Perfect accommodation!

The house was super clean, nicely decorated, open concept, bright and inviting. There was plenty of space for us eight adults. It is located on a quiet street, only twoblocks from the lake, and within walking distance of the pier and downtown. Staying here made our family get together even more delightful.

Retirement celebration

We stayed at this beautiful property in June 2024. The house was perfect for our family get together. The kids loved the bunk bed room. The house was immaculate, beautifully decorated and well stocked with kitchen supplies. Loved the front and back porches. Owners were very helpful answering any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again!!

Fabulous property!

This property is a new build and decorated so cute! They’ve really thought of everything; you really don’t need to bring anything but your suitcase. We loved the location on a quiet street and easy walks to the beach or downtown. This is our third year in South Haven and definitely the best rental. Would love to return!

Top Notch Stay!

The house was impeccably clean and gorgeously furnished. It was about a 6-8 block walk to the town, but only a 2-3 block walk to the lake to watch the jaw-dropping sunsets! Lots of cute sitting places on deck and front porch. Our girls' getaway weekend was amazing, thanks to this location and home!

The house was perfect. Great location for having little ones with Kid's corner being so close. Multiple wide open areas to hang out in the house. Would be great for multiple families. Kitchen has everything we needed and lots of fun stuff in the garage. Enjoyed coffee on the patios every morning. Would definitely come back!

Winter Getaway

Great property for our whole family. Plenty of space, very well equipped kitchen. Everything as pictured online. The location is a short walk to the beach and Kid's Corner and only a little further to downtown. This was probably the best equipped rental we have stayed in. The hosts are responsive and check in was easy. Everything in the house is well done and in working order. I highly recommend this property and we would definitely stay here again.

Book now!!

Judy and Kevin have created the perfect hoke away from home in a beautiful town. The house was exactly what we needed for our family vacation and a short walk to the Lake. The front porch was a favorite spot of everyone in our group for good reason. Ample parking, amenities within the house and a short walk to the beach and downtown shopping area made our week in South Haven one we won't forget. We will definitely be returning and telling our friends about this gem of a house.

Perfect house in a perfect spot

The pictures do not do the home justice. There’s a bunk room for the kids and 4 spacious rooms for couples and the babies they traveled with. Kitchen and living area were bright and open. Favorite part was the easy and pleasant walk to the beach, downtown, or Kids Corner.
