About This Home

2 bed 2 bath cottage close to Newaygo State Park and the Muskegon River/Hardy Dam Pond. Tons of upside on this fixer upper. Seller looking for cash offers but would consider a conventional offer. Property is winterized and no utilities are currently on. The house features a relatively open layout and a detached oversized 1 stall garage. It sits on a slab and has wall heaters along with hard lined gas fireplaces. Amazing opportunity to join a local dock association that is just steps away to keep your boat on the Muskegon River/Hardy Dam frontage.
