It was a pleasure to host you at Happy Haven, Kathleen!
Overall the condo was great although it is a bit outdated. Definitely need to attend to screen doors which both have large holes in them. Carpet could be updated as well. Management was very responsive to any of our needs throughout our stay. Location is super convenient.

Fantastic Condo in great locati
Our stay in this condo couldn't have been better. You are a minute away from downtown where there is shopping, bars and amazing restaurants. Not to mention the board walk and farmers market! This property was clean and well stocked. The bedrooms are cozy and the beds are comfortable. There is plenty of room to entertain on the 2 decks. They have spectacular views of the channel where you can see the musical fountain and no better place to see the fireworks!! Especially pleased to have a garage where we kept our bikes and beach chairs. Loved this condo, and will definitely return!

Thank you so much for your kind review! We enjoyed having you and would love to have you back again.
The cookie sheet needed to be thrown out( mostly black), the bed linens were ruff to the feel, and a lot of steps. Not for elderly people.

A Week in Grand Haven
We started off with difficulty getting the front door to unlock.
After working with it for some time, my husband got it to open. Then he went into the garage and the opener did not work. The result of these two things was that he went to the hardware and bought a battery and replaced the one in the door. It then worked perfectly. Then he figured out how to get the garage to open. Something with two wires that only a man could do.
The next thing was the TV. We were promised either cable or satellite and had neither. Very disappointing as we like to watch football when on vacation.
It did rain all week but that was no fault of the owner. We had a fine time anyway.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience at Happy Haven, Carl.
We'd like to apologize for the initial inconveniences with the front door and garage opener upon your arrival. Feedback like yours helps us improve, and we're grateful you gave us the chance to understand the situation.
Regarding the TV not having cable, we were not anticipating this issue during your stay. We had a scheduled service upgrade with our provider during your stay to improve the speed and connectivity, and we apologize for any disappointment this may have caused. However, this necessary improvement has been made and should enhance future stays for all our guests with improved, dependable cable service. Please accept our sincere apologies for not being able to watch football as you had anticipated.
Despite all of these hiccups, it's good to hear you made the most of your vacation. Thanks for your understanding, and we can't wait to have you back at Happy Haven for a smoother stay. We hope to have the chance to exceed your expectations in the future!
We were looking for a reasonably priced place with decent reviews and a fairly good location. This was good for us. There was plenty of room and most everything we would need and more. We were within walking distance to most places we wanted to visit.
Our stay was very nice and relaxing. The location was perfect close to downtown. The balconies were amazing. We could watch and listen to the musical waters show. Would come back again.
A good place for adult guests, within walking distance to shopping and dining. I would not recommend it for small children.

Had an awesome time at Happy Haven. The rental is in the heart of Downtown Grand Haven. 5 minute walk to Restaurants and shopping. 25 minute walk to the Grand Haven south pier. The decks on the second and third floor are the hang out spots when you are inside the rental. The beds were very comfortable and the central air conditioning worked fantastic. It was very warm while I was there and the air conditioning was a must. I would highly recommend renting Happy Haven.

Thank You for the review! You get a nice and scenic walk down the channel towards the state park from this unit. We hope that we can host you again in the near future.
I really enjoyed our stay. Location was perfect. I hope they can update this location. Very outdated throughout, but welcoming. I'd stay again! 😊

This is my third summer vacation in Grand Haven and working with Unsalted Vacations. It’s my second year at Happy Haven and I hope to return again next year. The condo is comfortable and its location cannot be beat. My grandkids love the Splash Pad, parks and ice cream shops all within walking distance. The Musical Fountains can be seen from the balcony and it's a five minute walk to amphitheater. The staff of Unsalted Vacations have always been great to work with. They are real people who call you, respond to your emails and listen to your feedback.

Reviewer Comments:
The property's location was great for us - just across the street from the marina, s small shopping center, a great little playground, and a very inexpensive minigolf, and a small splash park. For our family with 2 little kids, it was convenient. Nice to have covered parking and a garage since Grand Haven is very walkable - but also offers plenty of parking in most areas if you plan to drive. We drove to the beach each day, but a family with older kids (or less stuff!) could probably bike or walk there, if desired. The beach at the state park has ample parking, so driving was the simplest option for us. A very nice amount of space for our 4-person family, and we really enjoyed having 2 very nicely-sized decks to enjoy. You could see the musical fountain from the deck on the 3rd floor. Overall, a great experience - thank you!

This property was absolutely perfect for me & my family (daughter, her husband and children - 5 & 3 yr olds). Everything is so close! There was the Splash Pad, Mini Golf, Musical Fountain (which you can see from the balcony) and a yummy ice cream shop directly across the road - which is extremely pedestrian friendly for crossing. Happy Haven was extremely comfortable which is how I want my vacation to be. The only thing that needed attention were the blinds in the master bedroom and the Representative from Unsalted Vacations told me this was in the works. I love Grand Haven and working with Unsalted Vacations to secure a home away from home (this is my second year) and hope to set up a third year in the very near future.

Fun for the Family, Comfortable, Clean!
The condo was everything we could have possibly wanted. Jo was very prompt in responding to my inquiries. My family of 5 had all we needed and then some to make our trip fantastic. Everything was convenient for us from the fully stocked kitchen (every appliance and gadget one could possibly want) to the movies, the beach, the laundry area, the beds (which were more comfortable than my own).
My kids enjoyed watching the musical fountain from our balcony too!
There is absolutely nothing I can say bad about my stay at Happy Haven Condo, other than we didn't stay long enough. We will definitely be staying again in the future. As well as referring it to all my friends and family.
