2025 Season is here to book your place on Lake Michigan

Grand Haven cottage description
Seeking a Lake Michigan cottage with spectacular views of the Lake and sunsets from your deck? Pair-A-Dice is the quaint cottage in Grand Haven, Michigan on the quiet, peaceful south section of Highland Park just for you and your family and friends.

Your cottage is a three-minute drive to downtown Grand Haven. Or better yet, it is a relaxing 15-minute walk along a safe boardwalk to the Grand Haven waterfront. During your walk, you will experience the beautiful vistas of Lake Michigan and the Grand River along your way.

Built in 1906, the cottage is a historic landmark in Highland Park. Pair-A-Dice retains much of its original charm as many items in the cottage are original. More than 100 cottages are tucked in the sand dunes of this area with a system of boardwalks and walkways built throughout the natural preserve. Pair-A-Dice, one of the few cottages overlooking Lake Michigan and her beach, offers its guests the beautiful sunsets on your large private deck while you drink, dine and scream for ice cream. For quick, safe, and easy access, just step on down the Highland Park Boardwalk to arrive at your beach.

Enjoy watching the Grand Haven Pier’s catwalk lite up at night looking like a string of pearls. Take a midnight stroll through Highland Park or dip in the lake below. Fall asleep with the sound of the waves and enjoy the cool fresh lake breeze. Awaken to the romantic sound of the Pier’s foghorn on the mornings the boaters and fishermen need visual assistance.

A screened-in front porch, with an attached deck, are ideal for reading, sunset watching, and experiencing the fall storms as they rumble in over Lake Michigan. Please close the windows or you will get wet. There is a small back porch for storage, for your bikes, coolers, beach bags, fishing poles and kites.

Enjoy five bedrooms, one full bath downstairs and one full bathroom upstairs. The upstairs has a deluxe new bathroom (2016) with a separate shower/bath and toilet with vanity. Also, this addition added a bedroom off the bathroom hallway. Three bedrooms have full beds, one bedroom has a set of twin beds and a fifth bedroom has sailor bunk beds. The cottage sleeps eight adults and two children comfortably. Two bedrooms have lake views while you are resting in bed. The new addition bedroom overlooks the protected sand dune nature preserve.

September is the locals’ time to be swimming and fishing for Salmon in the Lake. Often the water is warmer than the air and the waves are perfect for body surfing, or watching the surfers. The beach crowds are gone however the city is still open with mostly local characters.

Wonderful view
All aspects of this property met our expectations except for the bedroom situation. The property is listed as 5 bedrooms, but only one bedroom (new addition) has full walls. The other 4 bedrooms have open rafter ceiling which makes each room connected as far as noise is concerned. If you are traveling with other couples, this may not be advantageous. That being said, the location is great and the view from the deck is lovely. Jay is also a very gracious host.

Amazing Grand Haven Cottage
We had a great time at the cottage. The back porch is beautiful and looks out right over the lake and pier- perfect for family dinner and sunsets. Cottage is great walking/biking location from beach. The owner checked in regularly and was available throughout our stay. Would definitely stay here again.

Para dice!! Was paradise !!!!
We enjoyed an amazing stay at Pair of Dice.. the home. Is an older classic home with beautiful wood floors, tons of windows and tons of light! The back deck overlooked the Lake and we enjoyed many sunsets and relaxation there everyday. The location was close to everything in Grand Haven and the boardwalks allow you to walk all around the area- this is a great place for bikers and hikers..and Jay was an incredible host always checking to see if we needed anything and how our stay was going. There’s a grill and fully equipped kitchen and if you’re missing anything Jay will get it for you! I can’t say enough about the rental and the only thing it took getting used to was no air conditioning. It wasn’t a big deal because the air off the lake cools the house down pretty quick, and we weren’t there most of the day time anyways . This is also a quick drive to Saugatuck, South Haven is 40-45 mins and Holland has many restaurants and entertainment too. Thanks for a wonderful vacation Jay!

Vintage charm in an amazing location!
This place is a quintessential beach house, filled with historic character. The location is perfect with a boardwalk that ends right on the beach. The house is located on the bluff directly above the beach with incredible views. It is also a quick drive to downtown Grand Haven. A few things to consider: * Four bedrooms have partial height walls, sharing a common ceiling and common overhead light - bring sound machines to help with the noise transfer between rooms! * While the listing accommodates a fair number of people, each room is very tiny. Dining table and living room each accommodate only 6 at a time. Deck is slightly larger but still a bit tight. * Kitchen is very small with limited counter space. Oven temp was inconsistent which made cooking a bit challenging. * The grill on the deck was not working. Jay made an attempt to fix it during our stay but unfortunately it still didn’t work. Overall, Jay was a very attentive host and we loved our stay!

Quaint Sunset
We only stayed two nights but left wishing for more. An older cottage with history and nostalgic of the Grand Haven area. Took me back to my childhood years of summers at Grand Haven beach! Our grand children loved swimming in Lake Michigan which was just down the stairs and across the street. Best views of the Lake and sunsets. Everyone we met was super friendly!

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful time at Pair-a-dice. We came form 5 states to enjoy quality family time at this sweet cottage. We ate almost every meal out on the porch enjoying the fantastic view of Lake Michigan (and the beautiful sunsets.) The steps were a little daunting at first but each day they were easier to climb. The view is well worth any stairs. We also enjoyed the each private beach access as well the short drive to restaurants and shopping. Jay was a wonderful host - answering all of our questions and ensuring we have a fantastic visit. He recommended the farmer's market - we bought fresh fruit and vegetables for our stay. And, were fortunate enough to be in town during strawberry season. They were the best strawberries we have ever had.

Girls Getaway for a Fabulous 40th
Charming historic lake home with water views. Easy walk to beach, restaurant, and light house. Jay went out of his way to book a last minute dinner reservation for our group of 9. It was a wonderful time with beach walking, cycle boating, shopping, and eating and drinking. It was the first time for all of us in Grand Haven, and we really enjoyed it! Heads up: If there are mobility issues, this would not be a place for you due to the many stairs to climb to get to the house, beach, etc. Another consideration is the parking. The 2 parking spots were great but our group came from several locations, so we had 5 vehicles requiring a lot of shuffling when we wanted to get out and explore. All in all, it was a great stay and accommodated our group of 10 very well.

Beautiful view, excellent host
We had 2 families (10 people) stay at this home. It was perfect. The view was great, the location was in walking distance from town and Jay was an excellent host. He greeted us when we arrived, stopped by the next day to warn us about the potential storm and brought us supplies when we ran out. The beds are fulls and there is an open ceiling where the bedrooms are, so you hear everyone, but that actually added to the fun. Thanks for the great vacation Jay!

Grand Haven Beach Getaway
Property was very adequate for our purposes. Family get together near the beach. View was awesome and enough amenities for cooking and grilling and plenty of beds. Great views requires some steps to the top of dune where cottage is located. Short walk to the beach down to the beach requires more steps. The City Park Beach however has free parking if you need to haul stuff. Just get there early.. especially on weekends. All the beds were extremely comfortable and despite having no AC, the temperature at night during our stay in late June was extremely comfortable and there were plenty of fans available. Jay was a great host and made a personal visit to make sure everything was okay. I would have no problem visiting this town or property again.
