Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Grand Rapids

Everything about this place is first class! I appreciate that Nicole spent a little extra to get high-quality mattresses. Huge difference, and a sign of a host who cares. This place will NOT disappoint!

Great stay! Will definitely try to stay again when we are in the area. The house was perfect for my little family

What a lovely little place! I enjoyed being on the water, definitely a hidden gem in Grand Rapids. A word of warning, there isn't an oven. This is in the description but if you're a skimmer (like me) it's easy to miss.

Megan’s space was beautifully kept, spacious, close to downtown and easy to find! Everything was super convenient and Megan provided lots of amenities. Definitely would stay here again. Thank you!!

The property is a private apartment in the basement of the main house. Beautiful 9 foot ceilings and appears to have been completely remodeled in the last year or two with high-end furnishings and decor. Very quiet waterfront properties surrounded by very nice homes. Everything you could want and more.

A stunning house architecturally; the view of the river through the trees from the floor-to-ceiling windows was fabulous. Even the indoor mirrors were carefully positioned to provide views of the outdoors. It rained for two days while we were there but we were content to stay inside and watch the river go by, while the chipmunks, squirrels, and birds busied themselves right outside the windows. Finally, the under-floor heating worked well.

Krista's place was amazing! It was incredibly clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Krista was a perfect host always available to answer questions and made us feel so welcome by having snacks and toiletries available which we certainly didn't expect but appreciated! We are looking forward to booking it again next year for another girls trip!

We had a truly lovely and peaceful weekend at Erica and Mark’s place. The setting is stunning—tucked into a quiet neighborhood surrounded by beautiful woods that bring a sense of calm and privacy from the moment you arrive. The space itself is welcoming, clean, and thoughtfully arranged, everything needed for a short restorative stay. Communication with our hosts was smooth and considerate throughout, from check-in to departure. They shared helpful instructions, made sure we felt welcome, and were very accommodating—including helping us locate an outdoor outlet for our EV setup. We especially appreciated the little touches: fresh water, coffee, and snacks, as well as the feeling of being entirely independent while knowing our hosts were available if needed. If you’re looking for a serene nature escape with the convenience of modern comfort, this is the perfect spot. Highly recommended—we would gladly return. Thank you Erica and Mark! All the best, — Charlotte & Mihir

It's a lodging that I want to give 10 out of 5 stars. The host was kind and if you responded quickly to the inquiry, the items were well-equipped. There was a nearby laundry room, so there was no inconvenience in long-term accommodation. The space was spacious and the water pressure was really good. Parking was easy, and there were golf courses, large discount stores, and shopping malls nearby within 10 to 20 minutes, so there were many things to enjoy. If you come back to this area, I'm going to find out Carolyn's accommodation first.

Enjoyed our stay in their well-laid-out and stylish place. Thanks!

Everything was squeaky clean and just as described. Would recommend 10/10!

Lovely Heritage Hill apartment. The space was spotless and exactly as advertised. A great place to stay if you are interested in enjoying the quietness and charm of the Heritage Hill neighborhood while still being close to downtown. Carolyn was extremely helpful and responsive to messages. I did not want to take away any stars for this, as it is not the fault of the hosts and may not bother others, but the air conditioning unit in the master bedroom (with the king bed) was quite loud and also has a very bright light that can’t be turned off. Just something to keep in mind for picky sleepers - I had some trouble with sleep due to that. The air conditioning units in the other rooms did not seem to have this issue. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend this place to others.

Jesse was formidable and always available. His place was clean, centrally located and his recommendations were useful. I would definitely book his apartment again.

The mother in law suite was perfect for my husband and I during our mini get away. The location was perfectly in the middle where we were able to visit both Holland and Saugatuk. It is smaller than expected but doesn’t feel crowded, it’s the right size for 2 people. The location is very quiet and private, and parking is right by the door. I believe it is a shared space to the house next door, but that was no biggie. As far as the highway noise, didn’t bother us at all. Being from the city, we are used to it but they did have a white noise machine which we tried out and worked well. Quiet, private & clean. 10/10.

Barbara’s place was great! It was super clean. She is an excellent communicator and very helpful. It was a short walk to downtown. We will definitely stay again when in Grand Rapids.

Kayla’s place was clean and charming! Super convenient location in a nice, quiet neighborhood. The beds were comfortable and she provided all the amenities needed and more! We look forward to staying again!

My family, including our two pugs, had a wonderful stay. The condo was pristinely clean and very tastefully decorated with all amenities as described. The info Mindy provided was extremely helpful and thoughtful. I had to text her at 6am regarding an issue, and she responded almost immediately. There is on-site parking, and the neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. There is no fenced yard, so pups have to be walked on a leash, but there is plenty of grass for them to do their business. The only thing I want to mention is that the condo is on a very busy road, so there is a lot of road noise. It didn’t bother us at all however, and we had 2 great nights of sleep. I very highly recommend this property if you are looking for a great stay in the Grand Rapids area.

Julian was very friendly and greeted us to hand us the keys personally. Place was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the k-cup selection was amazing. We would stay again

Nice condo in heart of Douglas. Would be great place during the "on season". I was there due to a power failure and its the off season so there's not many people around. Very clean place, newer appliances and great internet. Would rent again.

Great, comfortable stay in a great location. Fully stocked kitchen and Thanks Kristen for having some extras there for us- coffee, bagels & such! :)

This was my third stay at The Loft and there’s a reason I keep coming back for more! The Loft is the perfect little place to stay for a South Haven trip, right in the heart of downtown you are within walking distance of literally any and everything you could possibly want on your trip and the Loft itself is SO cute and cozy.

We had a great stay overall—the condo was clean, comfortable, and in a great location. Everything inside was as expected and made for an enjoyable visit. The only real disappointment was that we weren’t informed ahead of time that the building was being painted, which meant the balcony areas were completely covered in plastic and unusable during our stay. It’s likely the building notified residents in advance, so a heads-up would have been appreciated. Aside from that, everything else went smoothly.

Great place to stay! Place was very clean and close to bars, restaurants and shopping.

We had a lovely weekend stay at Steve’s place. The unit matched the description and was clean and welcoming. Steve went out of his way to provide local recommendations. Definitely recommend this spot!
