Had a great time. The check-in process was super easy, and the unit was exactly as described. This was the perfect option for the last minute getaway my wife and I decided on. The location was great as well and we walked to town each morning and just left the car on the driveway. Thanks for the great stay.

Our stay was great! Had some confusion over how to get the bathroom sink to start and stop. Great location and easy to get to, everything we needed for our stay. I overlooked that it was a duplex and the neighbors were a bit noisy one of the nights, otherwise everything was great.

Cozy stay in great location

This upstairs unit was very clean and nicely updated, providing everything we needed for a weekend getaway to Grand Haven. It was a short walk/drive to restaurants and beach, and it’s close to the downtown social area. Our host Lexi was fantastic with great communication. When I asked about recommendations, I was quickly responded to with a detailed list of not only spots in Grand Haven but nearby Muskegon too. I would definitely stay here again!

Coast Guard Weekend

We had a great experience staying at the bungalow! Location was within walking distance of restaurants and all downtown activities. The check-in process was smooth and Alexandria was great at communicating with me before and during our stay. The home was clean and updated. We are locals who wanted to stay downtown for Coast Guard weekend and I would recommend the bungalow for any friends and family visiting in the future!

Great Property and Experience

This is an outstanding rental option in Grand Haven! The newly-remodeled bungalow is well-furnished, exceptionally clean, and comfortable. The host, Alexandria, puts some thought into caring for her guests as well. In the entryway, she had beach towels and lawn/beach chairs available for use, if needed. The location is great on a quiet street in town and is within walking distance to restaurants, bars, entertainment, and the river. This is a second-floor unit, so you need to be able to go up/down stairs. But if that isn't an issue for you, this is a great place to stay! We hope to visit Grand Haven again in the future and will look to this property first.
