Reviews of Westwood Country Club in Vienna

[Anonymous]

We are considering joining to take advantage of the under 40 initiation fee. We have three kids who all love golf and swimming. My husband is an avid golfer. I would probably use the gym.

Tours right now are obviously not really possible - my husband was able to play the course, but none of the kids stuff/restaurant/gym is open, so hard to gauge. Anybody a member/former member?
Thanks in advance!

My friends all seem to like it, the pool is large and has a bar. The swim team seems to get a lot of kids. The restaurant is pretty good, we've been a few times and its ok, typical country club food, they have theme nights and a buffet and a bar. They have a kids club babysitting room which is nice to have, they will order dinner for the kids. The gym looks ok in passing, but I've never used it, but some of my friends did go there regularly.

Overall the pool at Riverbend is a little nicer but its not quite as large.

It depends how much your kids want to swim on a swim team with kids they know from their local schools. My cousin left Westwood’s team because they were missing out on seeing their friends at summer swim and found the social aspect of a Vienna team much better.

Were members there for 10 years, they run the place like a prison. Have a “disciplinary committee” that suspends members constantly. They literally look for reasons to kick people out to collect more initiation fees.
Many better & well run clubs in the Northern Virginia area

It's a nice place. I'd join, but the drive bombed from Oakton to Arlington could be problematic...
