We were there with our RV and other friends with their RVs, and friends on their boat. We had an excellent time 7/3-7. Kent Island Yacht Club is so beautiful and everyone is so friendly. Also, we went to the club on Thursday night for dinner. On Saturday night they had a band outside and they were good and a lot of fun. Thank you to Coy and his crew as the campground area is so nice and spacious. (PS We used to all have boats and come to KIYC and now we have RVs and are so happy that you guys allow RVs.) Thanks again.

Access to a dump station would be the only improvement. Otherwise a great stay.

Another great stay at the Kent Island Yacht Club. The Commodore personally came out to visit and help with the lines. Currents can be a little tricky so it’s best to use spring lines in both directions. Local area is great with close access to many nice restaurants,

We pulled into one of the most southerly slips just south of the walk to the front door of the clubhouse. This slip is cross current. The wind came up from the south and with an ebb current created a lot of rocking and rolling.
Make sure you tie up in a location allowing current parallel to the boat.
Very nice club with great facilities.

They made us feel right at home, as if we at our home yacht club. Several members welcomed us and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Nice facilities. Good food. Friendly people! Well be back!!
But, beware of the current!! Docking at full ebb or flood can be extremely challenging!!

My second time here, and another fantastic stay. I brought my daughter and son-in-law this time, and they had a great time at the pool.(which is a beautiful saltwater pool) my daughter attended a large paddle boat race here, and had a fantastic time. This Yacht Club post many wonderful events each year, and I plan on visiting as many as I can. The members here are unfailingly polite and helpful. I was here for two nights, and again, I had a wonderful time. Highly recommended...

Thank you so much for your kind words. We enjoyed having you here with us. See you soon!by Scott M. - Verified user on Jul 10, 2024
We were just there over the fourth of July weekend (2024) and had an awesome time. We have been there by boat many times - this year we took our RV and had a blast in spite of the oppressive heat. We went with a group of our boating friends that now own RVs. The camp sites are lovely, and most are located right on or a "stone's throw" away from the water. We had a joyful time watching the boats pass through. Music on Friday and Saturday night - we danced and had a grand time. Also has an outside tiki bar serving wonderful crushes and a swimming pool with a bar. Great time! We WILL be back!

We enjoyed our two day stay here! Very friendly staff, nice facility and very close to a number of great restaurants. Docks were in great shape, good water pressure, no issues with electric and a decent bathroom/ shower facility. There is a pool on site and a restaurant and bar as well!

Commodore Jeff and his wife Stacey made us feel right at home! Great place. Will definitely visit again.
About Kent Island Yacht Club
Our beautiful location along the Kent Narrows is a wonderful place to dock your boat!
Transients are welcome to an overnight or weekend stay at our private club or you can join KIYC to enjoy our club year-round and get a full lease (April 1st thru March 31st.) at a very reasonable rate or discounted transient rates. KIYC is easy to get to by car and puts you close to so much by boat. In addition to dockage, we now have 15 RV parking sites available for KIYC Members, Member quest and Reciprocating Yacht Clubs. RV sites are listed as moorings.
By boat, KIYC is just 11 miles from either Rock Hall to its north or Saint Michaels to its south. With Chester and Corsica rivers just to its north and Eastern Bay, Wye and Miles rivers to its south you can pick your game whether you want to fish, crab, sail, anchor out, visit historic towns, etc, etc. Knapps Narrows is just a short jump and Oxford just beyond that. Approximately 21 miles to Baltimore for City life with Aquarium, Museums, etc or to Annapolis with Naval Academy and all it has going on. Want to go further, you have the entire Chesapeake Bay at your call.
Afterward you can cruise back to KIYC to lay back and relax at an Eastern Shore pace while enjoying its serene setting and all the amenities. Close-by, visit the cross island trail, heritage center, environmental center and more. KIYC has very attractive slip rates (membership required) and when you want to visit other areas the list of reciprocal Yacht clubs is very impressive. Make KIYC your home port and truly enjoy all boating has to offer within easy reach.
And our POOL! Enjoy spectacular views of Prospect Bay while you are in our heated saltwater pool (open from April till September) order food from our Kitchen's full menu along with libations from our bar brought to you at the pool. Have fun at the TIKI Bar, sit on the patio or in the Lounge and enjoy a million-dollar view while making friends, eating great food, and partaking in beverages.
Be sure to go to our website www.kiyc.org and check out events to know music, car shows, special events happening.
