BEDROOMS ARE MADE WITH COMFORT IN MIND
Four beautiful themed bedrooms await you. The upstairs bedrooms have smart tv's--just in case you need some quiet time away from friends and family. All four bedrooms have top quality king mattresses and WIRELESS PHONE CHARGERS on each night stand. The master bedroom (the HOLLAND room) has an en-suite with double sink and large rainfall shower with high windows and skylights. All shades in the master bedroom are controlled by remote controls. The MACATAWA and SAUGATUCK rooms have beautiful windows and furnishings. A full bathroom lies between these two bedrooms. The WOODLAND room in the den/ basement has a beautiful view of the surrounding woods. The bonus room has 2 couches that convert to twin foam mattresses. Another full bathroom is located between WOODLAND and the bonus room. Finally, 2 portable memory foam twin mattresses with linens are available if needed.
LAUNDRY IS NO PROBLEM
Although you are on vacation to relax sometimes you just need to run a quick load of laundry. We installed 2 washers and 2 dryers to help alleviate the congestion of a large group.
WHERE CAN I PARK?
We provide for all guests a two car garage with garage door openers! There is also ample parking in the driveway for additional vehicles should you need more space.
FUN STUFF TO DO? OF COURSE--IT'S HOLLAND!
The things we love the most about this home, besides the house itself, are the local accommodations. We have two full wooded acres and a stream in the far back of the property. Lots of wildlife, especially turkey, squirrels, deer, and woodpeckers, make our two acres their home. Walk up the street for a few hundred feet and you will find Sanctuary woods, a nature preserve with trails and bridges. In addition, there is a bike path directly in front of our home. You will see joggers and bikers and people walking their dogs most of the day. The bike trail network in the Holland area is extensive and runs for many many miles in all directions. Bike rentals are available locally, and the marina is just a one minute drive north. There you can rent slips for even very large boats that you can take directly onto Lake Macatawa, or even Lake Michigan, which is just a stone's throw away from the shipyard. A boat rental company is adjacent to the shipyard. There you can rent boats (of all types), paddle boards, kayaks and more. Lake Michigan has limited public access sites, so we are fortunate to be a mere 6 minutes from Laketown Beach. A little drive will get you to larger parks--Saugatuck Dunes, Oval Beach, or Holland State Park. You can get to beautiful downtown 8th street Holland in less than 14 minutes and quaint downtown Saugatuck also in 14 minutes. Both places have fantastic restaurants and shopping. There are so many things to do and see in the Holland area! Please review our detailed welcome book for our personal choices for restaurants, entertainment, and more!

We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t recommend this property more! This rental had everything possible that we needed or wanted—hottub, ping pong, comfortable beds, plenty of space, all the things you need in a kitchen and so much more! We will definitely be coming back to stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay at the Holland Luxury Retreat. Jayne was great and provided a welcome book in advance of our visit with recommendations. Great location, really well thought out amenities. The property had everything we needed. We spent a lot of time in the outdoor space which we really enjoyed. Overall, great stay for all ages!
You will find everything you need for a relaxing get away here. It is well equipped with the comforts of home. The hosts are very communicative, and take great pride in their home and it shows. Our favorite place was the expansive back deck that overlooked the beautiful gardens. Deer and turkey wandered through regularly.
We stayed at Jaynes home for a family weekend and couldn’t have picked a better spot. Upon arriving, the house was incredibly clean and spacious. The bedrooms all had comfortable beds. The kitchen was stocked with any equipment you could possibly need and we cooked A LOT! The hot tub and fire pit area were excellent touches, especially since our weather wasn’t perfect. It was a 5 minute drive to an easy market for most things we needed. We will be back for sure!
This was one of the best houses we’ve had the pleasure of renting. The hosts clearly thought of everything you may need during your stay. The home was spacious to provide moments of peacefulness and places to gather for family time. We enjoyed hiking Sanctuary Woods a few steps north from the home, and riding our bikes towards town. A 5 minute drive to Laketown Beach yielded a fabulous spot for sunset watching atop the dunes. Overall, this property is in a great location, terrifically scenic, and full of modern amenities to make your vacation great—we would love to return!
My siblings and our spouses visited Holland in October 2023. The space is perfect for 4 couples to occupy with privacy. The home is exactly as described, and everything you need is there! The owners of the home provide a wonderful guidebook with instructions and reviews of lots of places to eat and visit. The deck and backyard are fabulous. We had rain and didn't get to use them. This a lovely home, and I would return.

The home is as advertised! Many thoughtful touches makes this a place that allowed us to relax and enjoy our time as a family. It was a wonderful week!
This house was perfect for an extended family getaway. The communication with the property owner was great, the photos were true to the space and most importantly the beds were very comfortable. The welcome basket was a nice touch. Highly recommend this property.
My extended family stayed at this lovely home in June of 2025. The house was immaculate and everyone was comfortable. The house included 4 bedrooms with all King beds and a set of bunkbeds. The adults and children had there own space which was perfect.The kitchen has high end appliances and an extra fridge in the garage. If you are looking to stay in the Holland - Saugautuck area this is a real winner.
Our experience for our extended family staying in the area for my daughters wedding was amazing. Everything we needed.
Comfort, space and super convenient to Holland. The was great super clean with all the needed amenities.
We had a wonderful stay with our family in this beautiful property. The house has everything you need, everything is labeled and easy to locate. The house is very clean and organized and even had a great video game in the basement. The hot tub was awesome we used it everyday. We would definitely stay here again.
Can’t say enough good about Jayne and The Holland Retreat! 5 stars is not sufficient, but will have to do. From amazing communication before and during our stay to the appointments of the house and location! We are experienced VRBO travelers and this stay ranks with the highest we’ve experienced! Definitely the ideal place for our visit!
Thank you Jayne! We brought out 3 generations of mothers and the home kept everyone entertained. Great communication with the host, who had an awesome wall-mounted information center! Well stocked and very clean, we would love to go back!
Six of us stayed 5 days in this beautiful house. Our host, Jayne was always in touch with us and made everything easy. She was a real pleasure to work with. The house was comfortable and had every amenity you could want. We all loved this vacation.
Perfectly appointed kitchen, all king size beds, all appliances worked well, very well maintained. Great spacious porch. Hot tub and fire pit. Next time we’ll use the ping pong table. Plenty of space for everyone. Good setting and location. Wonderful town of Holland, Michigan.
We thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving weekend at Holland Retreat. The home is very clean and well stocked with all necessities. The kitchen is large and well equipped - the drawers are even labeled to ensure everything is where it belongs! Many amenities. Great family home. Limited dining room space for larger gatherings, but accommodates 8-10 people comfortably. Would definitely return for future stays in Holland MI.
We could not have been more pleased with our stay at this beautiful house. It is extremely clean, has wonderful amenities and the owners are super organized. They were amazing hosts and so easy to communicate with. We were looking for a special spot to celebrate my parent's 70th anniversary and we were so happy we made the perfect choice. This home is absolutely gorgeous, completely updated, well appointed, and the location is very convenient. The hot tub, large deck and fire table were fun additions and used frequently!
This home has it all! We had a really comfortable stay in this close to it all home. We wanted for nothing. Amenities were easy to find, operate and all in working condition. The outdoor areas with the fire pit, deck with grill and hot tub were all beautifully kept with lovely landscaping. The home is spotless and owners are responsive and sweet as can be. Thank you for a memorable stay. We can’t wait to return for another fun family vacation!
What an amazing retreat! We (6 Adults, 3 Children) came to the house to celebrate a birthday, and this place was exactly what we wanted and hoped for. Four king beds made the rooms very accessible and comfortable. The basement and outdoor amenities (hot tub!) were very well used. The kitchen and grill were well stocked and ready for our big meal. The house was private and in the shade (which helped with the heat), and close to both Holland and Saugatuck. The check-in display, with the associated videos describing how to use each item, was a nice touch. We all agreed we'd come here again in a heartbeat!
We had a family gathering here. We used 2 of the 3 upstairs bedrooms, plus the bedroom on the lower level so each couple had their own bathroom. All also had king beds, a plus. The arcade game was fun and several people tried out the hot tub. We also had a lovely evening around the gas fire pit. The host was great to work with. She had the most accessible, user friendly booklet and e-wall display with the main information for using appliances and check-out. Very helpful!
The Holland Retreat was a perfect destination for our family trip. The home was spacious and comfortable. We had plenty of room for the six adults and three children in our group.
We had short drives to Saugatuck (Oval Beach, Sailing Saugatuck, and dining) and downtown Holland (shopping and dining). The spacious deck accommodated the full crew for meals and the basement was a perfect play area for the kids. The owners were professional and responsive. They provided
useful information regarding sights to see and enjoy in the greater Holland area. The Holland Retreat will be at the top of our list when we return to southwest Michigan.
This property is a hidden gem nestled just a few miles from the City of Holland and is strategically located within a short drive of Saugatuck, Fennville, and Grand Haven. It has wonderful amenities with the property, extremely clean, and well maintained. The owners clearly care about their property and have add a few additional touches to enhance your stay. It has four large bedrooms with comfortable beds and a small bunk area if needed. The kitchen is spacious and includes a commercial grade stove. For us the ultimate test is whether we would return and the answer is a resounding -- yes.
