Perfect little spot!

An ideal location that had lots of sweet touches! The space is very inviting and offered a kind notebook with local places to visit & shop! The beach access is close-by (approx. 2 blocks) and there's a walking trail right outside the front door! Host was easy to contact with any questions, too!

Beach Cottage Getaway

Visiting Holland, Grand Haven and Saugatuck over the Fourth of July Holiday week with my mom for a mother&daughter getaway and we couldn’t have asked for a better place or location! The cottage is clean and cozy with everything you need. The beaches, restaurants and grocery all nearby. We went to the beach everyday and had a lovely time. I highly recommend staying at Norm & Anna’s cottage! Very nice people!

Adorable cottage

Perfect location, had all the amenities that i needed. Owner always ask first before coming over to manage the property. They also made sure i had everything that i needed. Neighbors were friendly and quiet. Beach and lake were within a short walking distance. If you like to ride bikes this is a great location for it. The property also has a nice patio to relax and enjoy a drink or do some grilling. Highly recommend staying here.

Welcome to Holland!

My two daughters and I traveled here from Atlanta, GA for Tulip Time and my, our week here exemplified “vacation” for us. A slower pace, many kind folks we met along the way and of course this cozy place to call “home.” Visiting here has been a dream of mine since being introduced to an essay entitled “Welcome to Holland” when my youngest, born w/ Down syndrome, was an infant. We’d said our next trip would be to the Netherlands but honestly, not sure that’s necessary given the great time we had here in west MI.

Cottage Near the Beach

We had a lovely 5 week stay in Norm and Anna’s cottage! They anticipated our every need with every kitchen supply, shelves of books, and consistently reliable internet. They have anticipated many questions and provide answers in a handy binder, but any time we had a question Norm responded to us within minutes. Bike path out front, county parks very near by, and beautiful Lake Michigan within walking distance! This cottage was a treasure for us.

August getaway

Very nice location just 10 minutes from a Lake Michigan beach. Great walking and bike riding right from the property. An easy bike ride to Holland State Park. Nice front patio for drinking coffee and watching the world go by. There is a bit of traffic noise sine the speed limit on the road is 50 mph, but nothing that really bothered us.

A great location!

This little house was in a great location for the two of us. It has easy access to public beaches, bike paths, parks, etc. Probably not the best choice for unrelated couples or large families, due to the single bathroom. The kitchen is a bit dated, but everything that we tried worked, and it was pretty well stocked with cookware, utensils, glassware, spices, etc. A nice place for couples or a small family.

We always enjoy staying at the cottage. I believe this is our fifth summer in a row! Love the rear deck and the shed to put our bikes in.

About the host

Hosted by Norm Donkersloot

We are two transplants to West Michigan who loved it enough to stay for 30 years. A year ago we found a cottage needing a lot of work. We enjoyed the remodeling and the vacation business so much that we bought a second place. Our day jobs are in elementary and graduate education.

Why they chose this property

We both like to bike and we spotted the cottage on a road and trail where we often ride. There is a bike path in the front yard. The cottage is located near the water on a tree lined road.

What makes this property unique

Large deck and backyard. Outdoor furniture for the deck, gas grill and picnic table with umbrella. There is a shed available for bike storage.
