Nice place and location

This is the second time I have stayed here. The location is great near Pere Marquette park and beach (easy walk or bike ride), plus near Lakeside, and easy to get to other areas of West Michigan. Love the fire pit area with lots of chairs and a table. Very relaxing place

Perfect Location

This was a great location for our weekend at the lake. It was very easy walking to the lake. The apartment was in a quiet neighborhood. It was very easy to access and was very clean. It's a small place, but plenty of room for two people. We had a wonderful time.

Great stay!

We had a great time staying here at Ed’s place! He was right there through text every time we needed! It was a very short walk to the beach and loved the privacy of the fire pit! It was very clean and a true testament when I have twins babies who are crawling everywhere! No dirty knees at all lol. We will plan to stay again in the future!

Tiny cottage in a nice location

The property is very small but has a nice living area and all the basic equipment. There were no condiments, coffee, etc at all so bring everything with you or plan to hit the grocery store. There is a lot of glass in the sandy trails behind the house so watch your step! Overall, a nice place to stay.

Quaint Lake Michigan Getaway

Dune trails behind house were awesome, along with numerous deer sightings. Easy walk to Pere Marquette (0.5 miles). Bring disposable dishes if you don’t want to wash dishes by hand. Owner was great and proactive in communications. Definitely staying again!!

Carriage House

We enjoyed our stay in the carriage house. It was clean and well equipped with all the basics. We were in the area for the Burning Foot Festival, so we only spent mornings and evenings at the house. We never had to go to the store to get shampoo, soap, coffee, wood for a fire. It was all provided for us at the carriage house. It was within walking distance to the beach and had an awesome private fire pit and patio. Morning coffee time was spent watching the deer walk by (about 10 feet away). We would definitely go back.

Cute Hillside Cottage

I enjoyed my stay at The Nest. The accommodations were comfortable and attractive. The property’s exterior was professionally landscaped with a mixture of flowers, grasses and other plants. There was a private patio bordered by a natural wood fence, mature trees and a dune. The interior was decorated in a cute style with a balanced use of color. The kitchen had pretty dinnerware and was well stocked with essential tools and cookware. Pere Marquette Beach was a short drive away. The beach area is expansive and provides ample room for enjoying the lovely skyscapes, sand, and Lake Michigan.

Muskegon dunes

Location and property was excellent. A few instructions were unclear and there was an issue with the heating on the first night but the property manager was very responsive, but it just wasn't as prepared for our stay as could have been (appropriate amount of bedding and double checking HVAC operations)

Perfect Little Vacation

The carriage house is perfect for a couple or small family. It was absolutely spotless and although small it had everything we needed! Even though you are in a neighborhood when you are outside by the fire pit it actually feels like you are the only ones around. The location is perfect. We spent the first day at MI Adventure and after short drive made it to the property for the rest of our stay. The beach is maybe a minutes drive away and that’s how we spent most of our time. The last day we took the 30 minute drive to Silver Lake Dunes. Highly recommend this property and we will certainly be back!

Family Vacation Unity Festival

We had a great stay at the Nest. What we liked most was the location and the privacy. You are a steps from Lake Muskegon and a 5 minute walk to Lake Michigan. Glorious sunrises and sunsets steps away from the door. Private location birds eye view of the street below and the natural dunes behind you. Enjoyed the wildlife deer at dusk and dawn, watched the wild turkeys strut along. Ed was communicative and attentive. We borrowed sand toys wake boards for a beach day. I recommend watching the sunrise at the end of the block over Lake Muskegon. It is the easiest way to view natures magical colorful beginning to a new day. The walk out to both red light houses is also not to be missed. I enjoyed the board walk 1.6 mile loop as well. Michigan Adventures is less then 10 miles away. We took advantage of a few games in the unit on a rainy night and made a couple of fires in the private fire pit, perfect for roasting marshmallows with the family. We picked a VRBO for the full kitchen. My husband loves to cook and grill out. The pantry items were a pleasant surprise (coffee, salt, pepper, cream, a few seasonings) plenty of dishes and pots and pans. Beautiful area to visit, not too touristy nary a gift shop to be found. Expansive not crowded soft sandy beach. Highly recommend.
