Commodore Yacht Club - Lake Wylie, South Carolina

The History of Commodore Yacht Club!
Commodore Yacht Club was established by Wilson Lewith on
property that was located in what is now known as “River Hills
Country Club”. The road was then name Commodore Drive.
It was called “Belk’s River House” in the mid to late 50’s. It was
renamed as Commodore Yacht Club and moved to Concord
Road in the late 1960’s. It originally was created with 50 to 60
slips, with a small clubhouse, that has grown to 80 slips with a
1500 sq ft. club house at present.

As I sat down with the “most mature-aged existing member”
Tony Carroll, he had so many wonderful memories of the
years of Commodore Yacht Club. He remembered back in
1972 when he was elected to the Board of Directors as the
treasurer, that the club did not have any growth in sight and
less money in the account. He set out to build the club and
grow the membership. Goal accomplished!

In 1989, Hurricane Hugo came through and destroyed the
club. With only a few docks that were salvageable, they set
out to re-build. They did just that.

Commodore Yacht Club is a great place to feel like you are at
your “home away from home”. Many of our members spend
their weekends here, some year-round. We have group club
parties where everyone comes with their children and
grandchildren, guests from out of town, and friends from
across the miles. As Tony will tell you, all of his three children
took their first steps on a boat, and I am sure that many other
members have the same memories.

Remember to tell your friends...
Have them come and enjoy the fun!!!!
