About this property

Beautifully redone house, fenced yard, close to beach, walk downtown, no pet fee

Welcome to my home! This is a beautilful home that has recently been redone! Two brand new bathrooms with polished floors and tiled showers.The kitchen got a nice face lift with quartz countertops and vinyl plank flooring. Every light fixture and fan in the whole house was upgraded. The backyard boasts a brand new Weber grill this summer. 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.

Great getaway

My family enjoyed our stay at this house. It was exactly as advertised. Clearly, Melinda cares about providing good hospitality. The house has had a lot of recent updates and was a good location to walk downtown. Melinda was great.

Great for family of 5 w/ dog

Really great location just a 5 minute walk to the shops and restaurants on Washington. Fenced yard was great for our dog. We have three teenaged kids and we all fit easily around the game table and the TV. Lots of nice little touches too like good quality shampoo and wireless chargers on the nightstands.

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!

Highly recommend!

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.
