The location of this home is awesome. Just about anywhere you’d like to visit near the beach, can be done by walking/biking from the rental property. We truly enjoyed are stay, and are considering rebooking this home for next year’s Soccer in the Sand Tournament! Thanks for the stay!

Spring Getaway
Unfortunately the last day of our stay was nonstop rain so we went home early. We are in our early 70’s and both of us have a lot of arthritis so the only bathroom downstairs was an issue as well as the bed being uncomfortable. Younger people may not find this as a problem. The location has way too much traffic since it’s on the road to the beaches. We stayed here before the beaches were open. In the summer it must be bumper to bumper traffic. The house location is walkable to the beaches and restaurants which is great for families just not senior citizens.

Weekend getaway
We enjoyed everything about our stay. The house is in the perfect location. We parked our car on Friday and didn’t get back in until we left on Sunday. There’s easy access to the bike trail behind the house. It was about a 1/2 hour walk to the beach and just minutes from downtown. The house was very clean. She has a lot of extra “just in case” items like a baby gate and high chair, extra patio chairs, kitchen items, etc. The back yard is very relaxing but we mostly sat out front and watched the people go by. Very friendly neighborhood. Would stay there again.

Perfect little house
The house was the perfect little place for our family vacation. We enjoyed it very much. We especially enjoyed the bikes. It was so fun riding around Grand Haven. We made full use of the kitchen and found it to be very well stocked with everything we needed to make yummy food. The house was clean and comfortable. Thank you for hosting us. We will definitely be back!

Fam trip to GH
This was our second trip to Grand Haven. This time, we brought our two adult daughters. We spent more time out back, which has been beautified into an outdoor oasis. Loved the pergola, seating areas, and fire pit. Location wise, easy walk to downtown where all the action is. Downside is that the home sits on the main roadway, which can get quite noisy at all hours of the day. We never really sat on the front porch for this reason. Inside, the rooms are quite cramped, especially the bedrooms. None of us unpacked our suitcases and literally lived out of them throughout the week. The home appears new from the outside, but once inside, the layout lets you know that it’s quite a bit older. The stairway winds and is narrow, which makes it a bit tricky using the only restroom on the first floor when nature calls in the middle of the night.

Good location
Great location to walk to downtown grand haven. Kitchen was well stocked with all your needs. There were a lot of ant on the front porch couldnt really sit out there as they were crawling on the furniture. Cleaning company and owner lacked some in needs for the amount of people we paid for. Example only got 2 bath towels for 6 people and no sheets were given for the pull out couch. Owner sent the cleaning company over the next to provide.

Charming and Accommodating
This little house was perfect for our family of four. It is just a couple blocks from downtown and on the main street that takes you to everything. The owners have thought of everything including beach chairs, bikes, and a lovely backyard sitting area. The house backs up to a walking trail. We are a very active family and thoroughly loved what Grand Haven had to offer and we’d come back to enjoy a nice comfy living room to watch movies and relax. We’d highly recommend!

Great location!
You couldn’t pick a more convenient location! Close to shops, beach, musical fountain, everything we wanted to hit. With that comes the busy street it’s on which was not ideal for noise or privacy. Place itself was clean, comfortable and had a lot of perks like smart tv’s, grill, outdoor area etc. to enjoy. Great appliances throughout which was handy. Thanks for hosting us!

Close to the action!
This property is one block from Grand Haven downtown. You can walk to the Musical Fountains, the social district ( a cordoned off street where you can walk around with drinks) a 2 mile drive to public beach of Grand Haven State Park. 10$ per day / a smaller area that’s free which fills up. If you want a “ quiet retreat” in the lovely backyard, it is not. There is a lot of car noise traffic directly in front. We enjoyed our stay. If you cook, as we do, bring a 11 by 13 . They have newer pans. Coffee is Keruig and 4 cup coffee maker.

Great stay!
This house was perfect for us (husband & I, plus three young kids including a newborn). Communication with Leia was great. The house is snug but met all of our needs and was very clean. We loved that there were bikes on site, and the backyard was perfect for us. You can't beat this location - it truly was perfect for us with young kids, as we could easily walk the kids less than ten minutes from home and be at the harbor, splash pad, put put gulf, a park, and the social district. We would definitely stay here again. The only downside is the business of the street out front, but it was quiet enough at night.

This was the perfect place or a girls weekend for my mom's birthday. It was in walking distance of downtown, perfect for morning walks. We were delighted with the farmers market on Saturday morning. The neighbors were soooo nice and we spent waaaay too much money at the Purple Rose boutique across the street! We loved this getaway and cannot wait to come back.
