In between drinks and food at the tiki bar, challenge your family and friends to a game of volleyball, badminton, corn hole, spike ball, bocce, or basketball. Bring your fishing poles to fish off of the dock (catch and release only). There is also, a fun kids play area with picnic table, recreation set, and toddler playset. When you are done playing outside, come in and enjoy a game of pool or foosball, play Pac-Man, Galaga, or Frogger on the full-size arcade machines, or play any of the many board games we have onsite.

Angela is so easy to work with and we have enjoyed her place for 4 years in a row now. This property has everything you need. When we aren’t playing games or relaxing on the large deck (with awesome tiki bar), we love that it’s close to the beach, golf, and pickleball courts.

This house/property is nicely laid out and spacious if youhave a larger group. Lots of space to spread out! It is also in a great location as our party explored Holland, Grand Haven, West Olive, etc. The grocery stores were pretty convenient also. The house seemed a bit more "worn" than the pictures show, but all in all, very decent and Angela was an attentive host.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. We had plenty of room inside and out. The grandkids enjoyed fishing and the back yard. There is much to do in this area of Michigan also with all the great beaches and other activities available. Enjoy your time at the house or away - your choice.

Great Accommodations

Our family of 14, from infant to age 75, found this house met all of our needs and expectations. There were many amenities throughout, from an extra baby monitor to everything you need at the beach. Also games for every age indoor and out. Beaches were close and other attractions within 15 minutes. We had a great time!

Great property and house with plenty of space for everyone. Angela always has a lot of additional items for use on her properties (beach chairs, towels, kiddie pools and other kids toys, and all kinds of games and activities). The pond was great as kids spent a lot of time fishing and playing in sand!

Wonderful family vacation!

Great home for a large family of all ages! Angela was MORE than accommodating and went above and beyond to make our stay excellent. Plenty of blankets and extra pillows - even baby gates for the little! Kayaks, beach volleyball, beach gear….plenty to do! Even a giant blow up water slide! Kitchen could use some additional cookware but other than that, we loved our stay. Highly recommend
