the House is pretty clean and well organized, the only thing it would be hard to keep more than 14 people in - 7 bedrooms and 3 baths could be a challenge for some adults.

Wonderful Family Reunion

We had 20 family members here for a week and it was a perfect spot for us: great proximity to South Haven’s restaurants, shopping, and beaches, but private and quiet in the evenings. Fun for kids and adults alike!Working with the host was so easy and they were always quick to answer questions. Definitely recommend!

Great vacation experience

The house itself was great. Good amenities, good sleeping space. House is located on Blue Star Highway, which was not great for walking or running, but only a short drive to reach trails and/or neighborhood. Lots of good outdoor space.

Family weekend

We had a great family getaway. 15 poeple, ranging 2 to 70 had plenty of space to enjoy each other. The game room and bunk rooms were perfect for the kids. Adults had their own area and enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor space. The host was very responsive to our questions and made sure we were comfortable. Highly recommend

Very clean, modern property. Hot tub is a great amenity. The location is excellent. Short drive to all attractions. There’s a Meijer 2 minutes away. Great for large groups. Would recommend extra towels for future guests and hooks to hang towels in bathrooms. Great family vacation!

Clean, stocked and overall great place to stay

We absolutely loved how clean and stocked this home was. It is exactly as described and lived up to the advertisement. Plenty of comfortable sleeping spaces and common areas. There was a small mishap with the disposal and the property manager was easy to reach and took care of it immediately. We only wish we were a little closer to town/beach to walk.

Great place to enjoy South Haven!

South Haven is a wonderful, quaint town on the shores of Lake Michigan. This property was wonderful - enough space to relax during the evening. Very clean, instructions to check in and check out were clear and concise. The outdoor hot tub was serviced and amazing. Large enough back yard to have your pet enjoy the day and a lot of amenities on the property if you encounter a rainy day. Highly recommend.

Extended Family Stay

Property was excellent for our 4 day stay with 8 children (2-12). Weather was marginal due to remnants of Beryl. Would have been nice to have the garage for some large group games during the rainy days but no one can control the weather. Great accommodations, great host and great fun. Beach, horseback riding, blueberry picking, wine tasting and shopping something for everyone!

Family Getaway

This property was very clean, and as other reviews stated, the beds were very comfortable. Communication with the host was good, and they responded positively to our suggestions for more accommodations for large groups such as extra bath towels and kitchen cloths and towels. We also suggested a few folding chairs and a high chair, since the table cannot comfortably seat more than about ten (there are a few seats at the island as well though). The hot tub was a definite plus, all the better with the cold weather!

Thank you so much for the great idea to add folding chairs! We got an additional large folding table and 6 folding chairs to accommodate larger groups. We also got a high chair and extra kitchen towels! Your family was a pleasure to host and we look forward to having you back!

Sweet Family Time

We had a wonderful stay. The size was perfect for our adult kids as well as our grand kids. The home was very clean. Beds were comfy. We loved how we didn’t need to move a bunch of things to make it child friendly. We did bring a couple of gates to use at the stairs. Overall the home was a perfect gathering space for our family. Thank you Sondra for sharing the home with us. 😊
