This is a very worthwhile stay on cruise of this area. The Yacht Club dock staff is very courteous & helpful, and the docks & facilities are good. The small town of Stonington is the reason to visit. This small town simply gushes with New England charm. The few blocks of commercial stores offer a fun (though limited) variety of things to poke your head into, and there's a few nice restaurants nestled among them. Be forewarned: Monday - the day we visited - most of the restaurants are closed. Happily, the Dog Watch Cafe (nestled in one of the marinas) had a VERY good lunch, along with a fair-priced wine list, including some nice rosé wine choices that we appreciated. The yacht club itself is a nice new building with very clean & new facilities. Note, though, that it is a bit of a walk away from the docks, up a short drive & across the street, and that it must be open in order to access rest rooms & showers. It opens at 8:30am weekdays, which might affect your departure plans, or overnight needs. Next time we're cruising through this area, the only reason we wouldn't stop here is if we wanted to explore another town nearby. Otherwise, it's a worthy stop.

A great location with very friendly staff. A short walk to a variety of shops, restaurants and historic homes. For us it’s the halfway point between Newport and our home port in Essex. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a delightful stay in Stonington at the Stonington Harbor Yacht Club. We cam in during a miserable storm with very rough conditions and late. Yet Club members and staff cam to catch our lines and help us tie our boat up. We had dinner at the club and were delighted with our meal. We also were very happy to run into and join boating friends at dinner. The next days we enjoyed exploring Stonington and it restaurant, stores, beautiful parks and wonderful historic nomes.

I would definitely return. Tricia in office was very helpful. The free ice was a first for me! I wish the building was open after 4:30. No heads or showers!! Only 2 suggestions: -some dock pedestal lights not functioning makes tripping more likely -lack of trash barrel anywhere near docks, how come?
Marina Response:
We are glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to seeing you again. Thank you for bringing the lighting issue to my attention, I will certainly have someone take a look at it. We do have a small garbage area to the left of the docks at the end of the parking lot, my apologies for not ensuring you were show where it is located. - Tricia
