Great property and location!

We had a great stay in the bungalow. We were in town for a wedding and the location of the bungalow was close to all of the festivities. The host was very communicative and made sure our stay was going well. Very well maintained property.

We spent several days here with small children. The property was very charming, and even nicer in person. The kitchen, fire pit area, and party barn had all the supplies we needed, and those we didn’t know we needed (haha). Host Kathy was very attentive and texted periodically to check on us. Would 100% recommend.

The bungalow was very modern and had all the amenities we needed. The hosts were great. The place was very clean, a convenient walk to the beach and great launch pad for hiking the state parks. We will be back for a summer visit.

We appreciated Kathy & Tom’s beautiful home and the peace and tranquillity that it brings. Nice space for two adults with two seperate and comfortable bathrooms and bedrooms. Kitchen was nicely updated and hosts provided snacks and water for our arrival. Very short walk to Pere Marquette Beach to enjoy sunsets and sand. Looking forward to coming back and enjoying the home in the summer!

We had a wonderful time at the Beach Bungalow with our family! The host was very communicative, helpful, and was even willing to go above and beyond to mail us our son's beloved stuffed animal that was accidentally left behind. The house is within walking distance from the beach as promised and is in a quiet, friendly neighborhood. It was a great week at a great location!

My sister and I spent a long weekend in the area. First time here. Loved the walks by the beach, everywhere we ate was excellent. Loved Toast and Jams for breakfast, The Deck was great food and service. Will probably return sometime in the fall to see all the colors in the trees. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Bluffton
The place is a wonderful gem. It was decorated perfectly! The house is functional and just the right size. It is great place that we wouldn’t hesitate to stay at again!!
Things to keep in mind though is one bedroom is right off the other. There is a door, but no hallway in between. The larger (master) has a beautiful ceiling . The room is spacious and tucked away to some extent, but there is no door to obtain total privacy. If you travel with a group, just things to keep in mind as you make sleeping arrangements.

Absolutely Perfect❣️
When returning to Muskegon for a visit, my husband, also raised on Lake Michigan, and I try to get as close to it as possible. This cottage is lovingly cared for and away from the chaos yet close enough to walk to Pier Marquette. Very highly recommended😊

Beach Bungalow
Loved the house and location. Nice to be close to the beach but not on it. We took advantage of the great bike trails, Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan.

WOW - Just Perfect!
We recently enjoyed seven days in the beautiful Beach Bungalow. Kathy, and her family, have created a perfect lake retreat, and it is easy to see their dedication to guest comfort, and experience, in their recent kitchen remodel. Our stay was completely perfect, and rain free. Thanks Kathy for working out the weather for us! This Beach Bungalow is located just steps from Lake Michigan, where we enjoyed six nights of great sunsets. As for the property, the first word would be WOW. The outside is well maintained, and landscaped nicely. Inside, the Bungalow seems warm, safe, and easy to feel comfortable in. We stocked the fridge up and made use of the fabulous new kitchen area - cooking many great meals and just relaxing. In the Bungalow everything was there, convenient, and clean. It’s just nice to see owners caring so much about the little things. On the way to the property we stopped and picked up firewood. As we carried it around behind the Bungalow we had to pause and laugh. There was already a nice stack of wood, and kindling, for our use. There were even lighters available in the kitchen – just perfect. Throughout the week there were many more smiles as we discovered more about the wonderful house and property. This trip meant a lot to us as we had just experienced a family loss, and Kathy was understanding, and respectful, of our need for solitude and a time to re-center. She reached out to us once during the trip to check on things, but was always a text, or call, away if we needed her. Just a great property, and a better host and host family. Kathy, we truly appreciate your families’ efforts on this property and allowing us to share within it for a few days. I hope future guest will respect the dedication your family has, and all the hard work that has went into making the Beach Bungalow what it is today, while helping to preserve its integrity for all of us to enjoy down the road. We now have a new lake house and will be back soon!

Get away weekend in a lovely cottage
Great communication with the owner. Cottage was as described in listing. Short walking distance to a beautiful Lake Michigan beach Well stocked home. A separate locked utility shed with beach toys. We locked our bikes in at night after riding some beautiful trails. This was our first time using VRBO and we were very pleased!

A Great Find
Four of us rented this lovely bungalow while attending our 46th class reunion. It fit our needs absolutely perfectly — from the location, to the perfect set-up and thoughtful amenities, to the attentiveness of the owner.

Cozy Bungalow & walking distance to the beach
This house is incredible. Such a cute and cozy beach bungalow. We loved the interior layout and decor, the outdoor patio, the landscaping, and especially the very short walk to the beach. We’d absolutely stay at this house again when we visit Muskegon again sometime. The owner was super great, too - she reached out a few times to make sure we had what we needed and to see if we had any questions.

Just as Wonderful the 2nd Time
Kathy is an amazing hostess. She is so attentive and welcoming. She has created a wonderful place for families to enjoy their vacation and create memories. The bungalow is perfectly situated in the Beachwood-Bluffton neighborhood. We stayed 4 years ago and our stay this time was equally amazing. There is plenty of space with the addition of another bedroom, full bath and main floor laundry. The rest of the home feels larger than it is. I loved spending time outside--the yard is great for morning coffee and evening fires in the firepit. Overall it's clean, safe and welcoming. Thank you Kathy!

Nice lake rental
The location was great and so was the house. The only concern was that the bedroom with the master bed didn’t have a door on it. It was around the corner from the main living area so it wasn’t too much on an issue but it was a little odd.

Beach and trails
The beach bungalow is in a nice little neighborhood. My wife and I planned on biking and the house connects with trails and is a very short walk from the beach. I had one question about something I overlooked and the owner quickly answered. I would be glad to stay again and recommend it.

Winter Time Review
This is my second review ! We had a great time in this very pleasant bungalow close to the beach and downtown. Very, very clean with stylish décor and lovely new bathroom and bedroom. Sunny and bright interior with everything available for a great visit. It was winter and snowy when we stayed but the place was very cozy and warm. We enjoyed entertaining our family , going for fun walks near the beach and had many board games around the dining table. Kathy was welcoming and her husband even did some shoveling one morning. All in all..just a fabulous place. Thank you.

Fabulous and Relaxing...
Fortunately, we were able to benefit from a last minute cancellation and were able stay in this lovely house. The house is close to the beach and easy to find. Access to the house was easy peasy. Kathy is very accessible. The house is very spacious. You could easily setup air mattresses and have room for more in the living areas of the house. The new addition is very comfortable and roomy. The 2nd bathroom is large. The whole house is very light filled and decorated very nicely...a lovely little beach house. The beds are comfortable, but firm. The house has everything you need from beach accessories to gas grill. The homeowners really have made an effort to see to all your comforts and needs. We found their book of suggestions very useful in making plans for dining and site seeing. Don't hesitate to book this house for your next vacation!!

Perfect cottage near our favorite West Michigan beach
This was our second time staying at the Beach Bungalow. Thanks to the new addition to the house (a second bedroom, second bathroom, and main floor laundry room), this stay was even better than the first! We are a family of four and were very comfortable here for a week. The house is spotless and is decorated very nicely. The neighborhood is quiet and safe (at the end of the road), but still within walking distance of Pere Marquette beach. We spent lots of time at the beach during this visit, and used the provided beach items (chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, small cooler). Knowing that these items were provided made the job of packing much easier. The beach itself is very nice. Other beaches on Lake Michigan have disappeared thanks to the high water levels this year, but the Pere Marquette beach still has a very wide area of sand and does not feel crowded. Thanks for a great week!

Very clean and comfortable
Really nice place with a very nice yard in a quiet neighborhood and only about a block to the beach. Kathy texts from time time to make sure everything is satisfactory. Just about anything we needed for the beach was provided. A great place for a small family

Beautiful piece of property with all necessary amenities for a great vacation.
This house is quaint and just perfect for a small family of four. The various seating areas outside offered a nice getaway. While the house is pretty close to the lake, we thought it was actually closer. A previous review had read that it was a “one-minute walk to the beach”...I would say it’s closer to ten minutes, and definitely not a walk to take with small kids. Great communication with and attentiveness from the owners. You can tell they are passionate about the home.

Awesome weekend!
We came up for the long weekend and had the best time. The cottage was wonderful, everything we needed and more! Kathy had left us information on upcoming activities in the area, along with a book of sites and interest in Muskegon and Michigan. Even though we were not right on the beach, it was close enough to walk to several times a day and without all the sand tracking in. We will definitely come back and stay!

Clean, well stocked, everything they said.
We wanted a cozy getaway for our second honeymoon. That's exactly what were got. It was very clean, everything we needed to do or own cooking (except the food🙂), plenty of towels, etc. Location was convenient to Lake Michigan, places in Muskegon and Grand Haven. Enjoyed our stay.

A wonderful birthday
This beach bungalow is tastefully decorated and immaculately clean. As promised, it is a one minute walk to the beach. We had appetizers and wine at one outdoor table, then dined al fresco at another. The kitchen is nicely equipped with everything one needs to prepare a delicious meal. The owners are very accommodating and were available via text messaging instantly. I would highly recommend this charming cottage.
