Park Township is Ottawa County's premier lakeshore community — a stretch of Lake Michigan shoreline that includes some of the most coveted real estate in all of West Michigan. Situated just west of Holland, Park Township encompasses Holland State Park, the Lake Michigan beach corridor, and a concentration of high-value waterfront and near-water properties that attract buyers from across the country.
Park Township is not an incorporated city — it's an Ottawa County township that includes several distinct communities and neighborhoods. The residential character ranges from modest near-water cottages in the $400,000s to multi-million dollar Lake Michigan estate properties on the bluff and beach.
