About the host
Hosted by Dr. Tennille Woodward
Hi, I’m Tennille! I’m originally from the South but have called beautiful West Michigan home for years. I’m passionate about leadership, personal growth, and creating spaces that inspire both rest and reflection. As a host, I love helping guests experience a true getaway—whether you're here to relax by the water, connect with nature, or gather with your team or loved ones. Hosting is a joy for me because it combines my love for hospitality, design, and meaningful experiences. Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here!
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it’s the perfect blend of natural beauty, peaceful seclusion, and easy access to small-town charm. Nestled along the Muskegon River, the area offers stunning waterfront views, serene forests, and abundant wildlife—yet it’s only minutes from shops, dining, and local attractions. What I love most is the calm that settles in at sunset, the sound of the river flowing, and the way people instantly feel more grounded here. It’s a place where creativity flows, conversations deepen, and time seems to slow down—whether you’re here for a weekend retreat or a family escape.
What makes this property unique
What makes Sunset Shores unique is how it effortlessly blends comfort, connection, and calm. Designed with families and couples in mind, our riverfront retreat invites you to slow down and truly be present—with each other and with nature. Whether you’re roasting marshmallows by the fire or watching the sunset from the riverbank, you’ll find space here to reconnect in meaningful ways.
There’s limited cell service—on purpose. But don’t worry, we do have Wi-Fi if you need it. Sunset Shores offers the perfect balance of unplugged moments and modern convenience, making it a one-of-a-kind destination for memory-making and meaningful time together.
