Classic Cottage on 5 Mile Hill across from State Beach w/ Lake Mi Views!

Your family will love their time in this classic Lake Michigan cottage on the highly sought after 5 Mile Hill area of Grand Haven. Just a short walk down the hill is the State Park Beach and the popular Boardwalk and Lighthouse pier.

Barefoot Beach: Have a memorable Michigan beach vacation at this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath Grand Haven, Lake Michigan cottage style house with room for 9. With a brand new downstairs family room/game room, multiple decks looking out over Lake Michigan, and a great location within walking distance to the beach, your group will fall in love!

Our quiet, secluded neighborhood on 5 Mile Hill is family-friendly and close to all the Grand Haven highlights.

INSIDE THE HOUSE

This cozy Lake Michigan cottage is welcoming and home-like, just as a beach house should be.

The lower level features a brand new family room complete with a wet bar, queen sofa sleeper, flat-screen tv, game table, and a full bathroom. No one wants a rainy day on vacation but rain won't stop you from having a good time enjoying a family movie or game in this beautifully decorated new space.

Up the stairs, you'll find the main living space with a fully stocked kitchen, dining area with seating for 8, comfortable living room, and tons of outdoor hang-out space including a gas grill and outdoor dining.

SLEEPING

This cottage sleeps 9 and is perfect for multi-generational travel—thanks to its unique layout.

Off the main living room, there is a "bedroom" that has a queen pull out sofa and a new attached half bath.

Upstairs there are 3 more bedrooms and 2 full baths. The first bedroom has a king-size bed and its own full bathroom attached. The second bedroom also has a king-size bed and its own private balcony which is perfect for an evening sunset glass of wine or your morning coffee. The third bedroom has two twin beds and is just around the hall from the full bathroom.

EATING

The eat-in kitchen is right off the living room, with lots of cabinets and all appliances. Its dining area seats 9. The kitchen and dining space are open to the living room, so you can still enjoy the views of the lake from the expansive front windows.

Or take your feast to the huge deck. The outdoor dining space seats 6 on the rear deck and another 4 on the front deck. Our perch on the hill is the perfect spot to watch a Lake Michigan summer sunset!

There is space for three (3) cars in the driveway.
Please note that the garage is not available for guests' use.

THE LOCATION

Walk down to the state beach area and forget about trying to find a parking spot. Be sure to bring your bikes as this house is close to downtown grand haven, and biking the boardwalk along the channel is a real treat.

Close to boardwalk
Nice living area and spacious bedrooms. Clean and comfortable. A pretty steep hill to walk down to the boardwalk but convenient if you don’t mind the hill. one of the full bathrooms is two floors away from all the bedroom so basically useless.

Awesome location
We had a wonderful stay. House was perfect for our needs and so close to the beach. Clean, and stocked with everything we could have needed. Depending on your fitness level pretty walkable to the downtown area as well. We would definitely book again for our future golf trips.

Nice size n location as advertised
This was a nice quality stay in a convenient location as advertised. Nice amenities, plenty of linens and very clean. The only areas of concern would be the WiFI was up and down a lot, 10am is too early for a checkout especially if no early check in is strictly enforced. It should be 11am or noon. There was also only 1 one pan for cooking which is challenging for a properly that sleeps 9. Great communication too from the management team which is awesome.

Nice property. Very spacious. Great for our kids and grandchildren to visit with us. Two stove burners needed new igniters. The outside grill needed a good cleaning. Convenient to Grand Haven State Park and downtown Grand Haven. Great restaurants and shops. Anna's and Morning Star were great for breakfast. JW's and Kirby House were great for lunch and dinner.

Great location
We loved the location and the size the house was very comfortable. The living area was cozy, with plenty of room to relax with our guests. The bedrooms were basic, but were adequate. Some of the house has been updated, but the kitchen and upstairs baths need some updating. Access to some beach chairs, beach towels and bikes would have been a plus and something that would make the rental more worth the pricing. I think the rental fee is quite steep for the property and is all about location. Overall, we had a great stay in Grand Haven.

Grand Haven Family Vacation
Our stay was amazing and the house was PERFECT!!! The communication between the property owner and I was not the best. I could not ever get a response back and would not have had to pack as much. They had plenty of pack in plays and also had more room than 9 people to share this home. A lot of our guest were kids too, so they are smaller:) The homeaway site has the wrong address they had 120 prospect and it is 120 emmet st. Not far but frustrating when your going by your website that you booked from. Other than that our stay was great, the weather was perfect. We could not have asked for much more!! Thank you!!
