The Berrien Springs Boat Club serves its membership by providing a boating access site and recreation area on the St. Joseph River located above the Berrien Springs dam. The club is a non-profit corporation.
The Club boating season runs a full year from Clean-up Day in April, until the following year's Clean-up Day. Each member is issued a key to use the Club's boat ramp and restrooms.
Fees for the 2025 season are as follows:
Base renewal (prior to April 30) - $90
Late renewal (after April 30) - $105 (incurs $15 late fee)
New members - $125 (includes a $20 initiation fee and a $15 key deposit)
Clean-up Day for 2025 is scheduled for April 27, 2025, from 8:30a to 11:00a.
Our agreement with the Village of Berrien Springs, allows the general public to launch a watercraft that is non-motorized/non-trailered (kayaks and canoes) from the specific floating dock off the seawall (maintained by the Village of Berrien Springs). The rest of the area (boat ramps and docks, picnic tables, swings and restrooms) are for BSBC members only. BSBC is happy to provide this service for non-members as long as it does not interfere with Club members' use of the property.
The Berrien Springs Boat Club is governed by our by-laws. Interested in reviewing them?
