The Maryland Yacht Club was an excellent stop for us. The fixed docks are protected from wind and wake and are in good repair. The facilities were very nice with easy access to shower/heads and free laundry. Very secure, located at the end of a peninsula with gated access. Very quiet setting with nice grounds and pool during open days. The fuel dock is easily accessible and open 4 days a week and the young men managing it do an outstanding job. Excellent communications with the Club Commodore (Sean). We had an extended 6 day stay to visit family in the area over Independence Day and the fireworks around the bay were fantastic. We will certainly return when in the area again. Highly recommended.

Sean was more than helpful when we "escaped" the inner harbor and needed temporary dock space.

I concur with all of the excellent comments already given.
Maryland Yacht Club is a very reasonably priced fueling station for both gasoline and diesel fuel.
They were the hosting marina for the 30th ANNIVERSARY of the MTOA in 2021. Excellent!

Stayed September 9 thru 14, 2021. We were there for the MTOA National Rendezvous. Very nice marina with outstanding views from the club house. Would stay again if in the area.

Maryland Yacht Club is great. We enjoy the wide fairways and generous slips as well as the amenities. The club is very family-friendly and is always busy with social events and many other fun activities for adults and kids. We love to bring our family to the pool, have parties in the pavilion and hang out in the club house.

Just inside the entrance to Rock Creek to port, the approach is easy and the water depth is any where from 12 to 15 feet, just make a gentle turn to port once past the channel and the spit and beach that parallels the channel. You cannot miss the brilliant blue roofed Pavilion emblazoned with a bright yellow MYC that sits right by the water and beach area. The piers are traditional fixed piers, in good repair and consistantly being checked for any issues. Assistance with docking is readily available, the Basin Manager is a liveaboard and the entire facility is very secure with an electric gate and nice lighting. The pool area is fun and the showers and washers and dryers work well. An easy and fun marina on the Bay.....don‘t miss this one!

The hospitality and attention to extraordinary customer service at Maryland Yacht Club is top notch. We called ahead with our special requests and were accommodated with ease. It was a crowded week due to the Annapolis Boat Shows and two special events at the club, but they worked us in and made us feel right at home. As a private club, the members assist in managing the facilities. We were on a tight schedule and needed fuel before our early morning departure, so the fuel dock was opened for a few minutes the night before for us. A frontal passage during the week we were there blew winds out of the ENE at 15-20. The docks are tucked in at the bottom of a large hill and well protected. We barely felt a breeze. The approach up the Patapsco River and then into Rock Creek is easy and well marked. Keep an eye out for White Rock Light, an interesting formation for the Chesapeake Bay. Guests are welcome at the Yacht Club and facilities for provisioning and dining out are close by, but you will need to get a ride. The club is off the beaten path, which is the way we like it! Quiet, safe and secure. Thank you Maryland Yacht Club. Hope to see you next year.
