Slice of heaven in south haven

Susan was a wonderful host and we loved her home! Just a 5-10 minute walk to the Dykman entrance for the beach, right by north side memories and the sporting shop, and Susan left two bikes for optional use. The home itself was great - plenty of space, pet friendly (which was so great to be able to bring our senior dogs) and very homey. The place was very well-stocked and we would definitely stay here again!

South Haven Great house/location!

Susan opens her home for rental as opposed to other places that might be for Rental only. Very personal touches ina great house beautifully landscaped and a nice yard overlooking the river. It is very convenient walk to beaches and downtown. We never moved the car over our long weekend stay. Susan was very responsive to questions and a very nice host.

Susan’s home was lovely. I must say it was the most charming and cozy vacation rental that we have booked. Even the teens were impressed. We could easily walk to the beach or be downtown for dinner in just a few minutes. The property is in a safe and beautiful neighborhood. The house is supplied with just about anything that you might need too. The best part was her lovey back yard that looked out over the canal. It was like an enchanted garden. The perfect respite for all of the family. Susan is quick with communicating with any of our questions too. Can’t wait to return to South Haven!
Morning coffee in the beautiful back yard was where you would find me.
Stunning view!

August Fun at the Beach

This was a fabulous property, and I would rent it again. It is a 5 minutes walk to the closest beach entrance. Homeowner provided beach chairs, umbrella, buckets and shovels for the kids. There are 2 bikes there as well. The house itself is beautiful inside and out. The front yard and back yards are lovely. The beds were comfortable. The master suite is luxurious and roomy with a “bubble” tub and fireplace. Kitchen was well stocked. Backyard patio is beautiful.
