Stewarding your greatest asset: time.

Love is spelled t-i-m-e.

We’re founded by fathers who’ve learned the importance of quality time. We’ve learned to appreciate the wisdom of the generation before us, and the fleeting moments with the generation after us.

But that takes time.

We believe in what Bay View represents: family, growth, faith, rest, and community.

Time.

When you come up north, your time should be spent well. Which is why we built this business. When you come to your special haven, we want it to be ready for you to enjoy, not for you to work on.

We love these cottages, and they demand special care.

We’ve led careers in craftsmanship that lasts, gaining wisdom from mentors, and dedicating time to those who’ll come after us.

We are fully licensed and insured.

Enjoy your retreat. We’ll handle the rest.
