★★★★★H KAwesome and unique day camp for kids! My kiddo has been sailing these small boats since he was 8 years old. The new leaders Jasper and Nick are phenomenal and have created some great options for sailors of all ages and experience. Kids (and adults) are now able to do a day camp or 1:1 instruction and then via a membership can take the boats out. Such an awesome location on the beautiful banks of downtown Hudson.
★★★★★Shauna VerheyenCouldn’t be happier with my experience at Saint Croix Sailing School! My instructor was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and able to respond calmly to every situation that we encountered. Highly recommend!
★★★★★Patti SvendsenWe enrolled in the Tuesday night J22 races and loved it! Great school and staff! Thanks!
★★★★★Andrew MuellerAs a native Hudsonite, the St Croix Sailing School is an amazing community organization that is helping to revitalize the riverfront. Even if you’re new to sailing, connect with the sailing school to learn how to sail and make the most out of living on the river!
★J. Hunter HollandThe staff are rude towards the General Public around where their camp is. Automatically assume that I was some kind of creep or psycho because I stopped and asked for directions for fishing, totally unprofessional, these uptight prepubescent Camp counselors should ask questions before assuming that every white male is Ted Kaczynski or Jeffrey domper or something, I mean you got to respect them for looking out for the kids and protecting them, but it also might not be good for these counselors to be teaching these kids that every single person has malicious intentions towards them. Like investigate a little bit, I was there with my wife and my six-year-old son, Jesus Christ. I thought your business was cool that's why I went over there, not anymore I don't.
