My family (husband and a 6 year old girl) will be moving to North Raleigh at the beginning of June and are looking for a nice family swim club to join. Could you provide us some information on nice clubs in north Raleigh?
North Raleigh Swim Club and Falls River Swim Club are both very nice and family friendly. Falls River probably being the nicer of the two but NRSC is still nice as well.
Also the new Lifetime Fitness has an awesome pool.
It might be cheaper to join it and knock out both a gym membership and swim membership in one payment.
Try also Healthtrax Fitness and Wellness (8300 Health Park, Suite 125) for both swim and gym options. Healthtrax has saline lap pool, sauna, whirlpool, steam room, court sports, over 60 group fitness classes weekly, all manner of cardio vascular and resistance training equipment. Call 919-847-2393 and ask for Felicia.
Agreed; probably 75% of Raleigh's real estate could be considered "north Raleigh" (north of 440).
Yes, but for purposes of driving to a swim club, almost any part of the area you refer to is easily accessible to any other part of the area, unless you're necessarily fighting rush hour traffic (probably not for recreational activities). The OP didn't mention the need to walk or bike to the pool. I think being more specific about which area of N. Raleigh makes sense when talking about looking for homes, work commutes, etc. but for most folks with a car adding another 3-5 minutes to go to one area versus another isn't going to matter much.
Also it seems that many folks are starting to refer to the area near 440 as midtown these days.
Thanks for all your feedback. The area we are moving to is around Norwood Rd and Creedmoor Rd intersection.
