About this property

Close to South Beach and Kid's Corner with a Huge Yard

Scott's Place is a nice home located on 2.5 acres in a private setting with plenty of room. Enjoy the outdoors while grilling and eating dinner on the deck overlooking a spacious backyard. Start a fire in the fire pit and roast marshmallows. It's a great place to sit back and relax.

The house is located one block from a bluff overlooking a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan with the South Pier in the background. We're 3/4 of a mile down the road from the South Beach and Kids Corner and South Haven is a great place for dining, shopping and outdoor fun along the lakeshore.

Contact us today and let us help you book an unforgettable vacation.

South Haven has a rental ordinance that prevents this cottage from accommodating more than 6 people 2 years of age and older.

Me and some of my girl friends stayed here for a bachelorette weekend!! It was the perfect location for us to earlier drive to the shops and the beach. The house definitely was older and has some miner fixes but nothing crazy! We enjoyed it a lot!!

Great location and huge backyard with land and fire pit. Back deck with table was nice. Overall, house was clean but is in desperate need of repairs and an overall paint job. Furniture is dated and needs cleaned. Exterior landscaping on the south side of the property needs attention. Communication with owner was quick and professional.

Bugs crawling through floors

The property manager was very good with communication. However, this property is in major need of repair. I’m surprised it passed safety codes. You can tell there is very very very little TLC put into this place. That’s unfortunate because it’s in a decent location.

AWFUL

We only stayed one night but were supposed to stay four. My children and I were very disappointed in this property. We were unable to sleep because of how terrible the beds ALL were. My son and daughter were up coughing through the night from what I'm guessing was due to the cobwebs and unsanitary conditions. The toilet was disgusting and my kids had tp have their vacation cut short.

Unkempt

We were very disappointed in our cottage… The outside was atrocious. There were weeds everywhere. Everything was grown up against the outside of the cottage. The inside all of the furniture was either broken down or dirty. We felt that we were misguided from the pictures we saw of the cottage on the inside and the out side… We will not be staying there again.

Disappointing Stay

We booked another home for the week of the 4th, but that owner cancelled and we thought we got lucky finding this place at the rate it was (still expensive, but nothing like other properties). However, I wouldn't stay here again and I wouldn't recommend it to friends. The pros: It was a bit further from everything than we realized, but we are from Chicago so the walking didn't bother us, and majority of the walk is scenic anyway. The backyard is huge and great for exploring with kids (although be mindful of the poison ivy). Deck is nice to sit on. The cons: The house sits on a busier road so no front porch/yard hanging out is possible. The home smelled like cigarettes (maybe from prior renters), and in general felt unclean, because it looked unclean. Furniture is old, stained, and uncomfortable to the point of it hurting our backs to sit on. Window units for AC are only in front and back room so the bedrooms got HOT. My kids were up each night drenched in sweat. Luckily, we brought a fan. Our biggest issue was the bugs. It was unreal. Spiders, fruit flies, roaches in the kitchen, and wasps (yes, wasps). All the windows and doors are in dire need of resealing. We did our best to block the gaps and cracks between the frames and doors/windows with pillows but it was an ongoing battle - to the point of my kids (2 and 5) getting upset. We came very close to leaving early because of the bugs but decided to push through. Doors only have door handle locks - they need deadbolts.

As a former hotel maid, I wanted to go on record that this home is completely clean. My favorite part of the property was the peaceful back patio with an enormous sycamore tree and deer scampering by.

The Host Family is Great

Unfortunately, our reservation through Vrbo was double-booked, and despite multiple calls and emails, we couldn’t get a response from Vrbo’s customer service. The only ones who stepped up to help were the amazing host family. Scott and Stacy were incredibly kind, responsive, and went above and beyond to assist with our refund. While we didn’t get the chance to stay, the property looks absolutely beautiful, and based on our experience with the hosts, I would highly recommend booking directly with them for any future vacation plans.

Girls Getaway

We really enjoyed our time at the house and in South Haven. We especially liked the fire pit, proximity to beach and how tidy the cottage was. The garden bed out front and area beneath the deck is pretty overgrown. Loved coffee and drinks on the deck though!

cozy and clean

The house is very clean, cute and comfortable. Some touch up painting on the ceiling would go along way, bur just don't look up😉 We enjoyed our stay. Also, make sure to walk the one block for a wonderful overlook of the lake.
