Disliked: Cleanliness
the area was beautiful with accessible lakes and trails, that's all I cared about. It was safe, and accommodations very adequate for me because I am easy going. It has a cottage feel and I liked that.

Enjoyed our stay!
Guest house was clean and nicely decorated. Comfortable. The chickens running around were a little surprise to us, but they got rounded up and were no bother. In fact, they were pretty entertaining. The owner made sure that all of our concerns were addressed. It was very peaceful with a view of the Muskegon river. We enjoyed our relaxing three days here.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The area around the property was wonderful. We loved walking down to the pond at night to see the water at night and the stars in the sky. The facility inside was clean, quaint and cozy. The queen bed mattress could be replaced, as it was a bit saggy in the middle. There are no bunk beds, as shown in the photo. Just one of them remains as a solo twin bed. That was okay for us, since we have just one child. We enjoyed our stay and will come again.

Wonderful place
We enjoyed our stay. The fish were biting really good. Great place to enjoy the outdoors. If they got rid of the carpet, this would be a perfect place.

Enjoyable Stay
Property was as advertised. Clean, peaceful and relaxing. We did stay in the guest house on top of the hill, so you have 20 steps down to the water. A little hard on my husband's bad leg but he survived. Wifi and cable worked well too. We will definitely be back next year.

Quiet - Convenient Location
Quiet little guest house off the main house. Breezeway area in between so we were never bothered with noise. A bit dark inside and areas that could have used a bit more cleaning. Shower was great other than tiny so if you have any size to you, it could be a problem. Convenient location to fishing ramps on either Croton or Hardy and not far from Newaygo. Overall, for what we needed it worked well.

Very good experience!
The area was beautiful and the owners are super cool people. We ended up hanging out with them the whole time. We were disappointed we had to leave them. Great place for relaxing, fishing, hiking, swimming and boating, and getting a small town experience with friendly residents. We will be visiting again.
