Attended two multi day Regattas at Larchmont. The staff were very respectful and helpful, even though they knew that I was not a member. I had an issue with a lost rain jacket and they had a very well designed lost and found system which resulted in the retrieval of my jacket. BTW is you need a high quality foul weather jacket, there are several that are unclaimed. Had numerous meals there from grab and go lunches, continental breakfasts and social dinner buffets. One day the coffee was so good, I thought they had put cocaine in it. The next day it had grounds. Stayed in Commodore suite for three days. The room was small with twin beds. The bathroom doors did not close. The view of Long Island Sound did compensate and I felt the price was fair for the location. My only complaint if continental breakfast was that hot pots should have been primed. They had a couple of different models and it took a minute to figure how to pump and then the next day my beverage of choice would be in a different style pot. Too early in morning to be doing trouble shooting in an un caffeinated state. They will not sell Larchmont Yacht Club branded merchandise to non members. That is their prerogative. I have plenty of LYC SWAG from regattas. The boat staff are very professional and respectful. Being in a regatta on LYC and American Yacht Club loaned boats, I was looking at every minor deficiency to win in One Design Racing. They were supportive where possible and within the Regatta sailing instructions.

Easy going Yacht club on the Long Island Sound. Interior is clapboard paneled and there are wood tables to have lunch at. Plenty of boat-themed paraphernalia hanging from walls. Staff quizzical: underage, they have no answers! Parking is tight. Magnificent views from front lawn over shimmering water. Rebel: 4
Classic, elegant yet beautiful overlooking the Long Island Sound. I attended a wedding reception held here nearly a decade ago with my former love and his family. The service is somewhat attentive as well as the food is catered. Sunday brunch wearing Gucci and Burberry bags with Manolo Blahnik shoes complete with Tiffany jewelry of men and women, which envisioning it is very common yet a staple to old money to this historic yacht club. The view is amazing as well as the surrounding houses. The lawn is always freshly cut and well maintained. This yacht club is historic as members obviously come from old money. There is an elephant shaped plant on their lawn that is picturesque. I rate it four stars as the service and food are not superb.
Attended a rehearsal dinner here recently. The building is gorgeous and very nicely inside...even the bathroom was beautiful! The cocktail hour was very nice with lots of appetizers being passed around and plenty of cheese, crackers, and drinks. The staff was friendly and attentive. The seated dinner was nice. I had the chicken francese which was really good and the portion sizes were great. I loved the view from the dining room and only wish we could have seen it during daytime so I could've gotten an even better view of the water!
Rude employees! The tennis courts and tennis shop were so disorganized. The manager of the tennis facilities did not accommodate me and my needs at all. Will not come back here again!
Classy, Elegant, and Breathtakingly beautiful! My boyfriend's company has a company/family picnic here once a year and this year I decided to attend his company picnic with him since I've never been to any of his company functions. This place is massive with lots of grass area for little kids to run around and others to take a nice stroll. There's a gorgeous view overlooking Long Island. The staff here are very friendly and kind. There was lots of of food - such as lobster with butter, pasta salad, burgers, hot dogs, salad, dessert, ice cream, and open bar. The lobster was so moist, tender, and just amazing! I had two for myself. The pasta salad we had was delish as well! I really enjoyed the picnic and it was nice to meet his colleagues and it was a nice escape from the city for a few hours. I look forward to his company function next year at Larchmont Yacht Club.
We had a luncheon there following my grandmother's funeral two days ago. My aunt and uncle are members there and it was a very nice, yet emotional time with my family. Honestly, I have no idea how much I can put in this review without losing it. This place is absolutely beautiful and has so much history. It's been around for over 200 years and this place IS old money. The staff was extraordinary and the food was quite pleasing. My mom has told me stories about how her proms were here. She is a real-life Lorelai Gilmore, rebelling against her debutante destiny and posh upbringing. Maybe I should fill in the fact that I'm adopted and that is how my connection to this place lies. Anyway, the view from the dining room is amazing. Overlooking the Long Island sound and just thinking of the really nice homes surrounding this place. I guess I really like it here. Quiet, peaceful and I'm sure that I would most likely get mistaken for staff here too. I left off the fifth star because even though I have a connection with this place...I will never be a member here. I'm too dark; too poor... don't mind me...I'm not myself right now...
An Oasis - as good as it gets. Tons of rich people, sure, but very few bad attitudes. Old money, classy people.

Great location and great place... Staff is helpful and kind. Good $ connections to be made here... Best part is it is 40mins away from Manhattan yet feels like Rhode Island... Will def come back again.
This place is so classic and old school. Everyone has money oozing from their veins. Perfect place for Sunday brunch overlooking the water, wearing Lilly Pulitzer, and storing your expensive sailboat. I still give it 5 stars since it has a great history and sometimes it's the perfect place for traveling back in time. Also the "ladies' powder room" is nicer than my house.

From the Commodore:
The Board of Trustees of the Larchmont Yacht Club voted to become a Founding Member of the National Sailing Hall of Fame in Annapolis, Maryland. Larchmont Yacht Club joins other prestigious yacht clubs in the United States in supporting the National Sailing Hall of Fame as it moves forward to construct new facilities in Annapolis, where it is destined to become “a home for the Sport of Sailing” in the United States.
Larchmont Yacht Club, founded in 1880, and located on Western Long Island Sound in Larchmont, New York, has a long and successful tradition of yachting and yacht racing, fostering generations of sailors who have and who continue to excel in sailing. Commodore Carl Olsson confirmed that “sailing and competitive racing at the Larchmont Yacht Club prevails as a way of life today as it did 131 years ago and the Club is proud to support the National Sailing Hall of Fame as a Founding Member in the spirit of that tradition.”
When the Larchmont Yacht Club was founded, in 1880, the United States had been a nation for 104 years. Its total population was 50 million. The Civil War had ended 14 years earlier. The village of New Rochelle was settled in 1688; Mamaroneck, as part of Rye, had also long been existence; but in between these two, there was no Larchmont.
The story of the origin of the Larchmont Yacht Club has often been told. In the early evening of Memorial Day in the year 1880, five young men were warming themselves over a bonfire built in a cleft of rocks on the shore of what is now Horseshoe Harbor, in Larchmont Manor. These five loved boats and they had just finished a hard racing day. Since a bonfire is scarcely the most comfortable way to close a hard day at sea, it is not surprising that these young men fell to discussing the possibility of organizing a yacht club. They were Frank L. Anthony, Fred W. Flint, William C. France, Loring Lothrop and Charles E. Jenkins. Their boats were part of a small mixed fleet of jib and mainsail sandbaggers, sloops and cat boats moored in Horseshoe Harbor.
It was decided that evening to organize a yacht club to be called the Larchmont Yacht Club and to invite others to join. The problem of a Clubhouse was resolved quickly. Fred Flint was elected a committee of one to approach his father, T.J.S. Flint, who was President of the Larchmont Manor Company and owned most of the property in Larchmont Manor from the Post Road south to the shore line. On this property was the small Union Church. The young charter members made a deal with the elder Mr. Flint for the use of the church as a clubhouse and signed a lease for $1.00 per annum. However, it was made clear that the newly formed Club would have use of the church every day except Sunday when the clubhouse would be opened to them only after church services were over.
The club membership grew so fast, however, that a larger clubhouse was soon needed, and in the fall of 1881 the club leased the Fleming residence near the church for the annual rental of $1,500 per year. The club continued to expand so it became necessary in 1884, to lease the Shepard House.
Three years later, in 1887, the year of the incorporation of the Larchmont Yacht Club, the present site of eleven acres was purchased at a cost of $10,000 from Benjamin A. Carver, a railroad magnate.
The original Carver residence was much smaller than the present clubhouse – the east and west wings having been added subsequently to the purchase. The Pandemonium was built fifteen year later in 1902. Our present Junior Clubhouse was the Carver stable and the basement was the cow barn while the first floor housed the horses.
Thus, the origin of the Larchmont Yacht Club.
