Our charming three bedroom cottage is located within the City of South Haven just south of Kids Corner Park. Our house is just three houses from Lake Michigan with private association beach access. Wooden stairs lead down the bluff to Lake Michigan - OUR BEACH IS AN EXCELLENT LOCATION FOR VIEWING THE JULY 4TH FIREWORKS - AWAY FROM THE CROWDS, NO FIGHTING FOR A PARKING SPACE, AND WHEN THE FIREWORKS ARE OVER - YOU'RE ALREADY HOME!
The house sits on a double lot, is shaded by mature Maple trees and is fenced with a cute white fence. It's the perfect place to watch your children chase fireflies, play croquet or just run and play. We have a large screened back porch to enjoy those pleasant Michigan evenings mosquito-free!
It's just a short walk to Kids Corner Park and the Blue Stairs leading to the wide, sandy South Beach. Or walk/bike a little farther to South Haven's harbor, downtown shops and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet and residential.
The house has been recently remodeled with a new kitchen and two new baths. With a livingroom, familyroom and a screened porch, there is plenty of room for a family to spread out and relax. Beach chairs, firepit, croquet and bikes/tag-along bike are furnished for your enjoyment. This is the perfect family vacation home.
