Jefferson Yacht Club

Jefferson Yacht Club We are a private yacht club located in the heart of the Nautical Mile in St. Clair Shores. We're open Clair Shores Michigan. The clubhouse is open year round.

The Jefferson Yacht Club was founded in 1957 by a group of boaters with a goal to encourage camaraderie amongst boaters and non-boaters alike along with their friends and families, in an enjoyable setting. In 1962 this group embarked on a mission to build a clubhouse for their group. To this day the clubhouse location remains the same nestled in the heart of the Nautical Mile in St. Over the years

several improvements have been made to the clubhouse. The JYC offers its members many amenities including a pavilion, swimming pool, and outdoor tiki bar in the summer.

Introducing the 2026 Commodore!

Welcome to Jefferson Yacht Club, where you can enjoy our family vibe with your fellow members along with the perks of a private club! A place where there is always a familiar face at the pool or the tiki bar, and the bartender greets you with a smile and your drink as you take a seat!

Our members also enjoy a wide range of entertainment events, fundraisers and holiday parties, from bands and DJs to comedy shows and dueling pianos. We also keep the kids entertained with holiday parties, movie nights, poolside games and more! And there is absolutely no better pool and tiki bar in the city!

Our family of members care for our community too! We regularly host and support a variety of charitable events, from animal rescues to Toys for Tots.

I'm proud to represent the JYC membership as Commodore and encourage you to drop by and see why we say, "JYC is the place to be!".

Warm regards,

Sue VanSteelandt, Commodore

What an amazing event last night!

Dear Gypsies,

It’s not a cliche’ to say that Angels walk amongst us! Last night, we witnessed them in full, take-charge action!!!

The Gypsy Aunt Joyce, drove over to be a part of this fun event at The Jefferson Yacht Club!!! ——Because of her unfamiliarity of the area, the darkness, road construction and, her spunky young age of 90.5, she called up and was lost!!!

Upon hearing this, these two Caseville/St. Clair Shores/Rochester Gypsies, whom I’ve know for years of shopping with me, said….we’re very familiar with the area—-WE’LL GO GET HER! Borrowing my phone, to keep in constant contact with The Aunt, they set off on foot, WALKING DOWN JEFFERSON until they made contact with her!!!!

Jumping in her car & bringing her (smiling) to the Event was priceless!!!

❤️These two Gypsies will forever be my heroes and Angels, in my and my families book!!!

Thank you for the kindness,
Gyps and Aunt Joyce!
