Short Hills Club members consider the club an "oasis" in their busy lives. Whether dining casually or formally, poolside or lakefront, members of all ages enjoy a meal at their home away from home. Friday evening pub nights have become a club tradition with members stopping by to catch up on the week and for a drink and/or dinner.
For generations, the social life of the club has also encompassed athletics and friendly competition. Members use the club's five lighted paddle tennis courts, seven tennis courts, and two squash courts for lessons, clinics, league and tournament play, and casual games amongst friends.
