Was there for a party. Beautiful atmosphere. Food is excellent service even better. Planning on having my next event there

This is the destination!!!! By Land or Sea! Regarding the spending comment from below, tell me where on Long Island can you go out to dinner where you spend less than 100 in one night. Getting chinese food delivered home is about 50. The spending chit is 120 per month! Add this with breathtaking views and ample free parking. This place takes the cake. The food, atmosphere are divine as well as you are welcomed by a bunch of hard working fellow Islanders' as members with one common interest FUN. This place will make you marvel at the 6.5 Rolling acres of tennis courts, swimming pool, tiki bar, 65 slip Marina. This is the Gem of the south shore! Chef Dana and the staff is nothing less than amazing as well. Bravo LIYC Bravo!

I'm a current member as of 2014.. Very family friendly.. Great pool.. Stunning location.. Very relaxed feel.. But here lies the problem.. Food service is the issue!! With a $120 monthly minimum food and beverage, it's hard to stomach the poor service from the servers and the kitchen.. Slow slow slow service time and time again.. Tonight dinner was an embarrassment. For the 4rd straight time service took well over an hour and the food was all raw not under cooked but raw and cold.. One dinner took 1.45 and when the food did come out my guest's order was missing.. It showed up 30 min after my guests walked out! I can never bring a guest here.. My wife is embarrassed and doesn't want to return.. The GM is trying to correct the issues but I'm not seeing the results yet! At current I'm not returning next year!

Came here post-Mayor's Cup sailboat race on Saturday. They had live music, a semi-open bar, and free hotdogs. The actual building is very pretty, and the grounds nicely kept. I am not a member of the Yacht Club, but do attend the awards ceremony for the Mayors Cup every year. Everyone is always extremely friendly, and it's always a great time.

My husband and I recently hosted our wedding celebration at the Long Island Yacht Club and we are so happy with our experience with the venue, the food, and the service! We are not members of the club (we live in California) but by a stroke of good fortune, we stopped by after last Labor Day and met Diane, the events coordinator. We learned that non-members could host events there during the off-season (and boy, is a January wedding off-season!). We loved the recently repainted and remodeled gathering space, which has two fireplaces, a separate bar area, as well as large round dining tables and couches. There are tons of windows, so the space was bright and well-lit (which is better than a lot of banquet spaces we looked at in the area). We felt like we were hosting our family in our home - Diane did a fantastic job creating a comfortable, welcoming environment. Chef Matt prepared a great buffet (we had a lot of options to choose from), amazing appetizers and dessert. With the help of a local florist, we added some small decor, we brought our own sheet cake, and that was really all the coordinating we had to do. They have the ability to display a slideshow and play a Spotify playlist, so we showed pics from our wedding in California. All in all, we're so happy we met Diane and were able to host exactly the kind of classy party we wanted.

Love this place. I have eaten dinner here a number of times with both family and friends. The facilities and grounds have undergone a major change under the new ownership. Please don't confuse this with older posts that speak to a minimum spend per month imposed upon members. That is not the case. As far as the dining goes I had the best duck I have ever eaten in my life and I've had it in quite a few places. The crab cakes were amazing and the short ribs were to die for. This is a terrific place and anyone living in Babylon Village should explore a membership as the LIYC is truly a gem.

What a shame! Shame on this so called Yacht club! It was so evident that this so called friendly yacht club has its biased KKK officers running the show. Executive Committee Commodore, John Sparagano Vice Commodore, Steve Vid Rear Commodore, Ken Jacobs Secretary,Jeanette Marino Treasurer, Brian Richmond The club is not filled with relatively few boats but that is because of the small minds running the place. My fiance requested info and was invited to an open house. They bought him drinks, food, showed him the place and welcomed him with open arms. When I came along with him and the so called application which was told to him to be a mere formality not to worry you are part of our family! You guessed it I come with him and all of a sudden they have to vote to see if he is a good match for the club I AM BLACK! The boat is in my name, I am a professional and my fiance is out of work and a little down on his luck that is why we were going to join the club........well not now! This is a clear case of bias and should not be tolerated I wonder if the Reverend Al Sharpton owns a boat?

L.I. Yacht Club’s new owners wind down a successful summer in Babylon

The new owners of the  Long Island Yacht Club have just wrapped up a Labor Day weekend that featured live music Friday night, dinner and dancing Saturday and a pig roast and kids’ carnival on Sunday. Labor Day brunch followed.

The marina is now filled to capacity, with 11 on the waiting list.

It’s a far cry from when the historic Yacht Club reopened for the first time under new ownership for Memorial Day of 2016, just days after Rick Stettner and business partner Ned Hurley acquired the club on May 17.

In the run-up to that weekend, the big priority was the food. That, and making sure the lawn was cut at 307 Little East Neck Road South.

“The first thing we did was hire a chef and then the chef didn’t show up for Memorial Day, so we had to cook,” Hurley said. “We had a big barbecue, 200 people showed up and Rick and myself had to grill.”

“All while Eric was mowing the lawn,” added Stettner, speaking of his son Eric Stettner, now the Yacht Club’s general manager.

The Long Island Yacht Club was founded in 1958 and counts former longtime Babylon Village resident Captain Kangaroo (Bob Keeshan) among its charter members. Before that, the mansion, which reportedly dates to 1911, served as a private residence.

Stettner and Hurley acquired the nearly seven-acre property and its mansion, which had shut down in December 2015, from the nonprofit club for about $2 million.

One of the first things the new owners did — aside from trimming the grass — was blow up the old model of what it means to belong to a yacht club.

p class=”p1″> “You don’t need a yacht to join,” said Eric Stettner, a 2016 University of Connecticut graduate. “We have about 80 members without boats.”

“But if you want to sail you have access to sailing,” added Hurley.

They also scrapped the $10,000 annual membership in favor of $1,500, and only operate the club full time between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Members get access to the club, pool, tennis courts, sailing, swimming and tennis programs and daily camp activities for kids , as well as steep discounts on docking rights.

“It’s not about how much money you make; it’s about friendship,” said Hurley. “ As you get older, sometimes it can be hard to make friends. This is another outlet for people and families to meet other people and hang out without breaking the bank.”

Unlike most yacht clubs, there are no minimums on what people have to spend on drinks or dining, either.

“We do not enforce food or beverage minimums, which is out of the club tradition,” said Rick Stettner. “We wanted to build this on our reputation, and that’s why we have the great chef [Noah Weber] that we have here.”

In its first summer, in 2016, the club finished the season with 62 members. Now there’s 142 members.  The goal is to get 300 members signed up, then start up the waiting list. (A household constitutes a member.) There are no residency restrictions.

On the offseason, the club will be available for weddings and other private parties for non-members. And they will be hosting their own events. Some events will be opened to the public and serve as membership drives.

The first such event will be an Oktoberfest party this fall.

“We have the most beautiful wedding venue; seven acres right on the the Great South Bay,” said Hurley. “We can seat 150 people inside and another 400 outside.”

Stettner, who lives in Oakdale, and Hurley, of New York City, have owned and operated Maple Avenue Marina together for some 17 years in Bay Shore.

When they learned of the Yacht Club’s financial troubles in 2015, they jumped.

“We read in Newsday they were having financial problems and called” Commodore Steve Vid, said Hurley.

But Vid told them to get to the back of the list of 40 others who were interested in buying the club and bulldozing it for waterfront townhouses.

“Then I said we’re not interested in that,” said Hurley. “We wanted to keep the club operating.”

Suddenly they were No. 1 on the list; the club’s leaders wanted it to keep operating as a yacht club.

Babylon Village Mayor Ralph Scordino also feared the property would fall to developers.

“My biggest concern was the idea of losing this amenity that we have in the village for development, for housing,” he said. “I was hoping that someone would take it over” and revitalize the facility with the idea of attracting younger families.

“And that’s what these people did and they have done a great job,” he said. “It  just has that different atmosphere. You can go down there and have a cocktail, then have a great dinner and with that scenic view overlooking the Great South Bay it’s just a great place to be.”

A tentative deal between the club and Stettner and Hurley reached in the fall but it took those next months to finalize and organize a vote of the board for approval.

Then the renovations began. The main building’s ballroom and bar and lounge areas have been completely redone, along with all-new HVAC systems. The property has been cleaned up outside. the sailing program was resurrected, as well as all the kids’ programs.

The club now has a swim team, sailing team and tennis team. They even  hosted a successful regatta this summer.

“We recognized early on that this was a tremendous asset to the community, as opposed to it going to development,” said Rick Stettner. “With over 30 years combined in the recreational marina business, we knew it would have been a sin to let this property go to 16 or 18 individuals.

“We wanted it to be accessible to 300, 400 people with access to the Great South Bay and all that comes with it.”

Rich in history, the North Shore Yacht Club, established in 1871, is one of the three oldest yacht clubs on Long Island.

The Club is for people who love sailing, with membership classes and fees that are a fraction of the cost of other yacht clubs and marinas. Its fleet consists almost exclusively of sailboats, ranging from small one-designs to ocean-going vessels. We boast diverse membership classes that meet the needs of experienced cruisers, blue water racers, new sailors, junior sailors program, and even a loaner program for those without a boat.

The Club offers a well-sheltered mooring area protected by land on three sides, with quick and easy access to the Sound and to beautiful Port Washington and its amenities…all supported by world-class launch service. Members enjoy an active social and education calendar without all of the extraneous costs that other clubs charge for facilities little used by sailors.  Most of all, members enjoy the camaraderie, shared experiences and development of lifetime friendships with fellow sailors all within the backdrop of its comfortable clubhouse on beautiful Manhasset Bay.

Not an experienced sailor?  Have no boat?  Not to worry!  The Club boasts a Boat share program for adults where one can learn to sail and share a boat at one’s own pace and even aspire to a boat of one’s own. Additionally, the Club has a Junior Sailing Program for aspiring fledgling Skippers.  Both Programs enable these members to enjoy the yacht club experience at a very affordable price.

Lloyd Harbor Yacht Club

Lloyd Harbor Yacht Club has earned an outstanding reputation throughout Long Island Sound. Our membership and continuing recruitment of sailors who want to take part in the learning experience, makes this possible. We are always looking for such sailors to fill out our current roster.

We invite interested parties to join our racing and post-race gatherings to meet a few members so that you can get to know us and we can get to know you.  If you want more information about the Club,  contact the Membership Chairperson or any Officer .
