Family-friendly vacation rentals in Lake Macatawa

Was an absolutely relaxing stay. It was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. An extended weekend away with a bunch of things around us to do. It had a little bit of everything around us, including privacy. It was fantastic.

Absolutely Loved Our Stay! We had such a great time at this adorable Airbnb! The place is decorated so cute—every detail felt thoughtfully curated and cozy, with a really fun and welcoming vibe. One of our favorite touches was the bright yellow refrigerator—it adds so much charm and character to the space, and honestly made us smile every time we saw it! The outdoor amenities were amazing. You can spend your evenings relaxing in the hot tub and hanging out by the fire pit under the stars—it’s peaceful, private, and the perfect way to wind down after a day of exploring. Speaking of exploring, the location couldn’t have been better. The nearby town is absolutely beautiful, full of great restaurants, cute shops, and some incredible wineries. We loved being able to enjoy a day of wine tasting and then come back to such a relaxing and stylish home. Highly recommend staying here—we're already talking about planning our next visit!

The most beautiful view that I have ever woken up to! It’s not every day you see 100 Sandhill cranes flying too. Great location.

Ethan’s place was great for our short weekend getaway. It’s was clean and well kept. Had nice towels, tissues, TP, soap, dispose, garbage bags. Exit instructions were clear. One item to be aware of (which can be seen from the pics) is that the property does include stairs for getting in/out. This was not a problem for our group but is something to note if you have folks with mobility restrictions in your group.

This is our 3rd stay at Steve and Lori’s loft condo. Perfect for our needs for Homecoming/Parents weekend at Hope College. Unique doesn’t do it justice in description. It comes with an awesome story. The condo is perfect in every way. Kitchen is filled with every gadget, beds are very comfortable, sitting areas are comfy & cozy, outside deck with hot tub is private and spacious, location on 8th Street is optimal for dining, shopping and entertainment. We will stay again and again.

There simply aren’t enough words to describe just how much I loved staying in the Fenvilla! A total dream come true, a top tier oasis that is was clean, cosy, and so comfortable. This is by far my favorite airbnb I have ever stayed in throughout my ten years of doing so, even with staying in homes all across the country. There is something so beyond special about this place and how Kim has transformed it into the haven it is. The screened in porch & hot tub, the sounds of nature, the artwork and beautiful ceramics - the attention to detail here was immaculate. My friends and I were all blown away by this experience and all want to return as soon as we can. Thank you so much Kim for having us in your sanctuary, it was truly the perfect vacation and one I will never forget.

Great location and area! Easy drive into downtown Fennville and Saugatuck/Douglas which have great restaurants, wineries, and shopping. The house itself was lovely with it's spacious open concept, it was clean and well kept, had a beautiful yard and deck that is surrounded by mature pines which gives you a great sense of privacy, and Lake Michigan is just up the road! Bob was very accommodating and quick to respond when communicating. Would highly recommend staying at this location!

This place is great! It was just a few of us staying for the weekend, and being close to the yacht club and the beach was great. The place was clean and the hot tub was fantastic. Thanks for a great weekend!

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was perfect and so close to things to do. Kim was a great and gracious house about our dog.

Clean, bright and cheerful! Nice firm mattress. Responsive to questions and very helpful. Our stay was great.

We had a fantastic stay! The space was clean, spacious, and well-equipped with thoughtful extras that made traveling even easier. The host was incredibly friendly and communicative, ensuring we had everything we needed. One of the highlights was the fenced-in yard, which was perfect for our dog. We truly appreciated all the little details that made this stay comfortable and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Very beautiful place. Secluded and peaceful, perfect for a quiet weekend away. Has a cute little town not too far away with plenty of places to eat and activities to participate in. Would definitely come back!

Cute little home in a prime location. It’s only a 5-10min drive to the beach, grocery store, gym, restaurants & breweries. The home is equipped for essential needs such as laundry & cooking. My roommate & I stayed here for a month during winter & when it snowed, they were generous to have someone come out to plow the driveway. If there was anything I needed, Dillan was quick to reply to my messages. You’ll love your stay, here.

We had an excellent time as a family at David's cabin. Everything was as advertised, and more. David was very proactive in communicating with us and responsive to any questions we had. The cabin was really, really beautiful, with peaceful surroundings and all the comforts of a well appointed home. David was clear about the pet policy and our dog was clearly welcome in the home. David left really nice touches for the humans as well, with cookies and muffins on our arrival. The house was well stocked with everything we needed, and we are particularly impressed with how well everything is labeled...light switches, cupboard doors, electronics, etc. Very, very well done. We enjoyed our long weekend, winter escape!

This was such a cute and cozy stay! The location was great and super close to everything we needed (restaurants/coffee shops/bookstore/etc). The house was adorable and perfect for our girls trip. Would definitely stay here again.

Such a sweet little house in one of my favorite places to visit. I was so impressed with the details of the windows and woodworking. The location is close to both Douglas and Saugatuck as well as the beach. We didn’t bring our bikes on this trip because it wasn’t quite warm enough, but this would be an ideal location for biking everywhere. Also, there is a view of the river and a lovely deck. Just perfect.

We had a great time here. The condo is in a good location and very clean and neat. The bed was comfortable. We didn’t utilize the pool or hot tub but we did scope it out. It looks like a great area to watch the boats come in and out of the harbor.

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!

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!

My friend and I loved the place Great end unit wonderful spaces to sit outdoors and relax Beds were comfortable

Jennifer’s house was incredible for our 2 family vacation. The kids had an amazing time kayaking and splashing in the pool, and it was wonderful that they had plenty of books, toys, and games available. The adults enjoyed the separate living rooms, beautiful back porch, and well-stocked kitchen. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. There is an uncrowded beach just a mile down the road with easy parking and nearby Holland had plenty of shopping and great restaurants.

Great location in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown and restaurants. The kitchen was well equipped. The rooms were comfortable. The backyard was fenced in and good to let our small dog run around in.

As always Linda and Kourtney were great. Second time staying here and everything was just as awesome as the first time. Thanks again

Brian was a great host, very responsive and helpful with getting us checked in and throughout our stay. The house was great for our group of 8, plenty of space and very easy to find. We were able to walk to the closest beach in 10-15 minutes, and the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. Pool access was very nice as well and close to the house. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay here again in the future!
