Bay View
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $665K·Walkability 5.0/10·Schools 8.0/10
A modest grid of tree-lined streets anchors Bay View, a 9-acre subdivision where lots average a fifth of an acre and homes center around $754K. Restaurants cluster within walking distance—a coffee shop sits about 15 minutes on foot, and two dozen dining options lie within a mile—while Holland State Park is just a 13-minute walk away, giving the area real outdoor reach despite its small footprint. Lake Macatawa lies about two miles south, and West Ottawa Public School District serves the subdivision. The Bay Meadows Area surrounds it, and for beach trips, Grand Haven is roughly half an hour by car.
