One of the best places to get a nice meal with a good view, right on the water near downtown. Quasi-fancy (for muskegon). Also a good spot for drinks outside on the deck.

Steep dunes, but fantastic view once you get up there. Less than half a mile up the beach from the house, although the beach path is a bit more treacherous this year, with some washout between the house and Kruse. Still traversable but you may get wet.

The Muskegon River runs south-west from northern Michigan and empties into Lake Michigan at the pier, about 2 miles north of the lake house. The Muskegon is home to world class fishing, including brown, brook & rainbow trouts (steelhead) as well as a chinook (king salmon) run in the fall and the occasional lake sturgeon. The best fishing is about an hour away, between the town of Newaygo and the Croton dam. There's a great fly shop in Newaygo that can help you with any questions.
