About this house rental
‘The Haven at Bluffton’ is a beautiful A-frame style home with over 3600 square feet of living space. This 3 level home sits right on the Muskegon Channel with 68 feet of lagoon/channel frontage with room to dock a boat (or two). The amazing views and both the indoor and outdoor spaces make this a very special place to be.
This beautiful home features two full kitchens, an open living area, family room, two fireplaces, five bedrooms and three full baths. Central air throughout. The master suite features a king size bed and private bath and is located on the third level with a separate sitting area and balcony overlooking the living area below. The second floor has a full kitchen with wood floors, dining area, large family room with fireplace and two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with a twin and a community bathroom. Off of the main living area is a large deck with ample seating for dining or just hanging out and taking in the fabulous views. The ground level floor offers another full kitchen, dining area, and living room with a fireplace, bathroom and two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a full bed and a twin bed. There is more and ample outdoor dining space on the ground floor patio. Sleeping a total of 10 in beds/bedrooms, we also have a high-end memory foam queen sofa sleeper in the ground floor living room for a total of 12 sleeping surfaces. With over 3600 sq. ft. of living space, there is plenty of room to spread out for privacy or gather in our comfy community areas. With large windows to enjoy the views, tasteful decorations, and fully stocked amenities and linens, you will enjoy all the comforts of home and, most likely, a bit more.
For outdoor living, The Haven has it all. We have a large deck off the second floor living area overlooking the yard and channel, a large patio below that deck and a fantastic wood deck adjacent to the lagoon/channel that offers close-up views of the channel and fishing. The decks and patio have ample seating and dining areas available to enjoy beautiful sunsets and outdoor breezes. We also have a fire ring, gas grill and cute little sitting areas scattered around the property. The landscaped yard is lush and meticulously maintained and is a pleasure to stroll through.
The waterfront deck has a boat well and docking cleats so you can bring your boat, or rent one nearby. Whether you are relaxing inside, or enjoying our outdoor space, you are going to love your get-a-way of waterfront views! Enjoy the continuous parade of watercraft as they travel through the channel. We have some of the biggest ships in the Great Lakes region passing through, truly a sight to behold.
The home is located in the Bluffton area of Muskegon, nestled on a peninsula between the channel and a marina/beach. We have two beaches within walking distance. Pere Marquette Park boasts 2.4 miles of clean beach along Lake Michigan and Harbourtowne Beach is just a stone’s throw away and sits on the shore of Muskegon Lake. Parking at all beaches and parks is pay-to-park at the kiosk.
We have a terrific restaurant that sits right on the beach at Pere Marquette. The Deck is just north of the pier and has quickly become a destination spot serving up smoked meats and sides with other great menu selections. All outdoor seating and on-the-beach entertainment nightly. For those familiar with our area, Dockers Fishouse restaurant is no more :( However, it has been purchased and being revamped by the folks that own The Deck and will be opening as BoDocks in 2026.
The revitalized Downtown Muskegon area is about a 10 minute drive with lots of unique dining options available as well as our awesome Muskegon Farmers Market- open every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday 8am-2pm and Western Market Chalets a short walk from the Farmers Market.
We have a new marina at Adelaide Pointe in the downtown area. It is really a destination place with the addition of The Muskegon Brewing Company restraunt offering stunning rooftop seating with views of Muskegon lake and our magnificient sunsets.
Our immediate area offers many parks and trails, bike paths and nature areas, piers and lighthouses. We are always happy to make recommendations on things to do in West Michigan.
We invite you to come visit our fresh water wonderland here in Bluffton. With The Haven serving as your home base, you'll create wonderful Lake Michigan vacation memories that will last a lifetime!

The house was just as described. Great house and perfect location! The host was very helpful and responsive.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
This was our third stay at The Haven at Bluffton. That alone should count as the best review. With full kitchens and dining areas on the 1st and 2nd levels, meals were a breeze for multiple families. Each kitchen is fully overstocked for meal prep and serving, and a dishwasher on each floor made cleanup a breeze too. There are lots of seating areas inside and outside to hang out on the deck, covered patio, dock, or side yard. The backyard is a great place for kids (and adults) to play; and for campfires and smores at night. Everyone enjoyed watching the boats in the channel…especially the Lake Express and occasional freighter. Harbourtowne Beach on Muskegon Lake is a short walk and provides a flat sandy beach and shallow water. Pere Marquette Beach on Lake Michigan is larger (and busier) with a very cool playground. Communication with the hosts, Kathy and Chuck, is quick and friendly.

The location along the channel afforded beautiful views and a continuous "boat parade." We were in close proximity to beaches as well as biking, hiking, and local eateries, breweries, etc.The home was the most well-equipped VRBO property we have ever stayed in (and we have stayed in a lot)!The property manager responded quickly and was exceedingly helpful with information to make our trip all we hoped it would be! Ages 1 - 62 had a wonderful week!

Quite pleased with the overall layout of the house, especially with the outside decks. Plenty of room to spread out and sleeping arrangements were flexible. The two kitchens and depth of cooking utensils were most appreciated.
