Welcome Aboard! “The Boathouse” is a beautiful, waterfront cottage on Mona Lake. The 4 bedroom, 2 full bathroom cottage is updated and modern, with the feeling of being on a large yacht. Nautically inspired design, and yachtsman like touches, will inspire you to take the helm, drop anchor and enjoy a vacation like no other. On the shores edge there is a deck so close to the water you will swear you are riding on the aft of your personal yacht. The hot tub is available year round, relax in the warm water and enjoy the beautiful view. Winter is a great time to visit, Muskegon’s winter sports complex is a short drive. Enjoy X-Country skiing, or try your skills on the luge, then come back, jump in the spa and relax.

There’s also a “head” on each floor with stand up showers, bath and hand towels are provided. The galley has all of your cooking and dining essentials to make delicious meals for your crew. Gather around the butcher block island to share fish stories or sit around our lakeside fire pit and reminisce about your memories of the past. We invite you to “set sail” on a vacation destination like no other, area attractions include Michigan’s Adventure theme park, world class beaches, beautiful Lake Michigan, gourmet restaurants, historic submarine, light houses, musical fountains, zip lines, and ice luges all await.

Fabulous girls weekend!!!!
This property is amazing! The house was extremely clean, and the pontoon boat was wonderful! We loved the fans in all of the bedrooms, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The layout of the house is PERFECT for hanging out and having fun. The kitchen had everything we could ask for and the outdoor living space is lovely! The neighbors were friendly, and we felt VERY safe. We had the PERFECT weekend!!!

Mona Lake House
This was our second stay at this property. The location can’t be beat. The house is cozy, clean, well maintained and has anything you will need. The hosts are so friendly and helpful if any problem arises, however we had a perfect stay. The lake and pontoon are worth staying here alone, but you’ll love the house as well. We are already looking forward to our next stay here!

September getaway and family time
It was a very nice getaway for our family. Comfortable beds, kitchen that had everything we needed, gas grill, hot tub, fire pit and of course enjoyed the pontoon boat. Weather was wonderful - only thing missing was catching some big fish!😀

The best rental house find ever!!!! The location was perfect and having access to the boat made it even better. Between that, the hot tub, and fire pit we were kept busy the whole weekend. The communication from the host was excellent. We can’t wait to rent again!

Sibling get-away
This was the perfect place for 4 senior siblings to get together for a fairly quiet 4 day reunion, enjoy a peaceful setting on the lake and have recreational amenities close to the city. We would have enjoyed the lake, fire pit, boat, and hot tub if the weather had not turned very cold and rainy.

Beautiful + Clean + Cute
This was a great spot for my family to enjoy a long awaited trip together. The house is very clean and beautifully decorated like a yacht. Spacious enough for 5 people to all have their own space and you can’t beat the beauty of boating on Mona Lake. Great for fishing right from the pier and enjoying s’mores when it cools off at night. Kim & Ed are very responsive to any issues and very kind!

Great find on the lake with a beautiful boat!
Don't look any where else in the Muskegon, Norton Shores area! This was a beautiful home, easy to communicate with the host, (so thoughtful), very clean home, has all utensils, cleaning products and even spices for your use. They even had a high chair and pack n play for the baby. It's a beautiful home, no brainer when looking for a peaceful place on a lake!!

Nice stay over July 4
House was very clean. The outside patio was indispensable for family meals for 5. The pontoon boat was in great shape and served us well for exploring the lake and finding swim spots. Lakeside location was terrific, although the neighborhood was a bit close together. We had terrific weather and the air conditioning helped during the heat of the day. Fire pit and hot tub are provided evening activities. Fun week!

Amazing Getaway
The Lake House was perfect from start to finish. I am very particular for clean and it was extremely clean. The lake was beautiful and the boat made the weekend. Walking out and spending the days and evening on Mona Lake was just what our family needed. It was so peaceful. We can not say enough good about this place. The owners were great to respond and so accommodating. This place will not disappoint. We are looking forward to our next weekend at The Lake House.

Pleasant Norton Shores Home
A nice little cottage on Lake Mona. It has everything you might need for a home a away from home. The hosts graciously supplied all sundries that you may need for a week long stay (cleaners, laundry detergent, paper products). The house was tastefully decorated and the beds are comfortable. The best part of this rental is by far the lakefront access and the pontoon boat. Our family loves to fish so this was a perfect bonus. The rental is within 15 minutes of Pere Marquette beach which we loved. A must see is "The Deck" restaurant that features a new band each night at the beach. Overall a great place to stay.

Relaxing Lake House Stay
We spent a week at this house and it was very relaxing. There was enough room for my dad and sister’s family to come visit and hang out. Even though the neighbors are close we felt like we still had some privacy. The house includes a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and extras such as beach towels and games. The kayaks and pontoon boat were wonderful additions to the rental so we could spend lots of time on the lake. We also enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit every night. This was our first lake house rental and it was exceptional. Can’t wait to come back next year.

Lovely last minute getaway
We came up for a long weekend getaway during the Fall and it was simply perfect. From extremely prompt and helpful responses throughout the process by property manager Kim as we planned a last minute getaway to the home having all the small details that make your stay more enjoyable to the extra bonus of having a pontoon boat on a gorgeous lake. Definitely be back!
