Lovely home, Close to downtown and walking distance to the beach

We love the location of Honore's home and this time of year (April) we had a great view of the lake. The home is very clean and offers all the amenities to make our stay comfortable. I would highly recommend this home.

best cabin on the hill

We had a most wonderful week in Grand Haven. The house had everything we needed. The beds were comfy.The beach is a short walk down the hill; and the town is right around the bend. We were a tad bit worried when we found out there was no AC, but we did not need it because of constant breeze. The house is up on the top of the hill, so you will be getting lots of steps in!

Gals Grand Getaway

This was a PERFECT place for our gals weekend. The 5 of us have stayed at hotels in past years and all agreed renting a house is the way to go, we''ll be back! The house is well equipped, the sunsets were fabulous, the 3 baths were a bonus...just a great place to stay. Close to downtown for shopping and restaurants.

Beautiful Grand Haven!

Lovely cottage, tucked up in the dunes, and close to everything and everyplace you might want to go. My family has been coming to Grand Haven since my mother was a child..95 years...and we know the area well. The Virginia Cottage was perfect, and we loved the beautiful art throughout the house. We had a wonderful three days in May.

Tranquil Getaway

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. A fully apportioned kitchen and thoughtfully decorated living space highlighted this beautiful rental. And that’s saying a lot because the location is second to none! Only a few steps down to the beach or a quick walk in to town or any of the stunning wooded areas that surround this property make for easy access to all that Grand Haven has to offer.

The cottage was very comfortable and accommodating. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and yard with.

Great location. We walked to town for breakfast and two dinners. Each one way trip was about a half hour. The kite festival was at the beach which was an easy walk as well. Best breakfast was at the Morning Star Cafe.

Great getaway spot

Thank you for providing a clean, comfortable and relaxing place for our girls' getaway weekend! Even though the weather was frigid, the area is beautiful and the cottage was snug and warm. A family of deer were nestled in the snow in the woods outside the kitchen window. We enjoyed some local shopping and food and a great weekend.

Happy Anniversary Weekend

Beautiful home, fabulous location. We spent our anniversary here and were delighted to find out the intersection of "Honeymoon Hill" & "Lover's Lane" is right around the corner. Great walks on the beach in both stormy and sunny weather. We've previously spent time on the Grand Haven beaches but never got to explore (and shop) the lovely downtown area, so it was a great time of year to do that.

beautiful and comfortable.

A perfect place for six of our 17person family reunion, especially for the kids. The swing and hammock were great hits for them. Adults appreciated the tasteful environment and especially Honore's art collection. My architect husband praised the layout which was especially accomodating for large meal gatherings.

perfectly furnished.

The cottage is beautifully situated on a quiet wooded sand dune lot with a filtered view of Lake Michigan. Its three bedrooms and three baths fit our needs perfectly. The kitchen is fully stocked and the living area comfortable. We enjoyed the porches and fire pit at night. My forty-something daughters and my husband and I hope to return.

Very nice cottage. It's newly remodeled, very clean with modern appliances. Within walking distance to downtown and even closer to the beach. (lots of steps though) The cottage is fully equipped with all of the comforts of home. Even wifi! Great communication received from the owner as well.

Beautiful, cozy home.

We very much enjoyed our short 3 day visit to your incredibly immaculate home. I can't imagine needing anything as everything was supplied with a well appointed kitchen. We really loved the location as we could walk to the beach (down 58 steps-- and up), walk downtown, etc. Would love to visit in the summer. Thank you.

Great House With a Great Location On The Dune

This is my second time renting this house and have to say this is a great place to stay in Grand Haven. It has a great open floorplan for gathering and relaxing after the days’ activities. It is very comfortable and includes all the needed amenities. Its scenic location is at the top of a dune and just a quick walk down steps to the beach and just a couple of miles from downtown Grand Haven. Honore, the owner is very responsive and great to work with. In Grand Haven this is the place I will always rent.

Wonderful Place to Stay

While the weather did not cooperate for our weekend get away to Grand Haven, our stay at this property was wonderful. It had everything we needed. It was great to have a washer and dryer for our wet clothes. We were able to watch the waves on Lake Michigan from the windows on the main floor and in the master bedroom. Most of our time was spent playing board games at the large dining room table or reading on the comfy sectional. My daughters and my wife said they definitely want to come back and stay here again.
