Great stay for girl’s trip!

House was delightful and loved the fact they have bikes to use. 10 minutes to downtown area, we didn’t have to deal with parking and felt safe after a couple beverages at one of the watering holes ;). We would definitely stay here again.

The Hosts were wonderful to communicate with throughout the booking process and during our stay. Marlowe’s Haven is exactly as described and marketed: quaint, clean, cozy, has all of the amenities we expected. The beds are so comfortable! We fully enjoyed the hot tub and fire ring out back. Quiet neighborhood close to shops, restaurants and the lighthouse. We stayed for a long girls weekend in November. Don’t hesitate to book Marlowe’s Haven. We hope to go back next year!

Lovely place in a lovely town!

A very nice and clean place. The bathrooms are VERY nice and the bed was super comfortable. It’s about 0.8 miles to downtown and my wife & loved walking down. It’s also 1 mile from Kal-Haven Trail which was fun. The host very accommodating and checked-in to see if we needed anything.Would definitely stay here again.
