Beautiful cottage home close to everything for your family and friends!

Tastefully and professionally renovated and decorated 2 Br cottage with public access to Spring Lake and just across the bridge from Grand Haven. Relax indoors or out on the private fenced deck or stone patio. A short walk down the (conveniently located) bike path will lead past marinas and Old Boys Brew Pub/restaurant. The cottage has a fully equipped kitchen, new washer and dryer and bath and bed linens. Everything for a relaxing stay and close to all activities on the lake shore.

Wonderful property & neighborhood
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was so cute and provided a comfortable place for us to relax and recharge. The owner was responsive to messages and the check in/out was very simple. We had no issues during our stay. The neighborhood was lovely also. Having the washer and dryer was very convenient for us. My favorite place was the front screened in porch, we also loved the cozy back patio. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Cozy and Chill
My husband, teenage daughter, and I really enjoyed this beautifully decorated, cozy little house. It’s situated on an equally beautifully landscaped yard amongst a quiet neighborhood. The house is seconds away from the main road which leads to Grand Haven. Even though it’s close to a busy road, there are buildings which buffer the sound of traffic. The owner, Merle, was quick to respond to messages and inquiries about the property. I made him aware of the ongoing problem with the a/c system (another guest mentioned the same issue in mid July). I would definitely recommend this property who’s looking for simplicity, coziness, and convenience.

Annual Girlfriends Week
Three friends returned to Spring Lake/Grand Haven this year. We loved enjoying the enclosed front porch for coffee/cocktails and meals. We spent the evenings there just talking and enjoying each others company. It especially came in handy on Sunday when it rained all day, we never used the living room area. The house was perfect for us and was exactly as listed. Since we do cook and eat some meals in, a few more dish towels and kitchen clothes would have been helpful, but there were plenty of bath towels to go around. Having the washer and dryer is wonderful for doing laundry mid-week. The kitchen floor could have been cleaner (but we did discuss this with the owner when he arrived to do some yard work so that he could address this with his cleaning crew). But everything else was clean and we had no issues. BTW, we loved meeting our host! The beds were very comfortable too and having a house gave us plenty of room to relax. Definitely will come back the next time we head to this area.

Long Weekend in Grand Haven
We spent the first weekend of the 2023 Coast Guard Festival here -- great cottage, great location, great host! The cottage is beautifully renovated. There is public access to Spring Lake at the end of the street, a nearby riverfront park with a splash pad for kids, several great restaurants within walking distance, and Grand Haven is just over the bridge. We had excellent communication with the host. We travel to the area at least once a year -- this is the best place we have stayed!

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This cottage was beautifully decorated and the inside was well maintained. The deck, and back stairway and driveway was not thoroughly landscaped and there were scattered leaves and tree debris that made it somewhat uncomfortable to enjoy the deck area. There was also no cable and only basic channels on the TV. It is well situated and in a convenient location and close to parks, restaurants and convenience stores. Despite the inconveniences I mentioned, I would definitely consider another stay on my next visit to Spring Lake/Grand Haven.

Unfortunate issues
Property was fine, though, needs new driveway/parking- due to badly broken concrete. Unfortunately, we got locked-out of cottage first night. Owner responded at ~9 p.m., but DID NOT have a key to allow access to the property, front- or back-doors, after all of our belongings were stored inside. We were told that a locksmith could get us into rental the next morning, which happened at ~10 a.m. on 7/15. As a result, we were forced to get local overnight accommodations at the Holiday Inn (HL) at $320/night (receipt available). In addition, my daughter had an infestation of Bed-bugs, as indicated by "bites" on her leg, obviously from spending time on the front porch or her bed. The owner was personally advised of this on Mon. I've been waiting for Mr. Peterson to offer a refund for at least the one-night we were unable to access, and perhaps the HL-stay also, which would be the right-thing-to-do, but have not had a response from him, to date. Would definitely like a refund, for at least $500. LDP

Best of both worlds!
Loved our stay in Spring Lake, with easy access to larger Grand Haven but enough great options nearby to not make crossing the bridge a nightly necessity. Cottage was cute and comfortable for our family of five (two adults, one 7 year old who took the top bunk and twin 3 year olds who shared the bottom, full size bed). Kitchen was well equipped to make multiple meals (only request would be a colander for straining/rinsing) and patio area was a perfect hang out while grilling. View of the local Uhaul location wasn’t as pretty as the lake of course but just a few houses down we caught a glimpse of the water and the kind neighbor let our kids stick their toes in the sand. Loved quaint and quiet Spring Lake Beach, the free Trolley system to tour both towns and addictive pretzels from Village Baker. Fuel and Grand Finale were other great, walkable spots for meals and the Spring Lake Splash Pad next to the weekly farmers market was a fast favorite, as was Whistle Stop Park perfectly placed on the paved path (great for walking/running, biking and scootering). We hope to be back soon!

My daughter & I enjoyed our stay @ this home. Great area to walk to local stores, farmers market or just to explore the shaded green neighborhood. Kitchen with new stainless appliances. Outside of lacking a colander & cutting board, the kitchen was perfect. Owner/host very responsive and also working to remedy the smart TV offering.
