[quote=Anonymous]We had a great time there for a couple 4th of July parties, DH played tennis a lot and occasional golf, and we went for dinner maybe 3 times over 4 years, before going inactive last year when our monthly dues went to over $500/month.  It was mostly DH's thing--he likes a country club vibe, while I don't.  He wanted to go for dinner and dinner events, while when we ever got a night out, I wanted to go DC. We have young kids, both work a lot, and it's a 30 minute drive to the club, so we almost never went.  I think we may get more use out of it when the kids are older (tennis teams, swim teams, activities), but we'll see. It's really beautiful, the facilities are wonderful (and everything so new!) and people are friendly, but I can't say I enjoyed the food the handful of times we went.

We joined when DH was under 35 and an officer. I think initiation was around $3-4000, absolutely cheap for CC membership. Dues we're ok until he turned 35 or 36, when they jumped to 500+.  If you live nearby, I bet you'd get a lot out of it. If it's a hassle to get kids ready and drive there, you may find yourselves like us and barely using it.

And to the PP, no, it's nothing like an officer's club. It's a true country club--a very nice one. Initiation costs for non-mil types is through the roof, but many find it completely worth it. It's the closest CC to the city. [/quote]
