Just outside your door a nature trail leads to a secluded bench for watching another gorgeous sunset over Pere Marquette Beach on Lake Michigan. A short walk in the early morning along Edgewater St. affords you with a beautiful sunrise over Muskegon Lake. A few yards from your door is a bike trail that is part of the Shoreline Trail System. Walk to sailing regattas or volleyball courts hosting league play and tournaments. Stroll over to lunch at C J's On The Beach with a top-notch view of Muskegon's harbor entrance. Just as close is Dockers Fish House & Lounge facing over Harbour Towne Yacht Basin. Hours could be spent watching the boat traffic going through the channel between Lake Michigan & Muskegon Lake. While there, a visit to the World War II submarine, Silversides, gives a peek in to our nation's naval history. Plenty of other playgrounds along the lake to enjoy after trying out all the ones by Plum Hollow. Your stay will be a memory you will cherish forever.

Great property, Great owners - Thanks!

Review Submitted: July 8, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
Stan and Annie were greats hosts, their property was in great shape, very clean, and just like being at home (stocked kitchen with all utensils, fully operational). We had two families, both with young children, and this was a great location for us. A quick 1-2 block walk to the beach, quiet area for relaxing outside around the fire at night - it couldn't have been better. There are a lot of nice touches in the house, like their book collection and bits of local history and information scattered about. We would definitely come back and also recommend the property to others.

A concern we initially had when booking the property was going over the middle of the summer with an infant since the cabin has 2 window Air Conditioners in the kitchen and living room, but not in the rooms. This was not an issue at all. The place stayed cool, there was plenty of shade from the large trees around the house, and the ACs filled the house well.

A great time had by all! Highly recommended.

July 2010 Lake Michigan

Review Submitted: February 22, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2010
We stayed at “Plum Hollow” July 2010 for about 2 weeks. From “Plum Hollow” we made sightseeing tours throughout the Muskegon surrounding places of interest. The house is situated very quietly at walking distance from Lake Michigan beach. Being in the house we expected any moment Fonzie (happy days) to stay in the door opening. Even though the house was a little bit older, everything was working fine and we felt at home immediately. Stan and Annie were very friendly and made us feel special guests, but I’m sure everybody is treated the same friendly way. I made a bicycle tour with Stan around Muskegon Lake – kind of a private tour – and Stan explained me some of Muskegon “City”. As I am from the Netherlands the chance of being there for a second time is very small, but if I am, I certainly will try to visit Stan and Annie.
We were overwhelmed with loads of information about Muskegon, Michigan and places we planned to visit during our “Great Lakes tour” all sent by Stan. (Even for the part of our tour in Canada!)
If I ever was in Muskegon for business and had to choose between the Local “Holiday inn” and “Plum Hollow” I would choose for the last one.
Stan and Annie thank you very much for everything! (Apologize for the late review).

Like Staying with Family

Review Submitted: October 9, 2010 Date of Stay: October 2010
Staying at this house was like staying with family. When we arrived, there was a basket of muffins and a bowl of fresh peaches waiting for us, each with a note welcoming us. There were also fresh flowers in every room. The property is very very clean and neat. The location is great, less than a five minute walk from the beach. Stan and Annie were wonderful, they even called to make sure that we arrived safely (we arrived very late in the evening) and that we didn't need anything. This is the place to stay if you are looking for a very clean house where you will feel right at home!!

A Great British Getaway

Review Submitted: September 16, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
We took a bit of a risk booking a summer vacation on the edge of Lake Michigan, not knowing anything about the area beforehand - and not being somewhere that most British people would even think about. We did a week in Chicago and a week at Plum Hollow, and were lucky to have sunshine pretty much the whole time.

Plum Hollow made the perfect contrast to our Chicago hotels. We booked it partly because of the excellent reviews on this site, and they are all true. We were greeted with a basket of fresh muffins and a bowl of locally grown peaches, and were delighted by how clean and spacious the house was. It was much better equipped than most UK self catering properties, and regular visits from Stan meant we had all the maps, tips and help we could possibly need.

Stan and Annie are the kind of hosts who 'go the extra mile', posting a whole box of tourist information to us in the UK when we first booked at their own expense. The lovely little garden with - for us - an exotic range of birds and black squirrels was a bonus.

We would happily book again, if there wasn't so much more of the USA still to explore...

Great Place, Great Beach, Great Owners!

Review Submitted: August 24, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
We had a short, but wonderful stay at Plum Hollow. The place was VERY clean and had everything you could possibly need. The location is also great - very quiet, but only a five minute walk to the gorgeous Lake Michigan beach. The hospitality that we received from Stan & Annie was exceptional - by far the best experience we have had through the years in renting a home from owners. We look forward to coming back and spending more time at Plum Hollow.
