My friends and I had a very relaxing time staying at Pure Haven. It’s a very easy walk to downtown and to Lake Michigan. The neighborhood was mostly quiet, even for Labor Day weekend. The yard is a great place to hang out and the house is comfortable. It’s an old house with unique charm and a great kitchen.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn

Host profile image
Welcome to Pure Haven. The views along the bluff are absolutely breath taking, I have had the pleasure of meeting and enjoying the most amazing people from all over the world. My passion is people and enjoy helping out any way I can to make your vacation feel like the best getaway for you. There are so many things to do if you like strolling the pier and watching all the boats go down the Black River, take a tour on the tall ship or ride a bike through the B & B's. South Haven offers the quaintness of a little town. I think you will enjoy as well. Kids Corner Park is full of fun for the kiddies and free parking along the bluff to the blue stairs to South Beach. If you want to do something adventurous ride ATV's through the woods and sand dunes which is not too far from Pure Haven. I also enjoy kayaking and paddle boarding down the Black River. You can rent kayaks and paddleboards right on the beach. Feel like a real treat I always make sure I don't miss Clementine's restaurant one of the oldest and best restaurants in South Haven, and of course Sherman's ice cream. I love the laid back feeling that Lake Michigan has with the sounds and smells of summer. Relaxing with the boating lifestyle and enjoy everything South Haven has to offer. I hope I will have the pleasure of being your host.
