Perfect spot for a friends weekend. Location amazing, super clean and thoughtfully redone. Front porch is perfect for a cozy cup of coffee before a fun filled south haven day. Will stay again!
Had a wonderful weekend get away with college roommates. Joan was great from beginning to end. She reached out to us when the power went down (there was a fire at an local factory and the city took down the power for safety reasons) to make sure we were okay and answered all our questions. And the house was perfect. So close to town, the river and boats AND the beach! I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Thanks for the nice review! So glad the power outage didn't spoil your time in South Haven :)
The accommodations were just as stated and we didn't want for anything. Property is beautiful and we would certainly stay there again. The proximity to downtown was perfect.
This house is so close to everything! Such an easy walk to South Beach, downtown shops and all the restaurants. The rental is so spacious and beautiful! The owner has provided everything there that anyone would ever need . We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house and can't wait to come back!
What a wonderful home to stay in for our family vacation. We traveled with 6 kids, ages 4 to 11 and they especially loved the bunk beds, the game room and of course, the beach! It was great to have such a short, easy walk to the beach as well as walking just a couple of blocks to downtown. Everything we needed was provided. Communication was excellent from booking to questions on-site. We will be back!

Thanks and happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! See you next year!
What a wonderful place to stay. Clean, close to town and the beach area. We had our daughter wedding in the area and was close to everything we needed.
A beautiful family friendly house. I have rented several homes in South Haven and this was by far the best experience, and nicest home. It seemed as if the home was recently updated as far as appliances, flooring, and furniture are concerned. However, the carpet going upstairs and in the hallway was old and worn. The host communicated very efficiently, she was very prompt and helpful. The house was very comfortable for my family. The kids loved the ping pong and foosball tables in the basement. We will definitely rent this house again.
