Accommodations: Country Home, 3 Bedrooms, 1.5 Baths (Sleeps 8-9)
Rosebud's Place is a fantastic get away. This is a home for those that want to be close to local attractions, yet can appreciate the peacefulness and serenity of the country. This home offers over 1500 square feet of living space. 3 bdrm, (2 queen beds, 2 twin beds, daybed with pull out trundle, portable crib, and loveseat sleeper), 1 1/2 baths, laundry room, mud room, large living room, dining room, full kitchen, and a 3 season porch. A grill station is located just off of the spacious deck.
This home has been enjoyed by four generations and continues to provide the soothing tranquility and serenity to feed the spirit. I call it my "Therapy House" because everyone who has visited Rosebud's Place is overcome by a peacefulness that is better than any professional therapy. The wildlife is amazing; the bright fall colors are vibrant; and the winters are incredible. Great area for mushroom hunters.
This retreat is secluded and sets adjacent to the Allegan State Game Area. The home is located within the Lake Michigan Shore Wine Trail. Enjoy the local festivals and wineries during the day and unwind on the 3 season porch listening to the tree frogs in the evening. Attractions in Grand Haven, Muskegon, Grand Rapids, St. Joseph and Kalamazoo are just an hour's drive.

Owner's Map of Fennville
This home has been a family hotspot since 1968. My father purchased this home as a great get away from the city. He loved the serenity it provided and the "back to nature" atmosphere. We could sit on the three season porch in the evening and listen to the tree frogs. We would sit at the kitchen table and watch the deer walk through the woods. The winters are beautiful. I always promised my mother and father that I would never let go of this place and I would keep dad's dream alive.
