Great Location

My family and I had a great stay here. The house itself was great for my family of 8, with plenty of beds, a large kitchen and table, and three bathrooms each with a shower. Also, you can’t beat the location - just a short walk to the beach, town, and marina. Joan offered up lots of helpful information and made the process easy. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting South Haven.

Great space and even better location!

This was our third stay in South Haven with 3 families and 10 people involved. BEST PLACE YET! The house was a perfect fit for all of our needs! The location was amazing as we could shop, hit the pier and go to a movie all within minutes walking distance. Every person had their own space to get away and yet there was a huge area for everyone to gather together. Can not say enough wonderful things about the space and the communication with the owner was flawless. Highly recommend!

Great location and house design

Continue to love this house with our return visit for being close to South Beach and downtown. House is designed with great cozy spots for groups and solos that want time to themselves. There are larger homes for this price or less, but they often lack this unique combination of things.
