Family getaway
The house was wonderful and perfect for our family vacation! It’s conveniently located near the beach and downtown. The owner, Nicole and the property manager, Lisa were both great with communication throughout our stay even going above and beyond what we expected. The house was very clean, the basement was perfect for our kids to hangout in on those rainy days and the yard was a great size for yard games and nights around the fire pit.

Amazing location and property
This property was just what we needed for a long weekend. It worked perfectly for my husband and our 11 month old as well as my parents. We all had our space but also felt cozy and like home!

Wonderfully relaxing!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Muskegon. We spent every day at the beach. The home was just perfect for our two families and four teenagers! We put a volleyball net in the spacious backyard and enjoyed sitting back there around the bonfire as well. The decor is modern and beautiful. Beds- so comfy! Teenagers took over the two bedroom basement level which was really nice. We would love to stay here again!

Weekend trip
We stayed two nights and it was perfect for our family of 6. It was one of the cleanest rentals we’ve stayed in and I’m pretty picky. It’s in a great location and close to the water. Quiet neighborhood and is on a dead end street so very little traffic. Beds were comfortable. The only two things I’d say were tiny issues for us were the wood floors are really loud when you walk on them. So at night our kids would wake up but not a huge issue for us with ages 7,9,11, and 15, but that would have been when they were younger. Also, the basement windows aren’t easily accessible if there was a fire. They don’t open and couldn’t be broken easily. With only one exit that is a concern with young kids sleeping down there. Like I said not a big deal and low likelihood of anything happening but you never know. Overall, we would definitely stay here again, it’s a very clean and beautifully decorated home.

Home away from home.
I rented this house for my best friend and I to have a long weekend beach getaway with our 6 kids ages ranging from 17-7. The house was perfectly described for our needs with the youngest two preferring to sleep upstairs with us and the older 4 taking the bedrooms downstairs. Our kids enjoyed the big backyard with a lovely hammock and firepit set up with plenty of seating. Inside there were plenty of games to play while we cooked or were unwinding for the night. The pictures of this property don't do justice to how cute this house is in person. Everything is really well thought out to provide for guests with little touches to give it a home like beach house feel. It is very close to the beaches and there's a very nice playground in walking distance of the house. It was a perfect home away from home.

Perfect time!
Our four kids and us stayed and it was beautiful. Just enough room, awesome fire pit, games for the kids… amazing time. Yes, the floor squeak. But they’re beautiful original hard wood that add so much character to the home.
