INSIDE: This retreat has been thoughtfully designed with a nod to its mid-century heritage. Three main-floor bedrooms offer convenience and accessibility. The primary bedroom features a king bed and flat-screen TV. The second bedroom has a queen bed and flat screen TV and the third has two twins. A full, shared bath rounds out the main level sleeping area.

Sliders to the attached deck lead to a lovely wooded lot and additional outdoor dining space with a gas grill and fire pit.
The lower level is sure to be the favorite spot for all ages. Enjoy the cozy TV area with a flat-screen and set up your own tournament on the full-sized pool table. An additional bedroom offers a twin daybed with a trundle, a hanging swing chair, and a workspace to catch up on emails while you are away. A full bath and laundry area complete the lower level.

Boltwood Dr vacation
The house and neighborhood were great. It was very convenient for all we wanted to do, and the house was spotless and well-equipped. There were several relatively minor things I would like to be different: it took us three days to figure out where the garage door opener was in order to use the bikes stored there--it was in a front closet that we never thought to look in until we were looking for something else. I wish the location had been listed somewhere. The dryer did work well; but the noise when it was working (which they did tell us about) was quite unpleasant if we were in the house while it was running. And one night we would have liked to use the bathtub; but the stopper didn't block the drain enough to hold any depth of water. However, these are minor things overall, and we did really enjoy many features of the house,especially the back yard and the hammock!

Great location
We stayed here for a family trip. We were able to easily walk to the park every day and walk to the beach. It was a great park and had pickle ball courts. There is also a great walking path. The wagon, chairs and umbrella that were provided were super helpful! The neighbor across the street,Dan, was so welcoming and helpful! Muskegon was great and we will for sure be back!

Nice house, great location!
You’re paying for the location here which can’t be beat! The house is nice; everything is updated except the kitchen and main bathroom. Everything worked as expected. Great communication from the rental company with detailed instructions ahead of time and you can tell they make an effort with rolled towels and toiletries.

GREAT house! Exactly as described and well appointed with everything you should need to have a great time. SO close to the water, just a short walk away. We would definitely stay again… the only negative thing that we could think of is that it’s a bit pricey.

We really enjoyed our stay -- especially the location (proximity to the beach), the four bikes in the garage, the fireplaces and the pool table. We had everything we needed and more. Neighbors were all friendly and welcoming, too!
