Visitor Information

EYC is always happy to welcome visiting regatta sailors to our lake.

Hotels

Overflow Camping & RV

See & Do in the area


Race participants and their families may camp and/or moor the boat on site. 

EYC has a tent camping area, two boat ramps, and a parking area for autos and RVs.

If you are bringing an RV or tent trailer, it is recommended you get reservations or make arrangements to stay at Richardson Park, next door.  They have full hookups at each site, showers, marina, etc.  It is within a 5-minute walk of EYC and is the homeport for the Triton Yacht Club. 

No pets are allowed at EYC, no exceptions.   If you have pets you wish to bring along, we recommend staying at Richardson Park. 

 

Hotels

There are many hotels in the Eugene/Springfield area.  The best downtown would be the Hilton on 6th at Pearl.  On campus, probably the Phoenix Inn on Franklin Blvd.   But by far, the best location for hotels would be any at the I-5/ Beltline exit in the Gateway area.  The Courtyard by Marriott and the Holiday Inn Express are two of them (shown below, with special rates for our regatta).  There is a Motel-6, The Double Tree, and a few other national chain hotels there too.  Just east of I-5 on Beltline, about half a mile to Hutton on your right, hotels are right there at the corner of Hutton and Beltline.    They are nice hotels within a short freeway/highway drive from your door to the sailing site.  Shopping is near by and easy access to everywhere.

This campground is very popular and is often full.  It is recommended that you get a reservation ASAP if you intend to stay there.

There is a $3 daily use fee for the entire park (that is you need a daily pass if you enter the park during hours of the ranger in the booth).  There is no fee to launch at the boat ramp.  There are restrooms and showers at the marina so you can stay on your boat there if you like.
