Summary: An amazing location on Lake Michigan. Beautiful views with access to lots of activities and short drives to Grand Haven and Holland. The cottage is small and was a tight fit for the 8 of us with only outside stairs to the bottom floor.. Not real clean but did not hamper our stay.

Summary: Location is great but a little bit of a walk up and down to the beach. Renters should be aware of power plant just north of beach and that the piers belong to power company and are not accessible. Decks were beautiful, screened in porch on lower level was fantastic! Great sunsets every night. The owner stopped by to check in on us a couple times, which I would normally say is nice, but felt slightly intrusive.

Summary: Outstanding week on the beach with our family and friends. Plenty of room for sleeping, and we enjoyed several sit-down meals together as well. Easy grocery and souvenir shopping nearby. Can’t wait until we can do it again!

Summary: Six of us spent a few late October days at the cottage and had a wonderful time. Had the beach to ourselves due to the time of year, so nice to actually be able to access the water with no erosion. Sleeping arrangements worked perfectly and the screened in area was a plus. We took in the Holland Farmer's Market and loved it. Holland/Grand Haven is such a nice area. Can't wait to return.

Summary: We thorougjly enjoyed our stay! the amenities were perfect for our family of adult kids & spouses - beach volleyball, tennis courts, shuffle board and basketball were all utilized! We felt like we had a private beach and loved being able to walk to the water, our view was incredible too! would highly recommend this property and location. The owners had the house well stocked with essentials, and the property manager was so kind and helpful. Close to Holland and Grand Haven, so lots to do! we also enjoyed reading in the screened in porch on a rainy day.

Summary: This property offers an amazing view of Lake Michigan and its beautiful sunsets while also allowing easy access to a rather expansive (by 2020 standards) beach. It is an older home with some quirks but it was clean, bathrooms were very functional and the kitchen allowed for meal prep which was important during our Covid stay.
