Exactly What We Needed

We had a wonderful time at this cabin! It was exactly as described—peaceful, relaxing, and the perfect escape. The setting was incredibly quiet, with a beautiful view of the river that we enjoyed every day. Our dogs had an amazing time too, which made the trip even better. Everything was comfortable and just what we were hoping for. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy nature!

Graduation trip

Our son graduated form MCO. He had to be on campus for the week prior. We chose to get the cabin so his father and I could have some family down-time before the ceremony. It was a perfect choice! very quiet and relaxing. Perfect for 3 adults. The view of the river is exceptional.

Wonderful View of the Muskegon River

Delightful secluded cabin with all that you need for your stay and check in and check out was seamless and host very friendly and responsive. Beautiful view of the Muskegon River. Locals were friendly, close to Big Rapids for a run in to a restaurant if that's what you want to do.
