“Don't judge a book by it's cover”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2011

When we first arrived and looked around I was feeling ah.......then we went to into the room nd I still felt the same way. We settled in looked all around nd saw there was sooooo much more to this location than the room. The recrecation desk is amazing. You can chill up there, after a day in the sun. You can cook below and bring ur food up which is what we did nd it was relaxing. They have 3 people swings and table and chairs up there. Down below they have spaces for boats which is g8.....you know where ur boat is, you can check on it anytime.....which is a comfort to most I am sure. It is very convient to get dressed and walk 100 steps to your boat.

Tery and Jackie are GREAT!! They go above and beyond making sure you feel at home....nd it is ur home for ur stay. They are welcoming in every way....they show you where everything is when you arrive nd tell you if you need anything let them know nd they follow through with what they say.

Tery also has a number you can call if you need anything day or night.....who does that now adays??

Tery and Jackie have every ammenity you need...extra towels, sheets, blankets, silverware, coffeemaker, coffee, handsoap, dishwashing soap, dish towels, tupperware, plates, bowls, plastic silverware.

The location is sooo close to Indiana Beach another convience to walk to an amusment park do not have to deal with the hassle of parking ;) nd Tery also has passes to the park and the waterpark at a discount price....AWESOME we took advantage an it was FABULOUS!!

Please come to check out what Bay Side has to offer you will not be sorry in anyway ;)

Room Tip: Get a group of people together there is more than enough sleeping room enjoy, relax, nd destress.

“A WONDERFUL PLACE TO RELAX AND PLAY IN MONTICELLO, IN”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2010

We stayed at BaySide the last weekend in August. Terry was very accomadating and kind. We all enjoyed the pool, sauna and lighted hot tub. It is a very short walk to the entranvce of Indana Beach. A wonderful time was had by all. I also enjoyed the fact that they take the time to recycle. Thank you Terry and Beverly for a wonderful weekend shared with family and friends.

“great place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2010

I would definetly recomend staying at bayside! cant beat the indoor(24/7) pool! We spent most of the day at the park, but when we did need to come back to change, or eat Bay Side was perfect as it is literaly steps from the park!! not the most current decor, but all the other amenities made up for it for sure! The peir is wonderful at night! Lstening to music, enjoying the summer breeze, cant beat it!!

“"LIKE STAYING WITH FAMILY"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2010

This was our first time staying at Bayside, and it was GREAT! We stayed for 3 nights and could not have picked a better place. It is literally right across the parking lot from Indiana Beach, we could see the "Steel Hawg" from our deck, but don't even think about noise, it is soooo quite and peaceful at Bayside. We spent our evenings watching the swans, ducks and boats on the HUGE deck that overlooks the lake.We loved the Sauna, Hot Tub, and Pool and the teenagers took full advantage of the Wi-Fi. The layout this place has is amazing, you have the "City" in the front and the "Country" in the back. Bev & Terry have put so much time into landscaping the property with beautiful flowers and lights. We stayed in a one bedroom suite with four people (two of them teenage boys) and had more than enough room, having the kitchen was great , we cooked breakfast and ate at the bar counter. It was so nice to have everything you need provided for you.....(coffee pot, toaster, dishes, towels, linens..etc.) We even cooked out on the grills out back. Staying at Bayside is truly like staying with family, Terry & Bev go out of their way to make your stay a GREAT ONE! I have never met nicer people anywhere! WE WILL BE BACK! THANK YOU!

“everything we wanted in a vacation”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2010

Location, location,location. Perfect place to enjoy all aspects of indiana beach. The rooms are nice, perfect for a family of . We stayed in a two bedroom minisuite and it was very nice. Seconds away from the park and the deck and docks on the lake are great. The best part about our stay was the owners Terry and his wife are great they will do anything to make your stay enjoyable can't wait to go back.
