The Marlboro Yacht Club

Update. Stopped here for the 3rd time. Great time again. Still the best people. Too many to name. We are so happy to see them welcoming so many transient boaters and loopers. We the best looper gatherings on the porch of the clubhouse with 5loop boars that we've experienced in 9 years. The club members were amazing hosts. May 2025: The Universe was good to us! We stopped for a night and stayed for weeks - yes, plural weeks. We were having transmission trouble for longer than I care to admit. It was time to cross the Rubicon, and the stars aligned and pretty much forced us to land us at MYC! The best thing that happened to us. I can't say enough about the people. Over the top accommodating. Over the top helpful. Over the top fun. Lots of legit knowledge that is shared openly if you want, but not thrust upon you unwelcomed. The setting is beautiful. The facilities are beautiful (bathrooms, clubhouse, pool, party pavilion, fire pit area). They have a travel lift and a full service marina next door. The view of the river is outstanding. You should always be able to find someone here. Weekends you'll be greeted by more people than you've ever been greeted by before. Yes, there are trains, you can't get away from them anywhere on the Hudson nor the Erie Canal. You're just going to have to get used to it! The boat clubs on the Hudson River are a welcome, and refreshing change from stuffy marinas. Give them a shot. Particularly MYC! If you're lucky, you'll come across one of their many fun events! MYC is now in our short list of "regular stops". Thank you, MYC!

This was a very lovely YC to stay at. Everyone was so nice and helpful. The Fleet Capt, Matt, drove us to town and had some great dinner recommendations.

We stayed 1 night then decided to stay a whole week. We were greeted by helpful members who secured our boat. The next morning they arranged a fuel truck who provided first class fueling services at a great price. We spent time meeting the amazing community of proud invested members. It’s is amazing the effort they put into their space, boats and most noticeably their connections with one another. Loopers are welcomed with open arms. After receiving some great ideas, we rented a car (a club member gave us a ride to the rental facility) to go hiking, biking on the walk over The Hudson. Two trips to the culinary Institute. Two trips to a nearby winery and two trips to Planet fitness. The FDR home and library was very interesting to wander during today’s time. They are such nice, fun, and caring people, we hope we get to stay there again someday.

Great community! Very helpful. Convenient place to grab provisions/laundry etc. would stop again if in the area.

Hands down the friendliest Gettin' Loopy marina experience on the Hudson. Radioed in as we got close and before we knew it, 5–6 guys appeared at the dock like a pit crew on race day ready to catch lines and get us tied up. Instant VIP treatment. They had an indoor bar and reception area, tiki hut, pool and great camaraderie, new friends, and dock talk. 🍹 Thank you Kyra for spoiling us!

Second visit here, great club, great members, floating docks, good water depth at dock, good WIFI. Third visit, great stop.

What a beautiful little spot! These people take a lot of pride in their marina. There is a brand-new pool, a nice patio area and fire pit, as well as keypad entries into the bathroom/showers and onto the docks for security. We felt very welcomed and the hospitality was wonderful. This was our first time sleeping on our boat with our whole family and it went very well with the water and electric hookups. Everything was clean and well cared for. It was a little loud at night with the freight trains running close to the marina, but that is the case along this whole stretch of the river, not just this marina. This is member-run so the restaurant/bar is not always open, but there are ample places to order out from just up the hill from the marina. Some of the members were also very helpful, giving us tips on how and when we should navigate through the locks up into Mechanicville. Overall, a very nice stay and beautiful views! Thank you!

Great place great people good amenities

Matt and Gary are the guys you want greeting you as you come into the Marina! Personable. Relatable. Fun. And avid boaters themselves. Quick to grab a line coming into the gas dock to providing lines at slip for our stay. Matt was extremely accommodating and friendly The Yacht Club is a 5 star club. Pool. Fire pit. Bar. Porch. Party patio. Ice machine. Amazing members. I only wish we lived closer so we could visit more often. Fuel dock is easy access as well. Located right on the Hudson River I highly recommend you make this a stop on your journey. Stay a few nights and enjoy the mountains, wineries and people !!! A++++

What a great place, they always say it’s the people that make a place special and they are so right. All the yacht club members were so nice and super helpful.

This was a great place to stay based on the people alone. We were greeted by six members. We walked up the hill several times and were stopped several times and offered rides.

Phenomenal location! We we definitely return. Safe, clean. friendly and helpful with a lot of amenities. Perfect to see West Point and the Culinary Institute of America (as well as many other attractions).

This is a member owned, member operated yacht club. They have no employees. Members of the club met us, helped us do a pump out and get tied up in the slip. The pump out machinery is in great shape. On Dockwa, a slip for a 38 footer with two 30 amp wires was $124. The bathroom facilities are top notch. Very good floating docks. They pull them out each fall and put them out in the spring. They try to put transients wherever it makes most sense. They gave us several choices. They advertised Wi-Fi, but I could not connect. We encountered 14-15 people while there. Every single one of them greeted us and welcomed us. One gave us a tour and another tried to buy me a beer at the club bar. If I lived in the area, I’d join in a heartbeat!

Members are very welcoming. Lots of folks met us to help get into ybe dock. Thier pumpout system was fantastic. We were invited to movie night at club. Srvefal members offered transportation to town. Town is about .9 mi to town and a fairly steep climb. Seversl restaurants and a small market in town. Highly reccomend!

Great stop! We were greeted by 2 members at the docks and they even offered to buy the first round at the Yacht Club bar! As boat owners themselves they knew what we needed to know (tide, current, wind, wake, etc) to tie up safely. Fuel, pump out and ice are readily available. River side marinas are all capable of getting some bounce to the boats and this one is the same. But it is limited to the working day and does not continue overnight. We slept like babies after a good quality mooring and simple traditional fenders. We will stop here on every trip thru the middle Hudson River!.

These guys are the best. The Commodore John is one of the nicest people I have met on The Loop. Their staff of support people are also great. Within 30 minutes of our arrival, we had been greeted by at least 10 members. We drank with them, had dinner with them, and watched movies with the members of MYC.

The members here are very welcoming and helpful. Great stop.

Excellent marina.! The staff and members are very friendly and helpful. The club building and bathrooms are modern, clean and well equipped. Easy off and back on the Hudson and side ties on the transient dock. Had mechanical issues after leaving and called John who directed me to a mechanic who was able to fix the problem. Highly recommend!

We had the nicest stay at Marlboro Yacht Club - the members that greeted us could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We went into town and ate at the Brix - very delicious food! We really recommend this club - I only hope our home club is as welcoming

Outstanding members, docks, and clubhouse & pool. Pumpout works great also. A Looper's must stop❣️

Very friendly and accommodating folks at this yacht club. Beautiful clubhouse and grounds. Thoroughly enjoyed out stay here.

You guys are the best, thank you so much.

We stayed 2 nights at the Marlboro Yacht Club as we were in the area on our Loop trip. Sean, the harbor host, communicated early and tracked our inbound progress through NEBO. Two members greeted us at the fuel dock and then caught lines at our slip. Within the first hour, we were welcomed by nearly every member who was on the property. We were offered rides for provisions, tools for any maintenance needs, and help as needed. The club had a cookout event that night (Saturday) and members not only invited us to attend, but came to our boat and insisted that we join them. This club made us feel part of the family from the moment we arrived. Their facilities, floating docks, and fuel dock were outstanding. Long story short - this was the most welcoming and fun group of people that we had met at any yacht club during our travels. The Commodore and his wife ( John & Rose) were excellent hosts and ensured that we were introduced to everyone. We had such a great evening ! MYC has our highest Recommended! On our next trip, we will definitely be returning … and for a long weekend this time! Thank You - John, Rose, Sean, Matt, Darren, Mike, and everyone who made our stay so enjoyable!

Nice facilities. Nice people. Clean bathrooms. Thank you for sharing your club with us.

Our Marlboro Yacht Club stay was fantastic. The members helped me fuel up and get into my slip. Restrooms are kept very clean and the club members are all really friendly providing suggestions on things to do or restaurants nearby.
