Peaceful Waterfront Home on the Muskegon River

This 1,300 sf waterfront house is nestled into the hillside of the Muskegon River in Stanwood Michigan on a private road. The quiet country location is peaceful and beautiful yet only 10 miles from downtown Big Rapids. This meticulously maintained home can be used as a summer getaway on the water or a winter retreat close to snowmobile trails. The main level entrance contains a family room with fantastic river views. There is also a full kitchen, dining area, utility room with washer/dryer, full bath and bedroom on this main level. Relax outside on the huge deck and feel like you are right over the river! Go upstairs for an additional bedroom, full bath and an a large 20x24 living area with scenic river views. Bring your fishing pole and cast a line! Feel free to bring your own boat and attach to the 30' seawall; this river opens up into a large all-sports lake right before Roger's Dam.

Perfect Lake House Weekend
This house was exactly what my friends & I were looking for to host a fall kayaking weekend. The host was extremely accommodating, even let us check in early. They were quick to respond to all questions and even left us snacks 😃. The house is perfectly set up, comfortable and located close to town.

Exactly what we needed
This property is a perfect arrangement of everything you could possibly need. You will not find a cleaner house. The property owner was surprisingly responsive which was nice. I have zero complaints or even recommendations on how our stay could be better. The kayaks were great. The location was great. We loved it.

River Retreat
Comfortable, clean, and well-appointed home with awesome 180° views of the Muskegon River. Pleased to have two kayaks and necessary accessories to enjoy paddling around the area. The location is serene. Spent mornings and evenings relaxing on the large deck overlooking the river. Expansive grassy front yard was perfect for bocce and ladderball (and it was shaded from midday on). Highly recommend this home!

Thanksgiving getaway
We loved our time at the house. Our college student joined us for meals and family fun. Thanks to Gail’s snack basket, spices, staples Instantpot and Crockpot we had many delicious meals and lots of family time all while enjoying the view of the water.

Cute cottage
The house was super clean! It has a large family room for gathering and another smaller sitting room with a tv(which was perfect for my granddaughter to play her video games 😊). Our stay was in February, but there is a large deck looking over the River that would be great to sit out out and enjoy the view.
