About this property

Macatawa Lake View Cottage by State Park and Bike Trails

Our cottage is located right on Lake Macatawa and just down the road from the Holland State Park.---Walk, hike, run, bike, or drive to the park entrance, which is less than a mile away or go 5 miles in the other direction to shop and get something to eat in downtown town Holland.
Our Yellow Cottage is perfect for family fun-all the amenities to make your stay easy--dishwasher, washer/dryer, two bathrooms, and a fabulous view of Lake Macatawa. There's plenty of parking for your guests too, and a 2-stall garage for your car and 'extra' items. We supply a few bikes for your use or if you prefer, bike rental is available within a few blocks of our cottage. Enjoy watching all the lake activity from the back yard and end your night sitting with family and/or friends around the campfire.
You are welcome to use the grassy park next door to this cottage which has steps going into the lake but due to high water no longer has a sandy beach.

The house was cozy and the view out the back was amazing. It was super clean and well supplied. The beds weren't as comfortable as we'd hoped for and despite the many fans it got quite warm.

The most wonderful place for our family. The weather was cool On Sunday when we arrived but each day got warmer. Every sunset was different and we enjoyed each one down at Lake Michigan. I was up most mornings at 6:45 to enjoy each sunrise. As the week went forward all joined me the last morning to watch the beautiful sunrise! Getting out taking walks climbing Mt Pisgha it was all wonderful. The size of the house worked so well go us. With having a 6 month old!! Thanks so much for the cute nostalgia throughout the house. Brought back memories of my sister in laws home that we spent many holidays at her home!! Perfect for us!

The home had a great location with beautiful views and the owner was very responsive. A few things were a disappointment as they differed from the listing. There was only AC in 1 bedroom and 1 living space and windows in the other rooms did not open. There was only 1 shower despite the listing showing 2. The appliances were very old with the dishwasher not being operational and there were no instructions left for it and apparently it was to hook up to the sink but there was not a hose provided to do so. The tvs and wifi did not work and the toilet in one of the bathrooms leaked leaving a large puddle on the floor.
