Wonderful time with our family. The pontoon boat just completed our stay. Everything was clean and stocked with everything we might need. Fire ring with wood provided. Kayaks too. The owner was very available to explain our arrival and answer any questions. We hope to be able to come back next year.
We came up for a long weekend getaway during the Fall and it was simply perfect. From extremely prompt and helpful responses throughout the process by property manager Kim as we planned a last minute getaway to the home having all the small details that make your stay more enjoyable to the extra bonus of having a pontoon boat on a gorgeous lake. Definitely be back!
Property was exactly as pictured. Perfect spot for a family getaway woth our friends and family from Cjicago. Two families with 4 kids and the place was perfect. Good location on the lake and close to any stores (Meijer, sbux, etc). Very nice boat was a nice benefit also!
Perfect place for a family weekend. Home is extremely clean, kitchen stocked with everything you need to cook. The view is great and being able to enjoy cruising on the pontoon was terrific.
We had such an amazing stay! The house was very clean, views were beautiful, and the hot tub and boat were great for our family. Having the boat on the property really made our trip. The hot tub is drained and refilled up before each guest arrives which is extremely nice. This was easily my family’s favorite vacation home we have booked. The hosts were also very responsive!
Really enjoyed our 2 week stay in Pure Michigan. The cottage was just as described and fit our family perfectly. I must say having access to a pontoon sealed the deal on this VRBO. Thank you and hope to see you next year.
I am so thankful we chose this property. They are such kind and considerate people. When we had a problem they were so timely in response and willing to talk things through.
What a wonderful property. I hope all who stay here have such a wonderful time .
Lovely property with plenty to do (the boat was a huge hit!). The backyard with the view of the lake was so relaxing. Everything was as advertised. Would definitely stay again!
My family and I had a wonderful stay. Everything was as described. The place was clean and the process of the stay was well organized. Both the owner and property manager were easy to work with and very friendly. My family and I were VERY happy with our stay!
This property is amazing! The house was extremely clean, and the pontoon boat was wonderful! We loved the fans in all of the bedrooms, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The layout of the house is PERFECT for hanging out and having fun. The kitchen had everything we could ask for and the outdoor living space is lovely! The neighbors were friendly, and we felt VERY safe. We had the PERFECT weekend!!!
This was our second stay at this property. The location can’t be beat. The house is cozy, clean, well maintained and has anything you will need. The hosts are so friendly and helpful if any problem arises, however we had a perfect stay. The lake and pontoon are worth staying here alone, but you’ll love the house as well. We are already looking forward to our next stay here!
What a great house and property. We enjoyed the boat and hot tub. The property was close to the beach and we enjoyed hanging outside as well. Would highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a place in and around Muskegon
It was a very nice getaway for our family. Comfortable beds, kitchen that had everything we needed, gas grill, hot tub, fire pit and of course enjoyed the pontoon boat. Weather was wonderful - only thing missing was catching some big fish!😀
Our family enjoyed being on Mona Lake at Norton Shores and the amenities included with the house....Pontoon Boat, Kayaks and Hot Tub.. Also enjoyed watching the family of eagles from across the lake.
Very clean and stocked with everything you need. Hot tub was great especially after a day of X-country skiing. Beds were comfortable and more than enough room for all. Can't wait to book for a summer getaway!
The Beach House on Mona Lake was a perfect spot for our family vacation! It was newly remodeled and decorated with a lovely beach vibe. The brand new included pontoon boat was a fantastic bonus as were the
Kayaks, fire pit, hot tub and lovely outdoor area.
The lake was easy to navigate and not overly crowded.
The best rental house find ever!!!! The location was perfect and having access to the boat made it even better. Between that, the hot tub, and fire pit we were kept busy the whole weekend. The communication from the host was excellent. We can’t wait to rent again!
This was the perfect place for 4 senior siblings to get together for a fairly quiet 4 day reunion, enjoy a peaceful setting on the lake and have recreational amenities close to the city. We would have enjoyed the lake, fire pit, boat, and hot tub if the weather had not turned very cold and rainy.
This property was everything promised. Kim, property manager, was friendly and great with communication. The house was greatly appointed and we thoroughly enjoyed the space and use of the pontoon. I will definitely return to this location!
Don't look any where else in the Muskegon, Norton Shores area! This was a beautiful home, easy to communicate with the host, (so thoughtful), very clean home, has all utensils, cleaning products and even spices for your use. They even had a high chair and pack n play for the baby. It's a beautiful home, no brainer when looking for a peaceful place on a lake!!

Why they chose this property
The unique feeling of being on a large yacht with all the comforts of home. Nautical themed cottage with shiplap walls and bright white modern touches. Two decks to enjoy the outdoors. Beautiful lake with Lake Michigan access gives you the best of both worlds. Enjoy a fireside chat around our lakeside firepit. Enjoy a cruise around the lake in our 2021 Bennington pontoon.
