Golf Trip

We rented the house for a golf trip to the West Side of the state. The place fit our needs perfectly. It was really nice to sit out on the front deck and relax after golfing and enjoying the fantastic views.

Last minute treasure

Wonderful hosts! A tree fell on our original VRBO and they could not have been more accommodating in helping with a last-minute rental for my extended family. I came in from NY with my two teen daughters and my parents. The cottage is welcoming and beachy, up above street level so it has a beautiful lake view and soft breeze from the large deck. It is all VERY clean, and the kitchen and laundry are complete and ready for use. The owners have installed new a/c units in both the living room and front bedroom to help with the warm evening sun. The warmest room is the back bedroom, but my teens were perfectly happy to just run the box fan. There are many places to sleep and all of the beds were well-made and comfortable. We were able to use both beach access points with ease depending which family members were going to the water. The beaches are private to the Association and therefore not very busy! The driveway is steep, but on the days my mom was going to the beach we just drove her down the driveway and used the beach access that has about 20 stairs. There are plenty of games and a smart tv available but, who am I kidding, we were there for the soft sand and Big Lake. Thanks to these Michael and Ivana for creating a beautiful home away from home for my family!

Beautiful setting and wonderful property

We loved our week in Montague. The property has a great location with an easy walk to the beach. The sand is soft and the beach is very clean. The views from the house are amazing. The house was very well kept and clean. A generous amount of towels including beach towels were provided, which we appreciated. Can't wait to be back!

Great stay

Our stay was great. Home is very clean and the deck is expansive. Pictures really do not do it justice! When we walked in the home it sorta took our breath away...it was very bright, clean and open with incredible views from all the windows. Its nestled away and right on Lake Mi. Enjoy beautiful sunsets right from the deck. The beach is just a small walk down the driveway and a few houses away. It is a steep driveway, because you're tuck into a bluff but it isnt a bad walk and it took no time at all to walk there. Also loved that you cam drive right up to the house, as not all the homes there have that option. No stars to hike up which makes it more desirable to me. The house had everything we needed. We were able to log into our own accounts to stream TV shows and movies. Sometimes cell service was spotty. There are some books and games there too. Owner made herself available right away and was very responsive. Loved the location. The town Montague was cute, not a ton of shopping like other beach towns but had things you need and some dining options. Recommend The Book Nook, The soda fountain, Papa's Pizza and Peckadills. Within 30 mins either way gets you to other ideal destinations to visit too: Pentwater, Silver Lake, Muskegon. Would definitely recommend and would look forward to staying again!
