BAYSIDE EVENT CENTER

Bayside Event Center was purchased by Ralph, Connie, and Michael Marquez in 2022 and has since been transformed into a unique multi-purpose property.

The venue rental includes three marvelous spaces: The Grand Ballroom, a covered bar/hangout deck, and a beautiful open-air viewing/ceremony deck. It is the perfect location for all special occasions.

Uniquely, the property also features private lodging for its guests. The beautiful 3,800 sq. ft. lodge can comfortably accommodate 20 overnight guests. It has a massive living room, spacious bedrooms, game room, master bath with steam room, and fully stocked chefs’ kitchen, you’ll be sure to remember.
