Norton Shores House | Bailey's Beach Retreat 1 mile from Lake Michigan

3 Bedroom House in Norton Shores, Muskegon

This delightful vacation home is situated just 1.5 miles from public beach access on the shores of Lake Michigan. It offers a serene and peaceful setting while still being close to the vibrant beachfront activities. The massive beech trees that surround the house are part of the private, natural setting for this well-appointed home, making it ideal for a stress-free vacation. The property features two spacious decks with comfortable seating and a dining area, perfect for outdoor meals on the gas grill and relaxation. The backyard includes a fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars.
Baileys Beach Retreat can comfortably sleep nine guests. The master bedroom offers a luxurious king-size bed with a serene ambiance. It includes an attached master bathroom with modern fixtures, a spacious shower, and a soaking tub. The loft bedroom offers three twin beds, providing additional sleeping space. It's a cozy and inviting retreat for guests seeking a bit of privacy. The bedroom in the basement has a queen bed, and the open sleeping area downstairs contains a twin daybed with twin trundle bed. Additionally, the home offers a variety of games, books, and movies to ensure you have plenty of options to keep everyone entertained throughout your stay. Whether you're into binge-watching, gaming, reading, or watching films, you'll find something to enjoy every moment of your vacation! This is not a pet friendly property.
Note from Owner: "On humid summer nights when I was growing up, my mom would pack up our dinner and we'd have a picnic at the Elks Park (which our property abuts) followed by a swim in Lake Michigan to cool off. We always slept better on those nights. I named the house Bailey's Beach Retreat, because for me, this solitary house in the dunes surrounded by towering beech trees is a special place to enjoy the peace and serenity of nature. We've provided lots of games, puzzles, movies and books because for us, the best part of a vacation is laughing and playing with the family, but also having quiet time to read a good book. Our grown-up kids still love Putter's Creek on the Causeway in North Muskegon for go-carting and miniature golf and of course, Michigan's Adventure. We never visit Muskegon without going to G & L for a Greek cheddar chili dog special – order it with everything. Try Ryke's bakery on Terrace St for good old-fashioned baked goods or The Village Bakery in Spring Lake or their other location – The Baker's Wife – on Washington in Grand Haven for delicious muffins, breads and other treats. Our favorite galleries are the Uptown and C2C in Grand Haven, and Art Cats in Muskegon. Also, don't miss the Muskegon Farmers Market. They're open several days a week, but Saturday is best. There's a baker there who makes a killer cherry strudel and look for the Cheese Lady (who also has a storefront downtown). Of course you'll also find plenty of fruit and vegetables if you're into that kind of thing. We treasure every day we're able to spend at our Michigan home and we hope you will too."

Summary: We were just doing a friend get together. It looked like the photos online. It was very close to different towns so there were options on what to do. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, but also come together to plan games or sit by the fire.
