About this property

The Bungalow - So close to the water, it almost over an over-the-water bungalow!


The prime location of this new, first class, unique lakeside home in
the resort community of Macatawa makes it easy to relax. The
Bungalow is set on a spacious, well groomed lot overlooking the
active Lake Macatawa Harbor. The sandy beaches of Lake Michigan are
a lazy walk away. A 2nd floor wrap-around deck allows the luxury of
enjoying the pleasant summer evenings and the harbor activity.

The Bungalow is a modern cottage condo, attached to a private residence. It has all the comforts of home including a cozy kitchen fully equipped with granite counters and stainless steel appliances. The living room features a 20-foot ceiling and windows and deck overlooking the water. The 3 bedrooms, one with a king bed, one with a queen bed, and one bedroom with bunk beds, provide sleeping up to 7. Other features include 2 baths, 3 cable TV's, a washer and dryer, central air conditioning, a gas grill on the deck, and a 2 stall garage. A Ping Pong Table is located in the garage. All linens and bath towels are provided. This is a non-smoking unit and pets are not allowed. Wi-fi internet is included.

In addition to the Bungalow facilities, guests will have access to the exclusive Macatawa beach. The long, private, sandy beach is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan and stretches as far as you can see. The "Big Red" lighthouse that marks the Holland Harbor Channel stands proud at the North end of Macatawa Beach.

For the Boater, slips are available to rent next door at Eldean
Shipyard.

There are discounts from the nightly rates when requesting a week or monthly stay.

Family week

I wanted overflow space for a big family gathering. This was perfect because the kids could walk down from the other house and play basketball or cornhole or ping-pong or just escape. It was very comfortable, in a beautiful spot, and all worked out just like I hoped

The fun never ends.

This is our second time staying at this property. It is clean, has a great location and the amenities are endless for activities while staying on the property. It is the one thing that my 12-year-old and 14-year-old talk about. I love playing ping pong, corn hole as well as volleyball. Because it was cold for our stay this year. We just shut the garage door and the girls played ping-pong and cornhole in the garage.

Beautiful Piece of Heaven!

My husband and siblings all stayed at this wonderful property and attended my nieces wedding, which was a quick walk down the street. We had all been to Holland, but never to the Lake Macatawa marina area. Such a gorgeous lake! The weather was perfect and we walked to the beach and lighthouse on Lake Michigan. The Bungalow was perfect for our stay and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and kitchen well equipped. It is located right on the water and sitting outside watching the ducks and boats with a glass of wine was so relaxing. We hope to be back again some day! Thank you so much for a pleasant stay!

Amazing Property

This property exceeded our expectations. The house was amazing and the basketball hoop, bag toss, and board games were a great touch. The road to walk to the lighthouse was closed for some reason so that was a bummer but otherwise this was a great place to stay.

Beautiful property on the water

This property was perfect! It is literally on the water so we ate all our meals on the private deck overlooking the marina. Great views of the marina, but also an easy walk to Lake Michigan. Very clean, comfortable property. I would stay here again!

The best vacation spot on Lake Macatawa!

We have been visiting Lake Macatawa and staying at The Bungalow for several years. We discovered this rental through an online search and found everything to meet the description and pictures seen on the website. The owner has always been very pleasant, easy to communicate with and flexible in accommodating us. The Bungalow and surrounding property are always clean and well maintained. We normally spend our time fishing (next to the Bungalow), going to the beach/lighthouse (an easy 7-10 min walk at most), playing games like ping-pong, basketball, or bags, or just relaxing in the family room or on the deck. We also usually rent a boat from Holland, ride rented bikes around South Shore Drive, and shop at nearby Saugatuk. Our favorite places to eat are The Piper (at the marina), Boatwerks, and New Holland Brewing Company. Of the many summer vacations we have had here we experienced only one unexpected problem with a water heater which was repaired in a couple of hours (excellent customer service!) We would highly recommend The Bungalow!
