ENJOY GRAND HAVEN & STAY IN STYLE!
In a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks on Grand Haven’s north side with luxury linens, beautifully renovated with period details, lovely hardwood floors & plenty of space. Relax & play on outdoor porches/decks & manicured lawn! Walking distance to downtown & boardwalk. (or borrow one of our bikes!)

BEACHES, FISHING, SHOPPING + MORE!
Come home after a great day at the waterfront, boating, shopping or fishing to the charm and luxury of the Retreat at 526. Located at 526 Adams, it's the peaceful vacation get-away you’ve dreamed of. One mile to the biggest beach with pleniful parking, so bring your picnic, beach chairs & toys! Closest Grand Haven location to North Shore Beach & Spring Lake.

COME & RELAX
Luxury high count cotton linens, towels & beach towels, and fresh decor all cleaned to perfection for your stay. Upstairs sleep in the quiet comfort of the large Master bedroom (QUEEN). Adjoining is a small bedroom with a cozy daybed. Family & guests will love the second bedroom (FULL). The main floor features two living rooms, pullout sofa (QUEEN) and curtains that pull across the arched doorway for full privacy. Adjoining is the Bunkroom featuring fun and comfortable bunk beds to accommodate you all (TWO TWINS) and the main floor bathroom with shower.
(2 Bathrooms!)

ENJOY DOWNTOWN!!
Walk to the marina, riverfront Boardwalk, downtown shopping, restaurants & coffee shops. Private and removed from the noise, yet close to everything. Beaches are just moments away. (I recommend driving & parking so you can take all your beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers & toys)

Or jump on one of the bikes, enjoy the sights of Grand Haven and spend your day at the pier and sandy beach. Grand Haven’s biggest and best candy and ice cream store are just around the corner as well as restaurants and shops. (…and a quick trip to Starbucks!)


With modern, comfortable, very clean indoor and outdoor living spaces, you'll join our many returning guests in loving the Retreat at 526!

                    We had a wonderful time staying at this home. It was clean and comfortable. It gave us plenty of room for our family to spread out. I love that it had two family rooms. My kids kept asking if we could always live here. This house provided everything that we needed. We loved the location. It was close to downtown and shopping but on a very quiet street. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. We will be returning to Retreat at 526.

                    Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

                    We had 3 of our families stay here, very accomidatining! The kitchen was bare bones though.. not even a salt shaker..: but this was the only disapointment. the rest of the house was well furnished. and very comfortable!

                    Owner response: Thanks for your review, Jeff. I'm glad we could accommodate you for your fun family gathering! I appreciate the comment as I will be sure to give future guests a heads-up that "fully equipped" refers to equipment. While we have a fully equipped kitchen and get our guests started with some paper products & trash liners, we do not provide food. I hope you enjoyed the many other amenities. We'd love to have you stay with us again.

                    Thank you for sharing this lovely home with us. God used you to meet our need for temporary housing, and we are so very grateful! Our kids hate to leave this house for their new one :) May God richly bless you.

                  Owner info

                  Year Purchased: 2008

                  About the owner: Liz Swanson...A native of the Chicago area, my family and I moved to Grand Haven 17 years ago and fell in love with the white sand beaches and friendly atmosphere. We knew Grand Haven was the right town for us immediately. We enjoy taking in the beauty of the changing seasons and the variety of outdoor sports and activities! 5-Star Rated Accommodations..... My husband, myself & a couple friends created the Retreat at 526 in 2008 to offer the type of cottage experience that we enjoy when we travel...the more stars the better!

                  Why the Owner Chose Grand Haven:
                  This location on Grand Haven’s north side is the perfect mix of close proximity to activities, shops & beaches, but in a terrific neighborhood on a quiet street. We were excited to find just exactly the best combination of premium location and wonderful renovation. We loved the hardwood floors, arched doorway, great floor plan and nice room sizes. (and it was in excellent condition...super clean!)
