Great spot in a great location

The house is located close to the beach and close to the downtown area, but far enough away to be very quiet. The house is great - a couple large areas to hang out, and the rooms were nice.

Return to South Haven

Our stay was wonderful! The home was lovely & had just about everything we needed! Fully stocked towels in bathrooms, nicely updated. We especially loved having beach chairs because that’s something we didn’t invest in. The only complaint we had is the mattress covers are extremely noisy; they crinkle with every movement which really hindered a solid night’s sleep. Beautiful home & great location!

Awesome family getaway!

My family and I had a wonderful time in south haven. The house was spacious and clean, with plenty of room for all of us. Bathrooms were full of towels, hand towels, and washcloths. The kitchen had pretty much everything we needed as well. It’s a nice quiet neighborhood, and not too far to walk to the beach or into town. We really enjoyed our stay and would 100% stay here again!

Great property, excellent location

We were very happy with our stay. The house was clean. The location can't be beat - a six block walk to the beach and a 4 block walk to downtown South Haven. The house had the basics for our stay - toilet paper, ample bath towels, trash bags and cooking utensils, in addition to a coffee maker. Plenty of space to park multiple cars. The TVs are equipped with streaming services. The only watch out is for those traveling with multiple couples is that all of the upstairs beds are doubles. We received excellent communication from the host, as well.

A Wonderful Haven

Excellent in every way! Well appointed with many thoughtful amenities in the kitchen and bathrooms. Updates throughout the house add modern convenieces to the old world architecture. Screened in front porch was a true delight.The cleaning team did a great job! Location was an easy stroll to downtown and beaches! Thank you for providing great communication and a wonderful property

South haven beach vacation

The location and flow of the house were great. We had an extended arrival time due to cleaning delay. One person cleaned a 5 bedroom in 2 hours. Not the cleanest. The backyard area had not been cleaned since winter debris. Love south haven but would not rent again for the price

Close to downtown

House was in a great location. Walking distance to downtown and the beach. The front porch is a major feature of the house. The house was clean but definitely an older home and in ok condition. Some of the bedroom doors don’t latch. The mattresses need to be updated. The kitchen was missing several items to cook with.

Spacious Home

Enjoyed studying at Independent House. Spacious kitchen and living area. Location is 4 blocks from beach, very walkable. Very nice backyard. House manager was very helpful as we needed a propane tank and she was right on it, and she is very nice. Big house needed a lot more cleaning, lots of dust and dirt in the corners and under sofas. Floors are hard to clean, but all day Saturday and Sunday should give the cleaners plenty of time to get this done properly. Cleaning fee is expensive! Overall, though, it was a good house.

Family Reunion

We had a great time in this house. The fact that it had 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms was a plus for our group. The backyard was great for afternoon lounging and for fires at night. The porch was great for morning coffee while the teenagers still slept. We will definitely rent again from Poorna, as this is an annual family reunion for us. I highly recommend this home.

Well stocked, great location and value!

This was a great house at a great value! Location was most important to us and why we chose this house - it is walkable to South Beach, Kids Corner and downtown (I walked all of these with my 6 and 8 year old kids. The younger kids in our group rode in a wagon to the beach and we also drove a few times with no issue finding parking near the church across from the beach entry. We had more than enough space for four adults and four kids with numerous sleeping options for our group. I liked that there was a small bedroom near the living room where kids could rest alone when they needed downtime. Despite a previous review, when we arrived all rooms were VERY clean! Kitchen had everything we needed including metal roaster forks for marshmallows at the campfire. I was impressed that the starter supplies (dish washer tabs, washing machine tabs, etc.) lasted our entire 5-day stay. While we brought our own coffee, the starter supply of grounds and kcups would have been enough for the two coffee drinkers in the house too. Extra throws in the living room were nice for the kids to use in the mornings when they were waking up and having cousin TV time. We consistently entered through the backdoor after returning from the beach, and it was convenient to rinse the kids off in the small shower at that entry! The sandiest kid took his daily full shower here most days as well. The other two bathrooms are beautifully renovated, however, having a 2 and 4 year old with us, it would have been nice to have a bathtub, but we got by. Communication with the property manager was excellent before and after the stay. When we thought we left a beloved stuffed animal in the house, she reached out to the cleaning crew and communicated with us quickly! I appreciate her availability to us. Overall this house was easy and worked out great for a wonderful week in beautiful South Haven.
