Family-friendly vacation rentals in Grand Rapids

This was a great little place for a last minute get away! I appreciated that we could travel with our dog. It was also nice to have access to the pool across the street. My teenagers enjoyed that. The place was clean and in a great centralized location! The only thing I didn't realize is that the bathroom is attached to the bedroom so if you're traveling with more than two people, they will need to walk through your bedroom to get to the bathroom.

This is our 3rd year in a row to come for an extended Labor Day weekend and bring our kids and/or grandkids. We love the setting. The pool is perfect for the younger kids and the adults appreciate the beauty of all the surroundings, including at poolside. If we could change anything at all we would add another bedroom as we can't quite get all of our extended family here at one time. That said, we would like to return for a 4th year at Labor Day weekend time next year. The combination of beauty, privacy, amenities, condition (always in great shape!), and proximity to lovely South Haven can hardly be beat!

My family and I loved staying here! The pool was perfect and we used it every single day and the space was ideal for us - my 4 year old especially loved the games (first timer playing Sorry) and PAC Man along with the nature / fire pit (and pool of course). It was very close to downtown Saugatuck and the host was super responsive. Our dog was also very relaxed in this location as it was quiet and peaceful and he is getting older. Thanks for the great stay and we can’t wait to come back’

I’ve rented a number of places in this area and Riverdance was very special! The home was clean and well appointed with all you need. Location awesome - everything we like to do (downtown Douglas, downtown Saugatuck, Oval Beach and hiking trails) was 10 mins or less alway. Kitchen well appointed. The star was the pool and we enjoyed it so much! A pool with no fencing between the pool and the river - that is rare and GOLD! Todd was great to deal with and very responsive. Great property, great stay!

Jennifer’s home was absolutely amazing—beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared in every way. It was the perfect place for our family getaway. The kids had an incredible time and are still talking about all the fun they had. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Highly recommend staying here—thank you, Jennifer, for being such a wonderful host!

Great house to stay for a group and they thought of everything. Would absolutely recommend and will keep in mind for future trips

Beautiful cabin by the lake and close to beaches. The place was clean and amazing we enjoyed our stay very much! Highly recommend

need a small get away? its the spot for sure. the grounds keeper is super helpful as well. quiet and peaceful

Cutest little house! Beautifully furnished, overall very peaceful and relaxing space.

My husband and I stayed 3 nights to celebrate our 25th anniversary. After going through many listings and reading guest comments, we decided to stay here. We wanted to be close to town, but we also wanted to enjoy relaxing in the outdoors. Her home is beautiful! Some guests mentioned that it was a bit outdated. We found it interesting. It was very well taken care of and very clean! We loved the floor to ceiling windows in the bedroom, the screened in porch, and all the windows facing the marsh and Kalamazoo River. It was so peaceful and EXACTLY what we needed. There were so many birds, squirrels, and even some muskrats playing in the river in the evening. We loved the fire ring next to the river. It felt very private even though there are neighbors on both sides, which you can't see too well in the photos. We stayed Mon.-Wed. and there was no one around. The only con is that the Hot Tub needs an upgrade. It didn't bother us as everything else was perfect.

This house was perfect for our family of 14. Everything we need was there, including items for our 15 month old. The beach area was amazing and the outdoor shower and hot tub were an added bonus.

Beautiful property!! We loved the privacy and enjoyed the surroundings. The hottub was a definite perk! Had a great time and hope to come back soon!

The loft was absolutely perfect! Everything was so clean! The beds were extremely comfortable! The amenities were over the top! Without a doubt, the best Airbnb experience I have ever had! Even in the instruction book, the host mentioned that they supplied disposable earplugs only because the loft is right in downtown Holland on eighth Street. They thought of everything!!! we absolutely loved the history and the music theme of the place! 10/10 without a doubt!! We will definitely be back!!

We had a great time with our family and dogs. The backyard was perfect and we had so much fun around the fire and hot tub. Would highly recommend and hope to stay again next year!

Peaceful getaway on Macatawa Bay in a gorgeous and very spacious house. Full of great equipment. Ideal location and the view on the Marina is stunning.

Mark’s place was fantastic, just what we needed for a fall getaway. It’s fully stocked and felt just like home. Next time we’ll have to stay longer!

This place is perfection! Leave the car at the rental and walk to downtown, the pier, and the beach. Great restaurants and free events within an easy stroll. The location is super quiet even though it’s close to all the action. Would absolutely stay here again AND recommend to friends and family! Perfect place for a respite from the hustle and bustle! Do yourself a favor and book yourself a stay with Tina.

This home was the perfect home base for my friend's bachelor weekend. The home was spacious, with a huge kitchen perfect for cooking breakfast for 9 guys. Everything was just as the listing and pictures described. The backyard was amazing - very private and great for a bonfire. The rooms offered plenty of space to relax sleep, with ample floor space for a few extra air mattresses. The best part was the location - only a 15 minute walk from two beautiful lake michigan beaches. Brian was very quick to respond to any inquiries I had, and you can tell they take care of the home. I would 100% book again!

Fantastic location, close to downtown but the loudest noise besides a little thunder were the waves hitting the beach. Definitely booking again.

Overall the place was absolutely amazing. It had everything we could have wanted - kitchen stuff, beach accessories, kids games and lots more. The main house is perfect for a group vacation, well lit, spacious, and homey. The walk to the beach can be a little challenging (the forest path was easier but still a little more than we expected. Probably 5 minutes including the dune). The beach is amazing- quiet, beautiful, perfect water. Little rocky in the beginning so maybe bring sandals. The outside area is so well equipped with a fire pit area, gas grill and coal grill and lots of sitting options for a perfect night next to the fire. The linens were fresh and clean as well as the towels. the only downside was the water in the house - there is hard water and it has a different smell and feel. However, that was literally the only downside, and we just bought bottled water for drinking (even though I don’t think it was necessary). Would definitely recommend and visit again -for longer!

This is our second stay at the cottage and the first stay we rated it a 5 star and we would rate higher this time if we could . We had a baby shower for our daughter and the cottage was PERFECT .

We had a peaceful stay. Very relaxing. Enjoyed visiting the west coast of Michigan. Would love to stay at this property again.

I have stayed twice for a local church conference at this Airbnb. They are so accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend and I will be back next year!

Lovely roomy Victorian in the heart of Holland. Well stocked kitchen with appliances and pots and pans. If it’s very hot the air conditioning is only on the second and third floors with a window unit in the kitchen. It was very comfortable when we visited but it was 70-80’s most of the trip.
