We had a magical girls’ weekend in Muskegon, and our stay at Red Bird Cottage was a big part of what made it so special. Ed was an exceptional host—communicative before and during our stay and always willing to go above and beyond. He provided great recommendations for local live music, restaurants, and transportation, which helped us make the most of our trip.The cottage is in an ideal location: peaceful and quiet, yet within walking distance of the beach and The Deck, and just a short bike ride to Dockside Donuts, local parks, and Wonderland Distillery. We loved being able to catch the sunrise over Lake Muskegon and enjoy spectacular sunsets at Pere Marquette Beach.The cottage itself was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with amenities. We especially appreciated the extra touches, including beach towels, bicycles, and a fresh herb garden. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would happily return on a future visit to Muskegon.
