    A Paradise Resort was just beautiful! The room was clean and comfortable. The owner was accommodating when we had a slight change of plans. When we return to the area, we will definitely stay there again.

    Cute and clean! Easy communication w/ Melissa who promptly responds! Pictures are accurate. Only disappointment is the dock is down a steep staircase. Only an hour from Lake Michigan as well.

    My husband and I stayed for three nights and it was wonderful! The room was very clean, the grounds were beautiful, and the host left plenty of towels! The location is only a few minutes or miles from several different places to eat, drink, hike, bike, kayak, canoe, or tube.

    This is an amazing place and easy to find. From a bygone era, brought up to date, for a more than comfortable and affordable stay. All the modern amenities. Laid my head and chillaxed at A Paradise Resort, overlooking the Muskegon River, while intermittently exploring the surrounding area of the Newaygo State Park, Hardy/Croton Damns, and hiking a section of the Dragon Tail Trail. Melissa is a delightful host. Highly recommend.

    We had an amazing stay at Paradise Resort! It was clean and inviting with lovely decor and comfortable amenities! There is a nice fire pit, gazebo and swing that overlooks the river if you want to relax outside. You can also kayak and fish off the dock. It is a great location near hiking, food and a lovely little market about a mile from the resort. I highly recommended staying here if you are looking for a quiet Michigan getaway!

    Paradise Resort was the perfect getaway for our anniversary. We stayed in one of the studios that was well equipped, clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The resort is located on a bluff, overlooking the Muskegon River. Seating areas are positioned to enjoy the serenity of the landscape. The property is equipped with a dock that jetties out to the river, and there are kayaks available for use (accessories are in the shed). Use caution on the steps down to the dock. We had the opportunity to meet Melissa, the innkeeper. She was accommodating, knowledgeable, and responsive. The resort is located on the main road through the area, resulting in some road noise; additionally, the inn’s large backyard borders a neighboring house, but is separated with a privacy fence. Our only regret, not staying longer!
