Wonderful location, nice home, kids loved the basement, and the assortment of beach items were fantastic. However, the dog hair was gross. Every time you walked across the shag carpets,long white dig hair flew out. The couch had it all around the legs.

This property is clearly well cared for and our host, Melinda, prepared the home with just about everything we could have needed for our stay. The house is located close to restaurants and the beach, so we were able to make the most of our weekend. I would recommend this home to anyone planning a trip to Muskegon!

Cozy bungalow

This property has been very nicely done. It is clean and modern with lots of amenities. Can't think of anything that was lacking. It was very comfortable and charming. Plenty of room for lots more guests. It definitely has a beach house feel to it. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating. Seemed to put a lot of attention to detail into this property.

Fabulous stay!

Great location walkable to shops and right on the bike trail. The house is recently redone and would be a great place to bring young kids with the nicely redone basement. Super clean! All the amenities you might need in the kitchen and access to the garage with beach toys and chairs. Garage access was great to store our bikes. Host was so accommodating. Would stay again!

Wonderful stay - exceeded expectations!

Everything about this experience was great! From questions prior to booking to communication while we were there, Melinda was wonderful! The house itself has so many thoughtful small touches that make it feel incredibly welcoming and like home. When the description says the kitchen is fully stocked, it truly is... In a way I've never experienced with any other rental. We weren't traveling with a baby, but loved that not only was there a pack and play for guests to use, but even a little mattress and fitted sheets for it -- this would have been a dream when our kids were smaller! Thanks for a wonderful experience, we hope to visit again!

Attractive and comfortable house!

We checked in and found a tastefully decorated and well equipped house that proved to be very comfortable for our two day stay. Although we didn't cook, it appeared to have everything needed to cook and enjoy meals on site. The queen beds we're particularly comfortable. Even though the house is situated on a fairly busy street we did not notice any noise while sleeping. The neighborhood had several interesting stores and restaurants within a short walk. The beach area was a short drive from the house. Neither bedroom has a closet, so you will have to use a wall hook to hang clothes. I would recommend adding a small armoire to keep from having to leave suitcases out on the floor, but we managed in spite of not having one. The bunk area downstairs has four beds that would be great for kids, but it's somewhat unfinished, so probably not for adults if they expect the kind of nice accommodations you'll get upstairs. I would confidently recommend this house if you're coming to the area.
