Great little space near the lake!

This was a perfect fit for our little family of 4. Close to Lake Michigan, private in back, we saw so many deer in the morning - my daughter loved that! It was cozy, clean, and Ed was super helpful sharing tips of places to eat or things going on in town!

Great stay!

We had a great time staying here at Ed’s place! He was right there through text every time we needed! It was a very short walk to the beach and loved the privacy of the fire pit! It was very clean and a true testament when I have twins babies who are crawling everywhere! No dirty knees at all lol. We will plan to stay again in the future!

Cozy Eagles Nest Cottage

The Eagles Nest was perfect for our family party that was near by.We celerbrated our 20th year anniversary at the eagles nest cottage, we used it for a quite get-a-way in the evening. It was an exceptionaly clean and comfortable place, with nice furnishings. Also it was very close to Pere Marquette, witch was beauitful. I would recommend this to any one with a small family who is looking for a great get away! We will be back.

Muskegon dunes

Location and property was excellent. A few instructions were unclear and there was an issue with the heating on the first night but the property manager was very responsive, but it just wasn't as prepared for our stay as could have been (appropriate amount of bedding and double checking HVAC operations)

Cute Hillside Cottage

I enjoyed my stay at The Nest. The accommodations were comfortable and attractive. The property’s exterior was professionally landscaped with a mixture of flowers, grasses and other plants. There was a private patio bordered by a natural wood fence, mature trees and a dune. The interior was decorated in a cute style with a balanced use of color. The kitchen had pretty dinnerware and was well stocked with essential tools and cookware. Pere Marquette Beach was a short drive away. The beach area is expansive and provides ample room for enjoying the lovely skyscapes, sand, and Lake Michigan.

Carriage House

We enjoyed our stay in the carriage house. It was clean and well equipped with all the basics. We were in the area for the Burning Foot Festival, so we only spent mornings and evenings at the house. We never had to go to the store to get shampoo, soap, coffee, wood for a fire. It was all provided for us at the carriage house. It was within walking distance to the beach and had an awesome private fire pit and patio. Morning coffee time was spent watching the deer walk by (about 10 feet away). We would definitely go back.

Quaint Lake Michigan Getaway

Dune trails behind house were awesome, along with numerous deer sightings. Easy walk to Pere Marquette (0.5 miles). Bring disposable dishes if you don’t want to wash dishes by hand. Owner was great and proactive in communications. Definitely staying again!!

Tiny cottage in a nice location

The property is very small but has a nice living area and all the basic equipment. There were no condiments, coffee, etc at all so bring everything with you or plan to hit the grocery store. There is a lot of glass in the sandy trails behind the house so watch your step! Overall, a nice place to stay.

This was a great location for our weekend at the lake. It was very easy walking to the lake. The apartment was in a quiet neighborhood. It was very easy to access and was very clean. It's a small place, but plenty of room for two people. We had a wonderful time.

Perfect Little Vacation

The carriage house is perfect for a couple or small family. It was absolutely spotless and although small it had everything we needed! Even though you are in a neighborhood when you are outside by the fire pit it actually feels like you are the only ones around. The location is perfect. We spent the first day at MI Adventure and after short drive made it to the property for the rest of our stay. The beach is maybe a minutes drive away and that’s how we spent most of our time. The last day we took the 30 minute drive to Silver Lake Dunes. Highly recommend this property and we will certainly be back!
