Expanded cleaning practices beyond CDC guidelines. Fresh water sea breezes are on the channel between Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan And a short walk to an award winning beach. With 2 balconies overlooking the channel, enjoy watching the marine traffic go by all day. The main floor balcony is a covered and screened in, so you can enjoy it no matter the weather or the few bugs we have here. The 5br house sleeps 14 in beds and has 2 living rooms. Great business retreat with 8 single beds. Both have their own TV and sitting area, and the upstairs has 2 twin trundle day beds (4 twin size beds)! Great for kids to have their own space.
Stocked kitchen with everything you'll need for a big family meals, and 2 dining areas that each seat up to 10 each. Step out the front door to the channel boardwalk and walk, run, or bike to the beach, light house, 2 live music restaurants, or submarine museum. We've provide adult and kid bikes, as well as beach chairs for your use. Pere Marquette Beach is like the Caribbean durning summer months. If you bring a boat, there's a launch at the marina all within walking distance of the house called Harbor Towne. If you have a larger boat, Harbor Towne has transient slips to rent. Also within walking distance are 2 up beat award winning restaurants with nightly live music and outdoor seating; The Deck and Dockers! And for any historians, there's a submarine museum featuring the USS Silversides, a real WW2 Submarine about 4 houses down. This is and turn of the century actors colony with the likes of Buster Keaton summering here. We also have one of the largest Michigan purple Martin colonies a few doors down. Lakeside business district is 2.5 miles from us. Restaurants, distillery, cotton candy shop, tea shop, souvenir shops, pizza, pubs, and convenience store. Downtown Muskegon is 5 miles away and is bustling with restaurants, farmers markets, event venues, breweries and distilleries! We provide linens and house towels. Bring your beach towels!

Perfect multi family beach house

This house has plenty of room for family gatherings. There’s great space both inside and out and a great view from the decks overlooking the channel to watch all the boat traffic. The house was very clean and stocked with everything you need. The kids loves having the bikes to ride down to the beach and it’s also close enough to walk. Highly recommend!

Great place on the Channel!

This house is very comfortable and great for a group. Watching the boats go by on the channel is so fun! And there are 2 great beaches very close, you can easily walk to the one on Muskegon Lake. Everything you need is either there or a short drive away. And there’s plenty to do. We rented a pontoon boat and cruised the channel and lakes. And thanks for all the quick assistance Ed!

Wonderful Muskegon Vacation

We rented this property for our family vacation; 8 adults and 6 children ages 2-14. Plenty of room for all; house is lovely and so comfortable. Kitchen very well stocked with everything I could ask for. Fabulous location on the channel, loved watching the endless line of boats going by, especially 3 huge freighters. Especially loved the screened porch, many bikes, coolers, games and cards! Saw the WWII Submarine, did mini-golf, enjoyed beach days. One of the best West Michigan family vacations we’ve had, and look forward to returning next summer! Thank you, Ed, for your warm hospitality and prompt help when needed!

Great vacation near the wonderful Lake Michigan

We had such a wonderful stay at this lovely home on the channel. Everything was as described and there was nothing we were longing for. The kitchen was well supplied, there were bikes and coolers and some beach toys, and the house was clean and well kept. This was a great family vacation, with kids ranging in age from 1 to 14. Everyone, including the adults, found plenty to do. We are already thinking about next summer and hoping this place will be available again!
