About The Private Affair
The Private Affair is a members-only on-premise lifestyle club in Port Deposit, Maryland. The owners describe almost 25 years of operation.
The club publishes its own address, 255 Linton Run Rd, and places itself in the north-east corner of Maryland minutes off Interstate 95.
The space runs to about 10,000 square feet on secluded private property in a rural setting. It holds a dance floor and a variety of playrooms.
Membership is required before entry. An application with a current face photo is submitted, approved, and followed by a tour on the first visit.
What to Expect at The Private Affair
The club answers the obvious question directly. Walking in means dancing and socializing, with the explicit behavior kept to the playroom area.
Professional lighting and DJs run the dance floor. The owners describe an electric atmosphere and frame newcomers as friends they have not met yet.
It is BYOB, but with a staffed bar. Soft drinks and mixers are free, and the club notes that bartenders work on tips alone.
There is no re-entry. Once a guest steps outside, they cannot return that night, so bring everything you need in with you.
The dress code is enforced. The club strongly suggests business casual and puts weight on first impressions.
Who Can Attend
Couples, single women, single men and single X may all join. The club defines a couple for admission as a male and a female.
Two women who want to attend together each need their own membership and pay the single female rate each time.
Single men must be sponsored by a member in good standing and accompanied by that sponsor on a first visit. Numbers per event are limited.
Everyone must be 21. The gender stated on the application must match the gender on a state or federally issued identification.
The club reserves the right to deny entry or membership at the discretion of management and ownership.

How This Listing Was Verified
West Coast Swingers reviewed theprivateaffair.com, including its FAQ and Single Gentleman's Guide, on September 21, 2026. The members-only format, the near 25 year history and the 10,000 square feet of space come from that site. So do the published street address and phone, the rural setting off Interstate 95 and the membership application and photo requirement. The same pages give the mandatory first visit tour, the 21 and over rule and the couples definition. They also cover the singles and sponsorship rules, the cash-only door and the no re-entry rule. So do the BYOB policy with free mixers, the dress code and the hours and the 11pm cutoff. Email info@westcoastswingers.com if any detail has changed.
