Many of our members also belong to LSSC and it was our pleasure to host their Wednesday night Sunset Series post-race gatherings in our clubhouse!

As our Sunset Series is winding down, we wanted to take a moment to thank Great Lakes Yacht Club for letting us use their clubhouse on Wednesday nights.🙏 We'd also like to thank Just Good Chefs for the food service 🍔 and Dragonmead Brewery for the b**r! 🍺
It's been a great season and we appreciate the hospitality and everyone that makes it all come together! THANK YOU!!

Thankful to be located along The Nautical Mile SCS with convenient access to so any incredible restaurants and other businesses. We especially love as soon as GLYC members + guests cross through our gates the relaxation begins and opportunities to create memories are endless.

While Jefferson is under construction, so are we!

We’re currently working on updating the Nautical Mile website, refining our brand, and creating better tools to help you discover everything the Mile has to offer.

One of those tools is an updated map.

And yes... it’s a little hard to read right now 😅

But that’s because there are SO MANY businesses, restaurants, marinas, shops, services, and experiences packed into just one mile of waterfront.

We’re sharing this version because we want to bring you along as we build the next chapter of the Nautical Mile.

What you’re seeing isn’t the finished product—it’s part of the process.

Take a look, explore, and tell us: what’s your favorite spot on the Mile? 👇⚓

More updates coming soon.

Visit The Mile!

Reminder - today, June 21st is the deadline to request dockage at GLYC for next weekend.

Members gathered this afternoon to celebrate and wish our beloved Officer Manager Sami well as she embarks on a new adventure.

Sami’s contributions to the Great Lakes Yacht Club have left a lasting legacy, and her dedication to our members and club will not be forgotten. While she leaves behind big shoes to fill, we are grateful this isn’t goodbye.

Thank you, Sami, for everything you have done! We look forward to seeing you around the club a little more often as a member rather than an employee. Wishing you all the best in your next chapter! ⚓️
