Shelburne Bay Park is located adjacent to the State fishing access area off from Bay Road. There is an extensive system of trails at Bay Park. The walking/hiking/cross country ski trail loop is approximately two miles along Lake Champlain. A gentle gravel bicycle/recreational path, which with Harbor and Bay Roads, is almost three miles. Dogs are allowed at Shelburne Bay Park, providing they under restraint at all times. Dog owners are required to clean-up after their pets. There are currently sixty-eight moorings and a floating dock system at Shelburne Bay Park. The moorings, marked with Hazelett Buoys, range in depth from 6 feet to 25 feet. The area is quiet and relatively protected from most wind directions. The Town of Shelburne maintains a wait list, located at the Town Clerks Office, for the 68 moorings. The annual mooring fee is $600 for Shelburne Town Residents and $700 for Non-Residents and includes the use of all mooring tackle, excluding a pennant line. Applicants will generally be accommodated on a first come first served basis, however, Shelburne Town residents shall receive priority placement. In addition, the depth and spacing of moorings vary greatly and may also be a factor. Once registered on the wait list, individuals will be contacted when a mooring suitable to their vessel specifications becomes available. Registration forms are available at the Town Clerk's Office or can be downloaded from this web site. Completed forms may be either placed in the Harbormasters mailbox at the Town Offices or mailed: Shelburne Harbormaster P.O. Box 88 Shelburne, Vermont 05482 |
