After 46 years service as the face of Bay Point Resort and Marina in a variety of positions, General Manager John Paul Dress will be retiring this week.
From a college kid working summers at the Bay Point Gate House to becoming general manager in 2017, Dress has helped the Bay Point Resort grow from a collection of cottages and a small marina to the expansive, luxury marina and campground that is now the largest in Ottawa County.
Over the years, Dress has worked in maintenance, and as marina manager and operations manager. He was named assistant general manager in January 2016 and general manager in 2017.
