Grand Haven is located on the shores of Lake Michigan. We are a quaint, little beach town recently named the "Happiest Seaside Town in America," by Coastal Living Magazine. Here, your family will find Grand Haven State Park, which was voted in the Top 10 Best Beaches in the world by Travel+Leisure Magazine. The boardwalk stretches one and a half miles, beginning at Chinook Pier and ending at the iconic red lighthouse. Historic, affordable, and amusing, the trolley is continually traveling throughout the waterfront and downtown areas dropping you off at any desired location. At the end of the day, grab a blanket to sit on and head to the Waterfront Stadium where the whole family can enjoy the Musical Fountain. This synchronized lights, water, and music show has coined the title "World's Largest." This free show plays nightly at dusk throughout the summer. Lucky for you, all of this is just minutes away and waiting for you to revel in.

Very old house with new kitchen and bathroom on main floor. Some of the finishes not done and there were visibly gaps in the wall leading to the outside which did allow some bugs in. Surprisingly the bugs weren’t as bad as I thought were going to be but there were definitely a lot. Biggest issue is no AC. The listing didn’t mention they had it so I can’t be mad about it just very surprised in a beach town to not have even window units for use. Everything else was good, clean sheets, toiletries stocked.

The cottage was in a perfect location, it was clean, it was decorated very charmingly and with care, and it was family friendly. We all loved being there. Plenty of spaces to play games and visit. We loved the wildlife and the views. The neighbors were lovely. Spending summers in Grand Haven as a child was magical. Being able to return for a second summer stay as an adult, still magical. We traveled from CA with three of our grands, a daughter and son in law. We were able to see family and value the goodness of Pure Michigan and its kind kind people. Entering the cottage was a bit stressful. We called the host, Jacqua Realtors, and they gave us a new code right away. We soon realized that there had been remodeling and freshening up since the VRBO photos. ALL lovely improvements. The property was advertised as having a washer and drying and it did not. There seemed to be a space for it. Also, some missing lighting in the kitchen and finishings to be done. The goodness outshines and we would return again. We are already talking about returning to GH next summer.
