About the host

Hosted by Matthew Timmer

Host profile image
Born & raised in Holland, Michigan, I recently moved back "home" (I live in the cottage next door) after living in California, Seattle & Asia for the past 20+ years. You will see my wife & I during your stay as we are very active with sports, outdoor activities and of course the beach/lake.
