    We have stayed here several times. The Club does offer transient slips via Dockwa. The harbor is well-protected from all directions. There is a well-stocked ship store and a bar/restaurant (under separate ownership) within easy walking distance. The Yacht Club, and La Pointe in general, is a quiet location without the race/party atmosphere that occasionally prevails in nearby Bayfield.

    The layout of the site is spread out in such a way that it's a long walk from the transient docks to the facilities (ship's store/showers/restrooms). It is about a 1/2 mile walk further to the downtown area of La Pointe which has a handful of restaurants and shops catering to tourists.
