We have an accidental damage waiver fee attached to your booking for true ACCIDENTAL damage. You are covered up to $1500 for any breakage/ spills, damage that occurs accidently at the home. Please let us know if any damage arises and we can process the replacements or repair. In lieu of the Accidental Damage Waiver, if you would prefer to mail a $1500 check in lieu of the accidental damage waiver, you may do so as your refundable security deposit. Upon inspection of the home, we will refund the balance after deducting any damage that occurred during your stay. Please contact our office directly for details. Cleaning Fees Explained: a. Cleaning fees booked directly through Freshwater Vacation Rentals are NOT taxable. (This is a way to save you $$.) b, Even though our room rate is generally less per night during the Spring, Fall and Winter, no one wants the cleaning quality to decrease. c. We expect our cleaners to clean at the same level they would for the Peak Summer season, year-round. d. We pay our cleaners a living wage. They deep clean, wash all the linens and prep each bed, regardless of how many people are on the reservation. Perspective: a. When a couple is staying at a large house, and using only 25% of it, do they really want the home cleaned only 25%? Of course not. b. When considering how many beds will be used, there are many variables-- Who are couples? Just friends? Family? Do all couples sleep in the same bed? Who snores? c. Yes, sometimes the cleaner will make more money on your stay than the property owner or management company. It is essential to keep the space fresh and consistently cleaned throughout the year.

Jan 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Winter weekend getaway This was the perfect place to spend a fun weekend with my friends. The host was extremely thoughtful leaving us a small "care package" upon our arrival. This place is CLEAN, location is BEAUTIFUL, and it was equipped with ABSOLUTELY every accommodation we needed. This was especially great for when we cooked in a couple times. The only thing that was missing was a pizza cutter for our late-night snack :-) I would absolutely rent this place again...my friends all agreed! Thank you for such a lovely stay to break up the long gray winter months. Deb W ##### deb w. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susanna E.

The rooms were wonderfully decorated in local themes, and everything was completely spotless. The home itself was a vintage cottage with an amazing view of the marina, really giving a feel for the history of the area, which is why we came. Everything in the cottage was easy to find and everything was well stocked. The snacks and wine were a very nice touch, as were the truffles on the beds! We needed absolutely nothing while we were there; we had everything at our fingertips. We both commented that not once did we ever feel like there was something that we wanted or need that was on hand. Importantly, we had access to the beach area, which was why we came to visit. The guards at the gatehouse were pleasant and helpful. This place was worth every penny and would be great for families, couples, or friends. An amazing experience overall! ##### Susanna E.

I stayed here on Friday night with my bridesmaids the night before my wedding and my husband stayed with me on Saturday night. The house is very cute decor/design, very roomy. The hot tub was very enjoyable both nights! I enjoyed the chase lounge where I sat there for a few hours writing out my vows lol. The view is incredible of the marina!! The day after the wedding, my photographer met us at the home for another photo session on the beach and lighthouse. The owners of the home met us there drove us to the beach and picked us backup when we were done. They also allowed us to change clothes in the basement for our next session after we were already checked out. Words cannot express how grateful we are too them for not only having a perfect stay in there beautiful home but an incredible day after photo session, due to there incredible hospitality. The owner also gave me a book on the history of the lighthouse which was very thoughtful and I can’t wait to read more about it. We loved our stay so much we are planning on coming back for an anniversary in the next year or 2\. Hopefully can enjoy more of the house since it was such a busy couple of days that we were there ❤️ ##### Ann W. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather H.

The snacks and drinks waiting for us were much welcomed before we had a chance to do our grocery run.Our party of 7 enjoyed actual beds for everyone and plenty of indoor and outdoor space. The house is a 10 min drive to all the restaurants and stores in Holland but we liked staying away from the hustle and bustle. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bb411f72-e640-49a0-afc9-f814eb0905a2-1754333247091.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/99b5d946-a8e0-4ae6-9346-280a3eeb2675-1754333247203.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mandy H.
