Description

If you’re a tennis buff, and the word "love" tugs at more than your heart strings, the Harbor Point Racquet and Beach Club may be the perfect place to celebrate your love match. And even if you’re not a tennis aficionado, you can still score a winning shot by holding an event here.

Tucked at the base of Mill Valley’s rolling hills, the clubhouse is unpretentious and, with its peaked, shake-shingled roof, looks almost like a private residence—albeit one surrounded by tennis courts and a large lap pool. There isn’t actually a beach here as the name suggests, but the glass-and-wood clubhouse sits right at the edge of a lagoon in a quiet unhurried corner of the bay, where sea birds from a nearby preserve loll offshore and there are few reminders of city life.

The main room is intimate and relaxed, yet feels spacious, thanks to an open-beam ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows. There’s an expansive bayview panorama, and if you prefer to do your viewing outside, slip out onto one of the wide decks surrounding the building. For those evenings when it can get chilly on the bay, there are two large stone fireplaces—one in the main room and the other in a smaller adjoining room, an ideal spot in which to set up a buffet.

While most people use the clubhouse for anniversary parties, fundraising events and wedding receptions, small, intimate ceremonies can also be held here. Whatever event you host, you probably won’t have to exhaust your life savings to pay for it. Site manager Bob Kaliski says, "When you come to us, we make a real effort to work within your budget. Our goal is not just to give you a good time, but to give you the best event we can at the best price."
