About this property

Great for Families! Easy Walk to Downtown & Chinook Pier

This home is decorated very nicely, lots of good light. Very kid friendly. You will feel right at home! Small private fenced back yard with grill/table and seating for 6.

Three bedrooms; master with queen bed is large enough for portable crib and kids in sleeping bags. The other two bedrooms have a double bed in each.

Fully equipped kitchen (sorry, no dishwasher) and dining room allows for cooking in if you want. Large living room and a family room with pullout sofa allows to sleep 8 comfortably. Linens include beach towels to lessen your packing needs, also lots of board games.

The train track is right next to us. It comes through twice at night. Trains don't run during the day. There is always a jar of pennies at the house so the kids can place a penny on the tracks and look for it the next morning.

The charming downtown of Grand Haven is a short, walkable 5 blocks away. Shopping, great restaurants, bars and activities for kids and adults. Chinook Pier is 4-5 where you can find the marina or take the boardwalk out to the lighthouse and beach. If you go all the way to the beach, it is about a mile walk/ride.

Perfect House for Exploring Grand Haven

Renee’s house was the perfect place for a Grand Haven visit. Very clean with a kitchen fully stocked to cook a big meal. Short walk to all of the best restaurants and shops. Very quiet and comfortable at night. Would happily rent again!

Stay in Grand Haven

We needed a place for my family to stay all together. The back yard/patio was great for our dog, the bedrooms were spread out for privacy and we had easy access to a lot of restaurants and stores. The only thing I could suggest is to update the book with local activities.

Don’t Miss Out

The house was clean, roomy and in a great location to walk to town. The train only went through twice during our four day stay. Make the most of it by putting a penny on the tracks. We three 65 year old gals did.

Great getaway

We had a great stay while there for a wedding. This location is walkable to the water front and shops and restaurants. This was our first time to Grand Haven and loved how family friendly it was. We walked everywhere. The house had everything that you would need for your stay. It was a fully equipped kitchen which helps if you choose to cook. Communication with Renee was fantastic. She answered all my questions before and while we were there promptly. It was very comfortable for 2 couples.

Great! Would Stay Again!

This place was exactly what we needed as my daughter hosted her soccer camp at GHHS. Kitchen was perfect, and a lot of space for us to spread out. I was able to comfortably work remotely a few of the days and the location was great! Only heard the train once the whole week…

Great location!

Located just blocks from anything you need! 2 miles from the beach too! Pet friendly which was amazing for my dog. The owner was very nice. (if your pup is larger than the 50 lbs noted on the listing, just ask! My guy is 67 lbs) We enjoyed our stay and hope to book again in the future!

Nice Layout for Families

My multi-generational family and I loved our stay at this home during Coast Guard festival this year. It was nicely suited for my parents who stayed in the upstairs bedroom suite while myself, sister and nieces stayed downstairs. It has a small fenced in yard as well so convenient spot for my puggle to hang out in and for morning coffee. Close enough to walk to most restaurants, yet out of the busy district to have some quiet down time. Would stay here again if there's an opportunity.

Grand Haven fall color weekend

We really enjoy your house. This is our second visit. There are some maintenance items that should be addressed. The dishwasher does not work. The outdoor grill burners need to be replaced.

Better than Expected

The only negative I have to say is the listing mentioned a hot tub, and there wasn't one. The layout worked great for us- two separate sitting rooms and the bedrooms were spread throughout the house. The kitchen was a great size. We cooked every day and did not lack any kitchen items we needed to do so. It's right next to train tracks, but we only heard three all week, and those went by in mid-morning. The owner/manager was incredibly responsive to all our questions.

Grand time in Grand Haven.

My husband, sister, & I spent 3 nights in Grand Haven at this sweet house. Mostly we just slept here, didn't cook as we ate at a bunch of really tasty restaurants. However, the home is well-equipped for those who choose to cook. Comfy spaces for sitting and reading or watching TV. Nice enclosed backyard. Enjoyed our time. Only complaint was that the bed in back bedroom is not very comfortable and needed to have sheets that fit better. Renee, the owner, has been very prompt in replying to any inquiries I had. Thanks!

Good time

The house was perfect for our family. The kitchen had all we needed to cook some meals. Lots of stuff within walking distance. There is not central AC but it cooled off quickly and stayed a good temperature. Beds were all comfortable. Only one smaller tv but we didn’t need anything else. Lots of towels. An added bonus would have been a few bikes but we borrowed friends’ so that worked out. Definitely would recommend.

We had a wonderful time and the house was very cute. It was very clean and well stocked. Parking was great (it can be difficult in that area to find good parking). Its located close to many activities and to downtown Grand Haven. I would recommend this place.

Why they chose this property

In our opinion, Grand Haven is the best town along Lake Michigan. We love that the water is so close to downtown. From our house, we can walk downtown to have dinner, walk the boardwalk out to see the sunset on the lake and walk back home without having to find parking.
It is always a great day to be in Grand Haven!
