COTTAGES: Grand Haven, on Lake Mi 1/2 mi South of State Park $1975 Per/Week

Exceeded expectations in being a cabin but very clean and simple. Lots of tvs, good WiFi and connectivity. Fantastic location- easy walk on beach to the pier and walk or short drive to restaurants in town. Should plan for one bathroom and that no privacy among upstairs bedrooms so a bit like camping. Wonderfully convenient and easy beach stay.

We had our first family vacation with 6 month old and 3 yr old girls. we’d like to return annually thats a huge compliment considering the master bedroom mattress was beyond uncomfortable it was Like sleeping on the ridge of a hotdog with your wife buried in the middle funny at first but then became an issue. I went downstairs and slept on the couch 2 nights out of 6. However the access to the beach and the humble neighbors more than made up for the lack of sleep as the rest of the family did sleep well in all the other rooms regardless of the heat fans helped blinds needed upstairs yet we had a blast. The location was perfect and the place was well kept with deep family roots all around. I would come back next year and send referrals as long as the mattress was replaced with a new one. long sunfilled days with the family requires proper sleep. Also the people that own it are very kind so much so I’d be whiling to donate a ceiling fan to the master bedroom in exchange for good nights sleep. The grill and kitchen was excellent for any proper cook we had some tatsy meals with easy parking to unload groceries and access to the beach for dessert. Great place don’t hesitate to rent this one out just as long as we have our week booked 😉�

81 steps to the beach with a gradual incline!. Water level was high so beach was very small. Adirondack chairs provided on the dune at the beach were very nice. Large cement pad for kids to play was great! When they say bring linens they mean bedding, towels, washcloths, bath mat and kitchen towels!! Also blankets! Kitchen had everything we needed and fridge was big. We had a great time and even saw a mamma deer and her two babies!! Road bikes to town and to State Park beach. Grand Haven is a great little town!!

The home is comfy and quaint. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived.

It's perfect for a family as you have plenty of option to keep the little ones occupied.

The large drive way with basketball hoop and grill was perfect for the kids to be outside but yet still in eyes view. And obviously the best part was the walk down to the private beach.

We just loved the views and solitude. We would defiantly recommend and hope to be back in the future.

Ps owners were great to work with. Very accommodating and response time was quick.

My children and I spent a week at this cottage. We were all very comfortable in the house and the location near the lake can hardly be beat. The beach was clean and is very close to the heart of town, so events, dining and shopping were easily accessible. With the exception of one, we found the Grand Haven shop owners and employees to be very friendly and helpful. We also took advantage of the nearby Muskegon airport for one latecomer to our trip. The airport was very close by and, though small, seemed to be well maintained and his flight arrived on time! I would recommend this location and may even book my trip for next year early.
