South Haven is home to numerous festivals throughout the year and is known for their spectacular Blueberry crop. many art and specialty shops (art, clothing, great antiques)in town as well as many more just a short drive away. Golfers will find a myriad of courses at all levels of play. For the athlete, we are at the beginning of the historic KalHaven trail which offers 30 plus miles for running, biking, or hiking. There is a shop down the street that rents kayaks and one in town that rents great bikes.
Winter brings opportunities for snowmobiling, skiing, and hiking, or just hiding out with good company and a bottle of wine from one of the local vineyard.

Why the Owner Chose South Haven
Mariners Cove has everything a vacationer would want. The three level unit is beautifully decorated and has two large decks to lounge on, a great place to get away from the sand, relax, and spread out, or hang at the pool. The public beach is only two blocks away as is the down town district (shopping, entertainment, and restaurants). And lastly the unit comes with a 52' by 16' boat slip. Dock with us and your just a 10 minute idle to the open waters of Lake Michigan.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhouse
As already stated, the unit itself is the ultimate getaway but if you need to get out to town, the lake, or the beach, you're just a short walk away from sun and fun. Within a 10 minute walk you can be in town or at the beach. Park the car in our below unit air conditioned garage when yuo arrive and pull it out when you leave, because you won't need it.
Just a few short blocks from the unit are all of the Down Town South Haven places to be.
Dock anything that will fit into the 52' by 16' slip. You're just a 10 minute no wake chug to open waters of Lake Michigan.
Owner's Map of South Haven
Welcome to our Townhouse! Ann and I have owned rental property in South Haven since 1995 and have been vacationing in south Haven since 1993. Ann, I, and our three kids have been spending at least a week in South Haven for the past 16 summers and have made it our second home. Since we can't spend all of our time there we decided to share it with all of you so you too can enjoy the special times and make special memories with your family. Since becoming owners, we've rented to hundreds of families and enjoy a 75% return rate. Please contact us to reserve your week!!

Homeowner Response:
I assume you mean Atlantic City??? From ACY you have a bunch of choices, fly from Philly to Chicago and drive two hours, or check out ACY to South Bend or Kalamazoo and drive about an hour...
