  • The house works great for large groups. We had 4 different families staying there and the bedroom set up was perfect with 2 of the rooms having a double bed, plus separate twin bunk beds. It's only a short 4- 5 block walk to a massive park and the beach.

  • The house was perfect for our needs. I and my two sons plus their girlfriends and my cousin from England and her two daughters along with their boyfriends spent a week there in June. We spent hours in the pool and hot tub, used both grills as we had some vegetarians amongst us, ate every meal on the deck and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The walk into town or to the beach is a very pleasant and easy one and with 10 adults we could all go together or not as we pleased. We took our bikes from Indiana so, with the ones in the garage, there were enough bikes for everybody who wanted to ride. Our outings included winery tours,brewery tour, boat rides, dune buggy rides, water sports and trips to the gym but horse riding was cancelled due a heavy thunderstorm. Also shopping in Saugatuck and Holland. I don't think it would have been possible to squeeze any more activities in. The bedrooms were beautiful and the house was immaculately clean. We would recommend the house and South Haven to anybody and everybody. A big thumbs up from everybody on both sides of the Atlantic.

  • The house worked out great for our family reunion with 8 adults and two kids. The house was stocked with bikes, strollers, toys and all the usuals which made the kids stay enjoyable and of course ours as well. Definitely would consider again for a future trip.

  • We love, love, love this house. This is the second year we stayed there over Labor Day weekend. It has something for everyone. My kids enjoy the bikes, the pool and the walk to the beach. Us "old" people enjoy walking around town, shopping, the hot tub and the beautiful sunsets (not to be missed). It's the perfect place for a family get together. Life is too short. Enjoy the family and plan a trip to S. Haven and this house. You won't regret it.

  • Our family stayed in the Ice house 8/16/08-8/23/08. It was fantastic! We had 11 adults and 7 children and there was something for everyone to do all the time. The house was very well equipped and well stocked. We had everything we needed and then some. We were really appreciative of the bikes/strollers/wagon in the garage and all of the toys in the house. The beach chairs were great! We put the clean pool and hot tub to great use. Everything was just perfect. Jim was wonderful to work with. We would DEFINITELY stay here again!

  • 16 gueats (10 adulta and 6 children) We rented the house for our semi-annual family reunion. The house was spacious, clean and well equipped. The adults enjoy sitting and visiting, but the children want activity. The pool, hot tub, games, and toys kept them busy for hours. The adults also enjoyed the pool and hot tub. A 4 block walk to the beach to watch the sunset was another highlight. We had a great time.

  • 8 Adults, 3 Toddlers and 2 infants stayed over Memorial Day weekend 2008. We had a wonderful time. Sleeping arrangements/bedrooms work really well for a group of our size. We enjoyed the hot tub, pool, Charcoal Grill and Gas grill, swing/slide in backyard. It's a perfect place for families with children - plenty of toys and strollers (love that double). We walked everywhere - downtown for shops and restaurants (about a 5-10 minute walk)and only a few blocks to a huge playground and the water. We really enjoyed staying at the house - it was big, clean and comfortable and felt like a home away from home.

  • 15 (8 adults, 7 kids) of us stayed at the house over Memorial Weekend 2007. We had a wonderful weekend. There was lots for everyone to do: pool, hot tub, swingset and sand box in the backyard, and the house was stocked with games and toys. This was the perfect place to stay with so many people! We didn't feel crowded and still had 2 extra bedrooms. The house was very clean and well stocked with needed items. South Haven was a nice, quaint community to visit. We enjoyed the beach, public playground, the shops, etc. We would definitely like to return for a visit in the future.

  • My family stayed at this rental this summer(2006)and had a wonderful time. The house was clean and spacious. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils, appliances, pots and pans, etc. There were 14 of us staying together and we had plenty of room to spread out. The pool and hot tub were great. The beach was also nice and the kids LOVED the playground. South Haven has many great shops and restaurants. We have rented many vacation homes over the years and believe this rental to be one of the best!!
