Just 10 minutes away are the 19+ miles of cross country ski trails for all levels at the Allegan State Game Area. The city of Holland (20 min) offers snow free streets (they're HEATED) and cobblestone sidewalks with lots of shops, galleries and microbreweries. The Holland Aquatic Center offers several pools, a spa, sauna, lazy river and splash pool/slides for a very reasonable day rate year round.

In Fennville you'll find great food, local wine and in season a spectacular wildflower meadow. Or stay inside and enjoy being unplugged and cozy in the comfy, casual living area. Read a book, play a board game (we have several to choose from) or make your favorite recipe in the well appointed kitchen. There's an outdoor fire pit (wood provided) and small propane grill as well. Other things to note Please be aware the schoolhouse is located on a corner lot. There is a roadway quite close and although we've done our best to reduce road noise, there will be some. Thankfully traffic generally dies down early in the evening in this area. The schoolhouse is not suitable for young children, ironically. The schoolhouse isn't suited to anyone with difficulty with stairs as the bedroom is up a staircase.
