Solid value in a growing area

When you turn onto The Cottages, you feel the pace shift—wide open sky, mature trees, and enough breathing room that neighbors aren't stacked on top of each other on these 36 acres. The condos here run around $922K, and homes sit on generous quarter-acre lots, which means actual yards and sight lines to green space rather than the next driveway over. You're about 8 minutes from Grand Haven beach, so lake access isn't some distant plan—it's an actual weekend rhythm. Downtown Grand Rapids is 46 minutes away if you want city culture, but day-to-day, this feels like its own world.
