The cabin has history but has been updated with comfortable furniture had everything we needed for eating, sleeping and enjoying our time together. Thank you for this little gem." Terri C.

The location of this cottage cannot be beat and we love that basically everything is provided - beach chairs, towels, toys, kitchen necessities, etc. The bedrooms are perfect for sleeping lots of people and a pack n play is provided which was perfect for our daughter. We had a few minor issues with a leaky faucet, ants in the kitchen, and a broken hinge on the basement door - all of which are totally to be expected in an older, lakeside cottage - and all of which were responded to and resolved quickly. We were very happy with our stay and look forward to making more memories here in the future. ##### Caitlynn H.

The house itself was tired and could use some updating. Mattresses and pillows were pretty worn, although Some things seemed fairly new, couch, some lamps, linens. All in all, we enjoyed our stay but would probably look elsewhere on a return trip. ##### Roberta I.

You cannot beat the location of this cottage, right on Lake Michigan! The views from living room and master bedroom are breathtaking, and the beach is just down the steps. We have stayed in Macatawa 3 times at 3 different houses, and by far, this was the best location. The cottage itself was small, but it worked for our family. There was a master bedroom with connecting bathroom, a smaller second bedroom, and even smaller 3rd and 4th bedrooms, with a 2nd bathroom in between. With the bunk beds, the cottage comfortably slept 8. ##### Dan R. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2021 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Sheryl R. 1 Nov 2021 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### very disappointing This cottage may be OK in the summer when the windows (that work) can be open and little time is spent inside, but in the off-season (mid-October) it is damp and uncomfortable. I left after the first night of my 4-night stay, flea-bitten and unrested. Having spent most of my short time inside, the condition and cleaning problems were obvious and unsettling. ##### Sheryl R. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2021 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Todd C. 15 Oct 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good spot on the lake This property delivered what we expected given the pictures and description. It’s an older property with older appliances, but then again, we weren’t looking for a luxury condo. It’s a fantastic spot with great access to the beach. There are nits we could pick with an older property like this (the shower in the master bathroom does not drain well), but all told we were happy with the experience of staying there. The communication was great. ##### Todd C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori O. 18 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Get Away! Our family of five + grandma loved our stay. There's plenty of room, great views, and a wonderful beach w/easy access of 60 steps. This rental is within a family community and is lovely. You step back in time entering the cottage with older amenities, but it doesn't deter from the home. Tighter living quarters then we were used to & it was doable. We lived outside as much as we could. Location is fantastic & close to Holland and Saugatuck. ##### Lori O. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ---
