We spent a quiet five days by the lake in this tastefully decorated home. The amenities and decor are similar to a four star hotel. The second floor BR faces the lake, as does the living, dining room, and deck. Very pleasant, soothing view of placid water and wildlife. Those are real bald eagles swooping down to catch fish.
The neighborhood is quiet as well, except for the traffic noise from HWY 31 a few blocks away. But by nine p.m. this disappears -- apparently they roll up the sidewalks in Muskegon at night.
There is a tiny beach which we used as a sand trap for sprited games of croquet and for golf practice. But there is a much larger public beach across the lake which we canoed over to. The hiking trails at a nearby state park are very nice and there are multiple places to play golf.
We only used one BR, but the bed was very comfortable and firm. There were ample supplies of towels for the two of us, but if you bring a small group you may need more.
The owners were very pro-active, calling to make sure that everything was going well and answering questions/making suggestions about the area. They were nice enough to let us bring our cats, who had a very good time as well.
Mona Lake would be perfect for sailing and/or water skiing if you brought your own boat. There is a boat launch area about a block away from the house.
Owner's Response: Thanks for the feedback. We're glad you enjoyed it like we do. We have purchased some more towels to augment our stock. Looking forward to seeing you again.
