Charm Galore!

This home is beautiful and charming. It’s very functional with lots of character. The beds were comfortable with Lovely cotton bedding and lots of pillows. The bathrooms are large, with wonderful showers. We didn’t need/use the tub but I imagine kids would love it. Loved the open kitchen - it had everything we needed. The location is in walking distance to fun shopping, restaurants and beautiful walks along the river and harbour. Melinda is an excellent host, quick to answer any question. We will definitely return. So glad to find such a wonderful dog- friendly home.

Fabulous Home

We have been staying in Grand Haven for 20 years! Our family loved this home, first time ever we felt like we were home. The owner has thought of everything! The house is beautifully designed, well stocked (kids were thrilled with all the beach toys) as far as kitchen needs, beach equipment. One doesn’t have to bring a thing except a swimsuit and some groceries. Can’t wait to come back!!! Communication with owner was impressive! She’s really on top of things.

Family weekend

This is a very nicely renovated older home In a residential neighborhood. The owner's attention to detail and cleanliness was impressive. The pantry was stocked with spices and cooking oil. The showers were stocked with shampoo and body wash. The beds were comfortable And the beach gear was ample. The only surprise was the downstairs bed which was higher thanexpected with 2 steps to get up to it. Find for younger folks. A bit challenging for those over 65. We would definitely return.

Great location, great extras, beautiful home

Myself, my husband, my teenage daughter, college son, and our dog stayed here. I wish we could’ve stayed a lot longer! We were in town to move our son back to Grand Valley State U. The entire home including the basement, was spotless. The home really does have everything you need. Besides salt and pepper, there were several different spices available to cook with. There is a blow dryer in each bathroom. There is a phone charger by every bed. Plenty of toilet paper, towels, and even shampoo/conditioner. We all slept great. The mattresses seemed new. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to go to the beach.. but if we would have, everything we needed was there. This is a very nice home with beautiful decor. There is a Culver’s, Jimmy Johns, a gastro pub/grill, and an ice cream shop a block away. Melinda was friendly and easy to reach. We enjoyed our short stay and hope to stay there again!
