The 3,200 square foot saltwater pool is available for general water recreation. Lap swimming in 25 meter
lanes will be offered at designated times. There is no diving board.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the pool will be heated for seasonal swimming.
Are families welcome at MB&RC?
Absolutely. The pool and changing facilities are family friendly. In fact, there is a special changing room just
for families. There is also a splash area adjacent to the pool for children and adults alike to cool off in, with
family cabanas nearby to get out of the sun.
Is there food and beverage service at the pool?
Yes, there is a full restaurant at the pool and servers can bring food and drink to Members at their lounge
chairs or rented cabanas. There is also the option to eat at a table, indoors or out. No outside food or drink,
please!
Is there a dress code?
Members are required to wear shirts and shoes when eating at the indoor restaurant and using the Club
facility.
Can I use my iPhone, iPad or laptop at MB&RC?
The MB&RC provides wireless access. Electronic devices are discouraged in the private dining room and in
the Club room. This policy applies to guests of Members as well.
What is the application process?
Just fill out the application process online or print and mail it to us along with a $50 non-refundable
Membership processing fee and name of a current Member who will serve as your sponsor. Memberships will
be reviewed on a monthly basis by our Advisory Committee who will make official offers of Membership.
How many memberships are being offered at the MB&RC?
Membership at MB&RC is limited. At the current time we estimate that we will cap Memberships at 500
Members. We will monitor the use of the pool, dining room and Club room and may re-adjust the total
number of Memberships based on usage patterns.
Do I have to live at Mixson to join Mixson Bath & Racquet Club?
Residents of Mixson and non-residents alike are invited to become Members of Mixson Bath & Racquet
Club.
What is the annual membership fee?
There are two main classes of Membership: Mixson Resident and Charleston Resident. For Mixson
Residents, Family Membership is $600 per year, Dual is $480 and Individual is $360 per year. For
Charleston Residents, Family Membership is $720 per year, Dual is $600 and Individual is $480 per year.
Annual Membership fees can be paid in full for a 5% discount or in monthly installments. The Membership
Director can provide additional information about seasonal Memberships for those who are part-time
Charleston residents.
Is there an initiation fee?
Yes, there is a one-time lifetime initiation fee to join Mixson Bath & Racquet Club. Initiation fees are $1,000
for Family Memberships, $750 for Dual and $500 for Individual.
There is an initial offering period where the initiation fee is being waived. Once an offer of Membership is
made, there will be thirty days to pay a minimum deposit of $200 on their initiation fee, if applicable, or the
Membership will be offered to the next person on the list. The balance of the initiation fee can be paid in full
on the first month of Membership for a 5% discount or in monthly installments.
What is the guest policy?
Guest will be admitted to the pool only when accompanied by a Member and after registration at the
Manager’s office and payment of the appropriate guest fee.
While MB&RC is intended primarily for use by our paid Membership, we are fully aware that many
Members wish to share the MB&RC experience with family and friends who are not Members. Some of
these individuals may even be on our waiting list. While current policy does not limit the number of times an
individual or family may be invited as guests, the policy was not intended to result in Members consistently
bringing the same non-Members to the pool on a regular basis. The initiation and annual fees paid by
Members come with certain privileges that should rightfully be reserved as an expectation of Membership.
As stewards of MB&RC, we ask that Members continue to be mindful of the spirit in which the party and
guest policies were drafted and join us in helping to preserve their integrity. If current policies continue to be
ignored or abused, more restrictive policies will be considered.
is membership transferable?
Membership is not transferable. A Member may cancel his or her subscription at the end of the calendar
year and that Membership will not be renewed for the following year. If a Member chooses to cancel before
the end of the calendar year, he or she is still responsible for the balance of the annual fee during that year.
Are there any other rules?
No smoking except in designated areas, no pets and no glassware at the pool! See the House Rules for a
complete list of Club policies.
