This condo is very well decorated and cool. Location is walking distance to everything South Haven has to offer…beaches, black river, shopping, dining etc. our favorite part was sitting on The patio watching boats come in and out of the drawbridge!The great location also means lots of road noise (especially for sunset)If you want convenience and don’t mind a little noise, this is your place. Host was helpful and responsive quickly.

We loved our stay at the Black Pearl. The unit has a cool industrial loft feeling, the layout is great, and the condo was well appointed and very clean. In addition, the unit is in a fantastic location in South Haven. We walked to dinner every night. We walked across the bridge to visit the Michigan Maritime Museum. We even walked to the movie theater. We walked to the lighthouse. Everything that you need is within walking distance. Stephanie was very easy to work with. Check-in was simple. We would rent this unit again in a minute.

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie Williamson

Host profile image
Hello and thank you for considering staying at The Black Pearl! We are the Williamsons (Brandon & Stephanie) and grew up right on the boarder of Michigan and Indiana. Growing up, both of our families visited Lake Michigan often so we naturally fell in love with the lake and surrounding beach towns. We are high school sweethearts and tied the knot in 2014. We absolutely love traveling and meeting new people and experiencing other cultures. Both of us are in customer service related roles and strive to provide the best experience. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you might have!

Why they chose this property

We decided to purchase this home as every weekend we would find ourselves in the beach towns and beaches of Lake Michigan. Life can become busy and hectic and for me there is no better way to relax then hearing the waves crash on the shore line and the sand between my toes. This property was previously listed with Vrbo and received excellent reviews and we look to continue offering the same exceptional experience.

What makes this property unique

The Black Pearl is perfectly located within a short walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach. South Haven has many wonderful local shops and restaurants. The community deck offers individuals to sit and watch the boats coming and going from Lake Michigan and watch the sunset. The condo itself has been beautifully updated with modern conveniences.
