We had a fantastic time during our stay. Location was perfect! Very short walk to the beach so we didn’t have to deal with parking which was nice. We had a pleasant time sitting on the large balcony in the morning sipping our coffee and watching the frieghters pass by. Pricing was fair compared with other properties in the beachside community. Plenty of room as well. We would definitely stay again!

Just what we needed!

Stayed with all adult friends for a weekend near the beach. Ample kitchen, great gathering spaces on the deck and another space to gather at a firepit. We had a rainy, windy weekend and there was enough space to enjoy each other without getting on each others' nerves. Perfect house location to the park, the channel and the beach near the breakwater.

Fantastic beach house with excellent location.

This nice-size beach house not only has 4 bedrooms & 2 full bathrooms, but also an entire “apartment” on the lower level. The house is very clean, has a 2-stall garage, and a perfect deck/balcony overlooking Pere Marquette Park. Our family was so comfortable staying there for a week. The property owner was easily accessible for all questions & needs. Nice back yard for shaded dining & games in the afternoon & evening. Pere Marquette Beach is a premier Lake Michigan beach with wide sand, playgrounds, picnic tables, piers, a walking loop, nice bike trail, channel into Muskegon Lake, unique restaurant, and a shaded grassy park. Our host could not have been more accommodating.

Prime location, comfortable stay.

This location can’t be beat! As you can see in the pictures the interior is older but it is clean, the furniture is comfortable and the 1 bedroom apartment downstairs was a great separation for our multigenerational group. Jeff is a great host and he provided all the linens, toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap and hand soap which was a first for any place that we have rented in the past. If we book a stay in Muskegon again, I would book this home again without hesitation.

Older home, but well maintained. Jeff, the owner, was friendly and quick to respond if we needed something. Fantastic location. Our group loved the proximity to the playground, beach, and The Deck with live music every night. The grownups enjoyed drinks on the deck above the garage and the Michigan sunsets almost every night. Plenty of space for our group of 9, plus one dog. We had a great time!

great visit

Location perfect. Across the street from a park. Within easy walking distance of Pierre Marquette Beach and even closer to another nice smaller beach- the Cove-where the water is a little warmer. Beach restaurant also very close. Spent a lot of time on the deck of the property. On the channel between Lakes Michigan and Muskeegon, so great place for walks. Owner met us there and was easy to communicate with.

Wonderful location!

This was our 2nd time staying at this home. Another great trip to Muskegon. The location of this house is what brought us back. So close to the beaches, the Deck bar, and to the piers. It is so very nice to have a vacation spot where you don’t have to drive to the beach. The front deck is perfect for the lakeside breeze and catching some sun. The host Jeff is great.

Great Location to Water and Great Food

My friends and I have been going to Muskegon on an annual trip for nine years. We LOVE The Deck restaurant, always take a day to go to Michigan's Adventure, a day to drive to Grand Haven (for shops and food), and a day to spend at the beach. This property is within walking distance of The Deck and the nice beach just south of the restaurant and it's easy to hop onto the walking/running trail and it's an easy drive to just about anywhere else you want to go. The owner met greeted us and showed us around -- very welcoming! Parking was great and easy. The deck to the house was awesome to sit on for our morning coffee and evening drinks. The property itself could use some modern upgrades, but we would definitely stay there again.

Great Location!

Very pleased with our stay for many reasons: 1 - Cannot beat the location. Walking distance to beautiful beach, The Deck bar/restaurant, the piers, and the Channel 2 - The front deck on this house is great! Great place to sit and watch the world. We even saw multiple deer one of our evenings. 3 - Plenty of room and nice to have the basement apartment for our teenagers (15-20 yr olds) to have their own space when they wanted to stay up later than the adults and smaller kids. 4 - Well stocked. Kitchen had basic spices, trash bags, paper towels. Tons of towels on both floors. Box fan in bedroom closet. Box of DVDs that came in handy for the kids in our group. Noticed a high chair and baby/young child toys as well (didn’t need for our group but would be great for other families). 5 - Jeff was very friendly and attentive. Was waiting for us on arrival. When we noticed propane tank on the gas grill was low he quickly came over and filled it for us. 100% recommend

Family Time

So enjoyed this home....awesome location and having the separate apartment was a plus for our family with a 3 yr old! - The front porch on this home provides priceless views and the backyard offers a firepit that is a great way to top off the day.....only "hiccup" is that we are a family that loves to prepare meals...this is not a gourmet kitchen, but we improvised....WE will be back!! Thanks Jeff for the history provided on the home and neighborhood. The Roseliep's
