This 11-acre subdivision sits right next to Sunnyside Park, which means green space is literally at your door—no car required for a quick walk or to let the kids burn off energy. The area's built on traditional homes with HardiPlank siding, and you're about six minutes from Grand Haven beach when the lake calls, or a quick mile to grocery and all the shopping you'd need. Spring Lake itself is just over a mile away, and the neighborhood has serious dining density—66 restaurants within walking distance, from a 14-minute stroll to casual spots to full sit-down options that don't require much of a drive. With 11 parks tucked within a mile and West MI Academy of Arts and Academics serving the area, this stretch of Harbor Point Area balances accessible convenience with the kind of outdoor access that makes weekends easy. Downtown Grand Rapids is a straightforward 43-minute drive when you need it.
