This home worked well for our girls trip with 6 of us as it had plenty of room for us. The home was clean and comfortable. It was well equipped for families and large groups. The owners were very responsive and the check-in / check-out process was easy. The neighborhood was quiet and everything we wanted to do was within a 20 minute drive from the house.

Pleasant and Relaxing Stay

Quiet and convenient location for exploring Holland and the Ottawa Beach area. Bring your bike or walking shoes to explore the area as you can go for 10's of miles right out of the driveway. A fantastic restaurant, The Reservoir, is within walking distance and we visited several times.

Great location for a quiet weekend

Excellent house for a great weekend at the beach. Close in proximity to Holland Beach State Park, highly recommend biking to the park vs. driving, the line to get into the park can get quiet long, esp on the weekends. The backyard is stocked and is nice, the only thing is that the house is on a corner, and one of the streets has a speed limit of 55 MPH and there is no fence.

A comfortable and clean house with plenty of room for our family of seven. We cooked most of our meals, and the kitchen was adequately equipped for that purpose. The close proximity to fresh local produce made for delicious meals. The area offered so many fun opportunities that in five days we couldn’t do them all. I guess we will need to come back!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this beautiful farmhouse from the moment we walked in. It has so much history and beauty. This house has great vibes! We love the large yard and that it's so close to the beaches.

What makes this property unique

Our Farmhouse Cottage is a beautiful, spacious renovated farmhouse that sits on .63 acres of property, so there's plenty of room here to spread out and enjoy the large yard. It's peaceful, welcoming and relaxing and yet still so close to the beach and other amenities that you can walk.
