We had such a great stay! The property was absolutely top notch—very clean, beautiful, and had plenty of room for everyone to spread out and feel comfortable. The owner was wonderful and extremely responsive and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. The tram down to the beach was such a great feature and made getting to and from the water incredibly convenient and easy. We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our Michigan weekend and would absolutely stay here again

This property was the best we have ever rented. Fully stocked kitchen, with everything you could possibly need. Nice towels in the bathrooms and for the pool/hot tub area. Waterfront was beautiful. Maybe 5 minutes from downtown with lots of shopping and amazing food. Susan was a delight to work with. Answered questions quickly and was very helpful in the booking. Highly recommend this property!

This property was perfect for our family. The ages ranged from 2 months to 90 years old and there were things there for everyone to do! Easy access to the beach and a pool on site. Plenty of beach chairs, pool towels, and toys provided. We are planning to book again for next summer.

This place is beautiful. It has everything you could want - Pool, hot tub, fire pit, enclosed porch with tv, a game floor theater, walking to the beach takes less than 5 minutes. It was great, felt comfortable, clean, and safe. It was convenient to several towns nearby as well. The owner has clearly tried to think of any and every convenience and succeeded. There was a Blackstone grill, too. Definitely a thumbs up!!!!

Our family of 11 stayed here 5 nights. The host was excellent to meet our needs having a high chair delivered for our 10 month old grandson. The entire house, pool and jacuzzi were spotlessly clean. We enjoyed the Blackstone grill, the fire pit and the tram rides down and up from the beach where we collected stones. Overall an incredible experience and place to stay!

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay at this very thoughtfully-designed, exceptionally clean, and beautifully decorated home. We had everything we needed and more, and I love that almost every bedroom has their own bathroom. You cannot beat the location - less than a block from the bluff looking over Lake Michigan & an easy five minute drive into South Haven. The tram down to the semi-private beach and the beach itself were fantastic! This was a multigenerational family trip and allowed everybody to get down to the beach and make memories together, which was fantastic! The pool & the game room downstairs were big hits too. We will definitely be back again! Thank you Susan for a great stay!

Our stay was incredible at this house. Everything we could ever ask for was stocked.... beach towels, beach chairs, games and the kitchen had it all. Can't say enough good things about all amenities this house had to offer. We loved the sunroom sipping coffee in the mornings, when it rained we had the back screened in porch to hang out and watch TV. The kids loved the beach, pool and swing set. The views are pretty darn cool for the second and third levels too. I would highly recommend this house and all it has to offer!

This is the most amazing rental my family has ever stayed at. So many cool features we lost count. The views are amazing, we especially loved the sunsets from the 3rd floor. The two decks in the front of the house we spent a lot of time on enjoying the views. We loved the screened in back porch plus the pool. The kitchen was well stocked as advertised and a dream to be in. You could tell every detail in this house was well thought out. Having so many bathrooms made our stay even more comfortable. The beach was lovely and the trams were fun to ride down the bluff. We felt so lucky to find this place and after leaving we can’t wait to come back. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone considering a stay in South Haven.

We could not have asked for a better house for our trip! My brother and sisters and our spouses all decided to rent a house near the lake for a weekend to do a Michigan brewery tour, so we could head to Bells, Founders, Saugatuck, etc. This house gave us the perfect space - everyone had a great bedroom with their own bathroom, we had beautiful "just down the road" views of the lake (perfect for morning coffee on the balcony). We managed to use most of the amenities - which are MANY! There's an awesome four-season room with a fire table, a pool, a hottub, a game room with pool, foosball, and more. The kitchen had everything you can imagine (I cooked us big family breakfasts both mornings we were there). And we all watched a movie in the basement "projection theater" room. The house was impeccably decorated and spotlessly clean. We were wondering for a little while if we were the first people to stay there because everything seemed brand new (then went back online and saw there were other reviews). This is absolutely the perfect spot for a large family getaway. It made for an amazing quick vacation for ours.

This property was beyond my expectations. The house is beautiful, clean, well organized and just breathtaking. We were 11 women staying in the house and we all loved the property. It has so much to offer and the location is stunning. Susan was amazing. We’re already talking about repeating our girls trip at the same house.

Enjoyed our family stay very much. Had 11 family members, adults and older children, and the accommodations were perfect. Newly constructed house and very well done, with a more than adequately supplied kitchen and nice bedroom, bath, and living spaces. Very nice game room and theater, also. Pool was small but adequate for us and we enjoyed the nice hot tub. The beach was small, but accessible. Our host was very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend this home.

My family recently stayed at this stunning 7-bedroom, 6-bathroom home, and it absolutely exceeded all our expectations! The property was immaculate upon arrival and thoughtfully well-appointed with everything our large group needed. The lake views are truly breathtaking and made our mornings and evenings unforgettable. With 7 spacious bedrooms and 6 pristine bathrooms, everyone had plenty of privacy. The layout is perfect for entertaining, blending comfortable indoor gathering spaces with incredible outdoor viewing areas. We especially loved the expansive screened porch-with cozy cushioned furniture, dining table a haven for reading, watching tv, quiet conversation, enjoying a meal or playing card games in a bug-free environment, the private hot tub, and heated swimming pool was amazing. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the kids toys, game room, and the surprise movie room! The owners were fantastic to work with. If you are looking for a luxurious, comfortable, and scenic getaway, we highly recommend booking this home. We will definitely be back!

This home exceeded our expectations in every way! The pictures don't do this home justice. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much thought and care had gone into making this a welcoming space for families on all four levels. I truly can’t say enough good things about this home. It was comfortable, well-equipped, family-friendly, and created the perfect setting for our family vacation. The views from several room/s & levels plus the three different decks were incredible. The huge screened in porch was very comfortable and the pool was amazing. The beach was more than we could have asked for and most the time we had it all to ourselves. All the rooms were nicely decorated and super clean. We are so glad we chose to stay here and would absolutely book again in a heartbeat! Thank you for such a wonderful stay!
