It all begins with an idea...
After traveling the Hudson River by water for many years, we believe this section of the river is one of the most beautiful areas, with spectacular views that our guests are only able to enjoy 6 months of the year.
Our vision is to add residential housing and develop a multi-use property that combines the existing full-service marina, retail shop and restaurant to create a year-round community.
Our goals in this development are to preserve the natural beauty of the property, while providing much needed housing to the region, with limited impact on the surrounding community.

our team is busy preparing for winter storage and winterization.
If you are looking for a place to store this season, reach out to our Ship Store for details.
It's never too early to start planning for the 2025 season!
Sign a seasonal contract for the 2025 season, and enjoy the end of the 2024 season on us!

Boater Appreciation and Pig Roast Weekend in Review
Thank you to all of our seasonal boaters and the many guests who joined us for our annual kick off to the season. From our traditional Flag Raising ceremony and Blessing of the Fleet to a weekend of beach parties, bonfires and live music, we culminated the weekend with our annual Pig Roast. Special thanks to our team, the Awenke Yacht Club and our many volunteers throughout the weekend. Here's to a great season!
