With some unforeseen circumstances, John our host, upgraded us to his Beach Cottage. Our stay was restful & comfortable, because the beach cottage allows for it. The place was clean and had all the desired amenities. Full kitchen is equipped and the shower is fantastic. Lake Michigan is a hop, skip, and a jump away from the cottage. The neighborhood is filled with lovely people. John is a remarkable host & highly recommend him & his properties.
The cottage was very clean, comfortable and affordable for my son and I, with a nice kitchen and amenities. A perfect place for 2 guests, 2 couples or small family to explore the area and beaches! The shower was a bit small, but nice and clean!
The cottage was really cute and clean. Short drive to a beautiful beach. The location was perfect for exploring St. Joseph and South Haven. The owner was very quick to answer questions and very friendly. Some of the reviews mentioned the shower being small but to me it was a cottage shower that served it's purpose I have no complaints. I would definitely stay here again.
Size, usages, and location were perfect. Absolutely quiet and away from town!

The very small cottage needs to be updated. The host was great during the beginning and most of stay. At the end, when we wanted to stay a few weeks longer, he was rude and not helpful at all. When it snowed, there wasn't a shovel for us to take care of it, and no one else did either. It was extremely unsafe. The cottage is extremely overpriced and smells musty. We only stayed as long as we did because of already paying and for work purposes. We found much better accommodations for much cheaper for our duration.
This was a such a relaxing and picturesque location. It was close to the lake and easy to find. I would definitely recommend this location for a quiet weekend.

Great little secluded property just a short 3 minute drive to a secluded beach that is way less crowded than the touristy beaches in South Haven. Grilled and ate outdoor every night!

Great!
We enjoyed our stay. Close to Lake Michigan and South Haven. Our Cabin was clean and had everything we needed we have already told our friends about our stay and what an awesome time we had .
Nice little property. John was easy to work with. Felt fairly secluded where we were (which was exactly what we wanted). Yes, it is small, but we survived with a toddler there with us and everything worked out great.

Quaint Cottage
Private deck viewing woods. Close to beach (drive or even walk). Good kitchen. Bed was ok. Good kitchen. Cozy living room.
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary. The country setting was enjoyable and for us was much better than staying in a motel. The price was very reasonable and it was close to shopping and restaurarants. Very nice.
Before i left for my stay i was contacted by the owner. An issue with the original house had an issue so i was graciously put into an upgrade for the same price.My new place was hugh, warm and cozy.Thanks John i had a terrific time.
The stay was great. About a 10 minute walk to the beach. Pull out bed was very uncomfortable and shower was not the best but outside of that the stay was lovely! I would just suggest bringing an air mattress.
I booked this cottage and then there was a problem w/ the well so John upgraded me to Livingston's Fabulous Beach House--a 3-bedroom house nearby. This review reflects my stay at the Beach House, which was a peaceful, airy, welcome retreat. John was most gracious in making this upgrade change and I had a fabulous few days to myself......95 steps down to beautiful beaches where I could walk for miles. I highly recommend Livingston's Fabulous Beach House, or connecting with John to stay at any of his properties. My sincere thanks, John!
We very much enjoyed our stay at this cozy cottage in the woods near Lake Michigan! We could walk to the beach (or drive) for a quiet enjoyment at Hagar Park. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed including a giant bowl of candy waiting for us when we arrived! We will definitely be back next fall.
John was very accommodating. The house was beautiful and peaceful. Something we needed at that time due to a loss in my family. Definitely will stay at one of his locations when we come back. Thank you again so much John

Why they chose this property
This property is new and fresh. It was renovated in 2011 and has a modern kitchen and bath, quality wood floors, and nice furnishings. It sits among tall trees and other cottages in a quaint area that you will want to call home. A fabulous community beach is the equivalent of about four blocks away.
