What a beautiful property! The view is absolutely stunning! Watching the sunset each night is spectacular. Walking the beach is peaceful and refreshing. They've done an incredible job of keeping the house in great shape, it's simplicity yet timeless decor, allows the opportunity to enjoy, sit back and relax! Hard to believe it's in Michigan! Priceless!
What a great weekend away! Even in the Winter months, this beautiful home is such a relaxing retreat away! The view of Lake Michigan from multiple rooms is breathtaking! The accommodations are clean and comfortable. The owners are very friendly and great to work with. We will definitely be back!

Host responsive when we needed help
Figuring out the door locks!
The house was perfect, even nicer than shown in the pictures. The beach this summer (2022) was plenty large, and there were plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, and toys to keep everyone occupied. The beds and linens were very comfortable, and the house was immaculate when we arrived. The owner was available by phone as needed. We hope to return in the future!
This luxurious property is a one of a kind! It is nestled back in a short scenic drive off of Lake Shore drive in a beautifully wooded area, with a picturesque view of Lake Michigan. The house is spacious and well laid out. It is well kept and the grounds are so beautiful. There are so many sweet nuggets which we enjoy....the back porch for morning coffee or watching the breathe taking sunsets, the screen porch for reading or conversing with friends, the kitchen is ideal for cooking, the basement is spacious and has a great entertainment/game area and the master bedroom is a retreat in itself with a lovely nook to read and enjoy the spectacular scenery! All the bedrooms are spacious and clean. Bedding and amenities are of great quality. The private beach in front is great for walks or there is a trail on Lake Shore for walking, running, biking or hiking. Honestly this is and was a great fit for our family and we created many good memories! Look forward to visiting again in future!!
My sisters and I rent a house every year somewhere in Michigan. The house has to accommodate my 7 sisters, myself and my mother. So it is necessary to have enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all. This house has been our favorite so far. It did not disappoint!. The pictures show the beauty of the house and location. The sound of Lake Michigan at night was amazing. My mom was so pleased with the location and we were able to watch the sunset every night. The kitchen is so well equipped that we cooked every meal. Will definitely look at returning in a couple of years.
This house is perfect! Large light filled rooms, everything you need and 45+ steps down to the most lovely sandy “beach”. The beach is small and disappears at high tide but the water is lovely and a shirt ride there is an entrance to a larger beach, via a state park. Grand Haven is cute and Morning Star Cafe is a FABULOUS breakfast destination!!!!!
I do not believe there is a more beautiful property on Lake Michigan than your home! We had a Girl’s Surprise Birthday Getaway that was Amazing! When the ladies walked thru the front door they were severely Wowed! One of those Aha moments! We had a total pampering experience! The entire lake side of the home is all glass so we had endless views of the beautiful lake from every room. The breezes off the lake were so refreshing. The grounds were impeccably maintained. The flowering plants were in bloom which made it more of a paradise!
The home was spacious, beautifully decorated and clean. The entire property reminded us of being in The Hamptons! I recommend this property to everyone and look forward to staying here again! Janice was always available for questions and willing to do anything she could do to help! She is a Wonderful Host!
This property is a special gem! From the beautiful lakeshore scenery to the simple clean open floor plan, it is a great space for family and friends to come together! The owners are great to work with, always accommodating and friendly. Love the comfort of the home, from sleeping to cooking in the kitchen, playing games and lounging indoors or outdoors taking in the view...it's hard to beat! Thanks for blessing us with a beautiful getaway! We'll be back!
The pic's do not do this place justice , the property is fantastic and the views are second to none ! Relaxing and very accommodating to our needs . Everything billed was there and then some . Property owners were easy to communicate with and made our trip memorable as could be . I HIGHLY reccomend this place for groups of ten or less .
Family vacation and 40th Wedding Anniversary celebration
Panoramic lake view and SPECTACULAR SUNSETS! Property is well equipped and well suited for families with children or adults. We fully enjoyed our time spent on property. So much so, we are returning next year for a repeat performance! Thank you Mark and Janice for sharing a true “Crown Jewel”.
We stayed at this beautiful West Olive home right on Lake Michigan the first week of September, 2019. The sunsets were stunning, and the yard was so beautiful with lots of room for our grandchildren to run and play! Only about 20 steps down to the beach where we all enjoyed the late summer Lake MI water. The owner, Janice and the property manager, Steve were both there at check in to show us around and answer any questions we had. They were great to work with! Really enjoyed our stay!!
This house was absolutely perfect for our group of 10 (5 adults and five teen / pre teens). The house is immaculate with generous bathrooms and bedrooms. The kitchen is spacious and has everything imaginable. There was so much room to spread out that we had plenty of privacy (and so did the kids) yet there are large common areas that allowed us come together (both inside and out). The views and sunsets are spectacular. We had mostly nice weather and got to experience some fun storms rolling in a couple of times. The lake was chilly as one may expect in mid June, but we had enough sun and beach to enjoy the beauty that only lake Michigan can provide. Janice and Mark were just super hosts. Constant communication and answered all of our questions on a timely basis. The location is excellent. Right on the lakeshore trail and a quick drive to either Grand Haven or the north side of Holland. We highly recommend this great home and hope to make it back as soon as possible!

Truly amazing accommodations!
We just loved our stay at this beautiful home on Lake Michigan. We truly have traveled to so many different places and this one is a favorite! The view of the water from almost every room, the sunset view and beach front are just a few of the many benefits. The home is very welcoming, spacious and comfortable. It has all the amenities you need to enjoy your stay. We love it because it's not far from Grand Haven, Holland or Spring Lake, so if you choose to leave the property there's plenty to see and do. Quite honestly though, we could sit on the porch morning, noon or night and enjoy the scenery...it is all surreal! The owners are great to work with, so accommodating and friendly. We will be back!!

Breathtaking, private, amazing views and MI sunsets!
From the moment you pull up to this house you can see through it to get a glimpse of the spectacular views you will enjoy of Lake Michigan. The house is set up so well for a family or two to comfortably enjoy together. The views from all the rooms emphasize this stunning location. The house is beautifully done and so comfortable with all the ammenitities you can think of. Janice and Mark are so easy to work with and take so much pride in each guest enjoying their stay. This has been a yearly stay that our family looks forward to each year and have built amazing memories with family and friends. It’s a don’t miss opportunity to stay in a premier Lake Michigan home.
