Simply perfect.... :)

We stayed in Wayne and Tina's dune home with our 4 young children.....it was lovely to say the least! The house is newly remodeled and immaculate! Loved that we didn't feel like we were staying in someone else's dirt! :) We cooked our meals at the house most of the week and the kitchen is very well stocked with good basics! The private beach is beyond awesome! We spent the majority of our 7 days doing nothing but digging in the sand and swimming! We maybe saw 10 people walking the beach ALL WEEK! It was so private and peaceful! It did rain a couple mornings so we explored Muskegon. There is plenty of fun things to do but it is not touristy at all which was a BIG plus for us! Wayne & Tina provided us with lots of ideas of things to do! The children LOVED exploring a WW11 Ship and submarine! We got to watch kite surfers one windy day! That was really cool! There are lots of nice clean parks too! Even the public beaches were very clean with only a few people on them. We talked to a man from Grand Rapids who said that he thinks Muskegon has the nicest, cleanest beaches in West Michigan! This was definitely the perfect place for our family....a great place to unwind, relax and enjoy God's creation!
A BIG thank you to Wayne and Tina!

Peaceful Retreat

4 of 5
Submitted: July 23, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We had an outstanding vacation at this dune home. Owners, Tina and Wayne are very hospitable and quite knowlegeable about the area. The home is pristine and peaceful and exactly as described - photos are quite accurate. A very well maintained property in a peaceful neighborhood of dune cottages.

We enjoyed our two week stay with our two daughters and spent most of the time on the beach or on the deck. You don't get very much of a view of the lake due to the heavy foliage, but it's only a short walk through the woods over a small dune or using the private stairs of the owners cottage across the road. The beach is fabulous and quite private and butts up to about many acres of wooded dune beach with no other homes for several hundred yards to the north.

We enjoyed the proximity to Muskegon, yet felt as if far from civilization.Highly recommendd for families and/or retirees. Thanks for a great stay.

Absolutely beautiful!

My fiance and I stayed here for a long weekend, and our only complaint is that we didn't stay longer! The house is gorgeous, the views are breathtaking, and the owners are not only pleasant, but also knowledgeable of the area. The beach is a short walk away and provides picturesque sunsets. We highly recommend staying here.

My family and another family stayed in this cottage and it was a great time. The **private** beach is very close and it is absolutely gorgeous. The furniture is all modern and the kitchen appointed nicely. We had a great time and hated leaving.

This is a great place to relax. There are woods around you and the lake in front. The best of both worlds. The house is really clean and comfortable. We had breakfast out on the deck every morning. The sunrise over the lake is incredible. Wayne and Tina were very helpful, providing several brochures to local attractions and pointing us to some great restaurants.
