About this property

Spacious Open Home Perfect For a Large Family Vacation

Bay Colony 775 is the only unit in the Bay Colony area that is not an apartment style unit, meaning it does not have an upper or lower-level unit. This unit is the only 3 bedrooms in Bay Colony, and it sleeps up to 10 guests. Located just walking distance away from the beautiful lakeshore of Gull Lake, it is an easy access to all the water activities, but also just a short distance away from the parking lot of the resort- since this unit is in the middle of three Bay Colony buildings. Bay Colony has plenty of amenities that are just exclusive to the area. Grill up a delicious dinner on the community propane grills or tell old family stories around a lit outdoor firepit while watching the sunset. Play a not-so-friendly game of Cards Against Humanity, while the kids are hanging out with friends on the playground. Bay Colony is a picture-perfect vacation spot; one where old family memories are shared and new ones are created.

We have stayed at a lot of resorts/vacation properties. Overall this one would be at the top of the list. The rental, property grounds, grill area, fire pits, beach and dock were all very well cared for.

Great for our ladies retreat
Everything was very nice. It was exactly what we needed for our ladies retreat. The only reason I took one star off the rating is : there were a few things I thought that should have been provided like oven mits! And coffee filters. I was also a little surprised we had to strip the beds and take the trash to the dumpster. Other than those little things it was a great stay overall. I would recommend it to anyone.

Hunting Widow Weekend
We had a very nice stay for our hunting widow weekend. The place was a great size for three women and six kids. We went over to a local hotel water park for the day and spent a relaxing evening in the main lounge area. The fireplace felt great! Enough kitchen supplies to make dinner and drinks. We also appreciated the comfortable beds and linens and ample bathroom space.

Great spot for a girls weekend
We had a great girls weekend. The location is great and the property was very clean and spacious for 8 women. It would also be a great property to bring multiple families and rent out multiple units. It was right on the water with kayaks, paddle boards, boats to rent. We had a great time

Great girls getaway
It was perfect for 6 ladies for a 3 night stay. It was nice that the two bedrooms had 2 queen beds in them so most had their own beds and the other was a king that slept 2, and the three bathrooms were great. We had fires out by the lake and many chairs out there for us. The grills were nice too. We cooked most of our meals in the kitchen that had what we needed. Would love to come back. Would recommend an extra kitchen towel and dishcloth in kitchen. Only 1 set was there.
