Awesome location for a family of 4 with two small children. Very close to downtown, an awesome children’s playground, and the beach. House was much bigger than expected which was a pleasant surprise. Stairs were a little tricky with our curious toddler but we made it work. Host was very responsive the morning of check out when we had a little hiccup. Would definitely stay again!

Super cute little house. Felt very cottage-y. Loved the three seasons room. Great location as well. Easy to beach or town. We rented a golf cart which was fun and helpful.

Nice place, great sun porch!

We had a great time over the long weekend. The weather was cool, so we made a fire in the fire pit and spent a lot of time on the sun porch. Very comfortable stay. Thank you!

The cute house was very clean. The bunkbeds are sized for children so very uncomfortable for adults.The hot water didn't work in one of the showers and no one replied when we told them. The two porches were very enjoyable.

Great Location and Space

The location is great. Within walking distance to the beach/kids corner and downtown. The home was as described. As another reviewer noted, the bunk room has a high window that lets in evening light keeping the room very bright until dusk, something to be aware of if you have young children. Otherwise the place is great, all kitchen items we would need and plenty of seating and rooms and space for our family.

Great

We picked this because we saw online that this place had some kid friendly features and it did. From the bunkers, kid toys and games, kid silverware and cups and even a high chair. Definitely would recommend for someone with little kids. The negative thing is the grill didn’t have propane but I messaged the owner and they brought some.

Nice!

Overall, the property is very good. The storm door had issues with sticking closed and very hard to open. There is a bedroom and a bathroom on the first floor and two bedrooms on the second floor. The child’s bedroom was very warm last night. The house was very clean. Parking was very easy. It is walkable to the lake and downtown South Haven. Overall very good.
