We stayed for a week in March while visiting family nearby and enjoyed having such a nice place to come back to at the end of the day. We thought it was clean and spacious and had everything we needed. The water view was nice and I’m sure will be even better when the weather warms up! Our host, Brandon, was responsive when we had a couple questions. We’d like to stay here again on future visits to the area!
This is a nice place to stay. We really enjoyed everything about it. Any questions we had were promptly answered, and the hosts were very kind and friendly. Would recommend and will be going back in different seasons.
Everything was perfect. Very clean. A lot of activities to do around the area. Loved the view, and the option to use kayaks.Host was very responsive, and attentive.
The "suite" cabin is the perfect place to stay at if you're traveling to the Newaygo area. I slept amazing every night, everything inside seems to be brand new so there were no issues with lights or AC, etc. The back patio view of the lake was amazing and plenty of things to do. I would definitely recommend this place!
The accommodations were amazing, the host communicated promptly and clearly about the check in and check out process. It was a cozy place to stay for the time I was there.
We enjoyed our stayed. We were in the area to ride the Dragon mountain bike trails. This unit was as described with great views of the water. We would stay here again.
Cute town of Croton - I love winter but could see this being very nice for a summer stay as well. Very nice, clean, comfortable accommodations. Brandon very quick to respond to questions.
We enjoyed our stay with a beautiful view of the water. The Cottage was perfect for our stay with many little extras provided. Everything close by for dinning & entertainment. Hope to return when weather is warmer for some fun in the sun & fishing. The host did a great job communicating with us & making sure we had everything we needed for stay!
Our stay here couldn’t have been any more enjoyable. Brandon the host was very informative and responded quickly to any questions that were asked. This property was exactly as described in the listing and had everything that we needed. We booked here for our long awaited vacation and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. A big thank you to Brandon for being the perfect host.
The cottage was great, very comfy and clean. Had everything you really could need. My only complaint would be the lake…not that anyone can do anything about it and very typical of most inland Michigan lakes, lots of weeds, not crystal clear water. The Muskegon river nearby is fantastic though!!! We will be back!!!
I really appreciated the great communication with the property manager. Our family loved the docks for fishing, kayaks, bikes and games on site! We enjoyed being across the street from the beach & ice cream shop. Didn’t love the busy road & traffic noise.
Everything was great. Very clean. Kayaks were fun. Very comfortable stay. Hosts are very quick to respond to questions. Wish one bundle of firewood would have been complimentary. Complete with friendly cat neighbor. Enjoyed the use of bicycles and other amenities.
Not much to choose from to eat
Little too far from Lake Michigan for us
Otherwise very pleasant
