Great property. Clean and amazing views. Lots of space for everyone. Around 60 stairs to beach. Not a big deal. Improvements: more/heavier blankets . On hot days the air conditioning can’t keep up due to the sun. Curtains/shades on the large west facing windows needed.

Cozy cottage in fabulous location

We really enjoyed our stay - the house was perfect for our group (4 adults and 5 children). The location just off the beach is really convenient for families with children. Making s’mores at the fireplace in the backyard while watching the sunset was a wonderful.

Lovely beach front stay

This place is a great place for a small family gathering. We had two families (5 kids total) and it was the perfect amount of space. The views of the sunset and personal beach access were wonderful. The stairs down to the beach are steep and loooong, but well worth it once you are on the sand. We hope to come again!

Just like the photo

This lake front location lets you look at Lake Michigan day and night, and swim on a beach that is better than any beaches I've been on in California and Florida. The cottage is excellently furnished, especially the kitchen, which can often be lacking in a rental. The beds are comfortable. This is a special place.

Great location, property is a bit dated

You're on private beach in Holland - it's a terrific location, and the view is incredible. Property has some quirks - the lights flicker when the microwave or coffee machine are running, the showers are difficult to operate and temperature is quite difficult to get comfortable. However, it's a great spot for a weekend getaway to the beach. The fire pit and chairs out back are a lot of fun.

Michigan lakefront house

The house has a nice Michigan lake view. The kitchen is updated. Upstairs bathroom needs update. To go down to the lake you need to claimb down 86 steps. Because of the land errosion there is not a lot of beach area. Owner needs to install a fence to make it safe for kids. Overall we enjoy our stay.

The house has been updated. All the beaches on Lake Michigan have significant erosion, but we have a seawall as well as steps. The beach condition was fully disclosed as to the size and shape, it can change daily. I am not sure where a fence is warranted since the stairs go directly to the beach and there are handrails on both sides

Cute little cottage with a beautiful view

My family enjoyed our week at this property. The stairs to the beach have seen better days but we’re sufficient to get down to the beautiful private beach. Public access is next to the property which was a bit of a downside. The cottage itself was adequate and clean. Few quirks that were obvious no one actually lived there and this is just a rental. Property had all necessary supplies and even extra beach chairs and floats. Basement had ping pong table and other games which were perfect to keep kids entertained on rainy days. Property management was responsive when there was an issue with trash pick up and lightbulbs. Overall we were very satisfied with this property.

Beautiful view and great location

Outside of the house is not very attractive and there is some deferred maintenance. The inside is very nice with comfortable beds, pillows and linens. The kitchen is well stocked and very nice. The basement is unfinished but is a great hangout spot with a ping pong table and a foosball table with 3 couches for lounging. The outside area is wonderful for cooking out, bonfires and watching the sunset. The beach is fabulous. The stairs to the beach are steep and not for people that have trouble getting around. The bath towels were left in the dryer for us to retrieve and fold. The bathtub needed to be cleaned a little more. The owner was very receptive and apologized for the cleaning crew. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful view

We had a great time at this rental. It was very clean, the check in process was easy and it had lots of towels! The beach is much bigger this summer as I understand it,and we had planty of space to play in the sand. The steps are many, but easy! If we had questions the owner responded in a timely manor. Some things to note about the house, Basement is unfinished but clean and included a washer and dryer, a bathroom with portable room divider. The Keurig is simple to use, unlike one review that stated otherwise.There are not many sand toys for little kids but we did bring a few just in case. Lots of floaty rafts and such for water. Beach chairs and a great fire pit. Main floor is updated, light do flicker when washing machine or dryer is on. Owner is aware and addressing this. Showers are a bit tricky to get the water to a temperature and have it stay consistent. Overall everything was fantastic and it was a relaxing atmosphere! Would love to visit again!

This property was excellent for price/location. It was also one of the only places that would book us for a Wednesday -Monday. We had a group of adults traveling in from all over the U.S. for a family wedding. Just minutes to downtown Holland. The house has had some obvious upgrades which were great. The view was amazing and there was plenty of outdoor seating. We really only had a couple of issues, but they did NOT ruin our trip in any way…. No beach towels (we purchased 4 and left them). Outdoor stairs on the house and especially heading down to the beach were weak and wobbly. Should be next upgrade in my opinion. Lastly the “full bath” in the basement: It only has a free standing screen for privacy. No walls.Overall, if you’re looking for a laid back beach vacation with easy access and a great location at a good price, this is it. Nothing really fancy, but comfortable. I would recommend.

Spectacular view, nicely updated interior

When you walk into the cottage, you see a panorama of Lake Michigan through sliding glass doors. It's a view that never grows old. The house is recently renovated; it's enjoyable to spend time in it. It is comfortable and furnished with everything that's needed, from kitchen equipment to beach toys. We contacted Vicki, the host, about a neighborhood power outage and a deck umbrella that snapped in high wind. She was very responsive. You can't go wrong here.

Fantastic sunsets

Very clean, newly renovated house right on Lake Michigan. With the lake levels dropping a bit the beach is wide with lots of space. Long stairs down, not steep but long. One thing to note is that when we visited the coffee maker is a K-cup machine, and not a friendly one! Otherwise everything was great - being able to enjoy lunch/dinner on the deck, and being close to Holland.

Girls getaway

We had a great time at The Beach House. Beautiful sunsets over the lake. The house was very clean and comfortable. It was a perfect location close to town, yet quiet and secluded. The only thing we noticed is there was limited kitchen towels and no wash cloths in the kitchen and bathrooms. We made do, but for future guests it might be helpful to have them provided. We definitely will keep this on our list for future visits.

Family vacation

We had a great time at this property. Nice updates inside. The beach can be challenging to get to but we were fully aware of the stairs and water level prior to booking. Victoria was very responsive when needed. There is a marina nearby to rent water craft to enjoy lake Michigan as well, but we mostly stayed at the home enjoying the view, sunsets and quiet of the area. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Expansive Lakefront with amazing sunset views

Broad lakefront with captivating views and plenty of seating on deck and lawn from which to enjoy it. Spacious lawn for activities with lots of shade. Main areas of the home are recently updated and beautiful done, with well- appointed kitchen including Ninju blender and Keurig Supreme. Quiet area. Due to high water levels, beach is small but clean and sandy bottom makes for great swimming. Would book again.
