Through a generous matching gift of $200,000

God is using this property and these programs to write the story of His love in the lives of campers, guests and staff.
However we cannot fully realize this vision without elimination of our long-term debt.

About Bayside
Bayside hosts summer camps and year round retreat experiences. Guests enjoy a modern facility, great food, loving staff and intentional programming.
Since 1953 our intention has been simple: to make our guests and campers feel loved. In our busy lives we know that there is little margin for rest and reconnecting with the things that make life meaningful. We’ve created property and programs to do exactly that.
Time spent at Bayside is a chance to reconnect with the meaning of life by creating space and time for relationships, rest and faith.
