Photos and Description of the Montague vacation house rental
3 Full Master Suites, (1 on each floor) 3 Guest Bedrooms, 4-1/2 Baths. Sleeps 13

Come and be our guests in this exquisite home for the vacation of a lifetime! Once here, you will quickly understand that this place was never meant to be rented and has the deliberate feel of a cozy family retreat. Our 4,000 sq.ft. beach house is nestled on a wooded dune with 100' of secluded sandy Lake Michigan beach (private). Enjoy relaxing, socializing or private time on the the oversized, wrap around front porch and watch the sunset. This will probably be the place that you spend the most time. There are 3 Master Suites, 1 on each floor for maximum privacy. Each has it's own full bathroom. There are also three additional bedrooms with a shared bath for more guests. Main floor has an open, well stocked, gormet kitchen, a dining and living room with gas fireplace. The lower level has a brand new (2012) Media/Game Room with a large flat screen tv, Professional ping pong table and a Golden Tee Video game. Walk across a ravine by foot bridge on the property, go down 75 steps and you are on beautiful Lake Michigan. An outdoor shower is on the beach with a deck & many chairs.

The western Michigan town of Montague -- which shares the shores of White Lake and Lake Michigan with the Whitehall township -- offers plenty of outdoor tourist attractions; these include numerous lakeside beaches and parks. Montague traces its history to 1812, and hosts a selection of cultural artifacts and oddities. Travelers might visit numerous additional attractions in Whitehall, about a mile away.

Those looking for lakeside activities -- such as boating, fishing, hiking and water sports -- need look no further than Maple Grove Park, sunbather-friendly Medbury Park or the municipal boat-launch on Ramp Road. Meinert Park offers 67 campsites overlooking Lake Michigan and the Little Flower Creek. The inland Montague Township Park provides a quiet place for baseball games, picnics and family activities. Golfers can tee off at Montague's Old Channel Trail Golf Course (golfotc.com), a 27-hole public venue with an on-site driving range and golf shop.

Also included is a dress worn by Nancy Ann Fleming, a former Miss America born in Montague. Dowling Street hosts the world's largest weathervane, which stands 48 feet high, spans 14 feet and weighs 4,300 lbs. On Ramp Road, the Montague Band Shell is home to free live concerts every Tuesday evening from June through August.

Dining

Thank you for sharing your home with us. It was a nice retreat, especially on the days when the weather didn't "cooperate." The wineries, delis and bakeries in the eighboring towns were very nice. The General Store in Whitehal is a "must see"

Within moments of our arrival, we knew our stay at Big Blu would be special. The weather was perfect, clear skys and comfortable temps, breakfast on the porch to blazing sunsets. We took the kids on all the tourist stops: Mac Wood, the lighthouse, and best of all Happy Mohawk. They had a great time. Best of all....no one wanted to leave

Thanks for a wonderful visit! The house is beautiful. We had a great time visiting the local antique shops and sights. The Old Channel Golf Course is great as well as a stop at the Old Channel Inn for dinner! The Rainbow RAnch for horseback riding is worth the bisit, great horses and staff. The best part was building a bonfire and watching the meteor shower on the beach.
