What a wonderful home to stay in for our family vacation. We traveled with 6 kids, ages 4 to 11 and they especially loved the bunk beds, the game room and of course, the beach! It was great to have such a short, easy walk to the beach as well as walking just a couple of blocks to downtown. Everything we needed was provided. Communication was excellent from booking to questions on-site. We will be back!

A beautiful family friendly house. I have rented several homes in South Haven and this was by far the best experience, and nicest home. It seemed as if the home was recently updated as far as appliances, flooring, and furniture are concerned. However, the carpet going upstairs and in the hallway was old and worn. The host communicated very efficiently, she was very prompt and helpful. The house was very comfortable for my family. The kids loved the ping pong and foosball tables in the basement. We will definitely rent this house again.
