About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Walk to downtown, pet friendly, wonderful fenced yard, drive to the beach!

Welcome to my home! This is a great home with lots of updates including an open floor plan with newer appliances. It is fully stocked with very nice linens, towels and mattresses. The kitchen has everything you need to make your favorite meal or just relax with a glass of wine. You can have a great cookout with the gas grill and eat outside on the deck. You can build a fire in the firepit this summer with wood provided and roast hotdogs and marshmallows with the kids. The shed has everything you need for a fun day at the lake including beach chairs, a beach wagon, multiple floating swim devices and cooler bags to pack a picnic lunch as well as chairs to sit around the fire pit. The back yard is fenced in entirely to keep your dog or children safe and to provide you with privacy. You are a mile from the lake and a quick bike ride or walk downtown to great shops and dining. Come enjoy! I'll do everything I can to make your stay great .

Of note, all three bedrooms are upstairs in this home.

Comfortable, clean house
We enjoyed our stay in your lovely house. Well stocked, and had a wonderful backyard for our beagle to sniff. Not a house for anyone with mobility issues, as the stairs are steep. But we did fine, and enjoyed our stay. We were here for a wedding at Central Park, and it was an easy walk! Thanks for a nice stay!

Wonderfully unexpected
If you are looking for a clean, fully loaded, perfectly located little abode look no further! This home has it all and everything you forgot- inside was clean comfortable for our family of 6 children’s ages 16-15-11-4, the games were a great touch to keep all ages engaged and off their electronics. The beds were all comfortable! The recliner was a hit!! Outside the dogs could run and play fetch, we sat around d the fire I. The evenings roasting snores and laughing. Walking to the lake was easy with the kids and dogs. Our avid runner was able to run for miles and stay entertained. Overall this was a wonderfully unexpected family fall get away! Thank you!

We had an amazing time in grand haven thanks to our stay here. The house was clean and so adorable, but it was all of the little touches that made it such a nice weekend. Melinda has really thought of anything you might need. There are chargers by the beds, dog bowls, s’mores supplies, etc. cannot recommend this home enough!

Well-Appointed Home in a Great Location
Our family of six was very comfortable in this well-appointed home. We took advantage of all the amenities including the grill, fire pit, storage unit full of beach toys, boardgames, and fully stocked kitchen. The house seemed recently updated and was tastefully decorated. The bedding was comfortable and even the bunk beds had quality mattresses. The host provided a detailed welcome book to help us navigate all the features of the home and set clear expectations for check-out. We also enjoyed being able to walk to shopping and restaurants. Will definitely stay here again if we are ever back in Grand Haven!

Nice house, great location, great homeowner
Very nice house. Has all the amenities you’d need. Dogs are welcome so that’s really important to us. Location is excellent…about three+ blocks walk and you’re on the main drag (Washington) for food, shopping, etc. about a mile and a half walk to the pier so we like to do that a lot. Short drive to state park beach. We come here every year and love the house. Homeowner communicates frequently to ensure all is well. Highly recommend.

Family Weekend
The house was fully stocked with all you need, kitchen items, towels, sheets, blankets, and beach gear. Only a short walk to the downtown area and the boardwalk to the beach. Our sweet dogs loved the fenced in back yard too! Perfect place to spend the weekend with my family and our pup’s. Thanks for the great space. :)

I wish I could give it 10 stars!
This is such an amazing upscale rental. The owner responds to messages within minutes. Sooo many wonderful things are provided for you, everything you need for the beach, everything you need to cook a meal (even a rice cooker!!) blue tooth speaker, firewood, I could go on and on. Clean, comfortable beds and furniture, dining seating for 10 (and 10 more if you use outdoor deck!) such a quiet neighborhood and beautiful backyard, completely fenced and secure for pets!! Large driveway that we fit an SUV and another vehicle into easily. We’ve already booked it again for fall!

Grand Haven Winter Getaway
Lovely, clean, completely updated house right downtown for a winter getaway. Everything we needed for our family of 5 - as well as a six month old lab puppy (which was such a privilege to be able to bring with us). Comfortable beds. So close to everything allowing us to walk wherever we needed, including daily morning walks to the pier. Seriously the only concern we had was the staircase - which is to be expected in an older home. People should know to bring slippers with a grippy sole as the stairwell is narrow, curved, and dark painted wood. They were concerning to navigate. If the house were mine, I would put some treads on the edges to prevent slipping. Besides that - everything was lovely and exactly as advertised. Thank you for a wonderful family stay.

Bachelorette Party Stay
Hello! We stayed here to celebrate my sister's bachelorette party in downtown Grand Haven. What a perfect weekend! I was a bit worried having not been to Grand Haven in some time, so I very much relied on the description of the listing to make sure it was a good fit. The house was beautiful, well stocked, and close to everything! It truly was a night on the town. Thank you so much for the accommodations! Everything was well thought out.

Home away from home
We have so many positives to say about this home. It was perfect size, very clean and comfortable, easy to access, plenty of supplies available for use (including beach supplies/chairs/toys), a 5 minute walk to downtown, clear instructions, fully fenced in lot which was perfect for our dogs, with a nice backyard with firepit and plenty of seating. It was really a great spot and the cleanliness and supplies made it a home away from home. It was exactly as listed and explained and we had a great time.

Wonderful Vacation Spot
The house was very clean, the towels and linens were very nice. The owners went to great lengths to add all of the things one might need while staying in this house, and while visiting the beach. The kitchen had literally everything I needed to cook with, but we chose to mostly eat out. Close to all the good shops and many great restaurants! We walked to the farmers market, just a few blocks away, and to the trolley stop that took us to the city beach. Our dog enjoyed the freedom of the fenced in yard and took walks each day on nearby trails and paved paths. We had a fire in the back yard fire pit, which everyone enjoyed. There was plenty of wood. All the appliances were newer, and in great shape. There were extra fans in the closets, but the house was nice and cool for a hot summer. We especially appreciated all the beach towels, made it easy for us to pack light.

Great house and location
A couple blocks from downtown. Walked to dinner/breakfast almost every day. Nice clean house. Great backyard. Nice fire pit although we didn’t use it. Nice touches by the owner all around the house…like wireless chargers on our nightstands, coffee - k-cups and drip, etc…just little things that made everything more comfortable and convenient. We will be booking for next year. Only negative was the stairway was a little narrow when carrying suitcases upstairs. And the stairs were slippery for our little dogs…we had to carry them up and down the stairs! But it was fine, the house was really nice.
