Why Castaways?
Do you fondly recall visiting your grandparent's cabin as a child? Relive that nostalgic feeling here at Castaways Cottages. Nestled on Croton Pond, our cozy cottages offer stunning views and many recreational opportunities along the Muskegon River. Enjoy complimentary kayaks and paddleboats, and explore nearby hiking and biking trails. Whether you're seeking adventure or a peaceful retreat, Castaways is your perfect home-away-from-home, conveniently located near local dining, grocery store, and gas station.
Accomodations
Property
Castaways Cottages are located between the Croton and Hardy Dams on the Muskegon River. There are about 10 steps down to the water’s edge. A dock extends into the water and a boardwalk runs along the water’s edge with room to moor your boat if you choose to bring one along. While you visit, please feel free to take out the paddleboat and kayaks (shared/in season). You may catch sight of a bald eagle soaring above, or a family of ducks gliding along the pond. The cares of life seem to melt away in the beauty of nature.
Cottages
Experience the charm of our cozy 450 sq ft cabin, featuring a main living area complete with a seating area, TV, and a small dining space. The kitchen area

Step outside to relax with a picnic table and Adirondack chairs, ideal for sipping your morning coffee in nature's embrace.
