Welcome to the LHYC website! 

The Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club is a private club located in northwestern New Jersey, on the state's largest lake.  The club was founded in 1905, and our current clubhouse dates to 1910.  The clubhouse was built in the Adirondack style, using local logs, and was recently placed on the National and New Jersey registers of historic places. 

The club is run by its members for its members.  The club features an active sailing and social schedule, with an emphasis on activities for the entire family.  The club's sailing program includes a junior sailing instructional and racing program, as well as one-design racing in four fleets.  The club has an excellent youth program, called "The Juniors", and many social affairs for young and old alike.  Friends of members are allowed to participate in the instructional programs, and to crew for members in fleet racing.  The social schedule includes a variety of Saturday night functions throughout the Spring and Summer.  The club also has weekday dining for members on the porch overlooking Lake Hopatcong.  For information on membership, please click on the button labeled directions and other information.

The club is very proud of its historical status.  Much effort has been made to maintain the club in its original state, while serving an active membership.  Beginning in the near future, the Women's Auxiliary will be offering public guided tours of the club grounds during the summer months.  Keep an eye on the website for more information.
