Country Club of Detroit

Established in 1897 in Grosse Pointe Farms, the Country Club of Detroit maintains a distinguished private racquets tradition just northeast of Detroit. The tennis program centers around meticulously maintained outdoor Har-Tru clay courts alongside dedicated platform tennis courts for year-round play. Members experience a competitive yet welcoming sporting atmosphere, with active interclub leagues, member-guest tournaments, and casual weekend round-robins. Playing on sub-irrigated clay reduces joint impact and encourages strategic baseline rallies during the spring and summer seasons. Heated platform courts take over in the colder months, complete with exterior lighting for evening matches. Court reservations run through the member portal and racquets desk, ensuring structured court access and minimal wait times. Beyond the lines, players gather on the courtside terrace, reflecting the club's enduring athletic heritage and close-knit community.
