[quote=Anonymous]It depends on what you are looking for. If you're looking for a place to simply swim in the summer, either would be a great option. If you're within certain neighborhoods, either is walkable (e.g. Potomac Hills for Highlands or parts of Franklin Park for Chesterbrook) which could be key depending on your kids ages. As others have mentioned, friends at the pool is a great thing as it can become a destination in the summer. Chesterbrook opens their waitlist every year and you have a "better" chance for membership, especially if you are an established swimming family looking to join a club. As others have mentioned, the swim team is very competitive. Highlands will have a traditional waitlist and is also in the same NVSL swimming division 1, but much less intense for swim team. If you're not interested in summer swim for competitive reasons, either is really a great option. We know many families at both clubs and all are happy there. Highlands is truly a beautiful pool with towering trees all around and it does feel like an escape. Chesterbrook has new pool facilities but is on a major road. There are other pools in McLean as well - McLean Swim and Tennis, Kent Gardens and Tuckahoe. I think all of them have waitlists, so if you're interested, I'd put your name on as soon as possible.
