The Sachem's Head region of Guilford is so-named because when viewed from the air, the coastline resembles the outline of an Indian chief's head in ceremonial headdress. The yacht club and historic homes anchor the ancient, opulent neighborhood; resilient against the succession of storms that have battered the coast. Sachem's Head, due to it's geography, is isolated, and therefore tranquil. It is worth a visit on a lazy Sunday drive but it is also worth remembering that people live here for the peace and quiet, and to be respectful.

What is the relationship between the Association and the Sachem’s Head Yacht Club?
The Sachem’s Head Yacht Club is a private club that resides within the boundaries of the Association on Chimney Corner Circle. SHA residents are free to apply to join the club, but membership is not guaranteed. SHYC has, by specific agreement with SHA, access to some of the Association properties during the summer season. By way of lease, the club has use of two tennis courts. Use of the Landing by SHYC members at the back of the harbor on Colonial Road for the purpose of boat launching is permitted and limited to the beginning and end of the season only.
What is the process for securing a mooring in the harbor?
The harbor and moorings in Sachem's Head and the moorings in Joshua Cove are managed and maintained by the Sachem's Head Harbor Management Commission. The commission is made up of volunteers who represent equally the Sachem's Head Association and the Sachem's Head Yacht Club. The Commission appoints a Harbor Manager to facilitate the management of the mooring fields. To acquire a mooring, one must be able to access their vessel, which can be achieved by SHA residents via a dinghy at the Landing or personal dock, or be a member of SHYC which provides launch service to vessels in both harbors. Mooring space is limited. SHA membership does not guarantee a mooring but is a factor in the prioritizing process. Applications for a mooring are made by contacting the Harbor Manager [email protected]
What are the traffic and vehicle guidelines?
The number one complaint received each year is related to speeding and safety. A speed limit of 15 mph is posted on Association roads. During the summer season, speed bumps are installed. By Town of Guilford ordinances, vehicles must be licensed and operated by licensed drivers. Please note that there is no parking within yellow lines marked throughout the Association and there is no overnight parking permitted at Chimney Corner Circle.
When is the recycling and trash pick-up?
SHA contracts with a hauling company to provide weekly recycling and trash removal to SHA residents. Recycling is removed early Monday mornings. Trash is removed every Monday and Thursday. All bins should be moved to the curb for pickup. Once a year in May, SHA provides for “bulk trash pickup”. The exact date is listed on the website and will be communicated by email.
What are the guidelines for construction and work crews?
The following work hours shall be observed for ALL hired contractors, including construction, yard maintenance, painting, etc. Weekdays (Monday through Friday) 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM; Saturdays 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM. NO WORK by outside contractors may be performed on Sundays or on federal holidays between May 1 and September 30. Contractor signs ARE NOT permitted to be displayed
What is the SHA process for property building or renovation?
The Sachem's Head Association has sole jurisdiction of all zoning matters within the association limits. The Association maintains a zoning commission, made up of association volunteers, that holds the responsibility of reviewing and approving all building projects and land use questions. All buildings or other structures that are to be erected, moved, enlarged or structurally altered externally must first obtain approval from the SHA zoning commission. The first step to this process is to fill out the zoning application form and submit it with the application fee of $100 to the Sachem's Head Zoning Commission. The finer details of the process can be found in section 10 of the zoning regulations which can be found at: https://sachemsheadassociation.com/ordinances The Application for Zoning Compliance can also be found and downloaded from the above address. Any questions about zoning matters can be directed to [email protected]
Which properties are owned and managed by the Association?
Access to Bloody Cove beach, the tennis and paddle courts and parking lot, the Landing with kayak, dock and boat launch on Colonial Road and the meadow, pier and dock on Uncas Point are private properties owned and maintained by the Association. They are private properties and for the use of residents. Rules for use are posted in each location.
What is the process for storing a kayak, paddle board and/or dinghy at the Landing or Uncas Point Pi
Residents must have an SHA permit to store kayaks and paddle boards at the Landing or Uncas Pier and/or to tie up at dinghy at the dock in either location. The Annual Spring Mailing includes an application form indicating fees and instructions. Stickers will be issued upon return of application (and pending space availability).
Are there any official social events?
SHA hosts the following events each year: a Summer Sunset Kickoff at Sunset Pier the first Friday in June; an End of the Season Picnic supper at yacht club the third Friday in September, an annual Children’s Fourth of July Parade and a Spring Cleanup in May. Details are listed on the website and will be communicated by email.
What about dogs?
SHA has many much-loved dogs. While deer, turkeys, coyotes and fox may run free within the Association, please note that dogs must be leashed and picked up after when off the owner’s property.
