I thought we would be at a dock however the dock was a floating dock like a mooring. Only launch service to get ashore and no power, of course.

Marina Response:
I am sorry that this miss communication happened but this is a Dockwa issue. We put down that we have inner floats only but the only choices on Dockwa are moorings and docks. So again I am sorry for the confusion.

Very slow in confirming DOCKWA mooring request but once there it was fantastic. Such a beautiful yacht club.

One of my favorite clubs to visit. Waterfront staff is excellent and facilities/mooring are top notch! Jon Constant

Thank you Jonathan - We hope to see you again.

To me, dock means being on a solid structure giving access to the shore. Our stay was being tied to a float in the center of the harbor. This would not be a problem except that my wife has had recent knee surgery and climbing in and out of the dinghy presents safety and health risk. I was not a happy camper. The Camden Yacht Club was great but couldn't change our location.

The staff were pleasant and tried to be helpful. However, they made an error.on our reservation dates even though we had a confirming email. The club us closed.on Monday, our arrival day so we lost several hours straightening out where we would be.moored. Only the launch driver was on duty and he was overwhelmed. The club has no showers or laundry facilities and the wifi was not working. It is a cute club but deficient in too many areas for cruisers.

CYC is very friendly, providing ample instructions on arrival. The floaters (mini-docks for two boats each moored in the inner harbor) are easy to use and conveniently located to the dinghy dock on shore, which is a two minute row away. In turn, downtown Camden is a short walk. The clubhouse is pleasant and friendly. There are small restrooms with a single shower each but no laundry or other services. There's a bar and restaurant but we didn't have the opportunity to try it.

Marina Response:
Thank you Dan. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay but I a confused - the Camden Yacht Club does not have showers, nor do we have a bar and restaurant. I think you may be confusing us with Lyman Morse?

Wonderful location. Very friendly folks at CYC. Responded quickly. They even called to keep us posted on the shuttle service given a storm that was also visiting. Would stay here again without a doubt.

A very welcoming club. They couldn’t have been nicer and helpful.

Club and crew were great, but our outer-harbor mooring was torture with storm-surge from the SE quadrant. Pick better conditions or find a float in the inner harbor. Had to use lee-cloths to stay in our berths. The good thing is we now know from the launch ride the condition of our antiifouling paint - front, back, & both sides.

We had a nice stay although it seems the club believes a "dock" and a "float" are equivalent. Not necessarily so for someone with a dog that needs to go to the bathroom when the (very nice) launch isn't running.

Extremely friendly staff and launch drivers. Nothing beats sitting by the fireplace on a rainy day. No showers.
