This is an amazing house with great features! The beds and linens are very comfortable. Everything is spotless in the house. The decor is beautiful and it’s got everything you could possibly need! The private beach is a great place to watch the sunset. The home is close to all the shops and restaurants as well as the public beaches. Linda is a fantastic host and excellent communicator! She makes sure everything is perfect!

Linda's property continues to be the perfect location for our group. We are 3 families who collectively have a 2, 3, 4, and 5 year old, so our priorities are little-kid-friendly aspects. The multi-level layout of the house allows us privacy for each family, with enough bedrooms for separate nap spaces, as well as adequate common space for when we just need the kids to pile onto the floor and watch Bluey for a second :) Kitchen was well stocked, rooms were clean, and Linda provided kid step stools, a travel crib, a high chair, and a beach wagon. Last year we stayed close to the rental, exploring the private beach and nearby creek, patronizing the SoHa farmer's market, and playing on the swing set in the backyard. This year, we made the quick drive over to Saugatuck to their fabulous public playground and cute shops, and also took a day to explore Holland (a very doable drive with young kids). Improvements to the house could include HVAC balancing, and perhaps blackout curtains. This was our second consecutive year here, and our group will happily return again if the opportunity arises!
