About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Walk downtown, close to the lake, pet friendly with no pet fees!

You're renting an entire house that has been nicely remodeled and has granite countertops and a walk in tiled shower. You're a 5-10 minute drive to the beach and a ten minute walk to downtown. Everything in the house was brand new in 2021 including hybrid mattresses on every bed, all new furniture, linens, towels, rugs, dishes and cookware. It is set up for a simple cookout or a full on holiday meal with an extremely well stocked kitchen. In the summer it will be stocked with everything you need for a great day at the beach including towels, chairs, beach toys and floaties and even a wagon to haul them in. You can't go wrong staying here! Just bring your clothes!

Two upstairs bedrooms with a king and full bed. Two downstairs with a built in queen and four bunk beds. Bathroom on each floor.

Return Visit - Great Property!

This was our second stay at this property, and we loved it! We had a group of 6, and had tons of space. The hosts have thought of all of the little details (e.g., lots of outlets, phone chargers, K-cups, wine glasses, beach toys) to make the stay extra special. The home is very clean, and the porch is great! Will definitely return.

Charm Galore!

This home is beautiful and charming. It’s very functional with lots of character. The beds were comfortable with Lovely cotton bedding and lots of pillows. The bathrooms are large, with wonderful showers. We didn’t need/use the tub but I imagine kids would love it. Loved the open kitchen - it had everything we needed. The location is in walking distance to fun shopping, restaurants and beautiful walks along the river and harbour. Melinda is an excellent host, quick to answer any question. We will definitely return. So glad to find such a wonderful dog- friendly home.

Fabulous Home

We have been staying in Grand Haven for 20 years! Our family loved this home, first time ever we felt like we were home. The owner has thought of everything! The house is beautifully designed, well stocked (kids were thrilled with all the beach toys) as far as kitchen needs, beach equipment. One doesn’t have to bring a thing except a swimsuit and some groceries. Can’t wait to come back!!! Communication with owner was impressive! She’s really on top of things.

Spacious house, clean, plenty of surface to store items, hang items, set items down. Well stocked kitchen, no need to run out and buy anything- everything you need is there. It was a quick trip, traveling with children and dog, and we had a very nice stay.

Family weekend

This is a very nicely renovated older home In a residential neighborhood. The owner's attention to detail and cleanliness was impressive. The pantry was stocked with spices and cooking oil. The showers were stocked with shampoo and body wash. The beds were comfortable And the beach gear was ample. The only surprise was the downstairs bed which was higher thanexpected with 2 steps to get up to it. Find for younger folks. A bit challenging for those over 65. We would definitely return.

Great location, great extras, beautiful home

Myself, my husband, my teenage daughter, college son, and our dog stayed here. I wish we could’ve stayed a lot longer! We were in town to move our son back to Grand Valley State U. The entire home including the basement, was spotless. The home really does have everything you need. Besides salt and pepper, there were several different spices available to cook with. There is a blow dryer in each bathroom. There is a phone charger by every bed. Plenty of toilet paper, towels, and even shampoo/conditioner. We all slept great. The mattresses seemed new. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to go to the beach.. but if we would have, everything we needed was there. This is a very nice home with beautiful decor. There is a Culver’s, Jimmy Johns, a gastro pub/grill, and an ice cream shop a block away. Melinda was friendly and easy to reach. We enjoyed our short stay and hope to stay there again!
