REVIEWS
"This was the 3 or 4th time we have used Unsalted for our family vacation and we have always been pleased. This time we were at Happe House A, and it was great. Its location could not be beat if you wanted to be on the Grand Haven State Park Beach. A two minute walk to the park. The home had great views from the two decks and the living room. It accommodated the 11 of us with no problems. The home is 98 years old so there are a few creaks, but is fixed up well. We'll be back."

"The house had everything we needed to fully enjoy our stay, including a lovely deck overlooking the beach and great views of the beautiful sunsets. The house was also perfectly located, right across the street from the Grand Haven State Park beach and the lovely riverwalk."

"Loved our stay, couldn’t ask for a better sunset view! Appreciated that the beds were all real beds and not pull outs and couch spaces like some other places we’ve stayed in before. Would love to come back again sometime!"

The property was perfect for our family with kids and grandchildren. The view is spectacular and the location is very convenient.
The only negative is that 2 small bathrooms are a challenge for 10 people.
Otherwise I would definitely recommend this property. 😀😀😀

Great Family Gathering Place
This historic cottage is well designed for family gatherings, including extensive space for socializing and awesome views of the lake. It sleeps many without feeling crowded and has easy access to all that Grand Haven offers. Our extended family loved it.

Beach getaway
This property is so beautiful and functional. The beach view is the best part. Really no issues. Fully stocked kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Quick and easy walk to the beach. Driving is even faster.

Great house and great location
The house was exactly as advertised! Great location in terms of proximity to beach and town. You also cannot beat the view of Lake Michigan!

Wonderful!
We had a wonderful time in Grand Haven. The location is amazing- across the street from the beach. The house is a cute old house that has been updated. Plenty of space for adults and kids to sleep. Beds were comfortable. The decks have an incredible view of the lake and sunset. Kitchen has everything you need. Only thing to note is due to the old house the floors are creaky... which mostly just impacts the downstairs bedroom at night. Otherwise, amazing rental and would come back!

Awesome location
Amazing location with incredible views of Lake Michigan. Fantastic common area with comfy couches and a great deck. Bedrooms and baths are a bit dated, but the property has room to sleep a large crew. Great for a large group, plenty of areas to relax and not be on top of each other. Very professional check in and out process.

Reviewer Comments:
I spent many summers at the cottage across Emmett Court while growing up. Now,after renting a few unsatisfactory places in the past few years, we were thrilled to find Happe House. The changes that were made, including expanding the living area, were terrific. Plenty of room for all of us. One suggestion: put a hose/shower head in the first floor shower. It is a very tight area and being able to manipulate the shower would be very helpful. And there is not a better place to watch the sunsets than from the large deck facing Lake Michigan.

We were so pleased with the spaciousness of the house, the windows, the view, the deck! Everyone in my family had their own bedroom (including my 96 yr old mother who had her own room on the main floor). The house has history which appealed to some of my family members. The floors creaked, the doors squeaked, but all added to the charm. My Unsalted rep bent over backwards to personally appeal to our requests.

Reviewer Comments:
Very nice place. It's a mix of old world charm mixed in with convinces for today. The cottage is lovely and it's located right across from the State Park. The only drawback is that in Sept. the maintenance crews for the State Park descend to do their work on the parking lot, removing a shed and anything else needed in the area and it's really noisy, especially at 7:00 am when the trucks and machines pull in to begin their day.

Great family place
We had 4 adults and 4 children. There was plenty of room for all of us. I was surprised there was no beach supplies - at all. No beach towels, chairs, toys and balls. We bought some and took them home . Other beach rentals has these supplies. It would have been nice to have them at the cottage. We hope to return next year.

Perfect location, amazing views of Lake Michigan. You could walk to the beach and into town. We also drove to several nearby sites. The house had everything we needed. Only compliant is that it's an older house so it is creaky and you can hear everything going on. Otherwise clean, with lots of room.

Very happe (happy) at this location. The house was a perfect location to enjoy the beach. The views from the huge great room was magnificent. We enjoyed family dinners and family games that made wonderful memories. We did have 3 nights that the air conditioner would not keep up. The temperature was 84 in the upstairs bedrooms making for an uncomfortable experience.
