The Swim Club at Cordillera Ranch is the place to be for sunning, relaxing, dining, exercising, playing games and simply enjoying the pleasures of summer.
As the summer heats up and the pools open, the Swim Club provides the ideal setting to escape. Perfectly perched on one of the highest points of the Ranch, overlooking the Guadalupe River Valley, the Swim Club offers awe-inspiring views and a casual atmosphere for entertaining. Sun worshippers and recreational swimmers alike will be refreshed by the turquoise waters of the pool, or escape to the adults-only negative-edge pool for pure relaxation and a refreshment from the new El Norte Patio Bar. Kids will have a great time playing in the Kiddie Pool and taking a ride down the water slide. And while lounging by the pool, enjoy poolside service from our staff.
