Such a cute and cozy place with beautiful views of the river. We enjoyed mountain biking, fishing, hiking, and kayaking during the day and loved relaxing on the outdoor swing and by the firepit at night. Melissa was so friendly and welcoming. This peaceful resort has all the right ingredients for a memorable getaway.

Stayed here for a couple of days to spend the weekend fishing for steelhead on the Muskegon River. Accommodations were great; ample space for my husband and I, well stocked, clean and fun decor! Cozy and cute. The fishing was great too! Will definitely return.

This place was amazing! Melissa was friendly and VERY helpful. We had quite and adventure with a small kitten climbing in our bumper, but we got him out amd helped reunite him with his family! The view of the river was beautiful. And my husband was able to catch a walleye. This was the perfect spot for a mini vacation and hope to stay here again in the future.

Nice setting, cute efficiency!

Perfect for two people who had lots of outdoor plans. We basically slept, showered, and ate breakfast here, but could have spent more time on site relaxing in the gazebo or heading down to the dock. Mini fridge and microwave were perfect for what we needed. Very clean space , with cute decor.

Hidden Gem

Almost a fairy tale setting, this hidden gem is perfect for a peaceful getaway. The property is on the water and has a beautiful, calming landscape. We enjoyed sunsets from the dock and the swing--so relaxing. The room was super comfy and met all our needs for a two-day stay. Melissa and Remy (the canine greeter) were the perfect hosts!

Relaxing

We used the rental as a home base during our trip, making day excursions to Michigan's Adventure, Fishing, hiking the Dragon Trail, and riding dune buggies at Silver Lake. But we also spent a lot of time at home base, and enjoyed the property! Our host was great and extremely responsive too .

Beautiful

My husband and I stayed here for a short getaway. The place is very clean and well kept, cozy, and many amenities provided. The host is super kind. We spent most of our time fishing, we caught a ton of perch right off the pier, we also caught northerns, and bass. We used their kayaks, up and down the river, the river is beautiful and full of wildlife.

Very nice place with lots of character

Very nice place. Clean and the outside setup was unique with lots of options for fun or relaxing time. Would recommend it to anyone staying in the area. The host was very accommodating and friendly. We drove through the night and weren't arriving until very early in the morning. They had our unit ready with lights and AC on.
