"Country living with a salmon run creek running through it and redwood forest covering about half of it. Great schools through 8th grade. Easy access to wildlife marsh/sanctuary and to dozens of beaches, rivers, and forests. Wildlife galore including migratory birds. "

"We moved here in 1996 and love the beautiful life here in Bayside. When we moved here and even to this day we felt like we are on vacation. We live among the beautiful redwood trees and ferns that grow on the property. It's very lush and the people in Bayside are very nice with a community feeling. "
