Perfect place for a quiet and relaxing long weekend. Plenty of things to do at the lake house and lots of option within 1/2 hour drive. The house was set up perfectly and easy to manage with labels on cupboards and light switches. The little details like this are great. Would recommend booking a stay here.

Randy and Cindy, we can’t thank you enough for the great communication prior to our arrival and your thoughtfulness. Your home has such a relaxing vibe - just what we needed. The screened in porch with the gentle breeze made it a perfect place to enjoy the evening. We also had fun playing foosball and would definitely choose to stay again when we’re in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Peterson

Host profile image

Our names are Randy and Cindy Peterson. My husband is retired and I am self-employed. We have 5 kids and 6 grandchildren. We grew up in the Muskegon area and enjoy our peaceful cottage when we can. We love working on projects together and making one of a kind pieces we hope you enjoy our home as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Randy and I chose this cottage because we wanted a small house with a lakefront to enjoy when we retire. This property has unique benefits such as a 3-season room, a screened in porch to enjoy the views of the lake, wonderful neighbors and large deck.

What makes this property unique

Randy and I love staying here in our home! It is very peaceful here and enjoy watching and listening to the wild life that surrounds us. We also love that it has two floors to enjoy.
