About


In 1944, George J. “Butch” Baudhuin identified Sturgeon Bay’s position between Lake Michigan and Green Bay as a prime location for a marina and established Baudhuin Yacht Harbor. Over the years, the name changed to Sturgeon Bay Yacht Harbor and most recently, Bay Marine Yacht Harbor. In 1952, Baudhuin donated the land for what is now the Sturgeon Bay Yacht Club.

Co-owners, Mark and Matt Felhofer, purchased the Sturgeon Bay Yacht Harbor in July 2021. This seemed like a natural progression as the brothers continue to grow the business that their father, Fran Felhofer, started over 50 years ago. The purchase of the Yacht Harbor will allow Bay Marine to expand its yacht brokerage, storage and service capabilities. They plan to continue developing the nearly 80-year old marina and reclaim its distinction as one of the premier marinas on the Great Lakes.

Conveniently located between Lake Michigan and the Bay of Green Bay in beautiful Door County, Wisconsin, a unique boating experience awaits you at Bay Marine Yacht Harbor. Our friendly staff is dedicated to serving our customers on an individual basis offering quality service, care and attention.

Bay Marine Yacht Harbor offers a variety of well protected seasonal and transient slips for boats up to 100 feet, a full service fuel dock with ethanol-free gasoline and diesel, clean showers, saltwater swimming pool, laundry facilities, free wi-fi and outdoor grilling & socializing areas. The Marina is just a short walk or bike ride away from great restaurants and historic downtown Sturgeon Bay.

We loved Bay Marine Yacht Harbor ! The communicated very well once we made the reservation. Sent us our slip assignment, codes, etc in an email. Also sent drone pictures that were marked up to show the slip - this was an Outstanding idea and was a great help. The fuel dock was easy to get in and out of, and the Manager and dockhands were excellent. Can’t say enough about the amazing boaters lounge, and facilities. The lounge had very nice seating, large screen TV, Foosball, and a nice pool table. The covered porch included two picnic tables, two stainless steel built-in BBQ grills and cornhole boards. The pool was very nice too. The individual shower rooms included a toilet and sink/vanity. VERY NICE. We were bummed to only have 1 night ( had to catch the weather window south). Next trip, we wilklk plan a long weekend here, at least. One of the top 2 marinas that we have found on the Great Loop ! We will be back !

This was the nicest marina I have ever stayed at! I have never had a marina that was so clean and well maintained that there weren't even so much as pebbles in the parking lot! The facilities were amazing and the pool was an excellent addition! We will be staying here again!

Very nice Marina. We love the location and the facility. The approach and the Marina itself were quite weedy. Tried to play pool in the very nice boaters lounge but the pool cue tip was missing.

Overall a 5 star marina. Great docks and facilities. Showers and bathrooms are exceptional and very clean. The only reason for a 4 is that this has to be the biggest marina we've stayed at on the loop, and we've had some buggy ones! There is a warm front that came through here in Wisconsin, so perhaps that's the reason. Clouds and clouds of small gnats. Still, we would stay again and recommend it. Much friendlier than Skipper Bob's Marinas who were "put out" that we wanted to stay with them.

Marina Response:
Thanks for visiting. The gnats and bees have really come out in full force the last few weeks. We've been spraying Home Defense and other products, but they keep coming. We plan to increase our efforts on the insect population next season. Hope to see you again.

Bay Marine was our first stop on an 8 night cruise. The manager, John, was the perfect host. His team got us landed, powered up, and acclimated to the marina quickly. The baths, pool, marina and grounds are possibly the best in Door County. Location is great with many good places to eat close for walking. We met several fun boaters as well and exchanged advice and stories. This is a really great facility!

Very nice Marina. Most of the slips are are wide two berth wells. We stayed on A-dock. Everything is new this year and it is built well. Wifi is very good even at end of pier. Club House is very nice with plenty of bathroom/showers, even a pool table. Plenty of grills. The staff is helpful. They can do pumpouts at your dock for a small fee. We enjoyed our 5-day stay here and will visit again.

This is a very upscale marina/resort. Facilities are new, beautiful, and very clean. Our only issue was coming in. No one answered the phone or radio to give direction. Glad Dockwa gave us the dock and slip number online! We usually have assistance coming into a dock. No one was around.

Bathrooms were clean, docks were in good repair. Gas grill for our use.. other marina boat owners were friendly.. Very small marina - after we arrived, there was no staff around. When we registered our reservation, John quickly sent emails with our slip assignment, wifi code, and bathroom code. He was very kind and friendly on the phone, and was there with staff to catch our lines. The marina was just sold a week ago, and the offices are about a city block away. We did enjoy being close to the Maritime Museum.. During their transition to new ownership, there is no fuel or pump out available. Plans are to build a new building, increase the number of docks.

Marina Response:
Thank you for the review and I apologize for the fuel dock misunderstanding. While we did close the Yacht Harbor fuel dock located at the bulkhead, we still offer ethanol-free unleaded fuel, diesel fuel and pump out service at the Bay Marine fuel dock located just to the north of the Yacht Harbor. We look forward to you visiting the Bay Marine Yacht Harbor again!

Very clean. No goose poop on docks! A bit of a walk to get to the museum and restaurants. For reference walking from boat to maritime museum, doing museum tour (no tower), to Kitty OReilly Pub and back to the boat was about 8k to 9k steps.
