The members of Jackson Yacht Club share an appreciation for the traditions of boating, swimming and fine dining. The Ross Barnett Reservoir provides a timeless setting where members can share in their passion of watching the sunset, enjoying a good meal or boating with dear friends.
Inside the clubhouse, members may indulge their palette in casual or elegant dining alternatives. Our talented culinary team is ready to offer the many popular dining choices of today along with long time Yacht Club favourites.
