Listing does not do this place justice

We were very impressed with this cottage, from the second we entered. Very clean, spacious and had everything we needed. And then there were the views of the lake. Beautiful sunrises, sunsets and overall an awe...experience. Would love to return. Thank you for a great vacation.

Lake house vacation

The lake house was a great choice for my family. The kids loved fishing off the dock, swimming, and rowing. My wife and I prized the tranquility and relaxing on the deck. It’s still close enough to Muskegon that it was easy to run in and out, and we appreciated the cleanliness and roominess for all of us!

Beautiful house in a great location

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property with plenty of space. Greg provided all the information well ahead of time and also was in touch with us through our stay. The pictures do not do justice to this property with beautiful views from the deck and balcony. Very comfortable beds and clean appointments. Highly recommend it.

Beautiful Lake House Getaway

The pictures didnt do this place justice. Tucked away in a private wooded neighborhood alongside a gorgeous little lake. The open concept home and breathtaking lake view made for a relaxing and comfortable stay. There's lots of room in this 3 story home with a walk out basement. It has a lot of steps, so if you may not enjoy it as much if you're not very mobile. I took the row boat out and caught some fish and enjoyed the wildlife. The sunsets are amazing from this property,

"Snoopy Land" Adventures

We had the most amazing family vacation. The house was absolutely perfect to feel like everyone wasn't right on top of each other with some of the most picturesque views. The lake itself is extremely sandy and shallow for young children. There was everything we needed to have wonderful family meals every night. Add in the fact that Michigan Adventure is only about 15 minutes away and you have a perfect vacation for all of us! There are quite a few stairs to get down to the lake itself so if traveling with individuals who this would be an issue for would advise against but for us it was more than fine!

It was a great home for us to have as our base camp to go visit family and friends over the Christmas break. Owner was quick to respond and helpful during the whole stay. We got snowed in for 3 days and played lots of cards together.

Property worked well for us!

The property was perfect for our group of 6 adults! Lots of room in the living room and downstairs common area. The kitchen was plenty big enough for all 6 of us to be cooking at once. The kitchen was well stocked with pans, bowls and cooking utensils. The owner was very responsive to answer some questions I had before we arrived. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Nice Family Getaway

We totally enjoyed our stay for 2 nights in early September. We enjoyed rowing and swimming in the lake. Very quiet and private home. Host was very responsive. The nearest grocery was about 30 minutes away. Very clean with comfortable beds. Definitely recommend.

Great Place

The house was much bigger than expected from the pictures online. Plenty of room for our party of 7 adults. The covered wrap around porch was perfect for those rainy evenings. The host Greg was amazing. He is very accessible and answers your questions promptly. Would definitely recommend this place for a great getaway on the lake.

Great family getaway at the lake

The house is nice and big. It was very clean without any musty smells that you sometimes get at lake houses. The owner was kind and quick with communication. We had two dogs and a big family, and it was more than enough space. There are beautiful views of the lake from the decks, which make for a very peaceful setting.

Wonderful, Tranquil and Comfortable

Great house, comfortably furnished from the couches to the beds. Wonderful view. The stairs to the lake made a trip to the gym unnecessary BUT worth it as my gym doesn't have the over all peaceful and beautiful view as this place does.

Quiet and lovely location

We couldn't stop gazing out the front window at the beautiful view. But when we finally managed to pull away from that view, we saw a spacious, clean, nicely decorated space. Everything we needed was at hand. The owner/manager made all instructions clear and easy to follow.
