    Couch was absolutely disgusting. Towels were all damp, shower curtain was a pain to move and the cause of the damp towels. Towels also looked to be older than me. Both bedrooms smell. Property manager was responsive the only time I called (only called in regards to parking and she was very friendly)Location is perfect. Kitchen had everything we needed. The place just needs to TLC.

    The Pere Marquette beach is a Michigan marvel located just steps away from the Bailey Sands cottage. Enjoyed the beaches and some good dog friendly dining spots in Muskegon. I and my wife had a good stay at Bailey Sands cottage for the 2nd year in a row and fully intend to reserve again next year.

    We enjoyed our stay in the vintage cabin right across the street from the beach. A perfect location with multiple outdoor spaces, and a large screened porch where you can unload your beach day added to the comfortable space to relax in. We took a nature walk through a surprisingly shaded dark woods behind the dunes right at the end of the street. We would love to come back.

    We were looking for something small, cost effective, yet easy beach access with some amentities like a firepit. We hit the JACKPOT! Easy walk to the beach and beautiful sensets made this short stay more perfect than we could have imagined. Easy access to the rest of town too. We will absolutely stay again!!!
