Please check out our amazing reviews!i

Our well appointed 4000 sq.ft. home has the Sun, Fun, Space and Location to offer you Paradise!!
This super clean and modern home has it all...space for everyone, huge concrete driveway far off the road-great for kids! A beautiful view. Comfortable furniture, 7 separate bedrooms, 4 full baths!!
The Main Level of our home has 2 guest bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms AND the beautiful and spacious master bedroom has it's own suite with huge walk-in shower and 2 separate vanities.
The open concept of the main living area allows the kitchen to be the heart of the home and an easy gathering spot for all. Large granite counter tops and lots of cabinets give you room for all your goodies. There's bar top seating for 6 and a large dining table with seating for 20.
When it’s time to relax, stretch out on the comfy sectional for a movie on the large 60” flat screen television with Dish as our cable provider and a dvd player. Bring your favorite dvd's. WI-FI IS AVAILABLE. Additional hang-out area includes large sunroom open to the main living room, it has huge windows overlooking the secluded back yard and cozy furniture, lamps for reading and two round tables each with four chairs for puzzles and games. Bring your own games😃we have 2 pack n' plays, 2 highchairs, 2 booster seats and a potty chair.

The lower level: Full bath with stand up shower, vanity and toilet. Two bedrooms, one with a king size bed and one with a queen bed! An attached Billiards room with a professional size table. This is also used as a bedroom, has sliding glass doors, with a queen bed. An adjoining extra large room with a 60” flat screen television has sliding glass doors for use as an exit. This huge room has 5 full beds.
Two air hockey games, smaller ping pong table and a foosball table are located on a cement slab outside the sliding glass doors. Outside the main level we have two large 8' picnic tables with two gas grills (we supply the propane tanks) and our custom built slate stone fire pit, complete with sturdy log benches and chairs with cushions for those with bad backs! We supply your firewood😳and premium marshmallow sticks!
Huge concrete driveway far from the road is a great place for kids to ride bikes, scooters and skateboards, all provided. And the driveway parks lots of cars. There is also a basketball hoop set up for playing on the cement drive. The grassy yard has three swing sets, merry-go-round and tetherball and room to play just about any yard game you can think of! Volleyball net stays set-up all season. We have a collapsible badminton set, horseshoes and 2 sets of cornhole boards.
In 2023 we’ve added a tent that stays set up with luxury cots for 6 and is close to an indoor bathroom! Anyone that would love to see what it’s like to go camping can give it a try here!
We have a beautiful ravine that is now cleaned up and is awesome for walking in and there’s a picnic table to use! We think you’ll love this added space.
We also offer two really big lily pads to take to the beach, if someone in your group has a truck or a van! Google: beach lily pads, they’re awesome!

Celebrating Mom's birthday
This home was amazing! It was so well stocked with anything we could have needed and very clean. There was plenty of space for us all to sit together or to spread out. We loved sitting out by the fire, playing pool and air hockey, and visiting downtown South Haven. This home gave us a chance to get our whole family together to celebrate my MIL's 80th birthday! We were all so happy to find a home large enough for all of us! Thank you so much!

Amazing home for extended family vacation
This home was perfect for our extended family vacation. We had plenty of space for all 5 nuclear families (10 adults and 7 kids ranging from age 1-14) The older kids loved sleeping in the open basement area. The large kitchen was easy to navigate with all the drawers and cabinets labeled. We enjoyed the peaceful location, and the kids played a ton in the large yard and expansive driveway. If we ever get a large group together in South Haven again, this will be the house we book!

Amenities Galore
This property has just about every amenity required. The property is listed as sleeping 30 and the owners have made sure to provide enough of everything to accommodate 30. The property, and its location, is perfect to be close to vineyards, South Haven, and the highway but also private. The owner's communication was also excellent.

Family Oriented
This is a great place for a large group/family getaway. Our group was 15 including two infants. There was plenty of space and lots of extras included such as games, bikes, beach chairs and more. Communication with the owners was also great and they were very responsive to our requests.

Connections between generations
Lots of group activities both inside and outside. Weather was perfect. Loved the changes from the year before. Plenty of room for sleeping and activities. Plan to back next year. Loved the proximity to Aldis and Meijers for daily grocery trips. It was fantastic!!!

About the host

Hosted by Lynette Thornton

Host profile image
Lynette was born and raised in South Haven, graduated from LC Mohr High in 1974. I grew up on the property that our house is built on. My husband, Jim, is from Jackson, Michigan and in 1974 we were married and he joined me in South Haven and we raised our two children in South Haven on Center Street and just after they both graduated my husband built our retirement home, that is now a rental. We lived in the house for about three years and then a job opportunity took us about seven miles south of South Haven where we managed a beautiful gated community on Lake Michigan, called Palisades’s Park.
For the 14 years we were away from our house, it sat empty for a few years, our daughter and her husband stayed in it a couple years until they moved to California, my husband’s mother stayed a couple years until she needed more care, and then we decided rather than let it sit empty that we would rent it out during the summer season! We love sharing our beautiful little town!
Our home is just minutes from downtown South Haven and the beaches. This area has always been an ideal location, but when they brought city water and sewer our way, we jumped at the chance to build. My twin sister lives in the house she and I grew up in, which is right in front of our rental.
Our home gives you the best of both worlds in South Haven. You get to enjoy the beaches and all of the shopping you want and at the same time relax away from the hustle and bustle of downtown and enjoy the music of the birds in the morning and evening. Be quiet and you may see our families of deer or the families of wild turkeys. You can walk through the ravine now because Jim just cleared it so our guests can walk in it! We live within walking distance to my favorite spot, Sherman's Dairy!! As kids, my sister and I would ride our bikes there every day for a cone! Also a ten minute bike ride to the beautiful Kal Haven bike trail. Bring bicycles if you can or rent them in town!

Why they chose this property

You’re a little bit in the country and a few minutes to the beach😎 We call that “THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS!
Young children and adults have tons of things to do and we supply everything! Except food!🤪
Come stay at our place and really RELAX! UNLESS you’re a partier and then you’ll want to stay closer to the beach, because our house is NOT a party house! It’s definitely a “family reunion” house!😎Because family is what it’s all about!
Our house is about 3-4 miles from the famous Gingerman Raceway and about 3/4 mile to the new banquet hall, Black River Barn. We’re also super close to the new family fun spot, Arvesta!

What makes this property unique

Family is everything!
Getting the whole family, up to 30 persons, to vacation in the same home! BONUS! Nice playground for children. Volleyball court set up in yard. Fire pit, we supply the firewood! So close to everything except the noise of traffic! It’s peaceful here. Very relaxing.
