Weekend with Grandkids
Our daughter has 6 kiddos so we always get a short term rental. This one was one of the best. Communication was easy 👍 House has plenty of beds 👍 The ping pong table was a plus for when the kids came to “our house” 👍 We’ll be looking to rent again next time 👍

Super dog friendly!!!
I absolutely adore this house, it has so much space, even though it was just me and the dog…. But we loved it. The fenced in backyard is so great and provides privacy.

As you can see from the title, the house checked all the boxes for us. It's in a very quiet and pleasant neighborhood. It's also close to Grand Haven which was important to us.

Lovely stay!
Exactly what we needed! Great cozy space with everything we needed in a great location. Owner was friendly and accommodating. Large yard and an unexpected amount of entertainment for our kids in the sun room with the ping pong table. Thanks for the great trip!
