My family and I had an awesome time at this cottage. The house was comfortable and more than adequate for our family of 11 ( 6 adults and 5 children). We rented "off" season and found the view of the ice on Lake Michigan to be gorgeous. The kitchen was well stocked with any dishes, etc. that were needed. The young children with us were delighted with the toys available. Being a first time renter, I found the owner (Gail) to be especially helpful and easy to work with. She responded very promptly to all questions and correspondence. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home. Will consider renting this cottage again.

I just stayed in the house for my wedding. Everything was beautiful and accommodating! The sunset over the water is just breathtaking- everyone had a wonderful stay.

We loved our stay at Ventura Pines Cottage! My husband, baby and myself stayed there for a week long vacation. We celebrated our anniversary and invited some friends to stay with us as well. The guests kept commenting on how beautiful the cottage was. We only had one other family stay with us at a time, but there was more than enough space for a few families to visit at once. Highlights were the beautiful views from every window and the beach (the lake was nice a warm). Ventura Pines Cottage provided many opportunities to relax - you could find me under a tree in one of the two hammocks reading a book while listening to the waves for the good part of a few days. There also are many activities that you an enjoy like riding on the hilly shaded bike trails, and going to downtown Holland. The lake was perfect in late August. We can't wait to return to our new favorite place.

We had a multi-generational family reunion here, around 14 people ages 3-70. This was a very fun house with a good kitchen (plus another if you need it), a large comfortable dining table, and plenty of common areas to play and talk including a large screened porch. The highlight was the big yard, where the kids could play and even fly kites. We also went down to the beach and swam a few days. Easy road trips to Holland, Grand Haven, and even Muskegon. If you've got a large group we recommend this house.

We had our wedding here on June 1st 2017. Everything was perfect!!! A great place to stay! We had our honeymoon here as well. Proximity to downtown Holland, Grand Haven and Saugatuck is a major bonus! It was very clean and they even had the lawn mowed the day before our wedding. The view over Lake Michigan is so dynamic! Gail is extremely easy to work with. We'd give it 10 stars if we could!
