Kayak Summer Storage

The Chequessett Club offers its members the convenience of storing their kayaks rights at the club’s beach, ensuring they’re always ready for an impromptu paddle or a serene excursion on the water. Allocated on the right side of the beach, storage space for 27 kayaks is available on a first-come, first-serve basis, embodying the club’s ethos of accessibility and community. Starting from May 1, members are welcome to store their kayaks (up to 2 per member), with the understanding that all the kayaks must be removed by October 1. It’s important for members to note that while this amenity adds to the ease of enjoying the bay, all kayaks are stored at the owner’s risk and must have proper identification on them. To secure a spot for a season, members are required to reach out via email to reserve, ensuring a seamless and organized experience for everyone looking to take advantage of this offering.
