My husband and I built and designed this house (900 square foot) for simple/retirement living. In floor heating, mini split AC. There is a large pond that separates us and our son/neighbor. We often see wild life here. We have a small patio in the front and a bigger one in the back yard. There is a natural gas grill and firepit/ fire wood in the back yard as well. Our home is equipped with everything you would have in your own home for a comfortable stay. Close to biking, hiking, and cross country skiing, snow showing and sledding (pigeon creek and Hemlock crossing are geared for year round with skiing and snowshoeing). Pigeon river kayak and canoe access less then two miles away, connects to lake michigan. Boat launch less then 2 miles away, just punch in boat launch/ramp near me on your Google maps.

This was a great property. It was clean, well stocked, and had clear instructions for everything. It was close to beaches, Holland, and Saugatuck. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to check out that part of the state. The antique Reader's Digests were a great little touch as well.

This efficient, adorable, comfortable, and cozy home built for two, is the perfect place to spend time with nature in the yard. From the pond to the evergreen trees, or right outside the living room window, you will see a variety of birds, squirrels, fish, and a family of deer around dusk time. It is also just minutes away from many area attractions in Holland or near by towns. We saw Windmill Island and went blueberry picking at Bowerman's, a drive to the beach, and so much more! It is a wonderful place to stay!!!

This is the perfect home for a couple’s getaway! Everything is provided to make you feel right at home. The decor has plenty of character and is perfect for the house. It’s peaceful here and you can watch birds eating out of the feeder right outside the window. The host has thought of everything and leaves notes for how things work around the house. She is always available to answer questions if needed. We look forward to coming back again!!

We stayed at the cabin for one night, and it was perfect for our needs. Check-in was easy, the space was clean and neat, and very cozy. The host did a great job of communicating good local options for restaurants and activities, we really enjoyed the local farmer's market on Saturday morning. We also enjoyed the bird feeders outside the windows - we got a visit by a hummingbird in the morning! Thank you for your kindness and hospitality!
