About this property

Ivy Cottage/Kids Friendly/Giant Theater/Air Hockey/Walk2Beach

You’re sure to be delighted the moment you set foot inside this modern home. It’s been recently remodeled from top to bottom, front to back, to present a family home that’s an oasis of calm with so much to keep everyone comfortably snug and totally entertained.

The whole property has been inspired by Scandinavia, from the crisp, clean lines, to the modern furnishings that combine to invite you to forget your troubles and just relax. So let’s take a look around.

Rather than separate rooms, the first floor is open plan with a striking fireplace providing the centerpiece, helping divide the space into separate areas:

LIVING AREA
This is where you’ll find the 65-inch flat screen TV with Netflix and plenty of places to watch it from. Share the comfy sofa, or take the accent armchair all for yourself. Alternatively, arrange the cushions on the soft carpet and just relax. The modern, rustic wooden coffee table is sure to come in handy.

DINING AREA
Meal times are always exciting times. And this house has a dining area with a big table that gives 6 guests plenty of room to sit and snack or enjoy a more formal meal together, handy if you’re staying here to celebrate a special occasion.

FAMILY ROOM
Here’s a separate breakout area with the beautiful fireplace to enjoy and comfortable seating too. Ideal for relaxing with a book, or checking out the Holland Visitor Guide your hosts provide, giving you an overview of things to see and places to go during your stay.

GAMES / WORK ROOM
This area can serve as the kids’ games room if you’re bringing children. The shelves are loaded with board games to play at the table, so there’s sure to be something to keep the family entertained and away from screens for a while. You can also use this space for work if you’re staying in the Holland area on business. The height adjustable solid wood table serves as a traditional desk or a standing desk for healthier working.

4 BEDROOMS
Your hosts want to ensure everyone enjoys a great night’s sleep every night of your stay. So expect luxurious hotel quality memory foam mattresses, 100% cotton linens and sheets on solid wood beds. You’re sure to wake up fully refreshed, ready for a new day, whichever bedroom is yours. The master features a king bed with a deep seat armchair, and an ensuite with a full bath and stand-up shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed, the third a full bunk bed with a twin size trundle, work station, and floor couch. The fourth bedroom is in the basement that has an oversized Egress window and 2 full beds.

2.5 BATHROOMS
Guests get a choice of relaxing in a bath tub or under a shower. There’s a half tub on the first floor and a family bathroom on the second floor along with the ensuite with bath and shower in the master bedroom.

IN-HOUSE ENTERTAINMENT
Your hosts ensure there’s plenty of family fun in and around the house. The smart TV has Netflix, so you can keep watching whatever you were watching while at home. There are board games aplenty and a games console hooked up to the TV.

KITCHEN
Here’s where the culinary magic can happen. This gourmet chef’s kitchen is brand new and features all the top of the line appliances you’re likely to need, plus plenty of modern, luxurious features. A pull-out sprayer on the double sink, and a K-cup/Carafe Coffee 2-in-1 coffee maker.

CHILDREN OF ALL AGES WELCOME
This is a kid-friendly home with all kinds of amenities and features available for younger guests, including a highchair, kids’ dinnerware, Pack ’n Play/travel crib (upon request), childproof outlet caps, stairway baby gate, and kid’s toys.

LAUNDRY ROOM
You might want to leave the laundry until you get home, but in case someone wants to wear the same top twice during your stay, there are laundry facilities here you’re welcome to use.

ULTIMATE CLEANLINESS
We’re all conscious about the need to be careful and clean these days. And to help, your hosts will ensure there’s 70% alcohol hand sanitizer, wipes, and masks available for you and your fellow guests.

Family Outing
We had a great stay at the Ivy Cottage. Grandparents, parents, aunt and uncle, and two pre-teen boys spent a week prior to the boys starting school. The house had plenty of room and everything we needed was available.

Holland MI Family Vacation
Phoebe was a wonderful host. Communicated promptly. The layout of the house was exactly what we expected. 4 bedroom and 2 1/2 baths, plenty of room for 3 couples and 2 small children. The house was extremely clean, especially the bathrooms, bedrooms, and Kitchen. We fixed breakfast and lunch every day at the house and dinner 3 of 5 nights. We had a fire in the firepit every night as it was cooler than normal June week in Holland. We brought our own Firewood, but we were also able to find a private residence nearby selling firewood at a reasonable price. We walked to the Beach ... only 2 blocks ... but there was parking at Riley Beach if you would prefer to drive. There were also bikes available in the garage, but we didn't have a chance to use them. The downtown area was a 10-minute drive, which we went to multiple times.

Great for families
Fabulous place for children. My grandchildren loved it. The teen loved the air hockey and big screen and even the baby felt comfortable and loved all the space to practice her crawling. I would highly recommend this vacation rental if you are traveling with children

Great stay
We really enjoyed this cottage. The bed were nice and the place is clean. My only “negative” comment is that the guest staying in the basement have to go up 2-4 flights of stairs to take a shower/bath. Management was amazing at communicating and accommodating where possible.

Holland
This was a great property! We came for a quick trip for my birthday and for a GVSU tour. The house was clean, stocked and comfy. The homeowner was very available and commucated quickly and regularly. The house accommodated my family of five nicely. Lots of room and the projector screen and air hockey game were great for my teenagers. This house slso allowed us to bring our Jack Russell on our trip. This was a great perk of renting this house. The neighborhood is quiet and the house is close to the lake and close to shopping and restaurants. Great house and great location!

We'd stay again. . . And we're planning to
This home was a great choice for us. It was close to family. We visited the beach, but it was December so we didn't stay long. However, we're planning to return next summer with more family and we'd like to stay here again.

Cute little escape!
Phoebe was fantastic to work with and was over-the-top accommodating for us. The house was impeccably clean, and had a unique layout with lots of different areas to sit. It is very up to date and on a quiet little street. We will keep this place in mind for future rentals!

Retreat
We had an event retreat that was virtual and decided to gather some friends and get away from home to make it a better experience. This house was perfect with the huge TV in the front room to watch our event on, lots of room to break off into small groups. They have thought every thing through and furnished it beautifully! From the super comfy floor chairs to the game station! Thank you, we would go back and actually talked about making it an annual trip for us!

I am a travel enthusiast who used to live in the hustle and bustle of everyday life in Hong Kong. Despite that I missed city life, I am a big fan of nature. My husband and I both love traveling. We have been traveling with our boy since he was 6 months old, so I understand how important it is to have a home away from home. Kids-friendly and home-like setting is always my top priority.
