Very Sad
We booked this for a weekend wedding. The day of our check in my youngest brother died unexpectedly. I reached out to the owner for a full or partial refund and he said there was nothing he could do. I then reached out to VRBO for assistance and after some conversations they indicated that the owner was not willing to refund any of the money. Very upsetting that he could not find it in his heart to do the right thing

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.

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,

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!

"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!

Peaceful
My family had a very peaceful time at this property. The lake is quiet, and we were able to relax the whole week. The house and decks are very comfortable. Everything was clean, and the host provided essentials such as hand soap and toilet paper. The views from the decks are exceptional! We saw and heard so many different types of birds. The week we stayed was particularly hot and muggy, so the air conditioning in the bedrooms was much appreciated! The only thing we want to mention to future renters is that there are quite a few stairs down to the lake and dock. The stairs are fairly steep. We were fine with them, but we wanted to mention them for people who may have difficulty with stairs. The host provided deck chairs, but if you want to sit down by the lake you have to carry the chairs down the stairs and then back up again at the end of your stay. It was definitely worth it, but again, may be difficult for some people. This property is quite beautiful, quiet, and serene. We were able to see a bald eagle on a few occasions too! Overall, a wonderful place to stay. Thank you!

Way Exceeded Expectations
My son and I spent the weekend there with my two labrador retrievers. The property is absolutely gorgeous. It sits overlooking a very tranquil and beautiful lake. We heard and saw birds constantly. There was no road, human, or motor noise at all. We brought our kayaks and enjoyed the lake. Our dogs enjoyed a swim,( it was too cold for us still this early in the year!) The house is extremely comfortable. You could easily have a much larger group here. Property manager was a delight to interact with. We would return in a heartbeat and hope to do so.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Great family time
We loved it here. Rustic area but the home had everything we were looking for. Right on a small lake and we all enjoyed the fishing from the dock. Lake is several steps down from the house and the trip back up took some time. The house is roomy and has all the conveniences of home. Most stores etc were a short drive. Can't wait to schedule another trip to this house.
