Matt was a great host and answered any and all questions we had before and during our stay. I would highly recommend this house to any small groups of friends in Holland for a weekend. The short walk down to the beach was wonderful and the house itself was amazingly clean when we arrived. Next time I am in town and need a house this will be my first choice if it is available. ##### Tyler K. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 ---
