From start to finish, we had a great time. Robert is a great host and as responsive to any questions we had. The cabin was an adorable, river front, place to just relax and unwind! We are already planning our next getaway! Thank you for having a place we could take our two large breed dogs were we all could just be ourselves!

Cute and quiet place that was both warm & cozy. Robert was very up front about everything and it was an easy process. The A-frame is cool and the fireplace really tied the room together.

The cabin was clean and cozy. Our dogs were right at home and loved exploring the woods across the road. Robert was very quick with all communication and of course the hot tub was a much needed added bonus. Will definitely be back!

Lovely get away

Visited with my husband and our two large dogs - it is incredibly hard to find accommodations while traveling with our dogs due to their size and most places only accepting one dog up to 50lbs, so this cabin was a great find for us and was top tier for our needs for a three night stay. The property was beautiful and secluded, nicely kept and the host was very responsive throughout our stay. Would be a great place to bring friends and family for the weekend. We will definitely be back!

Short Visit

Stay was great and the host was very communicative and made sure we have all the access. The only thing needs to be improved is the wifi signal which was slow. Will sure re-visit in future.

Peaceful Riverside Cabin

Stayed at this cabin for a few days to get away and it was perfect for me, really enjoyed the peace and quiet. Loved sitting on the deck viewing the river with a morning coffee and an evening beer. Owner was easy to get a hold of and quick to respond, really appreciated him sending me a text to let me know of some potentially dangerous incoming weather. Thanks, Robert!

Peaceful and Relaxing, just what I needed!

Surroundings were quite beautiful! I chose a winter weekend and the snow coming down with the river in sight was incredible. I could see myself enjoying any season in this location. It was fun watching the flock of turkeys each day and even the bald eagle flying alongside the river. Would absolutely come back for more!

Forest & Flow, Sears Cabin

This cabin was perfect for us. It was right on the river so we fished most of the weekend. We were allowed to have our dog who loved it as well. It was cozy and quiet with every kind of bird you can imagine. Would definitely recommend and stay again as well. Robert, our host, was wonderful and quick to respond too. Thank you!

Right on the beautiful Muskegon river!

Overall, we had a good time. The owner Robert was excellent at communicating with us and answering any questions before we even got to the property, which was nice. The refrigerator/freezer is huge, and held everything we needed for the weekend. We loved the fire pit, the view and relaxing nature sounds were amazing morning to night. My nephew caught two fish as big as his forearm right off the dock! If you’re looking to make a pot of coffee or open a bottle of wine and check out from city life, this is a very good place to do so.

Quite Relaxing location

The house was super cute but needs some updating. The location is amazing! BBQ grill is old, Furniture needs some updating and we did not get Wifi info ( emailed the owner twice with no response). Outdoor is beautiful right on the river. Outdoor would be even better of they had a table. We went to a store and bought one for ourself.

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and quiet A-frame cabin. The river was clear and clean, perfect for tubing or kayaking, and made for such a relaxing experience. We saw plenty of birds and deer during our stay giving it the up-north feel. The check-in process was very easy, and the owner was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The cabin was listed for sleeping 10, but might feel a little tight for that many - our group of 6 was very comfortable. There's a nice grill and fire pit area for evenings outdoors. The yard is large with mature trees that provide plenty of shade, and loved that it's pet friendly! The path down to the river is a little steep, so it might be tricky for little ones or those with mobility issues. I would recommend bringing a table and chairs to put on the back porch, so you have a spot to eat meals or play games outside. There is also a nice beach area a little over a mile from the cabin, Crawford Park. You need a recreation passport to park there, but can tube or kayak to it. The trip was about 35 minutes on a kayak and about 50 minutes for a tube. It is a nice area for little ones to enjoy the river without all the large rocks or debris. Overall, it was a lovely and relaxing getaway spot!
