Private sailing club at the mouth of Sandy Creek on the south shore of Lake Ontario, in Hamlin, New York, about 17 miles west of the Genesee River.

Guide

Approach and anchoring

Enter from Lake Ontario through the Sandy Creek inlet. The creek mouth carries a bar that shifts with storms and onshore winds from the N can build a short steep sea on the approach. Daylight entry recommended for first-time visitors. Oak Orchard lies 12 miles to the west as an alternative refuge.

Practical

Member berths on Sandy Creek with shore power and water. Two-storey clubhouse with heads, showers, kitchen and meeting room, plus an outdoor pavilion. No fuel berth on site. Visitors from reciprocating clubs welcome, and any boat in genuine need of shelter accommodated within capacity.

Ashore

Sandy beach along the club lakefront. Hamlin Beach State Park is about 5 miles west by road with swimming and hiking trails. The village of Brockport on the Erie Canal lies 8 miles south, with restaurants and the SUNY Brockport campus.
