About this property

Quaint cabin on the Muskegon River, Newaygo, no cleaning fees

Our cabin is set up to accomodate couples, friends and families with 'feel at home' lodging. It's a great place to bring your clubs and play golf or your fishing gear and take advantage of some of the best Salmon, Trout and Steelhead fishing in North America. The cabin is newly remodeled on the outside and beautifully decorated inside with a relaxing view of the Devils Hole bend of the Muskegon river. As an architect I am dedicated to the fine details for making your experience first class. We cater to anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors in a National Forest. We have all new stainless kitchen appliances, large flat screen HD TV with full cable and great wifi for internet connections, medium and full size refrigerator, air conditioning, washer/dryer, outdoor grill, firepit etc. to make your stay more comfortable. Our home is freshly remodeled from top to bottom both inside and out. It is exceptionally clean and completely furnished with everything you would need for a great stay. Please note the rate is for the first 3 people. I try to keep rates down for couple so they don’t have to pay to clean 5 beds. I spend a lot in cleaning to keep it how I would like it if I stayed here.



Our 850 s.f. cabin is situated at 2485 Muskegon Blvd on the steep high bank within the Devils Hole Bend of the Muskegon River. It is waterfront but only plan on veiwing river and not being able to access. We are upstream about 3.5 miles from the small town of Newaygo and a half mile below the Thornapple boat launch. Nestled within the Manistee National Forest our small neighborhood shares the Manistee with turkey, deer and black bear. Considered a fly fishing haven for brown trout, rainbow trout, steelhead and salmon, the river is suited to wading, drift fishing, kayaking and canoeing.
Enjoy an outstanding view down to the river while maintaining the feeling of total seclusion as your nestled within 100' tall hardwood trees. We are set up with 5 beds in 3 rooms (1 queen bed, 2 fulls and 2 twins), a fully stocked kitchen, linens and towels. We cater to those who want to spend a few relaxing days fishing, canoeing, kayaking and golfing. We have fishing guides if you are so inclined, I would not recommend being able to fish on the river in front of our cabin because of the steep access. Unfortunately we do not accept pets.

Anniversary weekend at Devils hole lodge
We Love this cute little cabin overlooking the Muskegon river! This was our 2nd time there and we had snow each time. Cabin is very well equipped with everything you need and then some. It sits in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by trees. Town with restaurants and shopping is close by. Owner is wonderful with keeping in contact. We'll definitely be back!

Great location, close to lakes and fishing at the river!
We enjoyed our stay, it was convenient, close to Brooks lake and the river to fish and kayak along with being close to town. The bonfire was a great pit and the layout is so cute and comfortable, we will book again. The owners were great with communication.

Perfect for our long weekend getaway. Far enough from the city to feel like you are secluded but close enough to grab a bit to eat or go to the store.

Great get away
We wanted to spend a few days fishing and kayaking and getting away from the city. This lodge was perfect size and location for what we wanted to do. The only thing I wish they had dusted a bit better as it did bother my allergies.

West Side of Michigan
Kyle was such a great host and easy to get ahold of! The property had beautiful views, a lot of wildlife, and surprisingly very little bugs! The kids enjoyed having a bunk bed and with two spare rooms my son also had his own space. The decor screams west side of Michigan and it was so nice to have a larger fridge and freezer in the shed. Plenty of room for a family traveling with all their things!

Perfect getaway!
We needed a place to get out of the crazy flow and this was the perfect place. Right off the river, we enjoyed the fire pit and quiet surroundings. The place was stocked with essentials which made it convenient. Next getaway to Michigan will include another stay here!

Just What We Needed
Devil’s Hole Lodge was just what we needed for a quiet few days in the area visiting family—a comfortable bed and a peaceful setting. We enjoyed the fire pit for a hotdog roast and were entertained by the traffic on the river.

Not what we were expecting!
This cabin is a very cute cabin that has a lot of character. We were extremely put off when we first pulled up by the amount of junk that was piled up in the neighbors yards on both sides. When we walked in, we were initially pleased! It truly is a quaint cabin in the woods with lots of character! But it didn’t take long for us to realize how dirty this place was! The owner relies on the next door neighbors to clean his cabin. After talking with him about it, he was genuinely apologetic! Also, there is no river access with this house, if that is something you’re looking for! I would recommend talking with the owner before booking this cabin, to see if changes have been made to his cleaning staff!!!!

Beautiful, peaceful but karen neighbor.
So it's taken me about a month to think of how I was going to write this review. I rented this beautiful cabin for my parents and my sister. I met them on the property since I had all of the information. I opened the cabin for them, helped them unpack, sat with them. We honestly weren't there long. Honestly it is a absolutely BEAUTIFUL spot. But please make sure you read the contract closely. One of the neighbors takes care of the property for the owner which is cool. Good for them they have someone very close to help with the upkeep. What wasn't great was not only did the neighbor decide to say something immediately to the owner about us sitting at the fire pit with my parents instead of being an adult and saying hey you can't be here for this reason, that would have been fine. But then to also literally watch my parents and sister anytime they were outside the cabin. That was the only negative from my parents vacation. When we asked the owner last minute if we could pitch a tent in the yard so my children could camp for one night he was okay with that. But after dealing with the neighbor we decided to not do that. They cleaned up after themselves. Made sure everything was the way they found it.The layout of the cabin itself is absolutely perfect. It is definitely affordable for younger people or someone who wants to be alone. Just remember no one can visit.

Nice, comfortable cottage.
Overall, great trip. The main bedroom, The mattress is very comfortable. I works have given 5 stars on cleanliness. However, when we arrived: There wasn't any toilet paper. We went into town and bought. There was used coffee grounds in coffee pot, the outdoor grill looked like it had not been cleaned in a while we cleaned it. The outdoor furniture on the front porch was covered in cobwebs and 🕷. Shower had grit from what appeared to have been comet cleanser. Access to river or lake was extremely difficult unless you want to.pay someone. Best thing is to have a fishing guide. Kyle overall is excellent owner and excellent customer service.

About the host

Hosted by Kyle Harris

Host profile image
We live in Texas but my wife is from Michigan and we travel up 4-5 times per year to fish and visit her family. I am a Landscape Architect and my wife is in the Insurance industry.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this place because of its feeling of seclusion yet a great view of the river. The fishing has no rivals. The locals have made us feel at home and many have already become great friends.

What makes this property unique

One thing we didnt realize is how many top ranked golf courses and antique shops there are in the area.
