Why chesapeake yacht club?

A Hidden Gem on the Chesapeake

Chesapeake Yacht Club combines resort-style amenities with a true sense of belonging. Whether you’re a seasoned boater or new to the water, you’ll find everything you need —

and people who feel like lifelong friends.

Membership Benefits

Floating Docks

CYC offers state-of-the-art floating and fixed docks with deep-water slips that can accommodate boats up to 70 feet, including catamarans. Our marina is designed for easy docking, stable access, and peace of mind every time you tie up.

Safe Haven

Nestled off the West River, our harbor is naturally protected and professionally maintained. With hurricane-rated docks, modern storm-prep systems, and on-site staff year-round, your boat — and your investment — is always in good hands.

Family & Pet Friendly

From the Junior Fleet Room to the waterfront swimming pool, and from pet-friendly picnic pads to family BBQs, CYC makes boating a shared experience. It’s a club where children grow up on the docks and pets are part of the adventure.

CYC Events

From summer pool parties and docktail socials to live music and holiday gatherings, CYC hosts events that bring members together all year long. Whether it’s a casual evening by the firepit or a themed dining event, every event celebrates friendship, fun, and life on the Chesapeake.

Fuel Dock & Services

Members enjoy discounted fuel, free pump-outs, and access to trusted marine service partners just steps away. Whether you need routine maintenance or last-minute repairs, we make keeping your boat ready, simple and stress-free.

Reciprocal Privileges

Your CYC membership gives you reciprocal access through the Yachting Club of America, opening doors to premier clubs and marinas around the Bay and across the country. Cruise, dock, and dine wherever your travels take you.

Dining & Social Life

Enjoy our members-only pub with a full bar and casual dining, plus regular social nights, live music, and outdoor gatherings around the firepit. At CYC, boating is just the start — the friendships are what keep members coming back.

Clean & Well Kept Grounds

Our members take pride and enjoy one of the cleanest, best-kept clubs on the Chesapeake. From manicured landscaping to spotless facilities and friendly, attentive staff — every corner of CYC reflects the care of its community.

Member Ownership

CYC is a member-owned club, giving every shareholder a voice in the club’s direction. You’re not just renting a slip — you’re investing in a community and gaining equity in a premier Chesapeake Bay destination.

Testimonials

Definitely a hidden gem on the Chesapeake Bay. The members are so friendly and genuine, and the staff is truly exceptional—they go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. Highly recommend.

As a member for 4 years, my husband and I have been impressed with the welcoming culture of the CYC members and the quality of the daily operations performed by club staff. Each year, the club seems to get better!

Darcy Scott

CYC Member

We've been members for 5 years and the membership is very warm and welcoming. We trailer our boat, but the pool, dining room and grounds make it a great place to come whether on land or sea. Come for the view, stay for the friendships!
