Fantastic property for our needs which included three toddlers. The pool was wonderful and the basketball court was fun. Made smores one night over the firepit. The house had everything you needed to enjoy your vacation. The owner was checking in and/or available at all times. Probably the best maintained and cleanest property we've ever stayed at. Highly recommend!
We really enjoyed all the space and activities available. The pool, hot tub, sports court and game basement had something for everyone. It was an easy drive to South Beach in South Haven. Also very close to the new water park in South Haven.
Place was as advertised. We all really enjoyed ourselves. We utilized everything from the pool, hot tub, grill, basketball court, surround sound and television. Great place we’d consider going to again.
Second time - better than the first. Can’t say enough about Craig and Lesly- what wonderful hosts. My 5 grandchildren practically turned into fish and only would get out of the pool to eat or play on the all sports court. At night everyone caught up with movies because the kids in one large living room could watch their favorites and the grownups could watch theirs in another great room. With a running ping pong contest the whole week with the table in the garage “play room” - I (the Papa) was barely able to prove to my young boys that you do not underestimate the old man. Thanks again Craig & Lesly
We've been there every year for several years because it's such a great place to hang out with friends and is close to the beach, good places to eat and pick fruit, and several towns up and down the lake.
We had a very fun vacation. The house is beautiful and has spaces and activities for the whole family. Every corner of the property is very well maintained and the hosts are very attentive. I hope we can return soon.
We really enjoyed our stay at the farm! Loads of things to do like basketball, pickle ball, and yard games plus the pool, hot tub, and fire pit. Our family and another family plus the kids all had a blast. We took advantage of the proximity to the beaches in south haven as well. Owners were very attentive. Would for sure stay again.
We loved our family vacation on this property. The house had everything we needed for a fabulous family vacation. The pool, hot tub, and the sport court were amazing. The hosts were very friendly and responsive to questions. If we come back to South Haven, we would stay here again.
This place has everything for a great family getaway. We swam a lot every day and made good use of the sport court, especially playing pickleball. We even used the open air garage for the few hours of rain we experienced. it's a nice place, taken care of well.
This is the 2nd year in a row we booked this property! And it was just as wonderful the second time around as the first! We plan to make it a family tradition! Kids loved the pool and easy access to town and orchards! Hosts were fantastic and attentive making sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend!
We had a great time at this property! The pool was amazing, quiet location and so much room to spread out and chill! My daughter 3yo loved all the kids toys and we made great use of the pool and hot tub. Everything was very clean with everything we needed. Thanks so much!
This was our second year staying at this beautiful, relaxing, stunning property.
It was even better this year because we had high expectations and our trip exceeded those expectations.
From the wonderful pool, basketball court to plenty of room to relax inside and out this is the absolute perfect spot if you like your privacy and love to have fun in the sun!
The hosts are outstanding and even better people!
Highly recommend this property for your ideal getaway!!
Each summer my adult children come together from all across the country to spend a week with me. Last year we chose Michigan and our stay was magical. Perfect for us out in the country and quiet but with everything we needed to have a great time. Thinking about returning next year if this property is a available!!!
We were looking for a home to accommodate us, our daughter and son in law and four grandchildren. This home certainly delivered! Plenty of space for us all to get together or have quiet time away. Dining table fit us all for family dinners, roomy kitchen, three bathrooms and plenty of beds. So many activities we didn’t have to leave the house to find things to do! Pool was wonderful, kitchen well stocked, comfortable furniture…. And super CLEAN!!!!!!
The house is close to South Haven, the Amtrak station in Bangor, and lots of farms, including upick blueberries, peaches, apples, pumpkins, and flowers that are great for families. Craig and Leslie take care of it better than any rental house we've been to, and the kids love the heated pool, hot tub, sport court, swings, yard, fire pit, garage and basement hangout spaces, and toys in the living room.
This was our 2nd family vacation at this property. It's a perfect home to relax for a week and spend quality time together. Home is big enough that you can spread out and have quiet time or gather together to play cards or watch a movie. The pool is great, sport court was awesome, we used the fire pit for s'mores, used the large grill for easy dinners, lovely location away from crowds, but close enough to South Haven to enjoy the downtown area and walk along the beach.
Hosts/owners are super nice and helpful and always ready to make your vacation time as great as possible. We will definitely keep this on our list for future vacations! Highly recommend if you want a quiet get-away, and lots of amenities, with family and friends!
Wonderful home, pool and location on a quiet farm only 10 minutes from South Haven and the beach. Plenty of room for the 5 adults and 3 kids between 3 and 8.
Craig and Leslie were super communicators and a pleasure to meet.
It's a keeper for future vacations.
