities to its members and their families.

The club, which was founded in 1918, has a rich sports history and has produced champion athletes from its sailing, swimming and tennis programs, some of whom have moved on to successful wins in the Americas Cups and the tennis Grand Slam.

The Douglaston Club also offers top rated cuisine, served by chef Alan Olsen, that can be enjoyed on the club's outdoor verandas. The club's historic manor house, which includes formal fireside tables, provides an old world feel. Visitors can also dine pool side in a shaded patio area.

There are several programs and amenities for children offered at the club. The venue has its own children’s swim team and junior sailing programs, while mooring and launch services are available to members.

The Douglaston Club also has the services and facilities to accommodate members who want to host a summer evening party around the pool or a black tie event in the ballroom.
