Great little getaway

Stayed here for a couple of days to spend the weekend fishing for steelhead on the Muskegon River. Accommodations were great; ample space for my husband and I, well stocked, clean and fun decor! Cozy and cute. The fishing was great too! Will definitely return.

Nice setting, cute efficiency!

Perfect for two people who had lots of outdoor plans. We basically slept, showered, and ate breakfast here, but could have spent more time on site relaxing in the gazebo or heading down to the dock. Mini fridge and microwave were perfect for what we needed. Very clean space , with cute decor.

Very nice place with lots of character

Very nice place. Clean and the outside setup was unique with lots of options for fun or relaxing time. Would recommend it to anyone staying in the area. The host was very accommodating and friendly. We drove through the night and weren't arriving until very early in the morning. They had our unit ready with lights and AC on.

What a great property this is. The grounds are well maintained and have nice amenities and beautiful sunset views of the river. Our room was very comfortable and decorated perfectly. Again, all the amenities you could ask for. The hosts have really done a great job to provide everything you could want for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. It is a great value for all you get. We're looking forward to going back.

Beautiful

My husband and I stayed here for a short getaway. The place is very clean and well kept, cozy, and many amenities provided. The host is super kind. We spent most of our time fishing, we caught a ton of perch right off the pier, we also caught northerns, and bass. We used their kayaks, up and down the river, the river is beautiful and full of wildlife.

Cute well kept property right on the river. There is one large room with queen bed, desk, table, and kitchen, and then a second small room with a queen sized bed. The bathroom is accessible from the main room. Property was pristine, and view was gorgeous

Nice place

Very well-appointed and comfortable lodging. Good water access from the high Bluff, but the stairway to the water was steep and long. Not for older people the kitchen needed some attention: there was no spatula for cooking, and the coffee was lace with s’more‘s or caramel, if you’d like that sort of drink. Otherwise, easy to find and check in, and very private, even though there are four units at this location. Charming.

What a Treat!

It is such a cute property and there are many little surprises!! We stayed here for four nights and five days and we actually hated to leave. Our little cabin like room had some luxurious touches along with some novelty touches that just made it seem extra special. Our host Melissa was very responsive and kind. Our cabin was well equipped for anything we needed. We didn't get the chance to partake in any of the outdoor activities that this property offered, but maybe next time. 😉

Such a cute and cozy place with beautiful views of the river.

This place was amazing! Melissa was friendly and VERY helpful. We had quite and adventure with a small kitten climbing in our bumper, but we got him out amd helped reunite him with his family! The view of the river was beautiful. And my husband was able to catch a walleye. This was the perfect spot for a mini vacation and hope to stay here again in the future.
