About Us

Mashomack Fish & Game Preserve Club is a 1,900-acre private sporting preserve and social club located in Pine Plains, N.Y. Founded in 1964 on Shelter Island, N.Y. by Daniel Daly and David Thieringer, the Club relocated to northern Dutchess County, N.Y. in 1979. Upon Daniel’s death in 2003, a group of Club members set out to acquire the Club’s assets from the founder’s estate, an effort that was completed successfully in January 2006. Today, Mashomack’s members own and operate the Club, and the Club’s Board of Governors has begun the process of conserving Mashomack’s property under permanent easement.  In 2008, the Club preserved and protected forever more than 1,650 acres by conservation easement to the Dutchess Land Conservancy.  This was the largest and most substantial conservation easement ever given to the DLC, creating a contiguous protected area of more than 4300 acres, connecting land preserved by National Audubon, The Nature Conservancy, the State of New York and other land protected by the DLC.

Mashomack‘s 400 members and their guests enjoy a variety of sporting activities, centered around shooting and sporting clays, overseen by Shooting Manager Tyler Olay. They also engage in fishing, polo, tennis and swimming. The Club provides dining and lodging facilities, which are located in a cluster of buildings anchored by the main Clubhouse, an 1800s Greek Revival “early transitional” building overlooking picturesque Halcyon Lake. The Club’s ambiance is charming, casual and intimate.
