According to the resort's website, Baderman Island is a self-contained, all inclusive resort destination surrounded by the shores of the Kelsy River.  The island features an array of restaurants, three different hotels to meet the needs of each of the resort's guests, and boasts an almost unlimited list of activities for entertainment of relaxation.  Plans are currently underway for growth and expansion.  Planned enhancements include adding a second 18-hole golf course, an expansion of the botanical gardens, providing wheelchair and golf cast accessibility to walking and hiking trails, and expansion of the spa, recreation areas, and the resorts three hotels.

The island itself is 1600 acres.  Currently, only 750 acres has been developed.  This leaves over 800 acres for development.  In addition to the planned growth and expansion, the island's workforce is expected to double.  The challenge is to provide the management and employees of the resort with technology to support communication, guest needs, training programs, and continuing education without compromising guest convenience and satisfaction.  The education and training for the resort is managed by Boardman Corporate University.
