Stayed for the weekend during the Irish Music Festival. Location was just minutes from the festival grounds and downtiwn. Micro is a good description as it is pretty small, but it was cozy. Not a good choice if stairs are an issue or if your really tall. But overall it was clean and fairly comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

This apartment was described perfectly. It afforded us a very convenient stay in order to be at the ferry dock at 9:30 a.m. the next morning to cross Lake Michigan. The owner was extremely friendly and accomodating.

Everything was fine thank you. Very cute litl apartment-I love the tub-the ceiling is a little close! Thank you for having us! Great location and being close to the ferry was very convenient! Before I forget you may want to check the batteries in tv remote-we could not get it to work so no tv but not a big deal!! 🥰

Asked for some special accommodations as plans with travel changed. Erin was more than accommodating. The place was small but clean and perfect for a place to sleep.

Cute and charming
Super cute little apartment. Very fresh and clean. It had some amenities like pans, dishes, coffee, bottled water, mints, towels, shampoo and conditioner, lotion, a hair dryer, a fire stick and a oscillating fan in the bedroom. The bed was nice and comfortable. The art work was great! The bathroom was a challenge with the slanted ceiling, especially if you're not used to taking baths.... as there is no shower. However, there is a handheld sprayer. Overall, cute and charming. The neighborhood was quiet and one of the neighbors said hello as I was unpacking my car. The price was right and within close proximity to area attractions. I would definitely recommend.

Simple and Clean
We just needed a simple place with a kitchen to stay for a quick weekend. Everything worked out well overall. There were a couple things I didn't personally care for but they weren't deal breakers. The stairs are semi narrow and somewhat steep making it slightly awkward to access. The tub is underneath a low angled ceiling so when you stand up you have watch your head. Also be prepared to run out of hot water after one bath. Thankfully my wife got her warm rinse in before me. I had about 2 mins of warm and finished in the cold. The rest of the place was fairly spacious and everything was clean. For the price it was a pretty good deal.

Cozy little place
This was the perfect spot for my husband and I to stay. Ideal location for day trips to Ludington and Grand Haven. The apartment was very clean, bed was very comfortable, and kitchen had everything we needed to prepare quick breakfast each morning before heading out! The stairs are very steep and the ceiling in the stairwell has a couple of low spots where my husband had to duck when walking up and down them. The bathroom also has an angled ceiling. He’s 6 feet tall and was able to navigate these two areas without too much difficulty.

Cute upper level apartment
We're a family of 2 adults, a toddler, and a dog and had a great time during our long weekend. The upper level apartment is spacious and very clean, as well as stocked with whatever you may need during a stay. Even the dog had a water bowl and food dish available to her, and hosts provided shampoo, wash, and conditioner as well as a plethora of towels. Large coffee maker and a gas stove were unexpected perks. The minimalist arrangement of furniture leaves plenty of room for bags or play time on the floor (and the carpet looks very new and was clean when we arrived). Bathroom has a tub with a shower wand and a beautiful glass window that reflects rainbows when the sun shines brightly. Separate entrance from any downstairs neighbor, though we couldn't hear anyone from upstairs.
Apartment is situated within a 10-minute drive of downtown and is nestled in a quiet neighborhood with dog-walkers. Plenty of restaurants, bars, and trails nearby, as well as the big Lake.
Would recommend for 2-3 adults and a dog.

honestly such a fun trip to the muskegon/grand haven area — one of my favorite places to travel in michigan. listing is very accurate and we had a blast staying here for a weekend. renter beware — the shower/tub situation is a bit weird and awkward, especially if you’re on the taller side, but is still completely manageable. would stay here again!
