Windhaven on Lake Michigan in North Muskegon

As you turn off the main road onto the 500 foot long winding wooded
lane, your anticipation grows. When you pull up to the back of the
house, you can already smell the fresh, clean breeze coming off of
Lake Michigan. And, when you open the car door, you can hear the
waves. You rush toward the front yard and as you walk to the edge of
the 50 foot bluff, overlooking your private beach, you are
overwhelmed by the beauty of this place. You don’t wait to unpack
the car. You rush down the 60 steps to the beach. You kick off your
shoes and run to the waters edge. You only intend to test the water
but, before you know it you’re in up to your knees, your pants are
wet, and you don’t even care. And, so begins one of the most
memorable vacations you’ll ever experience.

With three bedrooms upstairs and a children’s dorm in the basement,
there’s plenty of room for large families and small reunions. The
screened in porch is a perfect place to curl up with your
favorite book, write a letter, build a puzzle, or challenge the kids
to a game of gin rummy. The home is air conditioned for those rare
occasions when the cool breeze coming off of the lake isn't enough to
maintain your comfort. And, the living room features a gas fireplace
that can take the chill off of cool, off-season, evenings. The
kitchen is fully equipped and features two microwaves to handle the
rush to "eat fast and get back down to the beach". Two bathrooms,
one with a shower and the other with a tub/shower combination, handle
the call of nature. For those that can't miss their afternoon soap,
even while on vacation, there are three televisions, all with basic
cable, throughout the house. There is also a fairly extensive library of
DVDs.  If you forgot to pack enough socks, have no fear. A washer
and dryer reside in the basement. Search Windhaven on Lake Michigan

Silversides, a World War II era submarine that’s open for daily tours
during the summer and dune scooter rides at Silver Lake, near Shelby,

Milwaukee in just two and a half hours. For the golfer in the family
there are several golf courses within convenient driving distance and
for the history buff there's the White River light house along the

Drive is the historic Red Rooster tavern. Check out their wet
burritos.
