everything was great and the launch drivers were very helpful. Did not use the facilities. Would like to see the club offer a lower price for just the day on a mooring. They only offer an overnight mooring price.

The mooring field is well established, and we never saw less than 11 feet both in the channel approaching the mooring as well as in the mooring field itself. The numbers on the mooring balls, however, are quite confusing, and we needed to be directed to the mooring assignment by the YC launch. Free launches to the Norwalk yacht club as well as to the Rowayton yacht club were a pleasure and allowed us to explore Rowayton for dinner, since there is no quick dinner near the Norwalk yacht club. Overall, it was a pleasurable stay and we would return.

Location a little choppy even with a NE wind. Yacht club and neighborhood beautiful and people very friendly. Launch service great and will drop you either side of harbor. Uber picks up passengers at Yacht club so local transportation is easy. 314 brewery great for beer , live music and pizza!

The club answered our radio call immediately and showed us our mooring shortly thereafter. The launch driver was cheerful and accommodating. We enjoyed having a quiet evening and look forward to going there again.

Fantastic! Friendly, accommodating and very helpful. We loved shuttling back and forth between Rowayton and Wilson Point.

I recently had the pleasure of spending time at the Norwalk Yacht Club, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The club boasts an excellent location, offering beautiful views of the waterfront, which makes it a serene and inviting spot for both members and guests.

First, the reason for 4 stars is strictly personal and doesn’t reflect on this beautiful club. The facilities are great, the club is clean and well kept. There isn’t much to do, the club is surrounded by a neighborhood. It wasn’t for us, it may be good for you.

Professional launch operators and a lovely club house.

A beautiful spot with friendly and helpful staff. Easy to find. The guest moorings are on the outside, could be a bit bumpy if it's blowing. Luckily, it was calm in the evening we were there.

Norwalk Yacht Club is a low key, fun, family Club.

Had a great night at NYC. Staff was amazing. Eduardo was super accommodating and even got us back to our boat after hours! Will be back.

We had planned on staying two nights because we have family that live around the corner on Bell island, but was taken back by the 70.00 mooring fee, it communicates to us that they do not really want transient boaters. I would understand at a destination

by David S. - Verified user on Aug 15, 2023

Nice club. Moorings we’re a bit exposed. We had a pretty bumpy night as a significant storm passed over.

by Mark S. - Verified user on Aug 03, 2023

Nice but bounced during southerly

A very family-oriented Yacht Club with a beautiful Clubhouse. Excellent launch staff that makes sure you're all setup with clean pendant from the mooring ball. No bar, and on our visit the staff could not sell ice or water to non-members. The mooring field could be a little rocky due to the powerboat traffic. Large, extremely clean showers are available. Grills are available for visiting yachtsmen. The membership made everyone feel very welcomed. Launch service offered to a neighboring Rowayton YC where you can find some very nice local restaurants withing 0.5 to 0.8 miles.
