Michillinda Lodge Resort

The first night due to the unscreened part of a window and a light left on we had an infestation of little black bugs. We spent time killing probably around 100. We didn't know who to contact after the office closed. Luckily the weren't a biting insect. The next day the gave us a larger, very nice room across the hall. The view of the lake from our room was great. All in all we were pleased with our second room. Could use larger toilets.

My wife and I are not large people but the toilets were small and crowded up against the wall.

what a happy little accident that I found this place. I felt like I was transported back in time. A simpler time. I wasn’t expecting to love this place so much. i honestly wish I would’ve had more time here. it has so much to do and such a family atmosphere. everyone I encountered was kind. there were lots of families there. it was fun to hear children playing and running around. It was a throw back to my childhood. at first I thought I would be disappointed about no tv’s, but honestly I was too busy to watch anyway. I was just in the moment the whole time.

I didn’t like that I had zero cell service and internet was spotty. which normally it wouldn’t have been a big deal as it’s nice to turn off everything. However, I have an elderly mother that I could not check on, while I was there. I had to drive a few miles down the road to get service.

The location is beautiful. There's so many amenities to stay busy. Very relaxing. It has great views of Lake Michigan. The property is maintained very well. Some of the wild flowers and grass could use some trimming along walkways to make for an easier walk to the viewing areas, which gives you beautiful views of Lake Michigan and evening sunsets. The lower viewing deck area is so relaxing to watch the water and listen to the waves. There is beach access from the deck but not the best beach it sits under an unstable dunes and the beach looks a little scary with old watered tree roots and metal pieces on the beach as well as in the water. They do have signs posted warning you. You are able to take a swim or get your feet wet just be careful. If you want to swim I would go down the road about 10 minutes to the Duck Lake State Park Area or Lake Michigan road side beach it's just a bit safer. Make sure to either pack food to cook in the shared kitchen, grill or warm up in your room microwave and fridge or drive 15 minutes or more to either the Muskegon or surrounding areas to buy food. I will be back, it's a beautiful property.

The small fire pits. I was expecting large in ground fire pits....but that's nothing you still have fire pits to use...

The place was beautiful. Great lake views, very quiet and clean. Relaxing and private. Cabin C was a great cabin for my family, large his and hers sink and bathroom. Rooms are good size as well. Bbq area was a plus and the common cooking area helped a lot. Weather was kinda chilly so we did not get to use tennis/ and pickle ball court. And unfortunately the pool was also not ready at the time of our stay. Would definitely come back!

The location was amazing! We loved the ability to go to the pool or the beach, and the amount of activities for the whole family to enjoy was great. It was just our small family, but we realized this is a great place to bring the extended family for a fun stay. We will definitely return to Michillinda Lodge Resort!

The photos didn't show how great the place was. We are blown away when we made it up the driveway into a clearing and saw the extent of the resort. Besides that, it was an awesome stay.

We just loved our stay at Michillinda Lodge. The setting was beautiful and were so pleased with all the fun activities that our boys could do. The swimming pool was a big hit aswell as basketball and tennis. We travelled from England and this was one of our stop offs. We're hoping to return next time to visit and for longer

The doors into the next room could be opened and you could hear the guests in there very easily

This is a small campground with several single family cabins and multi-unit buildings clustered around a compact central area. Located in a somewhat remote, wooded area along the shoreline, the setting is calm and rustic. The sunset views over the lake are splendid and a pool is available for use. My particular unit was one of the smallest and did not come with a television but was extremely clean and cozy. As a campground, food is not provided at all but visitors are encouraged to bring their own for cook-outs or they can visit a small convenience store located just beside the campground entrance.

I was somewhat surprised by the close quarters and lack of privacy. I had noisy, snoring neighbors just beside me and another guest in a unit above me on the second floor. As a family friendly campground there were many children running around, playing throughout the evening. My unit was mere footsteps away from their cabin and finding a quiet space would have been a challenge. I was also surprised not to have had a television, which I assumed to be standard. Maybe the larger units at the property come better equipped and are more private?

Location, location and location. I'm sure in the summertime this place is hopping. So,so much to do. From the pool ( closed because of the season) to tennis and pickle ball courts, frisbee golf to basketball courts. From fire pits to horseshoe pits. From chilling on their beautiful deck to grilling on the many grills they have to use. Oh there's more.

Nothing. Nothing

Amazing location, comfort and activities. The shared amenties are great, but could be updated (tennis court, specifically) if I am "nit picking" I also appreciated the lack of TVs in the room. Overall a great experience and value, will be back with a larger group.

Tennis courts could be updated, right now only one of them are usable.

The bed was really comfortable. The view beautiful.The pool was 10 feet deep at the deep end not just five. I can go on and on about the beauty.

No cell service anywhere on property. The picnic area had maybe two bars sometimes if you were lucky.Had to go out onto the road to get anything at all.
