About this property

GORGEOUS LAKE MICHIGAN VIEWS AND BEACH

Every room on the main floor has stunning Lake Michigan Views! This idyllic area allows you to enjoy beach life at Lake Michigan and nightly sunsets in this comfortable, spacious and newly updated home. This dream vacation spot awaits and is nestled in the Lost Valley community, located in Montague.

Whether you are seeking a peaceful and relaxing vacation, or something more active, this area has it all. The expansive low bluff beach (with access) is located right across the street. There are two other beach access points as well , where you can enjoy the beach, sand and the waves crashing on the pristine shoreline. The landscape of the Great Lake changes daily, to calm serene waters, to large waves and everything in between. If you enjoy walking on the beach, you can walk for miles. If you love sunsets, they are spectacular!

This clean and freshly sanitized home has plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces to gather as a group, or places for solitude and recharging. The outdoor deck (with motorized shade awnings) can seat a large group comfortably with new and comfortable chairs and outdoor adjustable dining table. The beds are new and comfortable, as are most of the furnishings. We also provide beach towels, sand toys, boogie boards, sand wagon, chaise and beach chairs for your beach experience as well.

The beach is connected to Meinert Park and Flowers Creek Dune Nature Preserve. You can stroll on the shoreline, hike the wooded trails, or splash in Flower Creek.

There are many year round activities nearby (in addition to the beach) for every season. Double JJ Ranch, Michigan Adventures, Happy Mohawk Livery, Golf Course, Disk Golf, horseback riding, fishing off the pier at White Lake channel nearby and much more.

Gorgeous fall weekend
My girlfriends and I loved our long weekend getaway at this beautiful lake house. The house was super clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen. The gathering spaces inside and out were wonderful, and beds were comfy. Views from the house are amazing and we had a great time walking on the beach and in the neighborhood. We all want to come again!

A hidden gem
You know when you’re reading a really good book and you never want it to end? This vacation was our book♥️ My mother, sister and our children thoroughly enjoyed every second spent together in this beach cottage. It felt so cozy, just like home. Amy made sure we had everything we needed and communication with her was a breeze. The private beach access is literally steps away across the street from the house. The beach is so beautiful and so private! Not at all packed like Florida beaches and such. Everyone in the small subdivision was so friendly. We enjoyed our walks and bike rides looking at all of the beautiful homes, watching the sunrise and sunset each morning and evening is a must as well! Watching at the beach is magical but enjoying it right on the deck while sipping your coffee is just as magical:) I kept telling my sister, it’s like it’s from a book! The beach cottage, little subdivision, the privacy, the friendliness, and most importantly the beautiful beach! We were not ready to leave and can’t wait to return. Thanks Amy for such a wonderful week!

Perfect getaway!
This property exceeded our expectations in every way! We truly felt like we were staying in a friend's home, which is not as common in rentals these days. From the amazing decor to the cleanliness to the thoughtful touches throughout, there was a great feeling throughout the space. We appreciated the multiple locations for folks to spread out as well as enough space to congregate together at night. We had morning coffee on the deck and evening walks along the beach, with plenty of fun activities throughout the Muskegon area and western Michigan in general. Comfortable mattresses, plenty of kitchenware, fun beach toys, and books/games definitely helped make our week a success. Our hosts were in touch with us in the time leading up to our trip, and they had a very helpful binder of great info for us while we were there. Such a hidden gem, tucked between fields, forests, and the lake. Will definitely try to stay again!

Lake Michigan! Is there anything better than Lake Michigan! It is so beautiful and love how every day it looks different.. powerful waves one day, calm and serene the next. This ever changing Great Lake shows its beauty daily.
