Membership

Welcome to Bayview Yacht Club, one of the most storied and historical sailing clubs in the nation.  Founded in 1915 in a small boathouse on Motorboat Lane, Bayview moved to our current location at 100 Clairpointe Street in 1935.  In June of 2021 Bayview completed a state of the art 12,791 square foot, $5 million clubhouse featuring multiple restaurants, two bars, flexible banquet space, and a second story deck for outdoor dining.  The clubhouse takes full advantage of the water’s edge location with panoramic views of Belle Isle, Downtown Detroit, and Canada.  Our new clubhouse has been specifically designed as a first-class venue to promote daily camaraderie, the expansion of membership, and the sport of sailing.
