INSIDE:
On the main floor, you'll find 3400 square feet of spacious, luxurious living space.

Incredible floor-to-ceiling windows surround a two-story living area with vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, and a 65" Amazon Fire smart TV. The dining room comfortably seats 10 around a custom-built walnut dining table. Additional diners can sit in the adjoining breakfast nook or kitchen peninsula. The kitchen has everything you'll need to entertain, including All-Clad cookware and small appliances like a coffee maker, blender, Magic Bullet, crock pot, air fryer, waffle maker, and more. The mudroom is great for storage and also has beach towels, sunscreen, and outdoor toys for all ages. The laundry room has a full-sized washer and dryer available for use. Detergent is provided.

Upstairs you'll find two spacious bedrooms each with king-sized beds. One of the bedrooms has a desk, and the other has a 48" smart TV. A smaller bedroom with built-in cabinetry has a twin daybed and trundle and toys and books for children. A pack-and-play and clip-on high chair are available for use as well, making this a great home for all ages.

In the basement there is a kitchenette with a sink and full-sized refrigerator. The bunkroom off the kitchenette comfortably sleeps eight. The downstairs living area has a small dining nook (excellent for puzzles or games), a sofa that folds out into a queen-sized bed, and a 55" Amazon Fire smart TV.

OUTSIDE:
You can explore the wooded property or stay close to the house which has two separate fully fenced areas. One fenced area features a camping area complete with a firepit, adirondack chairs, and a picnic table that you are free to use. Please do not use the fire pit when winds are higher than 10mph (per township ordinances).

The patio outside the sliding door of the house has a dining set for 6, a conversation area, 2 sun loungers, and a gas grill (to be attended at all times while in use).

NEIGHBORHOOD:
Though it's located in a quiet, suburban neighborhood, the home is private and very secluded and is on 10 acres of woodland. You'll likely see ducks, turkeys, and deer during your stay.

LOCATION:
This home is located just a short bike ride, long walk, or quick drive away from the sandy beaches of Holland State Park (2 miles) or Tunnel Park (1.2 miles) and a brief walk to the public boat launch on Lake Macatawa (.2 miles). Feel free to bring your boat, jet skis, kayaks, and bikes to explore all the area has to offer.

Relax on the beach, go for ice cream, or hike one of the many nearby nature preserves & trails. For shopping, dining, and entertainment, downtown Holland is a quick 10 minute drive away.

GUEST ACCESS:
You’ll have access to the entire house, except for a small owner’s closet and the garage. There’s parking for 5 cars comfortably on the driveway, or as many as 10 if double parked. Please do not park or drive in the grass--we have irrigation and will charge a fee for any damaged sprinkler heads.

HOUSE RULES:
No smoking of any kind anywhere on the property, inside or out.

No pets.

Please observe quiet hours between 9pm and 8am, and remember that sounds carry. No unregistered guests or unapproved visitors.

The grill and fire pit must be attended when in use until they are completely out. Do not use the fire pit when winds are higher than 10mph (per township ordinances).

Please do not park or drive in the grass--we have irrigation and will charge a fee for any damaged sprinkler heads.

Provided supplies are to be used during your stay only, and are not to be taken home.

Please let us know immediately if anything is broken or missing so we can fix it.

Super Stay in Holland!
This house has it all! It begins as you drive up to the house, the landscaping is just beyond. The house is beautifully decorated and filled with anything and everything you could need for your stay and then some. It was such a welcoming place to gather with our adult children. We loved the fire pit and great room. Anne was wonderful to communicate with regarding our stay. We had the best time!

Perfect getaway
Impeccable accommodations. Beautifully decorated and thoughtful design from the inside out. Awesome bonfire area. Kitchen packed with all tools needed to make a lovely meal and then some. Comfortable beds and nice pillows. Truly a gem in a serene setting. Homeowner has thought of it all. We truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone.

Great Holland Getaway Location
We had a great stay at the Bower House. It's a quick drive to the beach, but even better it's right off of access to bike/walking trails that are a 10 minute bike ride to Holland State Park or Tunnel Park (no need to ride on the road with kids). There are nearby restaurants and stores to bike to, which are awesome. The house was perfect for what we needed (2 families getting together), with plenty of space to spread out, relax, and enjoy each other's company without feeling too crowded. The room with bunk beds for kids was perfect and also had a trundle which came in handy (as we had 5 kiddos). We also loved the outdoor space for kids to run around, and fire pit was great to have. Anne is really responsive to any questions. We had a wonderful stay and wouldn't hesitate to book here again.

Family fun!
Excellent home to stay in There were 12 in my family and there were so many beds that no one had to sleep on the floor. The beach was not far away. We truly enjoyed our stay as did the grandchildren.

About the host

Hosted by Anne Bauman

Host profile image
Hi! We're Ken and Anne, and we love the shores of Lake Michigan and the little town of Holland, Michigan. We invite you to experience this incredible area and stay in our home that is almost close enough to hear the crashing waves on the sandy beaches of Holland State Park. Bring your boat, bikes, and beach toys!

Why they chose this property

This home is located on a private, secluded wooded property on 10 acres in a family-friendly sub-division. The neighborhood is very walkable and the house is only a short walk to the public boat launch on Lake Macatawa (.2 miles) or a short drive (5 minutes) to Holland State Park, and Tunnel Park. Drive just 10 minutes to the other side of Lake Macatawa to explore Downtown Holland shopping and dining!

What makes this property unique

The Bower House is close to many Holland attractions yet is completely secluded--it's a one-of-a-kind property that you must experience for yourself. Get out and explore or stay cozy at the house--you'll be happy with either decision!
