About the host
Hosted by Linda/David Bentley
Linda and David are a creative team photographer and graphic designer entrepreneurs who have carefully designed the home for the ultimate escape in a tranquil residential subdivision hidden from city tourists.
Why they chose this property
This is a family oriented neighborhood. Not intended for youth parties, never allowed. This residential community of cottages date back to the 1920's when developers created the Mt Pleasant Lake Shore Subdivision. The area is secluded to the West of Blue Star Highway but close enough to all of the modern amenities of South Haven. Visit Sherman's Dairy Bar for the best ice cream ever! Ask for Blue Moon!
What makes this property unique
Once you arrive, you leave the fast pace of city life behind. City stress drains from your body the moment you set foot in nature and a country like atmosphere with dirt roads. You can choose from many available amenities nearby. Downtown So Haven and public pristine South Haven beaches are a short 10 min drive.
