Calm Getaway

Renting the pontoon boat is highly recommended! There are not many restaurants in the area, so if you want to stay in the neighborhood, we recommend bringing groceries. The place is small and cozy. Helpful owners live next door.

Great place!

Very nice open home. A lot of family lives nearby, we hosted a couple of small gatherings, adults only. There was plenty of space and the openness of the house made for fun conversations. Kitchen was well-equipped. Bedroom and bathroom were also great, clean and large just two of us stayed overnight. We really could not have asked for a better place close to Muskegon.

Everything was amazing

We loved everything about our stay at Twin Lake. The house was perfect for our family of 4. The beds were comfortable and our eldest chose to sleep on the comfy couch instead of a bed. We had everything we needed to cook meals. The two living spaces were nice for our 12 and 20 year olds to chill alone if they wanted. The lake was wonderful. We rented the boat which we used daily. We caught a variety of fish from the dock and the boat. We swam in the lake which is clean, warm, and very clear. We took the boat out each evening to watch the sunset which was beautiful. You could also watch it from the beach. We loved the area in general. Within a few minutes you can get the basics. Within 20 minutes you could get anything you needed.

Great Lake House

It was just my husband and I for this trip but it works for kids as well. It's a wonderful little two-bedroom lake house with access to private beach area and boat dock. There are paddle boats and kayaks you can use while staying here. It was a wonderful little getaway.
