About this property

Welcome to my home! This is a great home with lots of updates including an open floor plan with newer appliances. It is fully stocked with very nice linens, towels and mattresses. The kitchen has everything you need to make your favorite meal or just relax with a glass of wine. You can have a great cookout with the gas grill and eat outside on the deck. You can build a fire in the firepit this summer with wood provided and roast hotdogs and marshmallows with the kids. The shed has everything you need for a fun day at the lake including beach chairs, a beach wagon, multiple floating swim devices and cooler bags to pack a picnic lunch as well as chairs to sit around the fire pit. The back yard is fenced in entirely to keep your dog or children safe and to provide you with privacy. You are a mile from the lake and a quick bike ride or walk downtown to great shops and dining. Come enjoy! I'll do everything I can to make your stay great .

Of note, all three bedrooms are upstairs in this home.

Great getaway

My family enjoyed our stay at this house. It was exactly as advertised. Clearly, Melinda cares about providing good hospitality. The house has had a lot of recent updates and was a good location to walk downtown. Melinda was great.

Great for family of 5 w/ dog

Really great location just a 5 minute walk to the shops and restaurants on Washington. Fenced yard was great for our dog. We have three teenaged kids and we all fit easily around the game table and the TV. Lots of nice little touches too like good quality shampoo and wireless chargers on the nightstands.

Highly recommend!

We had an amazing time in grand haven thanks to our stay here. The house was clean and so adorable, but it was all of the little touches that made it such a nice weekend. Melinda has really thought of anything you might need. There are chargers by the beds, dog bowls, s’mores supplies, etc. cannot recommend this home enough!

Comfortable, clean house

We enjoyed our stay in your lovely house. Well stocked, and had a wonderful backyard for our beagle to sniff. Not a house for anyone with mobility issues, as the stairs are steep. But we did fine, and enjoyed our stay. We were here for a wedding at Central Park, and it was an easy walk! Thanks for a nice stay!

About the host

I am a Michigan transplant. I love to live and be on the water.

Why they chose this property

This is my first rental home. I walked in the door and thought "I would live here any day" and I bought it! I have stayed in many vacation rentals and wanted to make this one have it all.
