Baywood was originally formed in 1956 as the “Bayside Land and Investment company” as a for-profit corporation. This corporation bought the land now used for the golf course and leased it to another corporation which was formed in 1957 under the name “Baywood Golf and Country Club, a nonprofit entity. In 1972, the for-profit corporation (Bayside) acquired all of the assets of the nonprofit corporation (Baywood) and changed its name to Baywood Golf and Country Club.
