Located in a safe, cute neighborhood with well-maintained homes and gardens. Neighborhood was quiet and the house provided a nice home-base to come back to after making day trips. Located about a block off the harbor and about 8 minutes from one of a dozen dog beaches along Lake Michigan. Minutes from anywhere in Muskegon. A cute craftsman style house that felt private, everything was on one level, and there were only around three steps into the house. The kitchen is a decent size with a full-size fridge. Cute dishes and plenty of cups, flatware, and quality pots and pans. The dining room has a large table that seats four and it provided a great gathering spot for art, games, and meals. The backyard provided a secure fence for our dogs to safely move around and explore. There was a great grill conveniently hooked up to a gas line. The bedrooms were a decent size with the main bedroom having a nice dresser.Now our only negatives:- We didn't use the screened-in front porch because it was quite dirty and hairy.- The AC unit was pretty loud when it was running.- The couch has seen better days and could use replacing. It seats three but not super comfortable for more than two.-The bunk beds were sufficient but weren't overly functional. It was difficult to get in and out for a young person.Otherwise, if you're looking for a quiet, safe, charming older home with character that's pet friendly, this is a great home.
