Bayside is a Jack Nicklaus design located in Selbyville, Delaware, part of the Bayside Resort community near the Delaware beaches. The course opened in the early 2000s as part of the resort's development in the coastal region between Bethany Beach and Ocean City, Maryland. Nicklaus routed the layout across relatively flat coastal plain terrain typical of the Delmarva Peninsula, incorporating natural wetlands, ponds, and native grasses into the design strategy. The course features the strategic bunkering and multiple teeing grounds characteristic of Nicklaus designs from this period, allowing the layout to accommodate a range of skill levels. Water hazards come into play on several holes, and the flat topography means wind can be a significant factor, particularly on exposed holes along the perimeter of the property. The design emphasizes course management and position play rather than dramatic elevation changes or forced carries. Bayside operates as part of a resort amenity package that includes additional golf courses and residential components. The setting reflects the agricultural and coastal landscape of southern Delaware, with views across open fairways bordered by marsh grasses and stands of pine. The course serves both resort guests and local members, fitting into the region's concentration of golf facilities that cater to the mid-Atlantic beach vacation market. Conditioning and playability are maintained to resort standards, with Bermuda grass typical of courses in this climate zone.
