About this property

Bailey Sands: Adorable Vintage Beach Cottage, steps from Lake Michigan beach

Bailey Sands is an adorable cottage on a private drive, just across the street from the beautiful Pere Marquette Beach, the large public beach in Muskegon, Michigan. Walk the beach to the beach BBQ restaurant, or down the wooded trail just behind the cottage for a nature adventure. Close to nature, beach and trails, but yet isolated enough for optimal safety. Enhanced disinfection and cleaning procedure will also give you peace of mind. Beach has playground equipment and vendors that sell ice cream and drinks. There is a dog beach down the way, and dogs are allowed in the wooded sand dunes as well. Short drive to Michigan Adventure Amusement Park, or the many breweries and wineries located in this part of West Michigan. Bailey Sands has 2 bedrooms-1 queen, 1 full/twin bunk, and pull out couch. Bath includes bathtub shower. Fully furnished kitchen, gas grill, fire pit, all the items you'll need for the beach, sand box for the kiddies, extended back private deck, and large 3-season front porch. Cottage has high speed internet, an antennae for local channels, and smart tv with Netflix. Cottage has central heat and a large window air conditioner. Parking for two standard vehicles right at cottage, space on nearby street for others.
The cottage is all season; this area has amazing winter outdoor activities including a public luge, nearby excellent sledding, and ice skating as well as cross country trails.
Summers starting in 2018 will be week to week, from Saturday to Saturday (Mid June-Labor Day).
Ask about a 10% discount for next year (2019) for stays of 4 nights or more with contract and payment through the mail.

Why they chose this property

These cottages were built in 1930's as a collective of 5 cottages with a bathhouse in the middle...much has changed since then. What has not changed is the absolute beauty of this area...a very large, extremely clean beach with wooded areas too. One beach restaurant and ice cream shop, but otherwise quiet and spacious area. A place to decompress.

What makes this property unique

This is a true getaway, yet everything you may want or need is just a short drive away....
