From the reviews

North Bay is a gorgeous camp to go for a weekend if you are going to a party there or wedding. I went to my cousin's wedding here, and the views blew my mind especially at night of the North Bay. It was amazing seeing lightning in the distance over the water, fireworks to the southwest at the same time.

Beautiful camp with many activities, hiking trails, and beach. Eco. sensitive. Great at accommodating allergies. Friendly and helpful staff.

★★★★★ — Uncle, Sep 2024

Wonderful retreat weekend with our Students! The amenities, cabins, dining hall and beach were awesome!

★★★★★ — Deb, Oct 2024

This was my 1st year volunteering for summer camp and it was just perfect for our groups. The grounds are perfectly kept, the beach area is beautiful, the buildings are all clean and air conditioned, plenty of benches and seating areas to hang out, a lot of field space for a ton of activities plus a nice pool!

Getting married at NorthBay

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
