About the host

Host profile image

John and I are avid travelers and have loved staying at other peoples homes around the globe. Our family have been coming to South Haven since the 1960's so we were thrilled that we decided to buy our own property! We love the area and it is our happy place for our large family to get together and share traditions and memories!
We currently reside in the Chicagoland area, and try to get to the property as often as we can.
We are excited to share our home with you and hope that you will visit and enjoy all that the South Haven area has to offer!

Why they chose this property

We love the surrounding area and were happy to find a property that could comfortably fit our family. We are on a residential tree lined street with a large lot. We plan on planting fruit trees and a garden to be able to share with our renters eventually as well.

The cottage is on a large lot on a quiet street, but yet so close to the downtown and surrounding areas. The beach nearby is a short walking distance. Although it is not as large as some of the other public beaches, we like the fact that it is safe and typically only used by nearby residents.

What makes this property unique

My favorite part about the cottage is enjoying my coffee in the morning on the porch watching the birds and all the wildlife. The kitchen is also great as it is large enough to have more than one helper with the meals!
