Ottawa Townhomes
Surrounded by nature
Walkability 5.5/10·Schools 4.6/10
What catches people off guard about Ottawa Townhomes is how connected it feels despite being a compact, one-acre development. You're steps from transit and surrounded by fifty-four restaurants within a mile—everything from quick bites to sit-down spots—yet the townhomes themselves sit on quiet ground with room to breathe. The Heinz Waterfront Walkway is a seven-minute walk away, and there are seven parks within a mile, so green space isn't hard to find. Lake Macatawa sits less than two miles out if you're craving bigger water views. The location does mean you're relying on a car for some errands; a grocery store is about a fourteen-minute walk, and the nearest coffee shop about nine, but the immediate neighborhood has enough restaurants and services that you won't feel stranded.
