A party venue.
With a swim club attached.
The clubhouse seats 100 indoors, with its own bar and a chef in the kitchen — open year-round for showers, birthdays and dinners. After 7pm in summer, the pools and the lawn open up too, for as many as 500.
Thursday to Sunday evenings go first, and Saturdays and holidays carry a premium. Members and non-members welcome.
Every venue rents you a room. Ours opens onto a swim club.
The clubhouse does what a banquet room does — a hundred seats, its own bar, a chef in the kitchen behind it. The difference is the doors at the back, and what is on the other side of them: water, lawn, courts and open air, on 500 guests’ worth of property.
- Guests spread out. They move between the room, the deck and the air outside instead of sitting at one table for three hours.
- Every age has somewhere to be. Seating and quiet indoors for the grandparents, somewhere to run for everybody under twelve.
- It books all year. The clubhouse does not close in October, which is why a February shower is a normal booking here.
What are you celebrating?
Each of these has its own page, because a bridal shower and a company picnic are not the same conversation.
Is your date open?
It takes us about a minute to find out, and it costs nothing to ask. Most venue shoppers contact three or four places on the same afternoon — the one that answers first usually gets the booking. We try to be that one.
What you are actually renting.
The clubhouse seats up to 100 and books year-round, day or evening. From May to September the members are done at 7pm — after that the pools, the lawn and the clubhouse are yours alone, for up to 500.
The Clubhouse
The event room, and the reason most people book here: its own bar, wood floors, doors onto the deck, and seating for up to 100. It runs day or evening, all year, and it is where a shower, a communion lunch or a company dinner actually happens.
Three Pools
A lap pool, a slide pool, and a kiddie pool. Three bodies of water means the adults, the teenagers, and the toddlers all get their own, instead of negotiating over one.
The Open Lawn
Room for tents, games, dessert tables, a dance floor, or a hundred people standing around with drinks. The part of the property that turns a pool into a venue.
Sport Courts
Basketball and handball courts on site — the difference between a party kids leave early and one they have to be dragged out of.
Café & Kitchen
A working kitchen with our own chef in it. Your menu is cooked here and served here, not driven in and reheated.
Good parties need great food.
Most venues rent you a room and hand you a list of outside caterers. Our kitchen is on site, which means the food comes out hot, the menu gets built around your event instead of picked off a laminated sheet, and there is one person to call if something changes.
Five steps, and the first takes thirty seconds.
Check your date
Send the date, a rough headcount, and the kind of event. Takes thirty seconds and costs nothing.
We answer within one business day

Walk the property
Come see it. Standing on the deck tells you more in five minutes than any gallery will.

Our chef builds the menu with you. You get one number covering space, food, staff, setup, and breakdown.
Hold the date
Sign, deposit, done. From there we handle the day and you handle the guest list.
Everything people ask before they call.
No. Private events at Howell Pointe are open to members and non-members alike.
Two answers, because there are two spaces. The clubhouse seats 100 at tables — that covers most showers, birthdays, communions and dinners, and it books day or evening all year. With the grounds open we go to 500, which is how schools, camps and big evening parties use the property.
Private use of your space for your window, seating, your menu cooked by our on-site chef, and setup and breakdown by our staff. What "your space" means depends on which of the four ways you book — the clubhouse, the whole club after 7pm, a roped-off poolside area in the daytime, or a group buyout for a block of hours. Everything is confirmed in writing in your quote.
Yes, and the clubhouse is the reason. It runs all year, day or evening, seating up to 100 with its own bar — so a February shower or a December company dinner is a normal booking, not an exception. What changes in winter is the pools, which close; the grounds are still there, and we can add heated tented space on the deck if you want the outdoors as well.
Yes — DJs, photographers, florists, and bakers are welcome. Tell us who you are bringing when you inquire so we can coordinate access and setup time.
Yes, after 7pm. Between May and September the club belongs to its members through the day, so a full buyout runs in the evening — from 7 to 11 the pools, deck, lawn and clubhouse are yours alone, for up to 500 guests. Schools, camps and clubs also take the property for a block of hours by arrangement, which is busiest at the end of the school year. In the daytime during summer we can still run your party in a roped-off poolside area without a buyout.
Thursday through Sunday evenings are what we hold for private events, with Saturdays and holidays carrying a premium. Those are also the first dates to go, so if you have a Saturday in mind it is worth asking early.
You move inside. The indoor event room seats your party with its own bar and doors onto the deck, so a wet forecast changes the room rather than the date. We confirm the weather plan in writing with your quote, and you will see both options on your tour.
We are at 22 Howell Road, Freehold NJ 07728, with on-site parking for your guests. One thing worth telling your guests: the club sits in Howell Township but carries a Freehold mailing address, so use the full address above in your GPS rather than searching by town.
Send your date, headcount, and the kind of event through the form on this page, or call (732) 414-2172. You get a real quote back, not a starting-at number.
