The Sun Deck
ENJOY EVERY MOMENT.
Nowhere else in Chicago can you find 60,000 square feet of inviting, landscaped outdoor space—four stories high. The Club’s urban oasis boasts an adult pool for lap swimming, a smaller multi-use pool, and ample space and physically distanced chaise lounges for relaxing on a beautiful day. Views from the Sundeck are breathtaking; there simply is no better place to be in Chicago during the summer.
But the Sun Deck is more than just an inviting space to relax and enjoy the weather - the Sun Deck Cafe features a menu of freshly grilled hamburgers, tacos, hot dogs, salads, sandwiches, frozen treats, and much more, and the Pool Bar offers specialty summer cocktails.
