🏔️ All Season
The Viewhouse is a four-season getaway—close to the water, downtown Grand Haven, and endless natural adventures. In the spring, enjoy walks and bike rides along the lake and nearby trails. During summer, beach days on Lake Michigan, boating/paddling, and sunset pier strolls are a must. Fall brings colorful hikes, farmers’ markets, and harvest-season exploring, while the winter is great for family-friendly skiing (Mulligan's Hollow is 13 minutes away), snowy trail walks, cross-country skiing, or snowshoeing nearby, then warming up back at home.
Important Note: please do not climb on the dunes — they are environmentally protected. Ottawa Sands Park offers beautiful walking paths and views, accessible through designated entrances.
Guest Access:
You and your guests will have access to the entire property. With our keyless entry, you can enjoy a flexible check-in any time after the designated check-in time on your arrival date and guests can conveniently gain access via the smart lock as well.
The Neighborhood:
Nestled on the western edge of Spring Lake, just off Lake Michigan, this home offers a perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. Take a leisurely 3-minute stroll to your private community beach, or head to nearby North Shore Beach for swimming, sunbathing, and sandcastle building. The Viewhouse sits equidistant between downtown Spring Lake and downtown Grand Haven, so you can easily enjoy the best of both. Browse farmers markets in Spring Lake, catch live events, or join the excitement of Grand Haven’s annual Coast Guard Festival. For water lovers, boat and kayak rentals along the Grand River make it easy to set sail and soak in the beauty of Michigan’s waterways.
Getting Around:
The Viewhouse is best reached by car, with parking provided on-site. Biking is also a popular way to explore Spring Lake and Grand Haven, with scenic trails connecting the two communities. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are available in the area, though having your own car is the most convenient way to get around.
