Fantastic vacation!

We had the most wonderful week ever! Eight adults (our family) enjoyed the house, which is perfectly outfitted, and the location is fantastic. The beach was washed out this year, so that was a little disappointing, but otherwise, an amazing week!

Lakefront Oasis

What a beautiful property! The view is absolutely stunning! Watching the sunset each night is spectacular. Walking the beach is peaceful and refreshing. They've done an incredible job of keeping the house in great shape, it's simplicity yet timeless decor, allows the opportunity to enjoy, sit back and relax! Hard to believe it's in Michigan!

Still the most Fantastic vacation!

Just another note - the home was too beautiful and the beach was actually fine - we had professional photos taken on it, so there was plenty of beach to enjoy. The beach was delightful - we could still take long walks and built sandcastles! Don't miss this amazing property. We have the most wonderful memories from our trip!!

Beautiful lakeshore retreat

This property is a special gem! From the beautiful lakeshore scenery to the simple clean open floor plan, it is a great space for family and friends to come together! The owners are great to work with, always accommodating and friendly. Love the comfort of the home, from sleeping to cooking in the kitchen, playing games and lounging indoors or outdoors taking in the view...it's hard to beat! Thanks for blessing us with a beautiful getaway! We'll be back!

One of a kind Gem!

This luxurious property is a one of a kind! It is nestled back in a short scenic drive off of Lake Shore drive in a beautifully wooded area, with a picturesque view of Lake Michigan. The house is spacious and well laid out. It is well kept and the grounds are so beautiful. There are so many sweet nuggets which we enjoy....the back porch for morning coffee or watching the breathe taking sunsets, the screen porch for reading or conversing with friends, the kitchen is ideal for cooking, the basement is spacious and has a great entertainment/game area and the master bedroom is a retreat in itself with a lovely nook to read and enjoy the spectacular scenery! All the bedrooms are spacious and clean. Bedding and amenities are of great quality. The private beach in front is great for walks or there is a trail on Lake Shore for walking, running, biking or hiking. Honestly this is and was a great fit for our family and we created many good memories! Look forward to visiting again in future!!

What a Special place to us!

We have traveled all over the world and this is definitely one of our favorite places to stay! The accommodations are priceless! The interior decor is straight out of a magazine. The views from every room are breathtaking and majestic. It is surreal to wake up to every day and to enjoy spectacular sunsets each night. We feel at home with all the amenities of the house. The owners are a pleasure to work with, very helpful and gracious in sharing such a beautiful home. They have kept it so clean and accommodating to all of our needs. We have stayed both in summer and fall. We thought it couldn't get any better than the summer months with the great private beach and Lake Michigan waters to enjoy, but the Fall was absolutely stunning! The colors of the changing of the seasons, was picturesque! We even walked for miles on the beach, it was beautiful! We love the location as we go into Grand Haven, Holland and over to Spring Lake to enjoy shopping, dining and activities. There are so many great restaurants and shops in both Grand Haven and Holland. We always are sad to leave as it is such a special retreat to us! We have many fun family memories here and hope to continue to rent through out the years!

Such a SPECIAL place! Absolutely AMAZING!!!

BEST VACATION EVER!!! WOW! This home is so beautiful. It's exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The landscaping is gorgeous and very well maintained and the view....WOW - it's amazing! It takes your breathe away. The owners have gone above and beyond to provide every amenity imaginable. You get lulled asleep by the crashing of the waves each night...it doesn't get better! You have a huge stretch of your own private beach to enjoy and the owners have provided all beach items as well (umbrellas, comfy chairs, beach toys, etc). This home is also ideally located. Very close to downtown Grand Haven and also close to Holland. Many wonderful restaurants, ice cream parlors, grocery stores just minutes away. We have stayed in this spectacular home for the past 2 years and will be heading back again this year. It holds so many wonderful memories there for us. It is SO difficult to leave each time. No need to head out of the country for an amazing vacation. You can search the world over and not find another place like this! Janice - Thank you for allowing us to rent each year! We feel so grateful to have found such a special place for our family to visit each year!

Fabulous home on Lake Michigan

The house was perfect, even nicer than shown in the pictures. The beach this summer (2022) was plenty large, and there were plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, and toys to keep everyone occupied. The beds and linens were very comfortable, and the house was immaculate when we arrived. The owner was available by phone as needed. We hope to return in the future!

Amazing house

My sisters and I rent a house every year somewhere in Michigan. The house has to accommodate my 7 sisters, myself and my mother. So it is necessary to have enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all. This house has been our favorite so far. It did not disappoint!. The pictures show the beauty of the house and location. The sound of Lake Michigan at night was amazing. My mom was so pleased with the location and we were able to watch the sunset every night. The kitchen is so well equipped that we cooked every meal. Will definitely look at returning in a couple of years.

Amazing!!!!!!

This house is perfect! Large light filled rooms, everything you need and 45+ steps down to the most lovely sandy “beach”. The beach is small and disappears at high tide but the water is lovely and a shirt ride there is an entrance to a larger beach, via a state park. Grand Haven is cute and Morning Star Cafe is a FABULOUS breakfast destination!!!!!

Paradise on Lake Michigan

I do not believe there is a more beautiful property on Lake Michigan than your home! We had a Girl’s Surprise Birthday Getaway that was Amazing! When the ladies walked thru the front door they were severely Wowed! One of those Aha moments! We had a total pampering experience! The entire lake side of the home is all glass so we had endless views of the beautiful lake from every room. The breezes off the lake were so refreshing. The grounds were impeccably maintained. The flowering plants were in bloom which made it more of a paradise! The home was spacious, beautifully decorated and clean. The entire property reminded us of being in The Hamptons! I recommend this property to everyone and look forward to staying here again! Janice was always available for questions and willing to do anything she could do to help! She is a Wonderful Host!

Beautiful home and location!

We stayed at this beautiful West Olive home right on Lake Michigan the first week of September, 2019. The sunsets were stunning, and the yard was so beautiful with lots of room for our grandchildren to run and play! Only about 20 steps down to the beach where we all enjoyed the late summer Lake MI water. The owner, Janice and the property manager, Steve were both there at check in to show us around and answer any questions we had. They were great to work with! Really enjoyed our stay!!
