Early May @ Bluffton

This house was everything we needed for a stay to meet up with family. We had our dogs with us, and they really enjoyed the walks along the nature trail and the beach. Our younger grandkids really appreciated the park at the end of the street, with the beach another block beyond that. When we hosted dinner, there was enough room to cook for and serve everyone. We were close enough to walk to the local coffee shop. If we wanted anything more, it was a short drive to downtown or the mall area. The owner reached out to us during the stay to make sure everything was good or ask if we needed anything. We would definitely stay again.

Nice little house by the Lake

Came with my wife and children to be near the lakefront. Great location with the park just down the block. Walking trails as well that take you right along the lakefront. House was nicely supplied with every little essential you could think of. Definitely a home away from home. Property owner was very professional and courteous. He made sure we had everything we need. Definitely will return again soon. Thank you !

Muskegon Winter Fishing Trip 2024

This property was a perfect pic for our trip. We had two teenagers my husband and myself. Ned’s were super comfy. Lots of space lots of extra amenities, blankets, sheets, towels, shampoo, toothbrush, anything you might’ve forgotten was there. Even Ramen noodles for the boys. The house was nice and toasty and warm so we could warm up after we were done fishing on the pier for hours at a time. Nice and close lots of great restaurants in the area Pet friendly so we could bring our dog. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone. The hosts were super nice and available for anything we needed. But we didn’t need anything because everything was perfect.

Bluffton beach house

Excellent accommodations beyond our expectations. The house was very inviting just like home. Condiments in refrigerator and any disposable paper products you could need. The host was attentive but not intrusive. Would love to stay at this house whenever we go to Muskegon.

Quiet and Relaxing Neighborhood

Our family stayed for 2 nights while hubby and son fished. Close to boat launch, park, beach, walking/running path, and a lot of food/shopping places. The house was clean and well stocked with everything you’d need. The owners are easily accessible if there were to be any issues, but we had none. Neighbors are friendly and it’s not uncommon to see wildlife wandering through the yards (we saw deer, cranes, rabbits, etc). It was a great stay and we’d definitely stay again 😁

Book it already!

There is nothing negative to say about this property. From check in, amenities, location, and communication, this property exceeded what I expect from a VRBO. We used this instead of a hotel for a weekend trip for a baby shower and I'll choose it again whenever I visit Muskegon, if it's available.

Stayed for the Tulip Festival in Holland, MI

I was impressed with the thoughtfulness of the owners of this cabin. They did not necessarily spend a lot of money to do so, but they absolutely thought of everything. We found that they even had a couple of toys for our 1.5 year old, which was just a magical surprise. The property is well maintained, clean, bright and cheerful. For a family with young kids, it is within walking distance to an absolutely wonderful playground and has a generous backyard. We stayed here for the Tulip Festival and it was about a 45 minute drive there and back. It is in a nice little area of Muskegon that felt very safe and well kept. We felt right at home and I was really impressed with their selection of cozy blankets.

Refreshingly laid back approach appreciated!

Please do not stay at this property expecting a luxury stay and then give them a bad review. This property is entirely adequate, comfortable, laid back, and an excellent value. Our family of four was road weary and had an excellent stay. ALL four of us were comfortable enough to sleep for 10 hours...which literally never happens! We enjoyed the park and lake walk just outside the door. The kitchen had all we needed to make simple meals. We would happily stay here again if in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Rowe

Host profile image
We are an average family in Grand Rapids, MI with 4 kids and love to hang out at the beach whenever we get the chance!

Why they chose this property

We love the Muskegon area and this location is perfectly in between Lake Michigan and Lake Muskegon. Quiet setting that is still undiscovered.

What makes this property unique

Best value in the area for the location! We think a great time at a great location shouldn't break the bank :)
