Gorgeous lakeshore perch
The location of the property and the lakeshore view and access are marvelous! The simple cottage has a sort of quirky old world charm which is something we grew to love. If you are traveling with people who have difficulty with stairs, the cottage may not be an appropriate match. Rather steep narrow set of stairs to only bathroom inside house on the upper floor. Also stairs on outside of house to enter cottage and to the cellar where second bath is located. Also, a steep set of stairs to access the lakeshore. We would definitely revisit Holland Hideaway, but if our elderly parents were traveling with us, doing so would not be an option. We absolutely loved Holland and the wide variety of Unsalted experiences that we enjoyed! Thank you!

Very rustic older lake cottage. Beautiful deck and view
This property is very rustic and older. No air conditioning for future guests. It was cool weather for us so it was nice with all the windows open. Beautiful views from a great deck. The beach area is not the best so we went to the state park to swim.
