Needs a Deep Clean
The property does not disappoint on view and location. The beach is incredible and very secluded. However, at this price, I expect a little more attention to detail. Views don't make up for feeling grossed out. The cabin needs a deep clean and realistic/practical walk through. ALL of the kitchen pots/pans and most of the utensils needed to be washed before using. For a "chef's kitchen" where things were stored, and what was supplied did not make much sense. With a more remote location, a guest is likely going to be preparing their meals and the "tools" were quite disappointing. Also, the coffee pot did not work and the fridge gave the impression the occupant would be joining us, as it smelled and had condiments and some food left. I would much rather see a clean, empty fridge then use someone's left over ketchup. Lastly, the practical things like a dresser to store a few clothes or kitchen towels were missing. There was no information on things like how the TV works (which it didn't) or check out procedures. I was told to just leave all the bedding and towels as is. Left me feeling like there really is no good cleaning routine. For such a one of a kind property, at a one of a kind price, it was disappointing. Needs a walk through and deep clean. Lastly, there is no mention in the listing that the "private beach" is shared by 3 cabins. I think we gave a young couple a scare as we walked down the steps past their cabin with our family of 5. Love the area, not the place.

Near Perfect Isolation Retreat
This property was exactly what we needed. A beautiful little cabin with a view, a private beach, and a woodland expanse to explore. Other than the host's property being nearby, you get the feeling of isolated tranquility in a natural setting that was the perfect remedy to the gradual wear of the of the hustle and bustle of normal life. If you like retreating into nature, this is your happy place.

Gorgeous views!
I booked this place for the views and the beach access and both were wonderful! The check-in process could have been made more clear (i.e. with the cabin being unlocked/location of key).

Beautiful views and a great beach!
We spent a lovely week in late August, enjoying the spectacular views and the easy-to-access beach. Being right next to the PJ Hoffmaster State Park makes this house super quiet, mostly just the sound of the surf, the birds, and the evening crickets & katydids. Very relaxing.

Beautiful view, lovely property, & kind owners.
Our group of friends had a wonderful time here. We spent a long weekend reconnecting, playing games, and catching up. The beach was breathtaking, and the location next to the state park is perfect for those who enjoy the trails.

Why they chose this property

Muskegon is located on the shores of Lake Michigan. Our cabins are just 2 miles from Maranatha Bible and Missionary Conference Center! We are also home to many state parks, including P.J. Hoffmaster State Park, where you can find 10 miles of hiking trails and a beautiful beach. Take a trip to downtown Muskegon where you will find a variety of breweries and restaurants to enjoy. Muskegon is also the home to The Lakes Mall, which is surrounded by shopping, food and fun! Plan on spending a day with your family at Michigan's Adventure for a day of action and excitement. If you desire a day relaxing in the sun, head to the Muskegon River or the White River where River Rat Rentals and Happy Mohawk Canoe will rent tubes and canoes for your family to calmly float down the river. This property is located in the city of Norton Shores. Lake Michigan is just a short walk from the house. A few miles down the road is Lake Harbor Park, featuring trails, dunes, the big lake, and a channel to Mona Lake, a smaller lake that has a beach of its own. For a day of fun, head to Craig's Cruisers for mini golf, go-karts, arcades, and so much more! All of this is waiting for you to enjoy on your vacation to Muskegon!

A 15 minute drive south will take you to the beautiful city of Grand Haven and all that it has to offer, including the annual US Coast Guard Festival!!

Some highlights in the Muskegon area: -G & L for a Greek cheddar chili dog special – order it with everything
-Try Ryke’s bakery on Terrace St for good old-fashioned baked goods
-The Village Bakery in Spring Lake or their other location - The Baker’s Wife – on Washington in Grand Haven for delicious muffins, breads and other treats.
-Galleries: Uptown and C2C in Grand Haven, and Art Cats in Muskegon.
-Don’t miss the Muskegon Farmers Market. They’re open several days a week, but Saturday is best.
-The Cheese Lady (at the Farmer's Market who also has a storefront downtown Muskegon)
