About this property

Waterfront Home On Muskegon Channel

This home is uniquely situated on the inlet off the Muskegon Channel with direct waterfront access into Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan. It has been updated over the years features 1200sq ft, two bedrooms, one full bathroom and all the amenities of home including; wireless internet, Netflix, AC, dishwasher, washer/dryer, fire pit, & weber grill. There's over 75' of docking to tie up your boat(s), launch kayaks or paddleboards and enjoy all the watersports. Fishing from the dock is great fun for kids, you'll catch a variety of fish. Boating, biking or walking are the best ways to enjoy this area, along the lakes, dunes, channel and piers.

Beautiful Pere Marquette and Harbortowne beaches are only a short walk or head out to find your own secluded beach easily accessible by boat, swim, hike dunes and enjoy beach fun. It's truly a great area for walks, runs, bike rides, sunsets and stars. Ships and boats making their way through the channel allows you to see it all from right there.

Silversides Submarine and Naval Museum along with a couple parks and play structures are close by in the neighborhood.

Dockers and The Deck resturants are walking distance, with great food and live music on the weekends all summer long.

My home is located in a mostly private neighborhood so being respectful and well minded is appreciated.

Thanks for viewing!

This is the one!
Such a perfect little cottage on the inlet! The space was great and fit our family of five no problem. The room with bunk was perfect for kids, there were even some games and books for them to get in to. The main room had plenty of closet space and was very nice. The rest of the house was very spacious and kitchen had everything you could need. The outdoor space was amazing. There is a small dock with patio and chairs that is awesome to sit out on and watch the boats come in. We hope to visit again!

The grill required charcoal. It would have been better to know in advance but required an extra trip to store for purchase. Minor inconvenience All else nearly perfect We would return

Peaceful house on the channel
This is the second summer that my family has stayed here. The space works great for my family of 5. We enjoyed fishing right off the back dock, the easy walk to the channel, and being minutes away from Pere Marquette. We hope to be back again in the future!

Lake fun!
We loved our time in Muskegon! The house was perfect for our small family. The location made it easy to walk to the beach, a few restaurants, and other attractions. We especially loved eating breakfast on the dock and watching boats and wildlife go by. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you!!

Five-star location!
Cozy, immaculately clean, nicely decorated, one-story in a quiet neighborhood. Beautiful property. Great location within walking distance to two beautiful beaches. We had one beach all to ourselves for two sunny days! This was our second stay at this property. We certainly plan to return.

Channel view and beach walks
The house is exactly as described and pictured. It was very clean. We enjoyed watching the boats go through the channel and evening walks along the beach. It was just a few minutes from downtown Muskegon. Our only wish was that the back room, with the beautiful view, had comfortable seating that allowed for a relaxing evening enjoying the scenery when it was a bit windy to sit outside.

Family vacation
Great location. You can sit out back and watch the boats as they pass by. Bring your yard games and eat and play outside. We had fun. Everything we needed was there. If you plan to use the pullout sofa be aware there are no blinds or curtains so you’ll get to get up early and make the coffee for everyone else

Great Place to Stay and Fish
Beachwood-Bluffton is a great place to stay and fish Lake Michigan especially if you’re bringing your own boat. Convenient dock at the rear of the place with quick access to the channel that heads out to Lake Michigan. Marina with launch directly across the street and a couple good restaurants nearby. Also close to the beach!
