Weekend get away

This house was a perfect place for my girlfriend and I to stay for the weekend. We wanted to check out the local parks and see what else Muskegon had to offer but also wanted a nice place to be able to rest and relax. The house was in the perfect spot, about 5-10 minutes from everything, and had great amenities including a huge hot tub! Definitely recommend staying here on your trip!

Relaxing Family Weekend

Wonderful house in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance from the beach and a park. Well stocked kitchen for cooking at home, comfortable beds, spacious backyard with fire pit and hot tub. This is a great choice for families with older kids or groups for relaxing and hanging out. Easy location to both beaches and downtown activities. Would definitely recommend.

Great Home Stay

We enjoyed a wonderful week at this Beachwood home. We hit the beach everyday and the air-conditioning was refreshing to come home to. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessary pots and pans needed to cook several meals. The hot tub was very relaxing. We played pool in the basement and crocket and cornhole outside. All in all, a great week! We will be back!

Beach Getaway

What a gem to find so close to Pere Marquette Beach. Joshua was responsive in messages to easily access the house. When we arrived we had a clean, quaint, and comfortable house to stay in. We had a short walk to a beautiful clean beach where the sunset was gorgeous, and then enjoyed the rest of the evening lounging in the hot tub. The backyard was perfect for a bonfire the next night after another sunset! Highly recommend this stay!

What to expect

Great communication. Extremely thorough rules provided. My advice is to stay cautious and take pics for your reviews! It will be worth it! And the view once you make it to a bed of water is glorious. Worth a try!

This was a great place to stay

Josh is a great host. The house is so close to the beach you could walk. The house is very clean. We had great family time and laughing time in the hot tub. We had a deer in the backyard one night. It was so cool to watch him eat bird seed out of the feeder! I cooked breakfast every morning and dinner one night. The kitchen was very clean and had pots and pans to work with. One night we went to Downtown for dinner. It's only about 15 min away. I would stay here again. This place is close to everything.

About the host

Hosted by Josh Stehouwer

Host profile image
I am an outdoor enthusiast! My passions are all things extreme sports (especially water-sports) and relaxing in this beachy community. I want to open my home to allow others to experience this amazing place! Where am I going? I will be living on my sailboat which during the summer is kept just down the road!

What makes this property unique

Minutes walk to the beach, private back yard and hot tub with abundant wildlife and views of the Muskegon Country Club. In the morning Catch the sunrise in the back yard with the wildlife and a coffee in hand, in the evening grab a brew and walk to the beach to Catch the sunset! It is truly hard to beat this location!
