Location: South Haven, Southwest, Michigan, USA (South Haven)
Accommodations: Home, 6 Bedrooms + Detached Unit, 6 Baths (Sleeps 11-17)
Actually there are two NON-SMOKING homes on a four acre wooded lot directly on Lake Michigan with 220 feet of lake frontage, however, there is no beach access. The large home has 5 bedrooms and 3 full and 2 half baths and sleeps 9. The smaller home--the Granny house---has one bedroom and one full bath. Both homes have washers and dryers,fully equiped kitchens, microwaves, dishwashers, cable TVs, and VCRs. Between the large house and the lake there is a 20 foot by 40 foot heated in-ground pool with a concrete deck and fenced in for safety. Overlooking the pool and the lake is a 30x15 deck with benches, chairs and tables.
The larger home is quite spacious with the charm of an older home but with all modern amenities. The large kitchen is fully-equipped with appliances, dishware, glasses, and utensils. The dining room seats 20 and the living room is 20 foot by 30 foot with a large fireplace. There are two bedrooms on the first floor: the master bedroom has a queen sized bed and a full private bath. The other bedroom has two twin beds and a private bath. Upstairs (there are two stairways) are three bedrooms, a full bath, and a half bath. There are two screened-in porches both with a view of the lake and its spectacular sunsets. Each home also has a couch which opens to a queen-sized bed. There are two fold-up cots with mattresses.
The smaller home appears to be attached but is not. It has its own entrances, a large bedroom, full bath, living room, kitchen, and small fireplace. This home is ideal for older parents or newlyweds who want additional privacy.
We call the property "Feirin De" which is Gaelic for "God's Gift".

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1997
We have been vacationing in Western Michigan for almost 40 years and, until 1997, had aways rented a home. With 8 children and now in-laws and grand children it was becoming more difficult. Then we found this large, lovely and inviting home with marvelous views of Lake Michigan, a built-in 20x40 swimming pool and acres of ground to boot. We felt this was a gift from God and because of our Irish heritage we named it "Feirin De" which is Gaelic for "Gift of God".
The Unique Benefits of this Home
Spectacular sunsets, cool breezes off the lake in summer, flowering trees and bushes in the spring, magnificent colors in the fall, gracious meals for 20 or moin our dinning room and, most of all, the peace and tranquility that fills the place.
