The Space:
Located in a historic part of South Haven, this turn of the century home will accommodate 10 guests in 6 bedrooms with 2 baths, so bring the whole family. You`ll love the authentic details in this beautifully updated home that manages to keep the historic Victorian feel.
The main level offers a fully modern kitchen, dining room, cozy sitting room and TV room with fireplace. You`ll love relaxing in the classic enclosed front porch. The first floor has a full bathroom, plus a Queen bedroom with a fireplace that is great for those who don`t want to manage stairs.
Upstairs you`ll find 5 additional bedrooms with great bed layouts for your whole group, plus another full bathroom.
You`ll spend your time at Driftwood listening to the waves of Lake Michigan from the screened in porch, watching the kids play in the large yard, or taking a short walk up the riverfront to the marina to watch the boats on the Black River or to town for some Sherman`s Ice Cream. The location can`t be beat, just 1 block to South Beach.
