Our family loved this house. It was walkable to the beach, Kids Corner, downtown, and the Farmer’s Market. The space was very comfortable and made it easy to relax and step into the slower pace of lake life. We appreciated the game cabinet and the kids loved the record player/radio. They want one for home along with a guitar and ukulele. The upstairs was perfect. The kids felt like they had their own apartment. The host was super responsive and friendly. We can’t wait to return for our annual summer vacation to South Haven. The kitchen is small without a dishwasher but it suit our needs. The home was stocked well with things like tp, hand soap, detergent, and all the kitchen stuff.

Great location for beach, town, and bike trail

The house is in a great location to walk to the beach, town, and bike path. The 4th of July parade route is a block away. Very peaceful neighborhood and quiet back yard. House is well stocked and the kitchen has everything needed.A great place for a family vacation!

Convenient, clean & comfortable. A great family friendly house that is blocks from the South Beach, Kids Corner Park and Downtown South Haven. The house is well equipped for a good stay, with ample cooking utensils and outdoor sitting area. The Hammock and Beach Bikes were an added plus. We had a wonderful week and will return again.

Family getaway

We have been coming to South Haven as a family for decades. We’ve stayed in many different properties in town. This property had a great vibe and was a perfect place for us to relax between beach time and dinner. The music room was a great touch. Having on-site laundry was a huge benefit. The neighborhood was great, and close to the beach in the park, which made it wonderful for everyone.

Great location - cute beach house!

Excellent location! Quick walk to the park, beach, downtown shops and restaurants, and the marina! Quiet neighborhood. The property was as advertised and has everything you need for a great week at the beach/lake Michigan. Nice outside backyard area for lawn games, marshmallow roasting fires, and outdoor meals. The use of the garage was great for keeping beach and boat gear out of the house. Would book again!

Close to everything

We loved this house. It was cute with lots of character. The owners thought of everything. There was a wagon that we packed and took to the beach every day. Downtown, splash pad, Kids Corner park, and the beach are within walking distance. The owners were very responsive and welcoming and this was the perfect house for our 3 year old and 10 year old and us

House is very small, not well mantained! Renovation required! York

House needs to be cleaned well and renovated. Old furniture probably donated from demolished houses. Dust under sofa and beds is terrible, rags are not vacuumed properly. House is very small w limited closets and almost absent furniture especially in bedrooms. Common space is combined dining and leaving room, small even for a 4 people family. Basement is not usable in a very bad condition.

We’re so sorry to hear that your stay fell short of expectations. We offer our cell phone numbers at check-in and they are posted throughout the house – should we have been aware of your concerns; I can assure you that we would have attempted to resolve them! We agree that our home is cozy, and that there are newer homes in the area – we happen to love the character our home offers, and have intentionally left room for a portable crib in each main floor bedroom should it be needed. We’ve taken great care to ensure that our photographs accurately represent each space – even so, we hope that your memories of South Haven extend beyond our home, and that you enjoyed a week in the friendly and hospitable little town that we’ve come to love!
