Great property with all the amenities you could possibly think of. Host had thought of everything as far as supplies and extras. Only note would be the beds were fairly uncomfortable but everything else more than made up for it. One of the best stays I've had with Vrbo and will definately be back.

This is the second time I stayed in this VRBO. There were 3 of us and we all agreed this is a wonderful property. It is warm and cozy and inviting. There are many amenities that make it nice such as a well stocked kitchen. We had family over for dinner and while we brought mostof what we needed to cook, it was nice that there were some spices available that we didn’t bring. The location is terrific. We walked the channel and the beach. I recommend this VRBO and give it a 5 star rating.

"Perfectly Peaceful Getaway on the Muskegon Channel"

I had an amazing stay at this beautiful house on the Muskegon Channel! The peaceful location offered stunning views, and the home itself was cozy, clean, and well-equipped. It was the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a serene getaway!

This place is perfect. You can basically just bring your own food, because they seem to have provided everything else. Every toiletry you can think of is there if you forget to pack something. The kitchen has everything you would have at your own home. Top to bottom, the home is spotless inside and out. The location is terrific, providing a view of the all-day daily parade of boats going back and forth through the channel. If you have the opportunity to rent this house, don't hesitate!

House was very clean. Nicely decorated. Very welcoming upon walking through door. House is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen has everything you need to prepare a meal. One of the best equipped homes we have stayed at and we stay in vrbo homes a lot. Centrally located. Too cold during our stay to sit outside but In the warmer weather it would be awsome. We saw a few boats go through channel and a couple bigger ones. Very nice walkway along the channel in front of the house. Thank you for sharing your house

Short Stay

As off season did a short stay to visit family and friends. So much better than a hotel and the view of the channel is wonderful. The house is newly redone and has all the perfect amenities. The kitchen is better stocked then a Homegoods store.

The house was amazing! The location is on a quiet dead-end road and right along the channel so you see lots of boats coming and going which was fun to watch. It is a quick walk to the beach and The Deck restaurant so you don’t have to worry about parking or traffic. The availability of having bikes and a wagon for use was nice. The house was well stocked, including items you may forget to pack (floss, toothpaste, soap, etc), it was very clean and comfortable and we would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Harris

Host profile image
I love being a host because it allows me to bring each home to life by telling a unique story based on its style. Being from the area and living here, I have a deep connection to these homes and the community. My passion is creating spaces where guests can truly relax and feel at home, no matter where they’re coming from. Each home I design is meant to offer comfort, warmth, and a sense of belonging.

Why they chose this property

This home has been a dream of ours for over 17 years. My husband and I always said that if we ever had the chance to buy it, there were so many things we would love to do with it. We used to pass by it on our boat, admiring it from the water, imagining all the possibilities. Then, the opportunity came—and we’re still pinching ourselves, realizing that this dream is now our reality. Welcome to a long-awaited dream come true, where every detail reflects the pride and love we have for this special place. We hope you feel the same warmth and joy that we do every time we step through the door.

What makes this property unique

We truly believe this little gem is one of the best catches on the entire water channel. It’s a home that everyone knows and loves—a true standout! Boaters often pass by, pointing it out, because it’s just that special. Now, you get to be a part of the magic too. Thank you for choosing Always Vacation Rental for your getaway. We know you’ll love being here just as much as we do!
