Beautiful, clean house. Had everything we needed for our trip. The beach access is directly across the street and the beach was quiet with soft sand. An easy drive into Grand Haven for shopping, dining, or waking on the boardwalk. Lovely views from the spacious upper deck and the Lakeshore Trolley goes past the house, which our children loved! We will bring our bikes next time as there are very nice bike paths! The communication from the owners was excellent and they were available throughout the stay for anything we may have needed. We had a wonderful time and hope to return!
Weâve stayed at a number of places in the Grand Haven area. This is by far one of the best. Easy access to everything, including the beach. We were not disappointed.
We had a wonderful family vacation enjoying this great spot on Lake Michigan. Loved the view of the lake from the deck and the ease of getting to the beach. The home was comfortable and met most of our needs. Only suggestion would be to have a kitchen table large enough to accommodate 8 people which is the property capacity.
We had a wonderful stay and look forward to returning.
The house was perfect for our stay! Great location (beach access directly across the street) and the house is much bigger than it looks in the photos. Barb and her father were available and promptly answered any and all questions that came up during our stay. We had a wonderful time!
This property was perfect for us! We stayed for the week and had the best time. There is a master bedroom and bathroom on the upper floor with the kitchen, dining room and living room. The deck is a great place for eating and relaxing and looking at the gorgeous views of Lake Michigan. The entrance to the beach is right across the street and the beach is clean and sandy, bring some sand toys though! They have beach chairs and 2 pool noodles. There is a washer and dryer on site, which is great! Shipt and Instacart deliver to the address, so you don't even need to grocery shop! It's about 1 mile to North Shore Marina and a 10 min. drive to restaurants in Grand Haven. We will stay here again!! Communication with the family was super easy and they were helpful providing the check in process in advance.
Lovely home, directly across street from beach path
This is a lovely place and much larger than the pictures make it look. There really is only seating for 4 at the kitchen table, but there is more seating on the deck.
We've stayed on the North Shore before, so we knew what to bring for a week at beach. Beach toys are limited, but we had our own SUP board, umbrellas, vests, etc.
There is some issue with the upstairs bathtub. It drains very slowly, but we used it for showers only, so it wasn't an issue for us.
Easy walk to the public tennis courts and the North Shore Beach.
Very clean home and location was great, just across the road from Lake Michigan and a County Park just down the road! Reverse floor plan, so stairs to main living area.
The owners are very nice and friendly, and quick to answer any questions we had. The table in the kitchen only set 4 and one additional comfortably. It worked out for us as most of the time we only had 4 people there. A family of six to eight would have had to eat inside / outside or eat off the plates in the living room. The location was fantastic, lots of things to do, the beach was wonderful, and we spent most of our day there. I would definitely want this Cottage again.
My family (5 adults and 2 children) stayed here during Coast Guard Festival week and felt the location was perfect. We were close enough to downtown to partake in the festivities if we wanted to, but just far enough away from the craziness. The house is much bigger than it looks and was a great reverse floorplan. We had beautiful sunsets and could see the lake from the porch, living room, and master bedroom. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped. The road was busy, so something to be aware of, but we managed just fine. We had a little one in a stroller and it did not work to take it through the dunes down to the water, path was too narrow. Overall, we would definitely rent here again!! Thanks Barb, Ben, and Bud!
