Downtown Grand Haven stylish retreat

Enjoy everything that Grand Haven has to offer in our downtown place.

We are located 3 blocks from the heart of downtown Grand Haven, 3 blocks from the Grand Haven Boardwalk and Chinook Pier, 3 blocks to the Musical fountain and less than a mile from the Beach and State Park.

This place has one queen bedroom plus a pull out queen bed in the large living room. We also have a desk work station, good wifi and 55" smart TV. We also have high end new appliances, rain head shower, walk in closet and washer/dryer.

I love the comforts of home while I am travelling and I strive to provide a great experience for my guests with a clean, spacious place, a comfortable bed with 5 star hotel quality linens, Frette towels, black out blinds in the bedroom and good coffee.

This is the main level unit of a two story duplex and offers a deck with a table and chairs off of the entrance.

The place was exactly as described. Very cute and homey. We had a wonderful time just relaxing and touring the town. Farmers market was great. The only negative was Mother Nature did not want to cooperate. Pamela was super great to work with. We will visit again.

We were very content at this property! It is a great location for walking to the main strip of shops & restaurants, with still being calm & quiet (minus the construction project going on at the time, but the owner was very up front about it which we appreciated) We enjoyed walking to the Chinook Pier & some of our favorite places to eat were Lucy's, Kirby House, Snug Harbor, & Morning Star Cafe. Overall we had a great trip in Grand Haven!

Holiday trip

Property is at a great location within walking distance to downtown Grand Haven restaurants and shopping. We really enjoyed our stay. The place was very clean with upscale appliances. Pamela checked in us during our stay to ask if we needed anything and was super accommodating. We absolutely will be staying there again!! Highly recommend!

This host is amazing. Honestly, I’ve never experienced a host like this. There was street construction happening right in front of the duplex and she reached out making us aware and offered a full refund if we didn’t want to deal with it. I’m so glad we didn’t cancel. The location was excellent and the space itself was cozy and clean. I would stay at any property this host has.

Perfect Getaway

We throughly enjoyed our stay! We were celebrating our anniversary and were welcomed with roses and a thoughtful card. There was also a quaint message board that said “Welcome to (the city) happy anniversary”. Both were unexpected personal touches, the above and beyond approach that are characteristic of “super hosts or premier hosts”. The small things count! The place was super clean and well stocked. Well decorated and close to shops, food, and of course, the Beach! We had the privilege of being the first guest after a remodel which sometimes turns out not to be a privilege at all… However, we were pleasantly surprised and pleased with the amenities and workmanship. Pamela and her husband are well-traveled hosts and it shows! All of the necessities were readily available and if anything else was needed, our gracious host were but a text or call away. The property comes with one small off street parking spot and additional parking across the street. We stayed during the Coast Guard Festival and learned that parking fills up quickly! This is an up/down duplex so depending on the neighbors, you may experience some noise from upstairs. We were blessed to have had a lovely neighbor so this was not an issue for us. All in all, if you’re looking for a great stay with great hosts, just do it!
