Jim and the staff were very accommodating to us. We needed help bringing our e-bikes to explore town and Acadia National Park’s Schoodic Peninsula and they accommodated that expeditiously. Comfortable and inviting clubhouse. Unfortunately lunch was not available but plenty of options in town. We can’t wait to return.

Jim, Nathan and Audry were great to us, just as in the past. It is a very nice marina run well by Jim and Nathan. We hated to leave!

Great spot in a beautiful and quiet harbor. Launch service available, but only to 6pm, so you really need your dink. Great cafe in town called The Gallery.. Pretty clubhouse.

Fantastic Staff and great historic Yacht Club. Truly a privilege to stay here.
Winter Harbor is a great town too. It's about a mile from the YC to town, so be prepared to walk or ride (no other options I'm aware of). Great golf course there too and the pool (under reno on our trip) looks amazing.

Our family had such a great day at the Winter Harbor Yacht Club! We received excellent service at the dock unloading our small children and all of their stuff for a day at the pool, including a stroller for a walk to downtown Winter Harbor. Rob was super helpful showing me how to tie up to the mooring. Jim picked us up in a tender and took us back to the mooring at the end of the day. The ride over and back from MDI was gorgeous. It couldn’t have been more perfect! We hope to make this trip every summer and maybe stay overnight next time!

Gorgeous Harbor. Super easy to take the launch to the club with a great lunch spot and pool. Short walk or bike to town, and can take Acadia Shuttle to amazing trails. Bike rentals right in town also. A few little restaurants. Really old school, quaint club.
