About this property

--Wendy's Cottage--

Located in a historic neighborhood of South Haven, this charming cottage is located just a short distance to downtown. There you will find many wonderful restaurants and shops. This cottage is beautifully furnished with original hardwood floors, a porch swing, and eclectic artwork. The Kal Haven trail is located a short distance from the house and Optimist Tot Lot Park can be found right around the block for the little ones to play. Best of all Wendy’s Cottage is about a mile from both of South Haven’s spectacular beaches and after a day of seeing all that South Haven has to offer, enjoy an evening relaxing on the large back deck. With two bedrooms and a loft area with a queen bed, and two 3/4 bathrooms, this house comfortably sleeps 6 people. Additional parking is available in the backyard or on Bailey Street (located 3 houses to the west of Wendy's Cottage).

Wendy's Cottage was perfect for our Memorial Vacation stay. We were close to all the festivities in South Haven and had a cozy home to relax in, grill dinners, watch movies and play games in. The home owners thought of everything. There was a lovey front porch with a swing and rocking chairs and the grill out back was on a nice size deck that looked back into a backyard with wildlife to watch. There was laundry facilities, extra blankets and pretty dishes to eat on.

Great house to stay in - it is very well maintained, clean, and has everything you need. Only challenge was parking/the driveway which was tight to drive through. As a heads up - if you have a large SUV like I did, it will be extremely difficult to park.

Loved the cottage.

We loved this well stocked and gorgeous cottage. We are used to staying closer to town, but we’re able to walk most everywhere. The driveway was very narrow for our SUV, but we made it work. Would definitely stay again.

Very nice and cozy location. Within walking distance of everything. Has back patio and kitchen. Also many board games. I saw folks talking about the driveway but we had a Pacifica and it fit in the driveway, just couldn’t go back all the way but it didn’t ruin a thing. Communication with host was always fast and friendly.

Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Wendy's Cottage. It had everything we needed for our weekend stay. The deck in back is great, complete with a great grill and outdoor heater. I would only caution those bringing multiple cars that the driveway is quite tight.

Wonderful Cozy Cottage

Wendy’s cottage was a wonderful place to stay while visiting South Haven. It was clean and cozy. We were within walking distance to downtown where there’s many restaurants and shops. We and our friends are walkers and bikers and this property was close to walking and biking paths. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in South Haven. The cottage had so many personal touches we felt right at home.

Lived South Haven. Really enjoyed Wendy’s Cottage

Wendy’s Cottage was delightful. Super clean,well equipped and quite charming. When we absent mindedly locked ourselves out they responded to us immediately. Problem solved. I gave the location a 4 only because the street was so busy. Walkable location to so many things was great!
