Bay Point Experience

Great time at Bay Point!

Very nice property and great location

Great property in the middle of bay point - our family loved the house and overall experience. The house/kitchen were well appointed with spices and other pantry items. Would definitely stay again!

Pros: The house has a great layout and accommodated 6 adults and 5 children very well. Owner was responsive. The location and amenities of this community are great. Cons: We were disappointed in cleanliness of house and lack of some items, some of which I had emailed ahead of time to ask if they would be available and was told they would be. Most of the bathrooms didn't have hand soap upon arrival. (We did finally find some in a cabinet.) No laundry detergent at all. Each bathroom only had one roll of toilet paper so by end of week we were out and realized there were no extra rolls anywhere. Carpet and couches were dirty and spots on walls. Bed linens upstairs were also very low quality and old. One of the pillows was nearly disintegrated. Kitchen items have seen a lot of use. The oven had such a mess on the bottom that we had to actually clean it ourselves to be able to use it. We were told by owner that an HVAC check up appt was scheduled during our visit. They noted if we weren’t comfortable that they would reschedule. Not a big deal to us because it was scheduled for 12:30 and we’d likely not be there. This information was incorrect and the HVAC appt was actually hours after we were told it would be and we were not expecting it. We were also told a cleaning staff member would be there to let them in but they were not. Property would have a higher rating if better equipped with supplies and better cleaning.

Home was large and accommodated our family so well. Property needs some updating. Carpets and furniture need cleaned, overhead fans not working well, dirty refrig upon arrival and some drawers broken in refrigerator. Many other things that need to be repaired and updated. Master closet nearly usable since it was filled with linens etc and totally unorganized. Garage door is not working properly and we had to spend time with repairman and it still did not work well. Overall this property could be very nice if some money and time was spent to get it in better condition. We rent often and were somewhat disappointed.

Great place for a family getaway. Great amenities and close to attractions.

great house

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Every summer, our family of 21 gets together for a week of family time. We rented this villa and it was the BEST week we have had in the 5 years we have stayed. The property is amazing and extremely well-equipped with great amenities and extras galore. It has everything you need for a perfect Lake Erie family getaway. Our kids (young cousins) loved sharing the bunk room and it gave moms and dads the ability to have some privacy as well. The other bedrooms were well-appointed and beds were comfy. The place was clean as a whistle upon arrival. The front screen porch was also a nice feature and the various gathering spaces worked well for our group. Many extras here - kayaks and fishing gear for enjoying the nearby bay, a 6 person golf cart (for an additional rental fee), a large gas grill and a outdoor griddle. The community itself (Bay Point Resort) is gated and lovely with access to a pool and pool house with gym equipment, a market, a tiki bar with live music, a sandy beach, a waterfront restaurant with more live music on weekends. There is a park for the littles as well as lovely and amazing in sunsets over Sandusky Bay. If you are looking for a wonderful place to enjoy all that Lake Erie, Marblehead, Catawba, Cedar Point and the islands have to offer, this is a perfect option.

My family and I love bay pointe. The house was big enough to fit everyone (2 families plus grandma and grandpa, 6 adults and 4 kids) and was within walking distance to the pool and small beach. The playground, marina and large beach we're a short golf cart ride away. Lots of fun!
