We are less than a mile from the Lake Michigan shoreline and about two miles north of Lake Macatawa. We live on 1 acre at the end of a dead-end road in an older quiet subdivision next to a 40-acre nature preserve. When the leaves are on the trees our neighbors almost disappear creating our little "hole-in-the-woods". Downtown Holland is about 7 miles away and the Big Red Lighthouse & Holland State Park pier is less than 3 miles away. There is a whole network of paved bike paths in our area that can be accessed from our location. Numerous parks are within a short distance, with beaches, walking trails, soccer fields, pickleball, disk golf, four square and tennis courts, playgrounds, etc. Note: Typically is about 5 - 10 degrees cooler here by Lake Michigan (or more...depending on the wind) so, plan accordingly 😊. There is $10 dump at the State Park just 2 miles away or at Loves on east side of Holland, a laundromat 3 miles east of us and multiple propane refill stations within a short drive. Cell signal at our location is fairly decent for AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile not sure about others however, there is very little or none right at the Lake Michigan Lakeshore for plan accordingly :). Suggested Local Attractions: I've created a lengthy list of things to do in our area and frequently share it with visitors. Let me know if you are interested.

Location

Access Road Conditions: We live at the end of a dead-end road. There are two 90-degree corners and no regular turnaround. The maximum rig height is about 12' because our driveway has tree branches that are overhanging... Turning around on our cement driveway is possible with a short motorhome (max 27') or travel trailer (up to 22' long) but you need to be good at backing & maneuvering. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: parking in front of or behind your rig or in another area on the property.

A quiet couple taking a road less traveled... Details: We work hard and DIY most household/RV projects. We love to learn, bike, walk/hike, meet interesting people, and explore. We enjoy photography, things that bloom, and watching sunsets over Lake Michigan or where ever we happen to be. Home Town: Holland is known for its spring Tulip Festival. The Lake Michigan shore is a very popular summer tourist stop. We live north of town on one acre in a residential community, next to a nature preserve and less than one mile from Lake Michigan shoreline and about 2 miles north of Lake Macatawa. We love it here...although the cold months are not our favorite...beautiful but COLD. There is a whole network of paved bike paths in our area that can be accessed from our location.

    We enjoyed staying two nights at Hole in the Woods. The hosts are very gracious and we had several conversations with them. They pointed out several things to do in the area. Their setting is quiet and peaceful.

    Close to the culture, cafes and vintage vibe of downtown Holland, Hole in the Woods is the perfect space to unwind. Easy parking, wonderful hosts, massive trees and a guaranteed quiet night’s sleep. I’ll definitely be back 🌳! Be sure to check out the Holland Restaurant for breakfast and Ottowa Beach @ the Holland State Park. Stunning!
