About the host
Hosted by Jim Nutt

Rene' and I native to the West Michigan area and enjoy the all the wonderful seasons we have here. We are the proud parents of 3 boys who's schedules make it difficult to get to our "happy place", so hoping to share it with you.
Why they chose this property
We love Hess Lake because it feels like up north, but is still close to everything. Great local stores are minutes away and Grand Rapids is only about 45 minutes away. The lake has two sandbars when we feel social and an on-lake restaurant if we didn't take anything out for dinner.
What makes this property unique
The cottage has both large spaces for groups to gather and smaller spaces for those that needs some space away. Whether your preference is sun or shade, you can always find both at the shore.
According to records, our property was originally called Dadd's Inn and it has been rumored that Al Capone would stay at Dadd's Inn
