Doug and Kristi purchased this house in 1980
We enjoyed our time in Grand Haven. This property is close to downtown Grand Haven and the the waterfront area. The house is very comfortable and had everything we needed.
My family and I have stayed at Kristi's Place the last few summers but, on the spur of the moment my wife and I were able to arrange a getaway for just the two of us. I called Kristi to see if she had 5 days available starting the end of the week. She was happy to make arrangements on such short notice. As usual the home was immaculately clean inside and out. During this stay we even had time to enjoy the bikes that are provided.
Thanks for helping make this getaway relaxing.

We used the oven twice, both times to reheat food @ 350 degrees. After about 10 minutes the grease in the oven started smoking and set off the smoke alarm. So, no oven.
Twice the lever arm that connects the flush handle to the flapper fell off the flush handle. No fun dealing with a faulty toilet. Our dog escaped the yard by going up the hill to the left where there is no fence. Property advertised a fenced in yard, which isn't true.
The sump pump in the basement was overflowing and just disgusting. We were afraid to use the washer & dryer next to it.
Upon arrival a notice of water cutoff was on the front door. Dated in 3 days time. We didn't want to stay in the house without water.
This experience was appalling. Whoever is looking after the house isn't doing their job, but that should not be our problem. We left after two days of our 5 day booking.
Buyer beware. You get what you pay for. The low price is attractive and the glowing reviews are deceiving.
This home is bubbling over with charm - from the original hardwood floors to the historic kitchen cabinets with their abundant counter space! As mentioned in the property description, the house is older. However, it is quite well maintained. Everything one could need is provided for use by guests. The house is well-appointed with comfortable furnishings including 2 reclining chairs, a reclining loveseat, large sofa and a flat screen tv with cable and wii system in the living room. There are 3 bedrooms - 2 ideal for younger guests and a master with king bed, flat screen tv and enormous closet. The eat-in kitchen is expansive with a large fridge, tons of cabinets, a microwave, dishwasher, gas range and even a K-cup machine. Plus all the little essentials were provided - disposable cups, napkins, paper towels - even scissors! The backyard is accessed from a charming sun room with a lovely settee and features 2 decks, lots of seating options and a grill and fire pit. The neighborhood is quiet with a number of charming homes. Kristi was very responsive to emails, especially when the homeaway app had issues accepting my payment. We stayed with our 2 small dogs for a full week and really enjoyed the house as well as the town. We can definitely see ourselves renting this wonderful home during a future visit to Grand Haven. Thanks Kristi & Doug for an excellent stay!
This is our 3rd year here and just like the last 2 years the place was clean, great backyard decks and great location. The owner was both helpful and responsive. Already planning on year 4 here.
We had a lovely stay in Grand Haven. If anything, the house is nicer than pictured in the advertisement, and it is well maintained. Kristi was a great host and responded to e-mails quickly both before and during our stay. There was plenty of room for our family of four, comfortable beds, on-site laundry and enough outdoor seating to have another family over for a BBQ. The house is about a mile from Lake Michigan and a few blocks from downtown Grand Haven. For a rainy day, I recommend the Tri-Cities Historical Museum - it was surprisingly good for a free museum in a relatively small town! I recommend this property without hesitation, and we hope to stay there again.
