REVIEWS
"I stayed at the Hilltop Retreat for my wedding weekend, and it was the most fun and amazing weekend of my life. My bridal party was obsessed with the views from the house. We were able to walk to the beach, or sit on the porch and watch the waves crashing. It was so peaceful and incredible. Even amazing views from the bedrooms. 10/10 would stay again."

Ratings and reviews
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jun 2025
We really enjoyed our stay at the Hilltop property. The location (just up the block from the beach/Grand Haven State Park) and view were absolutely perfect! Walking downtown was easy and relatively quick (10-15 minutes, depending on your pace).Given the location on a hill, we knew that there would be some stairs to climb. If you have older members of your guest group, I would recommend using the back stairs off the additional parking in the shared driveway. Even then, by the end of our stay our older family members were struggling a bit, so something to keep in mind.Considering that this is an older property, which shows a little wear and tear, we were very happy with all of the accommodations and didn't have any problems/concerns. The only minor issue that we had is low water pressure in the upstairs bathroom, but again given the location I'm not sure how much that could be remedied.Overall, a great stay at a really fun property. For our next trip to Grand Haven we will probably look for something a little different to better accommodate our older family members, but it will definitely be an Unsalted property!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2024
The place was as advertised. Great location! The house needs updating, though. The appliances are all old and finicky. Overall - great experience!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2024
Very nice home. I only have one advise. Update the outlets as our cords fit very loosely. But it didn’t detract from the experience. I would rent this home again next year if we get lucky. BTW the gas for the grill was empty so we picked up an exchange tank so the next family has a full tank.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jun 2023
The location is great, just know going into it that the house is old and creaky. The water drains slow at all of the sinks, showers and toilets. Seating is not suited for large groups and not very comfortable. Not recommended for elderly or small children.
