Perfect for our weekend in town

We stayed in this beautiful home for the weekend of my nieces wedding. It fit our families needs perfectly, gave us common areas to catch up and enough room to spread out. I loved the labels on the cabinets so we knew right where to find everything. They thought of everything you could possibly need or forget during your stay! Definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Great Group Getaway

This fully stocked house was a perfect summer weekend getaway. We enjoyed the large dining room table, the updated bathrooms and the perfectly decorated bedrooms. We were amazed how the bathrooms and kitchen were fully stocked with every toiletry or kitchen item one might need. The bonfire pit and outdoor seating was a great space for our group. Thank you for a great stay!

Love this house and host

Beautifully decorated and spotless! Brenda anticipated every possible need from toothbrushes to condiments to really good coffee. The beds were very comfortable and all 4 of us (74 year old ladies ) were thrilled with our stay. Two bathrooms made getting ready in the morning easy. Our only disappointment was not being able to use that wonderful firepit - we were too busy. We would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful Host, Wonderful House!

Brenda is by far the hostess with the mostest! She has a stocked kitchen (all you need is food), comfortable beds, games for kids and adults, highchair and portable crib for the baby. This house was decorated so tastefully, and the outside patio/yard was perfect for our family, including the dog! Oh, and it was so clean! Will absolutely be staying here again next year! :)

Fantastic House!!

This house is amazing. It was so clean, the beds were extremely comfortable, the fenced in backyard with patio is very relaxing, and the location is super convenient. The attention to detail at this house is above and beyond. If you forget anything no worries this place was stocked with everything you can think of, right down to some snacks in a bowl on the kitchen counter, It really was so welcoming.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Harris

Host profile image
Hi and welcome to Always Vacation Rentals!

I love having a variety of unique homes to share with my guests. Each home is designed with its own distinct "flavor," making every stay a special experience. My husband and I are passionate about design, and we take great joy in bringing these homes to life—creating spaces that are not only beautiful but also welcoming and comfortable.

It’s a pleasure to share these homes with you, and I hope you enjoy your stay while experiencing the care and pride we put into every detail. Happy vacationing!

Why they chose this property

The moment I saw this home, I knew I had to have it! The style was just so cool, and I could immediately picture all the ways to bring it to life. I’ve put so much love into making it a warm, fun, and inviting space—I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

What makes this property unique

Lincoln 2 is one of the most fun homes I’ve ever had the pleasure of decorating! Originally a kit home purchased from the Sears Catalogue, so much of its original charm remains intact. The moment I saw it, I knew it needed a warm, mid-century flair—something playful and inviting.

Welcome to a home that will make you smile at every turn! This spacious five-bedroom house comfortably sleeps eight and offers plenty of room to spread out. The fully fenced-in yard and great patio area provide the perfect outdoor space, and if you take a seat on the front porch, you’ll even catch a glimpse of Muskegon Lake.

This home is full of fun features—games for the kids, vibrant artwork, and even a retro phone (because who doesn’t love an old-school telephone?). The warm color palette brings so much personality, and the original woodwork adds to the home’s timeless charm.

I hope you enjoy every unique detail and feel right at home in this special space!
