My spouse and I agreed that this is one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. The rooms were spacious with large windows and a slight view of the river. Being right by the boardwalk and downtown was wonderful. The front porch was awesome as well

When I searched hotels/suites this place came up & I am so glad to have found it. Love the fact that the bedroom is separated with a door. The whole place was very clean. I also felt very safe in this neighbor

Nice quaint cottage

The property itself was very nice. I had the upper-deck and it was very nice and quaint for myself. 1-2 block walk to downtown area. Off-season so, was wonderful and peaceful. I'm sure it's a bit more hectic in the warmer month as I also live in a small beach town. I stayed Sat and Sunday so I don't believe I there were guests downstairs.

We stayed in the "Upper Deck" suite and it was perfect for us. We loved having our coffee on the balcony with the view of the water. It was clean, comfortable, and an easy walk to the beach or main strip of town. Excellent coffee and plenty of restaurants and shops are a very short walk away while the site is peaceful and feels removed from the tourist area. It was great to have a parking spot as we liked some spots on the East side of town which is a short drive. Communicating with the innkeeper over email always got a swift response.

This was perfect! It was cute and clean. Had a small kitchenette and wonderFUL bathroom with amazing tub. We literally wanted to stay another night just for the tub. Easy check-in and check out. Close to “Snug Harbor” restaurant and that was yummy and reasonably priced! Beautiful views! I can’t say enough good things. This is certainly a hidden gem and worth it. ❤️

A lovely stay

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights as a little getaway. The cottage was comfortable and clean. The bed was comfortable as well. There was a strong smell of what we think must be burnt popcorn in the kitchenette area. It wasn’t unbearable though. The kitchenette had everything you would need to cook a small meal which was nice. The disposable coffee cups were so nice to have so we could take a coffee to-go. It was also nice to have some vanilla coffee creamers. It was nice that there were beach towels supplied so we could bring them to the beach. A couple things that I would change is to have a bigger trash bin and to add a recycling bin in the cottage. Also it would be great if the TV had a fire stick or Roku so we could have pulled up a movie to watch. There was just cable. The location of the cottage is so great! Just a short walk to the boardwalk.

Quiet and absolutely spotless. First floor accomodations. Walkable downtown community. Annie's was great for Breakfast. Grand Haven state park, beach and the lighthouses were wonderful. Looking forward to returning to this charming area to paint again soon.

Captain's Cottage is super cute! The pictures really dont do it justice. We were a block from the beach. Snug Harbour and Noto's are a must for waterfront dining. Downtown had lots to offer as well and was walking distance to CC. We had to make a trip to Meijer...also very close...and was astonished at the cleanliness and upscale feel of this store. We had a great, although too short stay, at Captain's Cottage.

The property was perfect for our 4th of July getaway. The location was ideal and walkable to pretty much everything. It was in a quiet neighborhood and the lovely front porch was an added bonus. The view of the lake was beautiful and the inside was super clean and so cute. Highly recommend!

Perfection!

Grand Haven is my 2nd home and Captain's Cottage is my 2nd home. I have stayed here many times and it's always perfect. So clean (without the toxic clean smell), very comfortable and a perfect location to downtown and the lake.

I booked property same morning 5 hours prior to our arrival. I received immediate email confirmation of my stay and that I would receive a follow up email w a code to the lock box closer to check in (3:00 pm); I checked my email 3x times in route and nothing. We arrived about 2:40 and still no email or any communication re lock box code and entry! I called the property 3 times at the number listed on Expedia reservation as well as their own website but no answer, each time leaving a VM. I called Expedia who put me on hold and attempted to reach the property, same results! Expedia gave up after another wait and attempt and offered to book me someplace else, a Best Western.. I refused since not a similar property off the beach/boardwalk area which was the attraction to booking in the first place. A competitor property next door attempted to call property mgr at a different number they had and left a msg to give me a call.. a guest staying on a lower level who I introduced myself to also called and did same.. 2 1/2 hours later while dining nearby, I received a call from Tiffany, the property check in rep apologizing that she had not noticed the reservation & didn’t have access to email for a while! Unbelievable, since there was no issues w booking the property n getting a confirmation email (which I suspect was auto generated). Who’s manning the gatehouse?? After requesting n initially refuted I was granted a 4 pm check out. That was nice but an xtremely frustrating xperience!
