Bay Pointe Inn

We loved our wedding at Bay Pointe! We stayed at the Boathouse Villa for the weekend with friends and family- it was the perfect combination of mini-vacation, family reunion, and reception. Spencer, Madison, and Charity were all responsive with our questions over the course of planning. They truly had a response for everything! I would certainly recommend this venue. Amazing views, and we rented a boat as well. Don't know where else we could have done all of this!

Bay Pointe made my wedding the wedding of my dreams! The whole process was so easy working with them, and they were very helpful with anything we needed along the way. Whenever we had a question regarding the timeline, the budget, or adding to our day, they answered within the same day and answered all the questions we had. They will make your wedding the wedding of your dreams too!

We had the absolute greatest experience with Bay Pointe. From the very beginning, our wedding event coordinators at Bay Pointe were so helpful and quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. I could not have imagined a better venue for our wedding. Everything was absolutely perfect! I will definitely be recommending Bay Pointe to any future couples that ask about our experience.

We had our wedding on 9/13 at Bay Pointe on the lakefront property. Everything was exceptional in every area! Each person we worked with was an absolute joy and they made sure our entire weekend was everything we dreamed of. We had the pleasure of renting the Emerson lower and upper cottages for our entire bridal party to stay at the night of rehearsal and wedding. This made it such a blast and allowed everyone to be in the same place and truly enjoy each other’s company for the entirety of our weekend. MULTIPLE guests commented that they had the most amazing food at our wedding in comparison to any other venue they have attended. This was a huge win for us as many of us are foodies. Thank you Bay Pointe for allowing all of our wedding dreams to come true!

We just had our wedding at the Bay Pointe Boat House this summer, and everything was great. The best thing about our whole experience was hands down our day-of coordinator Stephanie. We didn't know what to expect but she went WAY above and beyond. If "on top of it" was a person, it would be her. Before I could even communicate if I needed help with something, Stephanie somehow read my mind and had it handled. She single-handedly kept us stress-free all day, we love her. Our bartender was also amazing, she was fast, efficient and somehow remembered everyone's drinks the whole night. I could make eye contact with her from across the room and my drink would be waiting for me! For the other highlights, the venue is perfect for small, intimate weddings. It was so nice to have the whole weekend in one place and to be able to stay with our entire wedding party. With the Boat House, we had the convenience of a banquet hall but the fun and comfort of a house party, all of our guests and vendors loved it too. Also, we had a buffet for dinner, and the team working with us were so accommodating when it came to our guests with food allergies. As for the wedding planning process, our point persons, Ashley, Juno and Spencer were all very responsive and helpful. My only wish was for some kind of site or portal to keep better track of things—final decisions, answers to questions, invoices/receipts and any other reference material was buried in a year's worth of email threads. Overall highly recommend everything to do with the Bay Pointe Boat House :)

I could not recommend Bay Pointe enough! The venue is gorgeous and all of our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful it was! I loved that our guests could stay on site too. The staff, Juno, Mariesa and Stephanie were all so amazing and helpful throughout the whole process! The food was great too. The photos turned out amazing because bay pointe is so pretty! Definitely choose Bay Pointe for your wedding!

Could not recommend Bay Pointe Inn more!!! The staff was so responsive, professional, and organized throughout the entire wedding planning process and made our wedding day amazing and stress-free (shoutout to Juno, Ashley, Megan, and Stephanie - you all rock!). We received so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the venue is and everyone had an amazing time. Thank you Bay Pointe for making our big day so special!

Our wedding at Bay Pointe Inn was beautiful and our guests had the best time. Our venue location was right on the water which made for a fun, unique experience. Bay Pointe Inn coordinators were extremely helpful with the wedding planning process and always made sure we were taken care of. We highly recommend this venue!

We couldn't be happier with my daughter's wedding at Bay Pointe! It was like a dream, the beautiful lakeside wedding, the delicious food and all the friendly people at Bay Pointe. Every single employee went above and beyond to make sure our event was perfect. The entire process was seamless - from the very first email to the final checkout. The boathouse was especially lovely and private. The bridal party was able to stay at the boathouse and the rest of the guests stayed at the Inn. Everything was clean and well appointed. You would think, after months of planning, we would be relieved for it to be over. But it was such a wonderful experience, we are actually sad. Thank you Bay Pointe!!

Our experience hosting our wedding at Bay Pointe was absolutely incredible. From the start, the tour was incredibly informative, organized and straight forward. You knew exactly what you were getting (without all the hidden wedding fees and extras you aren’t told about). While wedding planning, our wedding team (Mariesa and Juno), was in constant communication with us, provided us with every detail imaginable (even small things we didn’t think about). They provided advice and direction while accommodating our specific needs. They provide you with everything you need to make your day go smoothly. The work they put into our day took so much stress off our plate. The weekend of went perfectly, hugely due to the Bay Pointe staff. Our coordinator, Stephanie, was amazing. She hosted our rehearsal and gave us peace of mind going into the big day. On the wedding day, not only did she make sure that everything ran perfectly, she was constantly going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, checking in with to see if we needed anything. She even grabbed us drinks and food when we needed it! She was incredible. The rest of the staff was also fantastic. They were friendly and made sure everyone was having a good time. These few highlights only touch the surface of what made our wedding weekend at Bay Pointe so special. They truly go above and beyond. I will be recommending Bay Pointe to anyone i know looking for a wedding venue!

Our wedding experience with Bay Pointe Inn was everything we could have hoped for plus more! Everything was absolutely perfect! It all started with our tour with Sales Manager Mariesa. She showed us the different venues to hold the wedding, and that’s when we fell in love with the Lakefront Pavilion and its beautiful views right on Gun Lake. From there, my fiancée and I worked with the Catering Event Manager Juno to plan the nitty and gritty details. Juno was a constant professional and helped us plan every second of our wedding and food details. The day of our wedding, Courtney took great care of us and ensured that everything went perfectly throughout the day. She even went above and beyond and arranged the flowers on our cake, which turned out beautifully! We couldn't have asked for a better event supervisor for our big day and we are so grateful to her for helping make the day perfect and stress-free. Thank you so much to everyone at Bay Pointe!

I could not say anything better about Bay Pointe! They made our wedding absolutely perfect and I would choose them again time and time again. Leading up to our day, they were very responsive and made sure all of the details were ironed out. We rented out the Boathouse Villa, which was the most adorable space (both for the wedding and an incredible weekend spent celebrating with friends and family)! We received so many compliments about the food, venue, and overall relaxed vibe. We worked with Jessica on the details and Jocelyn on the day of and they were both incredible. I highly recommend this venue!

Bay Pointe Inn is an amazing place to have a wedding. The location is amazing. Madison was great to work with and helped us with everything we needed. The property is beautiful and makes for beautiful pictures. WE had an amazing time.

We fell in love with Bay Pointe when we went to view the venue. All of the staff members were incredibly responsive and accommodating. Madison was very patient with us, especially towards the end of our crazy planning. We had Paige as a day of coordinator and she was the absolute best. The food was amazing and the scenery was perfect for beautiful photos. Words cannot express how grateful we are to Bay Pointe for making our wedding so perfect.

We could not have picked a better venue for our wedding! We are a bit older and had a very small wedding, the staff was very accommodating and treated us so wonderful! All of our guests were very impressed with the venue and staff. We used one of the recommendations from the venue for the photographers. Amy Carroll Photography, and we are SO in love with our photos from her!!! HIGHLY recommend!!! We also used bee entertainment for our music. They were very nice.

I have zero complaints about my wedding at the Lakefront Pavilion on 9/30. The staff and my coordinator were extremely helpful throughout the planning process and day of. The venue and hotel rooms are beautiful, and Bay Pointe made it a very special day for my husband and I!

My husband and I just had our wedding at Bay Pointe and it was like a fairy tale. It was gorgeous, the food was amazing and the service was great! Our day of coordinator was Jocelyn and I can't stress enough how outstanding she was. I am such a stresser and always worry about the little details but with Jocelyn, she stayed on top of everything and was on took care of every detail before I even had time to think of it, much less stress, leaving me to have a more fun and relaxing day than I ever dreamed possible! Madison and Ashley were my point people leading up to the wedding and they were fantastic. My husband and I live out of state so there were so many emails back and forth as I asked them extra questions, not knowing the area. They always answered quickly and never seemed to mind. Madison in particular was invaluable helping me with the DJ, who had extra questions and concerns. As for the venue itself, it was absolutely beautiful, peaceful and exceeded my expectations. The room was so nice, the bed was like sleeping on a cloud with comfortable pillows and super soft sheets and blankets. The Jacuzzi tub was super great too, especially after the long day of being on our feet. Also, I highly, highly recommend grabbing some of the cookies after check in. They are fantastic and go quickly! All in all, I would definitely recommend this venue for your wedding. I was very happy with everything!

Bay pointe provided the absolute most beautiful wedding I could have ever asked for. My grand parents lived on gun lake my whole life and just recently passed so it was so special to get to have my wedding there. Everything was great, Juno was an incredible communicator, everything runs like a WELL oiled machine, and they had a plan for everything. It was on the expensive side for sure, but there was a lot of stuff that came with that that I didn’t have to worry about and peace of mind is great. If we could get married again we would do it at bay pointe a thousand times over.

Everything was absolutely perfect! We were pleased with how well it was organized. We didn’t have to worry about anything! The staff was amazing to work with!! If you are looking for a low stress gorgeous venue with great food I would highly recommend!! The event manager did an awesome job the day of!! I can’t say enough good things about this venue!!

We had an amazing wedding thanks to Bay Pointe Inn! Madison was so easy to work with and we had Jocelyn for our day of coordinator, and she was great! Our ceremony & reception was at the lakefront lawn and it was absolutely perfect. The food was amazing! Along with having a hotel right on site was perfect for our guests so they did not have to drive home. I am thankful for having our wedding in late September as Gun Lake is very popular in the summer time so the resort does get really busy by the docks especially. I did get nervous with strangers walking through but there was staff on site watching. Overall, we are very thankful to have found this venue and will be coming back to make visits on our anniversary. :)

We chose Bay Pointe Inn’s Boathouse Villa for our weekend stay, wedding ceremony and reception. This several-story, historic, lakefront villa with outdoor dining space was such a unique and stunning choice (for our smaller, 80-person wedding). We couldn’t be happier with our decision. Bay Pointe’s staff were amazing from the day I first reached out to the days following the big event. Their prompt, thorough responses took much of the stress off planning a wedding, and they made us feel welcome at every turn whenever we visited.

Baypointe and their staff have weddings down to a science!! Not only did our big day go amazingly but the communication before hand. Madison and Ashley answered any question via the phone or email and always invited me to swing by with question if i wanted to! For someone who didn’t know what to expect in the wedding planning world they were amazing!!! The venue is stunning i love having everything in on spot! The girls were able to get ready at the cottages, plenty of places for fun wedding photos and being able to stay on sight after our big day was so convenient!

Bay Pointe Inn was the best wedding venue we could have asked for. We got married 8/26/23 and it couldn't have been a more perfect day. The lakefront venue was absolutely stunning and getting married by the water was beautiful. The reception area was gorgeous and cozy. The staff was incredible, especially Paige, who was our day-of event coordinator. She went above and beyond and made us feel cared for in every way. If we needed something, she took care of it. She made the day that much better for us and treated us like we were the most important people in the world. Our guests absolutely loved the venue as well. We live about two hours away from the venue and were asked several times how we ended up finding such an incredible place. We were told by many of our friends and family that this was one of their all time favorite weddings to have attended. The food and drinks were also fantastic. If you're looking for a magical venue for your fairytale wedding with beachy/lake vibes then this is it. It was an absolute dream for a summer wedding and it's one we'll never forget. Thank you, Bay Pointe for going above and beyond!

I got married at Bay Pointe Inn in April 2023. They allowed us to get married on the Lakefront, and our reception was held at the Woods. We got endless compliments from our guests on how beautiful the venue was, and it was the perfect location. Throughout planning, the staff was extremely accommodating and always ready to answer any questions. We also held our rehearsal dinner in the Fireside room the night before our wedding, stayed in the cottages so we could get ready there the morning of the wedding, and stayed in the complementary bridal suite the night of our wedding. Everything was extremely clean and organized, and the food was great for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding. Thanks to Bay Pointe (and our vendors) our vision was executed flawlessly, and everything went as planned. I can not recommend Bay Pointe enough for your wedding day!

From the views to the food, Bay Pointe was everything we could have hoped for. Bay Pointe was the first venue we looked at in the heart of the winter, but knew we wanted a summer wedding on the water. We booked it immediately. The food was delicious, the views were incredible and the staff was so helpful at every single stage. Every person at our wedding kept asking how we found this place and how much they want to come back. Its literally perfect. We had our rehearsal dinner in the Fireside room and watched the sunset. On our wedding day, it down poured during our ceremony time but Paige, our coordinator from Bay Pointe (another reason they are amazing, they provide a day of coordinator) had such a positive outlook, being the bride, I was more calm than half the wedding because I knew the rain would pass, sure enough it did and the sun peaked out and it cooled off, making for a literally perfect evening. We had a party bus pick up a large group post reception and took us to Gun Lake Casino for an after party! The casino also provides a 14 passenger shuttle free of charge. Overall, if you are thinking about having your wedding here, DO IT!

Bay pointe had good food, especially the whitefish. That was a big hit with our guests. They were very organized and great to work with. We only did a dinner there for our guests only because the dates we needed were not available, but we were not disappointed! Thanks for a great experience! Krissy abd Daryl

We had our wedding at Bay Pointe Woods back in June! We were both so impressed throughout the whole process. Jessica was always available to answer any questions we had leading up to our day, and the staff (and our vendors) the day of were excellent and took care of everything! It was so nice to be able relax while getting ready and not have to worry about anything. Rehearsal was also great! They have day of coordinators provided for you (that do everything except setup your own decor that your bring in) and they were so helpful in going over everything and assuring us it would go as planned. We had a Thursday rehearsal (Friday wedding) so nothing else was going on that evening afterwards. Our bridal party and family were able to hangout outside around the fire pits, and they let us bring in our own drinks and pizza (ordered from Lakeside Pizzeria right down the road on Gun lake, definitely recommend) which was super nice and saved us some money! We set up yard games and some extra lawn chairs right outside our cottage, and had a great and laid back rehearsal which is what we wanted! The Woods location itself is beautiful, and the cottages being right on site was a huge plus! Our bridal party and family all stayed the night before and the night off. The rooms were super nice, spacious, clean, and updated. Perfect to get ready in. The ceremony spot is absolutely gorgeous, and the reception area was incredible. We loved how the reception venue had a wrap around sidewalk and that guests were able to mingle inside/outside during cocktail hour and the reception. Food was also incredible! We had the prime rib, chicken chardonnay, mashed potatoes, and green beans. All amazing! Late snacks and appetizers were also delicious. Overall would 10/10 recommend. It couldn’t have gone better, and it was so great to see all of our family and friends also have a great time.

My husband and I highly recommend working with Bay Pointe for your big day! We just got married on 8.11.23 and it truly was the perfect day. The staff at Bay Pointe (shout out to Mariesa, Madison, and Jocelyn!) were all incredible. Madison was so kind about all of my questions leading up to our day. We felt in such good hands with Jocelyn during our day - she made sure everything ran on time and kept our huge wedding party in line nicely. I am SO HAPPY we decided to go with Bay Pointe. In my opinion, it was a very good value for the resources they provide and the high quality of service offered throughout the entire wedding planning process. I cannot say enough good things about Bay Pointe - THANK YOU for a wonderful and forever memorable day!

Highly recommend Bay Pointe! Our entire experience here was AMAZING! Great customer service! Everyone went out of their way to make sure every detail was thought of. My husband and I got married at the Woods and the experience was unmatched. Pretty much all planning was laid out for us and we could customize it to our needs/wants. Juno & Mariessa were a pleasure to work with over the past 6 months and were very organized & responded quickly to all communications and any questions/concerns I had. Every one of my family members along with my husband's family members enjoyed their stay at the inn & cottages. The food was AMAZING, and everyone commented on how beautiful the property was! Overall, we had amazing service, staff, accommodations, and food! We couldn't ask for a more perfect wedding!!

Bay Pointe Inn was the absolute BEST venue! The process was so incredibly easy, as they were so communicative and organized from day one. They basically plan it all for you! Day of, our guests had so much fun and were very complimentary of not only the space, but the food (SO good)!! I would HIGHLY recommend!

I would recommend Bay Pointe over and over again. We got married at the Lakefront Pavilion and the day couldn’t have been better! Jessica was such a pleasure to work with during our two years of planning. She was attentive, detailed and truly made the wedding planning process less stressful. Paige did an incredible job making sure the day of went smoothly and we had everything we needed. She truly went above and beyond the entire weekend. The food was great and the venue/view cannot be beaten! You won’t be disappointed having your wedding here!

Having our wedding at Bay Pointe was the best decision of my life. From the moment I toured, I knew this was the place I’d say “I do”. We hosted our wedding right on the water and it couldn’t have been more beautiful. Bay Pointe has such an elegant and classy aura, you hardly need to decorate! Being able to walk down the aisle, having the backdrop being the beautiful lake, then watching the sunset from your chair in the pavilion, you can’t beat that. This is a one in a million type of venue. The beauty don’t stop there, Madison is an absolute dream to work with, she is so kind, flexible, and all around just an amazing person who coordinates seamlessly. We had a hiccup with our charger plates and cake stand, the staff didn’t miss a beat to offer what they had in stock. Bay pointe is also a hotel, so being able to stay with all of my friends and family was huge for me. All of their accommodations are absolutely amazing, I seriously couldn’t recommend Bay Pointe for your wedding enough!!!

The communication w/ Bay pointe staff was excellent. They thought of things we didn't and were using our preferred method of communication.

Bay Pointe is the perfect venue for a lakefront wedding! The staff was very easy to work with and helped make the day flow smoothly! The food was amazing and the hotel is beautiful for guests. We really enjoyed getting ready in the cottages and all of the gorgeous locations for photos!

Our wedding was a true fairytale and we owe it all to Bay Pointe! We had countless guests tell us how beautiful, seamless, classy, professional and smooth our wedding day was. The planning process was seamless and efficient. The staff was consistently going above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied and our guests were as well. We had red wine and chocolate covered strawberries waiting for us in our honeymoon suite on our wedding night, personalized agenda signs on their televisions screens and more. The lakeside pavilion venue was absolutely stunning! I'm so glad they made all their renovations before our wedding including a greenery wall, expanded pavilion and wedding day schedule changes. If I had to give any sort of constructive feedback it would be that I wish they wouldn't make receptions end at 11pm. We never wanted it to end and could have kept going all night! Aside from that, I would give Bay Pointe 10/5 stars if I could. I cannot recommend them enough!

If you want to spend your entire wedding reception hearing from your guests how PERFECT your venue is, then you have to book the Bay Pointe Inn. My husband and I were married at the Lakefront Pavilion on June 16th, and we had the absolute most amazing day. The staff went above and beyond for us, the venue is absolutely gorgeous, and we had a fantastic time dancing the night away on Gun Lake. Having our wedding with Bay Pointe was worth every penny.

We had our wedding weekend with Bay Pointe, and it was absolutely incredible!!! We used the waterfront room for our rehearsal dinner. Everyone loved the space and it was so nice to have a private bar not to mention the water view! Saturday, we had our wedding at The Woods and it was just perfect! The landscaping, the exterior design, the stunning ballroom, the amazing food, the service- it couldn’t have gone better!!!! We got SO many compliments and everyone loved everything. Sunday, we had a brunch in the Fireside room and it was the perfect ending to our weekend! Everything was top notch, we have absolutely NO complaints! Highly highly recommend Bay Pointe for your wedding, an event, a weekend getaway, or even just dinner. You will not be disappointed!

We had our wedding here last month, and the day was absolutely beautiful. The venue itself (the woods) was amazing and our guests raved about the looks of the property. I will say, our day of coordinator was not as reliable as the coordinators that we worked with behind the scenes up until the day of which lead to a lot of unprofessionalism occurring and miscommunication which was disappointing, but nothing detrimental occurred. I don’t regret hosting our venue here at all, and would do it all over again if it meant getting the amazing photos that we did. The serving staff and hotel staff were amazing!

What can I say about Bay pointe inn omg they did everything and the day was so seemless and smooth calm and peaceful I have no complaints what's so ever they made our wedding so magical I couldn't have it any other place...Bay Pointe inn was the first and only venue we looked at the views and Scenery was everything Ashely Madison and the entire wait staff was so helpful and with ever little detail not once did i feel stressed out and as a bride that's not easy...Can't wait to go back just for a vacation thank u soo much for making us feel special

The Boathouse at Baypointe Inn was the perfect venue for our intimate wedding weekend! A huge thank you to Ashley, Jessica and our day of coordinator Paige. Everyone was incredibly organized, friendly and super communicative. I’d absolutely recommend Bay Pointe Inn for an event or even a weekend stay!

I have nothing but good things to say about Bay Pointe - we had such a great experience through the entire process of our wedding, from planning to the day-of! We had our wedding reception at Bay Pointe Woods, which was beautiful. A few pluses: there are two bars available and everything is super close by. We had quite a few people come from out of town so having the Inn across the street and the cottages right outside of the reception was perfect. We even had our rehearsal dinner at the Fireside Room at the Inn. I wanted to make planning as easy as possible and this venue definitely helped make that happen - everything is available through the venue i.e. food, drinks, linens, etc. with a few options to use outside vendors for thing such as chairs etc. but truly you don’t need to. The staff is super helpful and easy to work with as well. I would absolutely recommend this venue!

My husband & I knew we would have majority of our guests coming from out of town, so we wanted everything (RD, ceremony, reception, lodging) all in one location. BPI hit all the marks we were looking for, plus the numerous fireplaces are a nice cozy touch. Leading up to the wedding, Mariesa and Madison were great with communication, answering my string of random questions, rolling with changes I asked for and providing clear updates throughout. Boathouse - We rented the boathouse for our wedding party to stay in. We found it to be comfortable and fun! I will say, it only has two showers, so plan a shower schedule (we had some go to the main inn and use other guests they knew showers, which worked fine) We both got ready in the house on separate floors and we had fun sharing the space with both sides of the bridal party and found it had plenty of space for our large party (30ish people with family) RD - Our RD was at the boathouse and even though it poured, they put down the patio wall flaps and all our guests were able to continue having a good time. There were some drips coming through from the patio above, but that's to be expected and did not bother us at all. The food (Mediterranean Buffett) received high compliments. The Billiards Table and Shuffle Board was heavily used and the bartender was fantastic. Wedding - On the day of our wedding, we committed to an outside ceremony by the lake early in the day, with 15 minutes to go, the weather changed (thunder/heavier rain) and I started to freak. Our day-of-coordinator, Joclyn and her trainee Amanda, seamlessly got my vendors and guests across the street to the Reception Hall for an indoor Ceremony. Both were so helpful to my husband and I throughout the night as well as checked-in multiple times with MOB, FOB, MOG to make sure all needs/wants were met. The entire reception team from the carving station chef, to the dish-boys clearing tables, were friendly, personable and helpful. We received numerous compliments from Guests about how beautiful The Woods venue space was and how nice their Inn rooms and cottages were. All guests enjoyed the food (mash potatoes and roast beef BIG hits) and bar. Our bartender was fantastic, friendly and funny! Breakfast - Breakfast was the same thing each day (by day 4 I was over it) and eh. Considering all the other food we got at RD & Reception, was delicious, this was disappointing. RENT A CAR- Although we were told in the wedding info. book that getting a Lyft from the venue can be difficult, we underestimated just how difficult it would be. This was easily the biggest headache. Every single guest (15ish) who had a confirmed Lyft or car service scheduled ahead of time for Sun/Mon after the wedding had it canceled/no-show on them. This caused our guests who were local with their cars to have to taxi our guests to the airport. Have out-of-town guests rent a car, save yourselves the headache.

My husband found this venue and the pictures I don’t believe do it justice! Having the cottages very close to our venue was the icing on the cake as most of our wedding guests were coming from out of town. The venue was beautiful and it snowed all day. Jessica was very helpful leading up the wedding working with us on our quote and numbers as well as how we would like everything for the big day. There were a few things that were not ideal though, we had to continuously ask for the snow to be shoveled and stairs to the cottages cleaned off. It snowed probably 4 inches the day before and day of our wedding and with people moving around the area all day as well as our older guests it was a must! We also had our rehearsal dinner at the restaurant, we let them know how many people, what time, and they suggested we make a small menu to bring food out fast, which we did and we ended up waiting 2.5 hours for everyone’s food. We also had issues with the neighbor behind the venue, he decided he was going to burn a huge pile of brush the morning of our wedding sending huge smoke plumes in the air. Our planner had to go speak with him because nobody at Bay Pointe would, he did but I don’t believe that should have been on our planner to do. Overall the food was good, the drinks were a bit weak, but Lane was there for anything we needed and the venue was beautiful and our guests had an amazing time. I would recommend Bay Pointe to anyone looking for a near all inclusive venue!

Madison and Mariesa made our day an absolute dream. We initially toured the venue in October of 2021 and were pleasantly surprised with the options available for catering and bar services. We knew that this was a popular venue when the entirety of 2022 was already booked- so we opted for an off season wedding date in November of 2022. Working with Madison leading up to the event was nothing but pleasant. Mariesa and Madison went out of their way to accommodate my family’s special dietary needs and requests. They were there to answer as many questions as I had and I never once felt like I was an inconvenience to them. Madison helped create a floor layout that made the most sense for us and it flowed very well throughout the evening. My only qualm in the planning process is there are some inconsistencies with policies they have and for as much money as you’re paying, I would have wanted more leniency with the venue. However I will say when I pointed out these inconsistencies, the BPI team was quick to rectify these issues and ultimately make us happy. On the weekend of the wedding, we rented several cottages for our family and bridal party to stay in. We ate Thanksgiving dinner at BPI along with some of our guests and the food was excellent. Our guests rented 12+ rooms at the hotel across the street. We were extremely happy with the proximity to the venue, the service of the hotel and the amenities. It made having our wedding day so much easier and stress free not having to think about transportation. The reception was an absolute joy and the day of coordinator Lane really made everything flow smoothly. He was available for questions, made sure the bridal party had drinks during dinner, and was overall so friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely amazing. We go to weddings often and I will say BPI has excellent quality food that is flavorful and filling. We especially loved their carving station as it was a big hit at our wedding. Our guests had nothing but good things to say. Lastly; the drinks were also fantastic! The bartenders were professional and amazing. Overall if you’re looking for an all inclusive spot to host your wedding, this is it. You will be stress free with all of the help that’s provided, and get to enjoy the beautiful scenery that Gun Lake has to offer.

Beautiful location, fantastic venue, professional and helpful staff. Great experience all around. The cottages are new and beautiful and the fire pit was a fun gathering spot.

I'm shocked at the excellent reviews this venue has received. The MOG at this wedding is my sister, for reference. The cottages are nice, seem new. But there is NO CLOTHING STORAGE. Only one tiny coat closet with 4 hangers at the entrance of a 2BR/2BA cottage. No bedroom closets. No dressers. We lived out of our suitcases on the floor. The RD was at the Boathouse, which is basically an old 3-story house converted to an event space. The view to the lake was pretty, but the house is not well-kept. When one of our groomsmen held the handrail to walk up to the loft, the railing came off in his hand. The carpet on the second level leaves a lot to be desired and sorely needs updating. We used Bay Pointe Inn catering and bartending and were very disappointed in both. A bartender at the RD accidentally froze two bottles of white wine, then thawed them under the faucet and served them, instead of throwing them away. Once-frozen white wine tastes vile and should never have been served. We had our flowers for the event in the refrigerator, and the caterers changed the temp, which froze many of our flowers, destroying them. At the end of the evening, my sister paid the bartender (cash) for some bottles of wine to take back to the cottages. The next day, we were accused of stealing wine! Guessing the bartender didn't disclose our cash payment, so the venue thought we stole it. Rather than speak to us about it, the reception bartender, Michele, directly accused of us stealing wine. She made this accusation DURING THE WEDDING RECEPTION! In addition, she intentionally watered down drinks for the groomsmen, telling us they didn't need to be drinking anything straight. These men were all of appropriate age and were not causing any trouble. We realized the bar would be closed during dinner and that there was no wine service with dinner, so my sister went to the bar to get 4 glasses of wine for us to have with dinner. Michele told her she could only have 2 glasses. When my sister explained why she wanted 4, Michele then told her she would give her 3 glasses (?). Meanwhile, one of our friends walked to the cottage to bring 2 bottles of wine we had bought from the RD the night before. Michele came to our table to bring wine (I guess as a sort of apology?), then saw the bottles on the table and said, "That's the wine you stole last night! Give those to me right now. I have to take them." Our friend immediately took the bottles back to the cottage as Michele continued her tirade. She even said, as she slammed glasses of wine on our table, "I'm trying to be nice right now, but you people are making it really hard." At that point, the FOG got up to look for a manager. Michele said she was going to call the police. (Spoiler: police were not called. Michele was relieved as our bartender for the evening, and, as she was driving out of the parking lot, rolled down her window to yell at the FOG to "have a great evening") We were given no bread plates, despite bread being on the table. Utensils were cleared after dinner, and we were given none for dessert. Food was mediocre: dry chicken, rubbery salmon. I would have returned it had it been a regular restaurant meal. The continental breakfast at the Inn was sparse, although the waffles were delicious. I would never choose this venue for a vacation, let alone a wedding. It would be better for something like, say, a Rotary Club meeting. Out of space, but plenty more to say.

Jessica, Madison, and Lane did an amazing job coordinating and setting up my dream wedding! Everything turned out absolutely amazing! Our guests were raving about how good the food was. Thank you again to them and the whole staff at bay pointe😊

I will recommend this venue time and time again! I absolutely loved working with Ashley and Jessica leading up to the wedding and then having Lane there the day of! I got married and it rained all day but it was supposed to clear up around the time of the ceremony and Lane was confident it was going to but was ready to put it inside if needed! All of the guests loved their food and the experience! We had around 120 guests at their Bay Pointe Woods location and my bridal party stayed at the cottages on site. They loved it and keep talking to me about it! They were so nice to stay in! We were given a complimentary suite the night of our wedding with a customized wine bottle with chocolate covered strawberries and I thought that was really sweet of them! My vendors all raved about the place except for the HMU artists because there are not a lot of outlets for their curling irons so make sure to bring extension cords or power strips. BUT that is my only complaint! I loved it there and want to relive the day over and over!

Overall our experience with Bay Point Woods was wonderful, the food was delicious, and our guest had a GREAT time! Our wedding event manager was difficult to work with at times when planning our wedding day and figuring out details, but overall I highly recommend this venue for a fall wedding!

My husband and I had our wedding here (10/22/2022) and it was the absolute perfect day! One of the managers (I think the owner) came himself to make sure set up went well, it ran smoothly, and to congratulate us! We had our ceremony on the Lakefront Lawn and the reception at the Lakeside Pavilion. It was absolutely breathtaking. We fell in love with it when we toured in January and everything was snowy and stored away. They gave us a complimentary suite for the night of! The food was amazing, both with the catering for the reception and in the restaurant. They gave us a day of coordinator that handled everything absolutely perfectly, neither myself or the groom had to lift a finger (thanks Jocelyn!!). They left wine with a customized label and strawberries for the wedding night, and breakfast is not your everyday continental. They had the best photo locations, and three venues to choose from, where you can take your pictures anywhere on the property during a certain time. However, there are a few rooms of improvement that I think would have made it easier. There was a severe lack of communication between event coordinators. We ended up working with five different people, and they would tell us different things which was really confusing. For example, we had told one coordinator we wanted all the rooms in our room block to be on the same floor and together, but when we were all checking in, it never happened. But the front desk still accommodated us to the best of their ability, and put the two groups together on two floors so we weren't all spread out. In booking a wedding, be aware of the $11,000 food and beverage REQUIRED MINIMUM cost. While it was easy to reach, neither of us remember being informed until after we had signed and put down a deposit. I think they all just assumed someone told us. It leads me to my other thing: the price. While I was not unhappy with it, it was a little over our budget. We were told that they work within our budget, and the initial numbers are subject to change, but I don't think either of us were fully prepared for how much it changed. I think they need to be a little more honest about all the fees and taxes and just be upfront with the couples. BUT I think it is important to note that you are paying for location at a three star hotel, so this is not an angry review. I mean, we got all the food covered, the beverages, the venue did complete set up and tear down, day of coordinator, our own event planner, THE LOCATION, room blocks, a complimentary suite, an hour rehearsal time. There was a wedding the day before, but I swear they had it all just for us! Looking at everything that would have been so expensive hiring out of the venue, we 110% got our money's worth. You get SO MUCH when you book a wedding here. With 5pm required ceremony time, golden hour pictures were TO DIE FOR!!! My husband and I have already talked about doing an anniversary party in a year at Bay Pointe, and we would come back to Ashley, Madison, and Jocelyn in a heartbeat. If we would do it all over again (knowing what we know), we would chose Bay Pointe again. I think a lot of the issues stemmed from a change in order of command, renovating, and some turnover, which caused a lot of disorganization and miscommunication. That's why I only took off one star, because these are all very easy, fixable things! Overall, I would tell anyone and everyone we meet to book and event, wedding or no, at Bay Pointe Inn.

The best Wedding venue. Start to finish planning was spot on . Professional and friendly staff Food was amazing

We had the most incredible wedding weekend thanks to Bay Pointe! Our wedding ceremony and reception were both held at the BoatHouse Villa. It comfortably hosted 80 guests. The staff from start to finish made our weekend memorable and stress free. The food was delicious, so many of our guests commented on this! We also hosted a farewell brunch in the Waterfront room which has beautiful views. We cannot recommend Bay Pointe and their preferred vendors enough :)

I cannot say more good things about Bay Pointe Inn. From start to finish, they exceeded my expectations. My husband and I looked at over 20 venues and this one was the best by far, we knew it was the one as soon as we pulled in. The venue absolutely speaks for itself and the staff were even better. They catered to all of my guests and many of my guests said that they have never been to a wedding with such amazing workers. I want to get married all over again just to experience one more day with them. They are truly amazing and I couldn’t recommend them enough. They coordinated with me the whole day to make sure everything was perfect and they succeeded. It was by far the best wedding I could have ever imagined, it was perfect. Love love LOVE them!! ❤️❤️❤️

Absolutely everything was PERFECT at our wedding. From the moment we booked Bay Pointe as our venue and through the entire year of planning they have made this process so easy. The coordinators do an amazing job with their responsiveness to emails, they always answered all my questions and were very nice and professional. I could not imagine ever having a better experience anywhere else. We got married at the lakefront pavilion and our guests could not stop talking about how it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. The food was great, my timeline was followed perfectly, the flowers and landscaping made for beautiful photos. I could go on and on!!! Our day was so perfect <3 THANK YOU BAY POINTE!!! <3 :)

We were beyond happy with our experience with Bay Pointe in general! We live 2.5 hours away and accidentally stubbles upon The Woods when we accidentally didn’t put a distance for our search. Nothing compared! Mariesa was an amazing sales rep. She answered all our questions and did an amazing job showing us the venue locations we checked out (ultimately falling in love with the woods). Juno, our event coordinator was awesome! She was always available for any questions. But honestly who made our experience was our Event Coordinator for the day because Juno was out of town. Lane was AMAZING! They not only were so nice and friendly. They checked in throughout the night but just enough. They were always around but never overbearing, and they saved the day when our cake vendor messed up and said we never discussed a cupcake tower and didn’t bring one. Lane walked across the street to the inn and found a cupcake tower for us when our baker just left without caring! Would recommend this venue to anyone. The only downfall is you DON’T have a place to get ready day of unless you rent the cottages for two nights. That was the only thing made unclear from the start! If you’re looking for a place that provides space to get ready because you don’t have someone to take the cottage off your hands the night of the wedding, this isn’t for you!

Bay Pointe Inn, the hidden gem in West Michigan. I knew long ago before I was engaged I wanted to get married here. What I didn't know is that this day would be flawless because of this place. The moment you walk through the doors Bay Pointe is on it. They make sure every detail is executed and you have a reliable contact. Our guests raved about this place & it's truly the only place in Michigan where everything is in one place. I highly recommend looking here to get married!

We had the most beautiful wedding at Bay Pointe Woods. The staff was incredible, the sales managers are amazing and walked through each step of planning with us, and the day of coordinator was so helpful. We would highly recommend Bay Pointe as a whole for a venue when planning your upcoming wedding.

We had the most fantastic wedding at Bay Pointe. The lake and grounds are gorgeous, their food is delicious and they streamline the lead up to the day to make it easy for you to plan.

We had the perfect day, thanks to your whole staff! Everyone that we talked with said the food was amazing and loved the venue in general. From the ceremony site to the reception hall, all of the decor and staff we had were excellent. We really had the best day and we thank you so so much!! It was absolutely perfect and I would recommend this location to any newlyweds!

My husband and I recently were married on August 20th at Bay Pointe Lakefront Pavilion. Our ceremony was held on the lawn and our reception was held underneath the pavilion. From the moment we first toured the venue with Ashley Nadeau to having Juno Hickman as our event supervisor; there was constant communication, advice, and assistance provided to me and my husband. Juno was our main contact throughout the wedding planning process so I just want to give her a special shout out - my husband and I live 3 hours from the venue so planning a wedding long distance could have been a challenge but Juno did not skip a beat. She was always readily available and provided assistance very quickly. We can’t thank you enough, Juno! The venue was stunning from start to finish. The location is honestly incredible. The hotel rooms were super nice - especially the Bridal Suite. We picked the Tuscan Buffet and let me tell you, the food was amazing. The bar staff was top notch - especially Megan! She not only knew what my husband and I were drinking but she also knew what our parents and bridal party was having. My husband and I never went empty handed. I think I speak for my wedding guests when I say this - you helped make our night enjoyable so thank you, Megan! The morning after we woke up and we were just in AWE at how perfect our wedding day truly was. Our friends and family had nothing but good things to say about Bay Pointe. Highly recommend! You won't regret it!

We had a beautiful wedding on 8/19. Venue, weather, staff and food were all excellent. We did the Ruby small plate package with Tour of the Mediterranean. It was a fun strolling dinner with food stations.

I cannot recommend Bay Pointe Woods enough! My team of Juno, Ashley, and Nat were amazing and I couldn’t have pulled it off without them.

Bay Pointe Inn wedding venue is absolutely amazing! The Wedding staff, coordinator, bar tenders, etc. We’re all fantastic! The only complaint is it seems like the Wedding venue and the resort front desk do not coordinate. We had multiple issues with front desk personnel when booking rooms for the wedding, as well as while we were staying with the front desk stating they didn’t have us booked for the honeymoon suite when we had it confirmed thru the coordinator. (Including a bottle of wine with our names on it once we finally convinced the front desk to let us in the room). Beyond that, absolutely wonderful! Gorgeous rehearsal, wedding and reception! Highly recommend!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Bay Pointe Woods July of 2022! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. We both have large families/extended family and wanted a place to comfortably fit a guest list of 200-220. The Woods venue was absolutely perfect! From the moment we met with Mariesa during our initial tour, we knew this place was for us due to how organized and professional everyone was. Bay Pointe staff organizes weddings all year round and are truly professionals when it comes to every last detail. Any question or concern I had leading up to wedding day was answered in 12 hrs or less. The staff are incredible to work with! One of my favorite parts of this venue is having everything in one place. We had our rehearsal dinner at the fireside room in the hotel, and the cottages and hotel were able to house our entire bridal party, plus ones, and majority of our family and friends. The only thing I wish we could’ve done is rented more of the cottages or hotel rooms, but there is a limited amount due to dividing the availability amongst the other 2 weddings that could be occurring at the other 2 venues on Bay Pointe’s property. They are currently in the works of building more cottages so this would open up a lot more room availability for future weddings. Last but not least, the food is absolutely INCREDIBLE here! We had duo plated meals for our reception dinner. Each plate had chicken and a filet included on it. I can’t tell you how many guests we had tell us that was one of the best filets they have ever had. Whenever you have to cook over 200 filets at once you don’t expect anything special, but these were all cooked to perfection!! They all cut like butter! My husband and I asked the staff if there was anyway they could box up our leftovers since we didn’t want to over stuff ourselves before we hit the dance floor. The staff saved us two unused meals and had them waiting for us in our complimentary wedding night suite in the hotel. I was so happy to have a fresh filet waiting in the room for us at 1am after our reception! Overall, we had such a wonderful experience! I would recommend Bay Pointe to anyone over and over again!!!

Everything was wonderful. The venue is beautiful, good food, great staff. They made our wedding weekend amazing.
