Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute little place with amazing views! I stay here all of the time when I can get to MI. Bob and Joy are wonderful owners! So much to do in the area! State parks and you have to float down the Muskegon River with Wisner Rents Canoes. They have float and rafts also! The cottages are small but thats all you need! You are only there to shower and sleep. Wal- Mart is a good 20-30 min away north or south. Two good restaurants to eat at. Diner between the dams and Driftwood Bar. Cute little grocery store down the road. Chilly water all of the time! ##### Jackie B.
