Services were good. Only bummer was no restaurant within walking distance.

First time visit this weekend, and this will be our go-to Marina in the future. Great customer service, very responsive. Easy in and out. Very clean facilities. We didn't visit the bar or eat there, but that looked welcoming as well.

We stayed one night. Great marina. Good service, good price on fuel, and very nice grounds and facility. Will plan to stop there again.

We had a sort, but delightful stay at Branford Yacht Club. The dockmaster steam was extremely helpful. The facilities are beautiful. The restrooms and showers are clean and up to date, the best we’ve seen in the two weeks we’ve been underway. If I pass this way again I’ll be sure to stay at Branford Yacht Club!

First visit to the BYC and we were impressed with the facilities and the friendly crew and members.

found the marina an excellent place to relax and enjoy. The bartender and members we spoke to where very friendly. An area for improvement would be to mark the slips so they're visible from the water. Both myself and the boat I traveled with pulled into the wrong slip because they were not marked. The boat I traveled with sustained a small gouge when trying to leave the first slip they entered. Other than that - an excellent place to visit.

Facilities are great as is the staff!

The only thing that was missing was instructions how to get in and out of the club . There is an electronic gate . They were accommodating in letting us in and out but we didn’t know how to handle . Perhaps transients should be given a card or something to operate the gate .Everything else was great !

Absolutely beautiful facility and grounds - possibly the nicest we've used, and friendly service. We needed fuel first and the dock hand came over to help us dock stern-in, not the easiest thing to do with a 44-ft vessel. Shower was also great, spacious and clean. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at Branford YC. Assistance with dock and supplies. Extremely friendly YC members . Bathrooms and showers 4/5. Club members so helpful.bad weather anticipated. I love to stay at YCs as much as possible for this reason. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place to visit

by Alan L. - Verified user on Jul 09, 2023

It was a nice quiet place , the people were amazingly friendly !! Two members offered us a ride to town ! Boat neighbors were soo sweet and kind . Dock staff super helpful. Bar was nice. Very laid back but needed place. Needs a future restaurant or food trucks on weekends would be our recommendation .

A pleasant and friendly place

by Sam C. - Verified user on May 23, 2023

The Branford yacht club manager was very accommodating and helpful. When we came in late after hours, he sent us a nice visual, drawing of exactly where our slip would be for the night. He helped us refuel and get water and ice the next day. it is a very nice quiet, calm location with clean bathrooms, a hot shower, and a good bar. I highly recommend it
