ABSOLUTELY NO large, loud gatherings or weddings. NO pets or smokers, please. We are part of a charming, tightly knit and very closely-situated community of small cottages (where noise travels easily) with nearby neighbors who enjoy this quiet beach-front setting. We wish to preserve their goodwill. We are looking for guests who will be respectful of these parameters. Thank you for your understanding.

Review Score:   8
Summary: An amazing location on Lake Michigan. Beautiful views with access to lots of activities and short drives to Grand Haven and Holland. The cottage is small and was a tight fit for the 8 of us with only outside stairs to the bottom floor.. Not real clean but did not hamper our stay.
