Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2006
Gary and Cindy
We retired in 2001, and live a couple of hours from Grand Haven, needless to say we travel a lot and often to Grand Haven.
Why the Owner Chose Grand Haven
We bought a old house here in 2005 and tore if down in 2006. Starting over we built this place, we love Grand Haven and spend much of our time here. Combination of the lake and the friendly people makes it special for us.
The Unique Benefits of this House
The thing we love the most is walking (or riding bikes) everywhere in town, including to the Marina where we keep our boat.

Lovely home, with gracious hosts. Everything you could need. Our stay was on a particularly hot week, but we stayed very comfortable with AC, as well as the ceiling fans. Beautiful master suite. Wonderful kitchen layout for family meals. A short drive from the beach, but many attractions are within walking distance. I'd stay again!

We had such a wonderful time in Grand Haven. When we stepped in the door to this immaculate, stylish, comfortable home, we were so thrilled. After shopping at the nearby farmer's market, we had many delicious meals in the spacious kitchen and even some out on the deck. The house was large enough for all 5 of us (my husband, toddler, and I, plus my parents). It was close to all the shopping, dining, our boa slip, and playgrounds. The beach was far enough away that we needed to drive, but parking isn't difficult to find in Grand Haven. We can't say enough about the home and have already been discussing our return trip.

Our family visited Grand Haven for the first time this past weekend. We were vey impressed with everything the area had to offer for both are older and younger children. This house was so updated and yet still quaint. The house was very clean and VERY well decorated. This house was a convenient walking distance to the beach, downtown, the marina, and dining. We're already planning are next trip there!

We had an amazing experience in Grand Haven!! The house was beatiful... very clean and inviting!! We thoroughly enjoyed the gourmet kitchen as well as the private backyard. The location was wonderful for walking downtown to the shops and restaurants. It was the perfect setting for our 'first' family vacation and hope to make it back soon!!

We had a lot of fun in Grand Haven. The house is very nice and in a great location. We enjoyed walking to Chinook Pier and downtown and the boardwalk. My son took a bike with him and used it everywhere. We enjoyed spending time in the backyard sitting by the fire and roasting marshmallows.

This is a beautiful, comfortable, new, private, convenient home in GH. We immediately felt "at home" upon check in. The fenced-in yard provided security for our grandkids and privacy for use of the deck, patio, grill and s'more preparation facility (firepit.) It's only a 5 min walk to downtown & Chinook pier (2 min by bike.) Thanks, Gary and Cindy for a great vacation home.
