Dermshire Forest Area

Dermshire Forest Area spreads across 1,224 acres of ranch homes, most built in the classic single-story style that defines this corner of Grand Haven charter township. The neighborhood sits close enough to the Grand Haven beach—less than 8 minutes by car—that you can catch sunset from the pier without much planning, yet it's far enough south to feel like its own place, separate from the tourist pull of the city itself. Schools here feed into Grand Haven Area Public Schools, and homes run around $425K. Mercury Park sits under a mile away, and there are four parks within walking distance if you want green space without leaving the area. A grocery store is 1.2 miles out, and if you're hungry, there are 48 restaurants within a mile—a 10-minute walk gets you coffee, an 11-minute walk gets you dinner. For anyone with a boat, Scott Flahive Memorial Launch is 1.7 miles south. Downtown Grand Rapids is under 50 minutes by car when you need it.
