Spring Lake waterfront home on Markers Cove with full Spring Lake access!

We are excited to welcome you to our home, Compass Cove!
This is a three bedroom, two bath home located on Markers Channel of the very popular Smiths Bayou on Spring Lake!
Our home has an open floor plan and set up comfortably for family entertaining. The large kitchen is fully stocked and ready for your family meal at the large farm table!
There are 3 bedrooms. Bedroom One with a king sleep number bed and master bath, bedroom Two with a queen bed, and bedroom three with a king sized bed. A twin sized air mattress and an infant pack-n-play are also provided.
The large open great room is the perfect gathering space with access to over 550sqft of outdoor decking that leads to a very nice sized yard for outdoor activities. There is 180' of water frontage with 100' of seawall for you to tie off your own boat.
Compass Cove includes a paddle boat and two Kayaks for your families enjoyment. Excellent fishing and boating right from the seawall. A fire pit is on site for evening enjoyment.
There is a Traeger pellet smoker for outdoor cooking and making the very best BBQ!
We have corn hole and washers available for your use upon request.
We are located approximately 2 miles from North Shore beach and 3 miles from Grand Haven State Park beach. Hoffmaster State Park is also only just over 3 miles North of our home. All of these parks have great beaches right on the beautiful Lake Michigan and wonderful hiking trails.
Bike trails are abundant and start right outside the neighborhood leading you to all the amenities Spring Lake and Grand Haven have to offer. A HUGE transformation just happened in downtown Spring Lake making this a choice destination with award-winning restaurants, bars and breweries. Grand Haven (Coast Guard City, USA) has also done some major renovations along the waterway and the main street offering tons of amazing shops and in the evening you can enjoy the 2nd largest waterfront musical fountain in the United States! The new band shell right on the waterway has many events as well that are very exciting to attend.
Please note the location of Compass Cove. We are located just off Highway 31. If you can't bear the sound of traffic this is not the home for you. In the yard the traffic does not go unnoticed. In the home it can be heard at times but certainly not disruptive. Alexa speakers and fans are located in each bedroom for your use if you enjoy some white noise while you rest.
Lastly, we love our dog and want you to be able to travel with your pet as well. We do ask that you do your best to keep your dog off the furniture and keep your dog in a kennel or similar if you are away from the home. There is a pet fee so please be sure to account for that.
This is our personal home. We love it, are thrilled to share it with you, and want to do our best so you love it just as much.
Thank you for viewing and we look forward to hosting your family!

Beautiful home, great vacation!

So nice having our boat right out back, spending the day on the water, then coming back to grill, play yard games, have a fire and enjoy the beautiful home. We definitely would like to do it again next year! Hosts have absolutely everything you would ever need and are so nice and easy to work with. Thank you for sharing!!!

Wonderful!

Absolutely all you could ask for - helpful and prompt host, clean and comfortable home, great location for all the fun in western MI! Our family enjoyed the use of the paddle boat, kayaks and outdoor games. They even provided toys and a portable crib for the 1 year old. Kitchen was well stocked too! Master bathroom is a little on the small side but sleep number bed more than made up for it!

Sweet spot!!

Cannot express how wonderful it is to vacation on the water with toys for the whole family including our dog. The house is super cute and has everything we wanted/needed. In the area are dune rides, quirky museums, berry picking, horseback riding and of course the best sandy beaches in the country. We loved it, thank you!

Was clean and spacious. Location was good and we were close to Grand Haven and family, our married children stayed with us and there was plenty of room. Everything worked fine in the house and everyone had a king or queen bed. Over all it was a nice place to stay.

Great temporary home!

We stayed here for two weeks upon relocating to Michigan with our infant, toddler, and two dogs. The home had everything we needed - even toys! It is spotlessly clean. Location is convenient to many attractions. Close to freeway, but that is noted in the listing. Overall great!

Great house and pet friendly

Great space and was able to bring my pet. Yard is not fenced, so your pet needs to stay in leash. You can tell the owners take care, they came by multiple times during our start to water plants on the patio.

Clean, clean, clean. From the kitchen to the bathrooms the place is very well appointed with all the gadgets, towels, bedding, box fans for white noise...you would need for a comfortable stay. The Traeger smoker/grill was fantastic. We enjoyed the use of the kayaks and paddle boat. The owners/hosts were friendly and attentive. Did I mention clean - LOL

Fun on the Bayou

Impeccably clean property. Loved the paddle board, kayaks and paddle boat. All the household amenities were first rate. Caught more fish in the backyard canal than on the lake. Smoked a pork shoulder on the Traeger; Awesome.

Fantastic getaway location

We had an absolutely spectacular stay. This home is immaculate! And so comfortable and welcoming. Such nice touches and Brandon and Melissa made everything super-easy for us. Gorgeous porch, water access to Spring Lake a one-minute paddle away, world's best couch for spreading out with summertime novels. Fabulous hospitality. We loved it! Would go back in a sec. Great location too so close to Grand Haven, and we roamed from Muskegon down to Fennville.

Couldn’t Be Better

This was the perfect place for my family and my sister-in-law’s family to stay together when we went to the Grand Haven area to celebrate my in-laws’ anniversary. It was clean, comfortable, and big enough to be our “home base”. It also has so many fun things (paddle boat, kayaks, lawn games, big yard, long porch, outdoor dining area) and is close to many things to do—the beach, sand dunes, mini golf, etc.—so we had fun going out and staying in. Brandon and Melissa also provided meticulous detail for the stay, making it stress-free, and responded to our one question very quickly. If we go back to the area we will definitely stay here again!

Highly Recommend!

The owners are great with easy communication. The home is better in person and it felt like a home not a pieced together rental. The owner took lots of time to make the house comfortable and it was really appreciated. House smelled great too! You will not be disappointed. There is noise from the highway when you’re in the bedrooms but their Alexa can play music to drown out if needed.

Amazing rental!

We stay at VRBOs frequently across the US and this rental was easily in our top 3. The rental is very clean, well maintained, well stocked with everything you need, and is beautifully decorated. The property is centrally located to Lake Michigan, many nearby attractions (such as Gold Rush Indoor Waterpark which was our favorite!), the grocery store and restaurants. The hosts had excellent communication and it's obvious that they have pride in ownership. We will definitely be back and would love to visit in the warmer months so we can enjoy the kayaks and paddleboat. Highly recommend and if the owners ever decide to sell this property, please let us know as we would be interested in buying it (this is how much we loved it there!)!

Perfectly equipped, gateway to fun on the water in Spring Lake

Our family rented this home for its lake access and ability to tie up a boat. It was all of those things and more! There are lots of fun water toys and our kids loved the paddle boat, kayaks and SUP. We had a rainy day one day of our stay and the house was incredibly comfortable to hang out, watch movies and relax in. This home was the cleanest VRBO rental we have ever stayed at. It was well equipped and was clearly well maintained by Melissa and Brandon. They were excellent hosts and responded very quickly to any of our questions and made us feel very welcome. Check in and check out was simple and allowed our family to immediately feel at home.

Unforgettable Thanksgiving.

Words cannot describe our stay. They just won’t do justice to property. We had the best Thanksgiving of our lives. Home felt just like that Home. Very clean, everything we needed to cook Thanksgiving. Host was very accommodating. There is noise from road but it isn’t even anything to even be concerned about. Host has supplied fans and Alexa pods if this is a problem. Thank you Melissa and Brandon. We will be back.
