Neighborhoods
Grand Haven is a wonderful gem in West Michigan where you can have a true tourist experience, or relax and enjoy a peaceful getaway in nature. Lovely year round, our busy season is certainly between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with many festivals, parks and miles of lakeshore to enjoy!
Our home is located downtown, but also along a quiet street so you will have privacy from the hustle and bustle that can take place during those summer months. The heart of downtown Grand Haven is just a 1/2 mile walk to the west and the entire boardwalk is 1.5 miles long starting at Chinook Pier.
