Walk to Beach: Lake Michigan Getaway!

Reviews

• Look no further! Best rental we've had!

  5/5

  This is by far the best-kept home we've ever rented! We had everything we needed, all the appliances and water fixtures were fairly new and working great. Our group had two families, with two kids each (aged 3-6). These kids were so spoiled - that basement is chock full of toys, books, board games. The backyard is fully fenced in so we could turn them loose without worrying, and they had toys set out for the outdoors too. More important than the house itself, the owner Nicole checked in often, and the property manager Lisa has worked hard to keep this home fully stocked - so many towels! Now, the house does not have central air. They had one window AC unit in the living room window, and each room had multiple fans keeping the air moving. The basement was dry and comfortable too. We were fine - but the weather was around 80 deg F. Any hotter weather might get uncomfortable. We could have walked to the beach, it's a 10 minute walk, but we decided to drive because of all the stuff we brought. Parking was 10 per day. New in 2025 is a free beach shuttle that takes you farther down the shore to more points of interest like the lighthouses and submarine. Guys, don't miss your chance to stay at this perfect little spot in a quiet neighborhood minutes from all the fun!

  Thank you so much for your detailed review! We hope to have you back again soon! I’m working on a solution for the A/C hopefully before next summer.

• The best vacation rental ever!

  5/5

  My family and I had the best stay at Nicole’s place! Caretaker Lisa was amazing and helpful as well! The location was great, the house was beautiful and cozy and clean, everything was spotless and well-stocked—it was truly the best experience my family has ever had in a vacation rental! We will absolutely be back to this lovely place! THANK YOU!

• Perfect home for friends and family.

  5/5

  We visited this home with some friends and their children for a three night stay in late June. We've been to Muskegon in the past and always find the owners and caretakers take pride in their homes, and that was no different with this home. The home is decorated and furnished with anything and everything you could think of, was clean and comfortable for nine (!) guests, and is only a short distance from our favorite place in Muskegon (the beach, of course). We couldn't be happier with the quality of the home, the location, the amenities, and the owners friendliness and communication. We even left a couple of stuffed animals behind and the owner offered to ship them back to us, which is super kind. Of all the places we've stayed in Muskegon, this may be our favorite place so far. Highly recommend!

• Pleasant Stay in Port City

  5/5

  Great location--Muskegon Lake boat launch is a block away; Lake Michigan city beach only a few blocks away. The house is very clean and well equipped. Having only one shower might be a challenge for a large group. All other features of the property are quite nice. I communicated directly with owner, who reached out on day 2 to check if our visit was going well. Our group was gathered for an event at Muskegon Yacht Club, which is very close.

• Family getaway

  5/5

  The house was wonderful and perfect for our family vacation! It’s conveniently located near the beach and downtown. The owner, Nicole and the property manager, Lisa were both great with communication throughout our stay even going above and beyond what we expected. The house was very clean, the basement was perfect for our kids to hangout in on those rainy days and the yard was a great size for yard games and nights around the fire pit.
