About this property

Experience Coast Guard Festival Like a Local in a Charming Downtown Cottage

Enjoy the 10-day Coast Guard Festival in this charming and updated Craftsman cottage ideally situated along the parade route and just 5 blocks from the channel to Lake Michigan. It's a short easy stroll to the restaurants, bars and shops in downtown. Key activities during the Festival include major parades, fireworks, live concerts, a carnival, craft fair and tours of USCG vessels. Easy walk to the Chinook pier where you can charter a fishing boat. Award-winning sandy shores and boardwalk.

Savor the Lakeshore Lifestyle

When you aren’t at the festival, embrace everything that makes Grand Haven a premier summer destination:

The Boardwalk & Pier: Take a scenic 1.5-mile stroll along the harbor to the historic red lighthouses—one of the most photographed spots in the Midwest.

Award-Winning Beaches: We are a short distance from the soft sands of Grand Haven State Park, perfect for sunset viewing, volleyball, or a dip in Lake Michigan.

Local Flavor: Walk to renowned downtown eateries like The Toasted Pickle for a famous sandwich, Snug Harbor for waterfront dining, or grab a scoop at one of the 14+ local ice cream shops.

Breweries & Spirits: Sample the local craft scene at Odd Side Ales, Grand Armory Brewing, or the New Holland Brewing tasting room—all conveniently located in the downtown hub.

Book your 10-day+ stay today and immerse yourself in the patriotism, parades, and pure Michigan beauty of the Coast Guard Festival!
