About this cottage rental

Our classic cottage-style home provides for a vacation of comfort and relaxation. The 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is located in Norton Shores between Muskegon and Grand Haven and surrounded by the breathtaking Lake Michigan.

If you have yet to visit Lake Michigan, prepare to be amazed! The unparalleled views abound and can be admired from almost every room in the house! Our home offers a spacious floor plan, high ceilings, and a plethora of windows making your stay airy and comfortable. Whether you are visiting town on business or pleasure, the location of the home feels private yet close to any desired amenities. The home is located only a few miles from a grocery store, airport, shopping, dining, bars, and much more!

Muskegon is known for fishing, sailing regattas, pleasure boating, and more! Whatever your forte, there is truly something for everyone! If you are in need of recommendations on our favorite activities in town, please feel free to reach out with any questions as we would love to assist in making your trip grand.

During your stay, you will have full access to your own private beach. There are 89 steps down to the beach, but the walk down features a few landings with benches and a fire pit. We highly recommend bringing your favorite drink and some s'mores down to the fire pit to watch the sunset over the lake!

Both the living room and kitchen offer plenty of seating for a large group to cook and socialize. The kitchen is fully stocked with any necessity you may need. If you are bringing children, the 2 sets of bunk beds are always a hit and there is also extra sleeping space on a sleeper sofa. We can accommodate 4 cars along with ample parking alongside the house and in front of the house.

REVIEWS
"My friends and I had the most amazing time here! From having private beach access, the most incredible view, and just the right amount of space for our large group! I just hope we could come back again! This place can make anyone fall in love with the outdoors."
Ana G.

"The house was amazing, it accommodated 4 families perfectly. All of the furniture and appliances were in good condition, the layout of the house is really neat, it seemed bigger in person than it did in the pictures. The huge deck had plenty of lounge chairs and a great view of lake Michigan. The beach area in front of the house was pretty much private(when we were there at least), we had the beach to ourselves.. The management company in charge of the property did a good job of communicating leading up to check-in with instructions, wi-fi passwords, door lock keycodes, check-out instructions. Great location, short drives to Downtown Muskegon and Michigan Adventures. All in all a great Michigan vacation."

Location was amazing. Beautiful deck and beach. Lots of space for our family of 11. The parking was tight. We had three large vehicles.

It was a wonderful stay for 12 total people. There were 3 families and we each had our own space. Both the kids and adults enjoyed it. It was clean and we cooked in the kitchen, grilled outside, played games, and just relaxed. Our favorite part of course was the view and direct access to the private beach. It definitely gave us a workout on those steps walking back up, but well worth it!

We rented the house to accommodate family and friends gathering for a memorial service. The bedrooms were spacious, and the entire house was clean and well-equipped with everything from blankets to beach towels. There were ample spaces to be together or septate. The expansive deck boasted an unbeatable view, and we were even visited by a pair of bald eagles on two separate days. It was perfect.

Many things need fixing. Maybe they will work on it this winter.

Beautiful and dramatic - well kept. Everything worked out fine for all of us. We had some insects getting in around one of the door frames and the management company sent out pest control to spray. We had no hot water the last day we were there, not sure why.

The house had a great layout and the sleeping arrangements were the best we’ve had renting homes over the past 7 years for our group. The view was as amazing. And the access to the beach was safely navigable. My only recommendation would be to put some more attention on the grounds. Since most of our time was spent outside it was easy to critique. Just needed some upkeep….weeds and lots of pruning and trimming.
