About this property

Newly remodeled!! Cozy river house near downtown Grand Rapids!

Just a short drive north of Downtown Grand Rapids, this quaint little cottage on the river is cozy and comfortable, perfect for a couple or small group.

This home located on the Grand River and has recently been renovated in 2024. The water is on a well but treated with a newly installed water softener system, however, the water table can cause the water to have a sulfur smell at times. A Culligan water dispenser is provided for drinking. The home can comfortably sleep 4 with plenty of room for parking. The kitchen is ready for use with basic essentials and new appliances installed in 2024. There’s a large deck, grill, and basketball hoop. You can fish from the riverbank or launch your boat at one of the nearby parks. The home offers plenty of privacy for a relaxing experience. This home is within walking distance from LMCU Ballpark, AJ's Family Fun Park, and White Pine Trail. There are great breweries, restaurants and shopping nearby.

This home is perfect as it provides the comforts of a fully furnished home.

The house is adorable. It had everything we needed. The location was great for our purposes of the different places we needed to go around Grand Rapids. The only downside was the horrible sulfur smell from all the taps and shower. The odor emanated throughout the entire house. We understood the why from the recent flooding but it made for a very uncomfortable stay. The communication was good with the owner.

The property was on the Grand River as advertised and communication with the host was excellent. We enjoyed watching the sun rise and set on the river each day and sitting around the fire-pit chatting at night. There was a bike/ped trail nearby which we enjoyed using. Access to freeways and downtown was easy and convenient.The water heater wasn't working when we got there so I notified Shawn who had his maintenance guy come out and fix it right away. A few minor items for improvement: 1) there was a dirty pan of cooked bacon left in the oven and 2) we needed to sweep the outdoor deck and clean the two grills to meet our standards for cleanliness.There's also a small abandoned and dilapidated house immediately adjacent to the property that was unexpected. However, this did not negatively impact our stay.

The cottage was clean, well maintained and cozy. Off the beaten path and peaceful and only a 10 minutes drive to Downtown Grand Rapids. The well water is mentioned in the listing and is very noticeably eggy but we enjoyed our stay nonetheless. The porch was a perfect spot to have coffee while looking out over the calm and gorgeous river each morning. Cozy, quaint and just what we needed for a weekend away.

What a wonderful stay! This cozy home by the river was the perfect getaway—clean, comfortable, and incredibly relaxing. We especially enjoyed mornings with coffee on the deck, watching the wildlife along the river, and evenings by the firepit under the stars. The peaceful setting felt like a true escape, yet we were just a short drive from all the fun in Grand Rapids. Thank you for providing such a welcoming and homey space—we’re leaving refreshed and grateful!

Fantastic stay

My wife and I stayed here with another couple after Beerfest. It’s a very cozy and cute cabin set right on the Grand River. We enjoyed waking up to a sunrise over the river with ducks swimming by. We even went for a walk down the road to enjoy privacy and good weather. Would definitely recommend this place.

Great Location

Listing just as depicted in listing. We were in town to watch the Whitecaps play a couple games and the location of the River House was a 15 min walk to stadium. We could hear the loud speakers as we walked out the front door. Enjoyed the peacefulness of the River view. Would stay here again.
