Large house on quiet canal of all-sport Eight Point Lake

With six bedrooms, three bathrooms, two kitchens, a living room and family room, you’ll find the right space to have the comforts of home while enjoying the relaxing atmosphere of a lake get-away. It is the perfect blend of family time located on a quiet canal with a DNR boat launch nearby. A neighborhood beach for swimming in the big lake is just down the road.

Our property has a sandy area for the kids to play but not an area for swimming. In the summer of 2025, the water in our canal dried up completely due to drought conditions. We are hoping for a snowy winter and rainy spring to bring back the water in front of our house. We provide kayaks that can be taken to the boat launch to drop in or for a river ride down the Muskegon River. There's a grill on the deck and nice play area for the kids. There's plenty of room for yard games like corn hole and ladder ball.

The house is just 3.8 miles away from the Pere Marquette Rail Trail which is great for walking, biking and snowmobiling. Six golf courses are within 30 miles and Soaring Eagle Casino is about 30 minutes away. Additional fun can be had tubing or kayaking down the Muskegon River which is only about 15 minutes away. Tubes, rafts & additional kayaks are available through J&J's River Run in Evart.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

Our group of about 15 family and friends had a good time at the house. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. Nice deck, fire pit and grill. However the canal the house is on was all dried up. The owner told me the water levels were too low for boating but i didn't expect there to be zero water in the canal. There was a beach a few houses down we could have carried the kayaks to but the weather was too chilly to be in or on the water. It would have a bit of a hike to carry the kayaks and gear that far anyway, especially with a couple of little kids. We all had a good together despite the chilly weather and lack of a water view

Plenty of space. Unfortunately the air wasn’t working on Sunday so we had to turn it off and wait for the compressor to thaw. It did work better for the next 11 hours. And one of the bedrooms, that had a portable unit did not work. Which ended up ok, because we ended up not using it. The water in the canal is pretty non existent, but the neighborhood beach was great!! Would we rent it again-definitely!

Beware- not even close to the waterfront property that is pictured. We booked this house so we could pull up our pontoon to the dock as pictured in the listing. The channel is completely dried up and is almost all grass and muck. The mention of no swimming is because there is literally no water. This should have been communicated. Bigger boats are unable to use the only boat launch on the lake due to the shallow water. We had to drive to a different lake every day. Local residents were very friendly and were appalled we were not notified of the shallow lake conditions. The house itself was overall just ok. Couches and pillows are significantly stained. Lots of spiders and spider webs - one room was deemed the "spider room" and kept closed. The outside appears neglected with weeds and webs. The kitchen was well stocked with the usual essentials. For the price of the rental it certainly did not meet our expectations. Attempted to come to an agreeable resolution with the property owner but were ultimately left unanswered by ourselves and Venmo team when they attempted to call the owner.

Just a portion of the couch stains
Overgrown weeds in the front of the house
Fire pit was still smoking when we arrived.

Annual family vacay

Four generations, lots of outdoorsy activities available. The kayaks were of great use, great the firepit and blackstone, lots of extra seating outside. The checkin process provided all access to the home (not the garage),wifi access, etc, so that worked great. The play area for the kids was awesome! We were pleased with our stay!!! Many fish were caught in 8pointlake (walleye, pike, bass...) lots of fun. Some things that were different from other VRBO stays - many VRBOs have *new* towels, *new* matching linens, blah blah blah...this place didn't and we were FINE with that...It was a lived in feel - and there were plenty of towels, plenty of beds, linens, fans, AC was cool enough, etc. Great extra kitchen and play room for kids. Great for families:)

Lots to do

Extremely fun property. I was a little disappointed we couldn't swim in the backyard Beach. The water was really mucky but there is a cleaner Beach just down the road in walking distance. The home wasn't the cleanest, some cob webs and such, but by no means disgusting as some of the other reviews say. It's a lake house, not a 5 star resort. I would take my family there again.

Family vacation

Every year we take our entire family, 19 of us, on vacation as a gift. This is hands down the best house we’ve ever rented. It’s huge, clean, well stocked with anything imaginable you could possibly need. The location is perfect! The kids had so much fun playing in the lake. And the adults got to relax on the deck without having to worry about the kids needing to be entertained. The kitchen was very well stocked with all types of cookware, utensils, plates, silverware, etc. Except for food, we didn’t have to bring anything with us or buy anything while we were there. There was even an ice maker that made large batches of ice.

The home is definitely stocked for a big crowd. Lots of silverware and plates and cups. Plenty of supplies, but I had brought most everything not knowing for sure if there would be enough. I did bring 2 large frying pans because most places don't have those. The only thing was they had run out of gas for the grill, but we made do..There was a nice firepit with lots of wood.

Spacious and kid friendly, could have been cleaner

Very spacious and easily accommodated our group of 12 with bedrooms and bathrooms. Plenty of beds and towels. However, the overall cleanliness and maintenance could have been better. The floors in the whole house and window sills were dirty when we arrived. The bathrooms, kitchens and upstairs fridge also did not seem to have been cleaned, and there was sand and cobwebs in many places. Well stocked and functional kitchen, though we missed enough mealtime seating for everyone. The outdoor space was great, very kid friendly and great for adults too. The public beach down the street was a very easy walking distance and truly an amazing beach. Communication with our host Julie was good, efficient and friendly.
