LOCATION

Enjoy the privacy of this cottage as it is tucked back in a gated community with private Lake Michigan access only steps from your door. The home is located half way between Holland and Grand Haven with only a 20 minute drive to either location. Enjoy everything these Harbor Towns have to offer from boutique shopping to Farmer Markets to restaurants and ice cream shops. We also recommend the walk or drive to Sandy Point Beach House for out to eat dining or ice cream. The area offers antique shopping, art galleries, blueberry picking and the coastal towns of Saugatuck and Douglas are a short drive away and great to explore. Grand Rapids is about 45 minutes east and offers dining, breweries, and cultural offerings such as Meijer Gardens and many museums. There is numerous parks nearby that offer hiking and the biking trail is accessible on Lakeshore Dr. directly from the cottage. The bike trail extends from Holland to Grand Haven and beyond and exploring it has been a favorite pastime of our family.
