About this property

Updated Family Beach Cottage-100 yds to Beach/Game Room/Fire Pit

Welcome to The Cottage at Riley Beach! Our spacious and updated beach cottage sleeps 12 with a large and open floor plan. Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on the deck, listening to the waves of Lake Michigan. Walk the short, sandy path to the beach and spend your days playing in the water with your family or relaxing on the sand. Return to the beautiful cottage for a family meal or check out some of the local restaurants just minutes away. End your day with a campfire in the peaceful backyard while listening to the waves.

Lots to do in the area for fall and winter including hiking, biking (bikes included), apple picking, cross country skiing, down-hill skiing and snowshoeing. Make a cozy fire in the outdoor firepit while listening to the waves or play some family games around the indoor fireplace. And don't forget about the game room in the garage!

BEACH: The path to Riley Beach is located right at the edge of our property. The path is about 100 yards long and takes you to the top of the dune. Riley Beach is a public beach with limited parking so it is typically pretty quiet. It's where the locals tend to go to avoid the crowds at other beaches. There's a beautiful view of the water at the top of the path and then several private areas to sit and enjoy the beauty of Lake Michigan. Head down to the water for lots of fun! Keep in mind that you need to walk the path up and over the dune to get to the beach. It’s so worth it!

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THE COTTAGE: Growing up in Holland, we spent most of our summers at Lake Michigan. After moving to Florida, we always wanted a place where we could spend time with our extended family and enjoy the lake! The Cottage at Riley Beach is just that! We love the easy access to the beach and the peacefulness around the cottage. It's just what we were hoping for--a place to enjoy family, the lake and get away from it all! Just minutes away are some of our favorite spots (Captain Sundae, Lolo's, Sandy Point Restaurant...) and the bike path is perfect for the family. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

*Please be aware that Lake MI water levels are cyclical and are high right now. This makes the sandy path to the beach a bit steep but totally worth it. If you have guests in your party with mobility issues, we recommend Holland State Park for beach access.

Great summer trip

We enjoyed our stay here very much for our family trip to Michigan. Check in was very easy and the beach access right outside of house made it very convenient for our kids. The game room in the garage was perfect to entertain our kids as well. The house came with all the beach chairs, beach toys, boogie boards, and etc as well. We will definitely be back when available!

This place is a gem! Wonderful location; perfect place for our three generations of family staying together. Such a close walk to the beach (although the climb back through sand is steep but doable if you are even moderately mobile and even the toddlers were able to walk it). Definitely worth the work for the beautiful beach. House is clean and plenty of places for retreat and relaxation inside and out. Family room/kitchen area is great for hanging out, dining, watching tv together. Kitchen well-equipped and garage game room is so fun for all ages. Easy check-in and check-out. Plenty of parking for our family’s four vehicles. We loved it and are grateful for the fun memories made here together!

Holland Vacation

The home was very comfortable, and the children just loved the garage activities. The adults loved the bicycles. Access to the beach is incredible. And the host had chairs and toys and towels! We cooked most of our meals and found the kitchen to be well stocked. We enjoyed the fire pit and picnic table. It was a short drive to everything we wanted to see.

Beautiful house with everything you need.

We had a great vacation. The house has everything you need (and more!). The location is close to downtown Holland, Ottawa Beach, a wonderful bike/walking path, and of course has its own beach just steps away. The beach path would be difficult to traverse with those who have mobility issues, but our group didn’t have any issues. The house is very clean, beautifully decorated and has lots of toys and books for little ones which was a welcome surprise for our two toddlers. We highly recommend this rental!

A great beach home for family!

My family (5 adults, 3 kids- ages 13, 10, and 8) spent the week at this lovely home. The description on the listing perfectly matched the home. We appreciated the size and all the extras (game room, beach chairs and toys, bikes, etc). We also loved that it was close to lots of places we wanted to visit. The home is right by a public beach as well, which was very nice. Just be aware, it is a bit of a hike to get over the dune to it. We had 2 adults with us with mobility issues and they were not able to access the beach. However, they both still loved the home! It was a great home with no issues!

Great location and excellent service!

We had planned a family gathering in Saugatuck but last minute found out it was double booked. I found this cottage days before we had our reunion. The owners went out of their way to help us with last minute reservation. Their cottage was newly remodeled and fully stocked. The location was perfect. We only had a short walk to the beach and we enjoyed swimming everyday. We also had fun playing ping pong in the garage and bonfires in the evening. The kitchen was perfect for big groups. We appreciated the extras that were provided like lawn chairs, air pump and laundry detergent. We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great getaway!

A Great Time in Holland, MI

This was our first family vacation in Holland. With my wife, 2 young boys, and my in-laws, this home was perfect for us. We especially enjoyed the firepit, the garage full of games (ping-pong, foosball, air hockey), beach chairs and toys, and a ready to use Roku for some chill time. The kitchen is fully stocked and they even had some firewood available for us. We didn't access to the beach right next to the house because of the high water (there wasn't much beach there) but we were able to get a perfect spot on the large beach in Holland State Park just down the road. We spent most of our days there. They have plenty of beach chairs at the house you can take with you. We even used the bikes one day to ride down to the beach. This house has everything. We are already planning to come back next year!

Our stay for our daughters wedding week

This house was perfect for our family! We were staying in Holland for my daughter’s wedding. We had 10 adults, 2 young children and a 1 year old. There was plenty of sleeping space and room for all of us to stay here comfortably. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed, the kitchen / living room area was great for all of us to eat and gather, we were able to set up yard games in the front lawn and we had a wonderful evening around the fire pit one night. The game tables in the garage were enjoyed by all of us and we also used some of the many board games and puzzles provided in the house. The private Lake Michigan beach access was great and a beautiful spot for sunset pictures! (A little challenging to climb the sandy dune area for us “older folks” but worth the effort! My daughter’s wedding photographer and videographer took some pictures in the sunroom of the house and out on the deck area and they proved to be a pretty backdrop. I would highly recommend this house for a family vacation and would definitely stay here again! The home owner was wonderful to work with and to communicate with too! A plus anytime you stay at a VRBO!

A well-stocked vacation home

This property has been tastefully renovated and has everything you might need while on vacation. Our family enjoys cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed to produce our meals. There are numerous board games and puzzles and the garage has ping pong and foosball (the air hockey didn't work very well). There was also ladder golf for the yard, which we used and enjoyed. There are also bikes, which we made use of on several occasions since you can bike all the way to Lake Macatawa (about 4 miles) on a sidewalk path. The path to the beach is quite beautiful but there was no level beach area due possibly to the higher water levels of the lake. The sloped beach area is limited and some days was quite crowded. Probably the biggest disappointment for me was that the parking for the beach area is off-street right in front of the house and thus there were cars coming and going sometimes into the wee hours of the night. A highlight for us was going to the Holland Bowl Mill and getting a tour of how the wooden bowls are made. Overall, we had a very nice stay at this home.

Holy Holland

This house and location exceeded our expectations! The house is super clean and comfortable (including beds). The host has went out of their way to ensure an entertaining stay. Lots of games for inside and out. The house came with plenty of board games and the garage housed air hockey and ping pong along with others! They had toys to play in the sand and a ton of beach chairs. They also provided a ton of beach towels. They also provided yard games such a corn hole and others. The bikes were also a wonderful touch. Plenty of bikes for our group of 8. We took two bike rides along the paved sidewalk along Lakeshore Drive. It was nice to see all of the beautiful homes along the way. The house has a wonderful fire pit area and deck. We enjoyed these areas most mornings and nights. I also appreciated the Bose speaker to have music at the fire pit. The house is extremely close to the beach. It is steep to get down and up, but most people could make it. My elderly grandparents and mom didn't try it, but Holland State Park (right down the road), and Windsnest Park have easier access points. Windsnest is beautiful! Nice little playground area and clean restrooms. The beach is beautiful. The host provided us with all of this information. Thank you! We really enjoyed Crust 54 pizza as well. We really enjoyed our time at the house! My only suggestion to those coming is to bring a few more washcloths :).
