Nice place to visit
tim j., buchanan, MI US
House was very clean 3 bedrooms had plenty of room smaller bedroom had bunk beds and a sigle bed. The backyard was good size and the backporch and deck with the view was great. Outdoor furniture needed updating. Dislikes include a very busy street in the front of the house, hard to open windows onfirst floor for fresh air and no voice activation on main room TV?..but liked the electric fireplace below the TV...overall 4 out of 5 rating.
Florida family fun
Julie R., United States
The vacation rental was perfect for our family which consisted of grandmother, grandfather, mom, dad and 2 year old son/grandson. Bailey's Bayside provided everything we needed to enjoy our vacation.
The layout of the house provided enough space for all of us. The back yard and back deck was very enjoyable. The area was peaceful,quite, and safe. I would certainly recommend this rental. Our hostess was fantastic and extremely kind. We enjoyed our stay!

Great Bay Getaway

What a sweet and peaceful house - perfect for our family of 6. Very clean and well stocked. Bring your boat and enjoy easy access to the bay. Management team is amazing! Look forward to going back next year!!
Home away from home
James C., Middleburg, FL US
Beautiful house, 2 kings size beds up stairs! Very clean! Close by to everything but far enough away that the nights are quiet. Renda is awesome and was there for anything we needed! Owners are very accommodating! Was hoping for a little more water depth at the dock but we knew the water was going to be low. Definitely going back!
Great location and great if you have your own boat.
Justin , Loganville , GA
House was clean and neighbors were friendly. Was able to keep our boat houses dock all week. Short drive to Destin and plenty of stores. Would stay again with family or guy's fishing trip. Property manager always picked up and was very helpful.4/12/2023 at 5:43 PM
