You pull off Walker Road and the first thing you notice is space—broad lots, trees, and the kind of breathing room that comes with being on the edge of things. There's a grocery store less than a mile away, and a baker's dozen of restaurants within walking distance, so you're not exactly out in the middle of nowhere; there's a coffee shop about a mile down the road if you need it. The Pines park sits just over two miles off, good for a short drive when you want green. You're looking at Muskegon Public Schools of the City of for schools. The real pull, though, is the location—you're 22 minutes from Grand Haven's beaches and right in Muskegon charter township, which means you get the land and the convenience without feeling swallowed up by everything happening closer to Grand Rapids, which sits about 52 minutes south.
