  We spent our first family vacation in the Bluff House and we all felt very comfortable there. The house had everything needed, included bikes, books and toys for the kids. It was also nice to have a washer and dryer available. It was very nice to feel "at home" but still away. The view from the living room or the front deck is beautiful, especially when a storm is approaching! The owner were very welcoming and resourceful. They live just next door which is nice. When we were not at the marina to watch boats coming and going, we were at lake Michigan which is so close and was not crowded at all. We all enjoyed the backyard where we played with the kids, grilled and made their first "s'mores". We had a day trip to Silver lake sand dunes (beautiful) and to Holland. This was a great location.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children.

  We had a memorable family reunion at Bluff house. The basement has plenty of toys to keep the kids busy. The open glass window in the living room has a spectacular view of marina. Backyard has a gas grill and a good sit out. If you are a early riser, the view from the living room is picturesque. Sun rise right from the living room makes your day. I will be sending a picture to the owner, hope he uploads it to this site. Overall, the house is well equipped and the owner responds to your requests promptly. We liked our stay at the Bluff House.

  the Bluff House is in a fantastic location. The wonderful Pere Marquette beaches are a short walk or drive away. House is bigger than expected. Great view out the front window and great backyard deck and garden. There was a steep climb up to the house from the street. I cant imagine how a car would drive down the driveway with snow and ice on it, but that isn't a problem in the summer. It was built in the 1950's, serves as a vacation house, and doesn't have air conditioning. This resulted in the house being a little musty. It didn't bother me but it did cause my wife's allergies to act up. The house was clean, well stocked with towels, and had a good washer and dryer. Kitchen had everything we need for cooking during our week stay. Owners were very accomodating and friendly. We played mini-golf, saw a movie, went out to some great restaurants, rented a four person bike-cart, visited playgrounds, and went to the beach all within a short drive. Overall, it was great and definitely a bargain.

  Owner response: Thank you for taking the time to write this review for the Bluff House. We have just installed Central Air in the house. This has solved the little mustiness in the air from the surrounding lakes. We listen and respond to our customer and we make sure our customers are happy and enjoying their stay.!!

  We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Our kids caught some nice sized Bass right off the end of the dock at Muskegon Yacht Club. The bike trails were great! They took us right downtown Muskegon. Fricano’s pizza was close. We enjoyed a fire at night with some roasted marshmallows in the back yard. We checked out the beaches which were all only a 5 minute ride away. The waves were a bit big for my kids, but my husband loved it. We ate out a couple of times at Dockers and Muskegon Yacht Club right across the street both had good food! A couple of days we just chilled at the cottage and played games fished and played. The cottage was very clean and comfy. We also walked the Muskegon pier, shopped and did some charter fishing. We did have to contact the owner once with a couple of questions and he called us right back. The owners are very nice and very helpful. We highly recommend this cottage and have already booked 2 weeks again this coming summer.

  We enjoyed our stay so much that we are planning on coming back and have been reccomending this place to our friends and family. Everything you need is here. Lake Michigan beach is wonderful for children at every age. We had two kids and plenty of space. Muskegon lake was so peaceful and my son discovered fishing! Can not wait to return. Lots of things to do around the area too.

  We were looking to get away from our busy urban lives and this was the perfect place. Our family had a great time here. The backyard is beautiful and the view from the living room is breathtaking. This was perfect, we had a marvelous time.

  We are a family of 6 and felt the house offered us all the amenities and comforts of home. The Bluff House is a truly magical place, with a stunning view of the harbor. We will now return to the Netherlands, rested and revitalized from our stay at the Bluff House. We will cherish the memories and recommend it to our friends.
