This is a wonderful property that was accurately described in the listing. We chose it because it was on Muskegon lake ... hence the opportunity to have coffee and watch the sunrise. And ... only a 3-block walk to the sand beaches of Lake Michigan. Check-in and check-out were transparent. Thank you to the hosts.

The location of this property was so perfect, we loved spending time on the dock and relaxing, catching fish, and just overall enjoying the serene lake views. The beach is very close by, I enjoyed running and exploring all over along the shore. Truly this was one of the best houses I have found on VRBO. Beds are super comfortable with lots of pillows and extra blankets. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking, and beach towels, chairs and a wagon to use for your beach trips. I can't recommend this house enough, I promise you will be not be disappointed!

Great property to stay at! We had weather ranging from gloomy/stormy to gorgeous sunshine and there were things to do no matter the weather. The house was clean, everything worked. It was very comfortable for sleeping/lounging/hanging out. The host was easy to communicate with and made sure we had what we needed. The property was honestly close to so many things to do/place to go. The neighborhood was cute, felt like a safe place to stay and the neighbors were friendly. 10/10 would recommend staying here!

Great little place right on the water. Everything was very clean and quiet. The only complaint is that you shouldn’t ask your guests to strip the bedding or do laundry.

Perfect Spot!

The house was very clean and communication with the Property Owner was easy. The yard and view alone warrant spending time at the property, and Perre Marquette Beach is only a few minutes away. Perfect location for a summer getaway!

Very clean and nice area to sit near the water under pergola. Short walk to the pier and lighthouse at Lake Michigan. Good lake in the morning to do stand-up paddleboarding. Very peaceful and relaxing visit. Beautiful sunrises over Muskegon Lake.

It was a beautiful property and everything was as described. My kids were able to fish off the dock early in the morning and we were close enough to head to the beach nearby during the day. They had all the beach supplies needed, which was much appreciated! We enjoyed the space and would definitely go back!

Great property! 10 minute walk to Lake Michigan. House was clean, updated, and had everything we needed. The only reason we wouldn't stay again would be because I would want a place with 2 bathrooms for 6 people but for 4 people it's perfect!

Amazing property

The house was fantastic - clean, airy, bright and actual quite spacious for its size (more than I was anticipating based on photos). But the dock area was the highlight- perfect place to watch the scenery, swim around, and generally sit and enjoy each other’s company. Could not have asked for better.

Fantastic location, great views, amazing hospitality!

This house was exactly what we were looking for! Right on Lake Muskegon and a 5 minute drive/16 mile walk to Lake Michigan. Historic area, ice cream stand close by, cute grocery/liquor store nearby. The house literally had everything we needed from extra fluffy towels, kitchen supplies, a wagon with beach chairs if we wanted to use and fire wood for the outdoor fire pit. We enjoyed coffee on the dock in the morning and wine in the evening. Have already inquired about booking again next year:)

Thank you for your kind review. I appreciate your commenting on the closeness to the beach. It truly is a perfect location where you are on Muskegon Lake and in such close proximity to Lake Michigan and the beach. In your review you said 16 mile walk to the beach, I think you meant 16 minutes. Correct?

We stayed here in late June. The property was beautiful. Amazing location! The dock is on Muskegon lake, and it's about a 10 minute walk to the Lake Michigan Beach as well! There is a small grocery store about a 3 minute drive or 10 minute walk away as well. A few restaurants nearby, lots more 10 or 15 minutes drive away. The cottage is very well appointed, the owners have thought of basically everything! The owner was also very quick with communication. Wonderful stay!

Relaxing

The home is located at a beautiful spot right on Muskegon Lake. The sound of the water and noise from the Lake is refreshing. You are for away from the normal noise of your everyday life. With a beautiful and large beach on Lake Michigan not even 5 minutes away it makes this an ideal spot for a family vacation. Michigan Adventure is only 25 minutes down the road. My family had a wonderful time.

Great Lake Getaway

Stayed at the property with my family over a holiday weekend and we had a great time. Home was clean and appeared to be recently remodeled. The early mornings and sunsets looking out on Lake Muskegon were my favorite. Nice fire pit and plenty of firewood along with a clean propane grill. Property is right on Lake Muskegon and about a 15 min walk to Lake Michigan. Day trips to Grand Haven and Holland are very easy. I would recommend this property for a family looking to spend a long weekend on the water. The only cons are that there is only one bathroom. Not a massive deal but prepare to do some shuffling in the mornings and evenings. Biggest issues was an incomplete fence on the left side of the property which led to the neighbors dogs using the backyard as their bathroom and they didn’t care. Dogs were always off-leash and came did their business in the yard leading me to have to clean it up.

Great place to stay. Cottage has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Love the front room with large TV and big, comfortable couch to relax on. The deck and dock area was outstanding place to enjoy the lake. Caught fish right from the dock, was so much fun!! And the location of this place, being a few blocks from the Lake Michigan beach, makes this place top notch.. I will definitely be coming back!!
