Lake Michigan is only a short 1 minute walk away!

3 BR cottage with a loft (which is perfect for kids) located in the picturesque & secluded Macatawa Park Association (private / gated community), situated just 1-2 minutes walk from beautiful Macatawa beach & Lake Michigan. Plenty of room for outdoor grilling and a large lawn for kids to play when not down at the beach. Big Red lighthouse is just 10 minutes away along the beach and Sanctuary Woods offers lovely hiking & trail running and is only 10 minutes away (2 minute drive). Property comes with kayak, body boards, beach chairs, etc.

Boating services, including boat slips, are available at the base of the dune hill at the Eldean Shipyard marina. The marina also rents paddle boards, kayaks, pontoon boats, bikes and electric bikes to help you get active on your vacation.

Glad we found this property last minute. The host was very accommodating to our needs. Beautiful walk to the deck and beach to watch the sunset. I'd stay again.

Great cottage with beach access!

The cottage and location are wonderful. Matthew was very accommodating and very quick to respond with any questions. He is also flexible with check-in and check-out time, which was extremely helpful. The place was very clean and had all of the necessities for a few night stay.

We have been renting in the Macatawa area for 15 years. This by far met our expectations. Clean, modern and well equipped. Nice view of Lake Michigan from the patio. Super comfy beds and nice modern kitchen. Looking forward to returning next summer.

Great Location and a Wonderful House

Our stay here was excellent. Matt was a great host and answered any and all questions we had before and during our stay. I would highly recommend this house to any small groups of friends in Holland for a weekend. The short walk down to the beach was wonderful and the house itself was amazingly clean when we arrived. Next time I am in town and need a house this will be my first choice if it is available.
