Grand Haven MI

The location was excellent-close to Grand Haven downtown as well as river and Lake Michigan waterfront. The rental was clean and cute. However, the rental is attached to the back of a house and there are 3 rental spaces in very close/tight proximity. I have rented in Grand Haven a few times and for the cost of this rental I was a bit disappointed.

Everything everywhere all at once!

We chose Lisa’s apartment for location, size and amenities. The apartment has a whimsical beach vibe with all amenities making for a very comfortable stay. Clean, convenient and charming sums it up. Lisa is a gracious host especially when her guests misplaced the key late one night. Without a hint of annoyance she let us in. Fortunately we found the key soon after!

Peace Out✌️

Can’t say enough good about this VRBO..other than this place was our jam! We (4) rented the upstairs unit..1 Queen Bedroom/Bath, 1 full sleeper couch+ porch+full kitchen with supplies- it is a rustic unit but has retro/beach design and we just loved it - it has a window air conditioner but we were 100% comfortable…Lisa was amazing with suggestions and is onsite, quick to respond via the app re:booking and while on property- greeted us when we arrived. Small cooler and ice bag along with beach chairs provided. While downtown and the beach are walkable, I suggest driving..use the city beach (no fee) for sunset - then the musical fountain downtown and street games/foods/boutiques. A larger unit is also available downstairs with 2 bedrooms- we hope to visit again - Thank you for sharing your vibe with us…it was a great weekend to reconnect with our daughters and enjoy Father’s Day !

Great weekend getaway

The apartment looked just like the pictures - adorable! The colors are so bright and cheery. My husband and I wanted a quick weekend getaway and this was the perfect spot. We love Grand Haven and even on a cooler, drizzly October weekend we walked to the downtown quite a bit. It’s close to everything.

Lack of communication

There were pros and cons with this property. Location was great. The property not so much. The floors were slanted and felt unsafe. There was very little communication with the owner about check in and laundry such as (towels and washcloths). I wish there would have been some information on all the places to see and food recommendations in the area. Instead of renting out this unit, the other unit felt and looked more spacious and safer. This particular unit should not be rented out. In fact, we left a day early.

We were very disappointed for the amount of money that was paid for this “upstairs apartment “. This was NOT disclosed in their information on the VRBO posting.Its states second story historic home which there are many second story historic homes throughout the neighborhood so it was shocking to find out this was a small upstairs apartment. It does not state this anywhere in their posting. My friend is recovering from cancer and had a very hard time with the stairs which was not disclosed. VERY MISLEADING. The front porch is pictured on their posting and it is NOT for guests, only for the owners. A very small 4x4 porch is what guests have to use with a view of the driveway. Why would owners even show that if you do not have access to the front porch? It was not worth 673 for two nights.The price of the rental includes a cleaning fee yet guests are asked to walk their garbage down the stairs to their garage and dispose of it which I did not do. We left this apartment very clean like we found it. Very poor quality toilet paper. 4 Keurig pods for 2 people staying 2 full nights and no coffee at all for the full service coffee maker. We had to buy coffee.Very disappointed with our stay. Owner needs to be honest and specific in the details of their rental. We would not stay here again.

Great Location to be able to walk all around downtown Grand Haven. Cute neighborhood for walks too.

The property was exactly how we expected. Very cute! It had all the amenities we needed for a weekend away. Would rent it again. The things I would add would be a welcome sign on the door just so renters know they are at the right place. We didn't know if we were walking through the correct screen door or correct door up the stairs. It does say it sleeps 6 however, I am not sure 6 adults would fit.
