Houston’s Harbor of Belonging

Friendship comes easy here, nurtured by the reassuring rhythm of the ties and the calming serenity of the sails. Whether you have a boat or simply a love of the water and the lifestyle that comes with it, you’ll find yourself surrounded by people with the same passion — eager to follow where the currents take them, and quick to embrace those who also enjoy the journey.

Commodore’s Greeting

It’s my honor to welcome you to Lakewood Yacht Club — a harbor unlike any other. Set on 38 acres of beautiful Clear Lake shoreline, Lakewood is more than a destination. It’s a community of people who share a love of the water, good company, and the easy rhythm of coastal life.

Our members gather for everything from sunset cruises and spirited regattas to family dinners and festive harborside events. Whether you sail, race, cruise, or simply enjoy the view, you’ll find your place here among friends who feel like family.

Welcome aboard — your home port awaits.

Sincerely,

Marie Wise

Commodore

70+ Years of Salt Water, Sailing & Soul

Minutes from Houston, Lakewood Yacht Club is set on the shores of Clear Lake, boasting sweeping Gulf views. Lakewood has evolved from our humble beginnings in 1955 to become a premier yacht club — and a spacious private retreat with plenty of easygoing charm.

From the cherished Blessing of the Fleet, a full calendar of on-the-water events, and laid-back dockside gatherings toasted with the Club’s signature rum and Coke, Lakewood blends long-held traditions with a lifestyle that’s lively, relaxed, and always welcoming.

Anchored in Waterside Splendor

Oak-lined streets lead to expansive, breathtaking grounds that reveal a world-class marina, welcoming a wide range of powerboats and sailing yachts. This exceptional setting highlights a comfortably refined Clubhouse, dining and gathering spaces, courts for tennis and pickleball, a resort-style pool — and people who make this place unforgettable.

Everyone Is Part of the Crew

Your favorite place may be trimming sails on the bay. Cruising with family on weekends. Or pulling up a chair at the Clubhouse bar, swapping stories with your friends. At Lakewood, what brings us together isn’t so much the boats as it is the camaraderie — friendly faces, warm welcomes, and a passion for life on the water.

Here, belonging isn’t about what you have. It’s about who you are.

The Club’s Beliefs

The purpose of Lakewood Yacht Club is to provide an exclusive yachting environment for the benefit of its members. The Club endeavors to satisfy diverse social and recreational needs, while fostering a spirit of camaraderie. Member participation ensures that the Club provides services and facilities that cater to our mutual interests.

Giving Back & Lifting Up

The members of Lakewood Yacht Club are deeply committed to giving back to the community we proudly call home. During storms and times of need, we open our marina to fellow boaters seeking safe harbor. 

Many of our signature events are hosted with the express purpose of supporting local philanthropic causes. Beyond events, Lakewood members actively support a wide range of charities and local organizations, reflecting a shared spirit of generosity and service.
