Our Family Vacation

The rental house and neighborhood were so quaint and cute! This was our first time in South Haven and we loved it. The beaches were very clean and easily accessible. We wish we could have stayed longer!

The property is cute, however...

This is a lovely little home. The three bedrooms are roomy and the bathrooms are nice. I had two issues though. The let-out couch was extremely uncomfortable and should not be advertised as a place to sleep. Same for the bottom bunk bed. Also, there are ants everywhere. I found them in my belongings and crawling on me at night. If the owners take care of the ant problem and put more comfortable mattresses in the sleeping quarters, I would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful cozy getaway, easy distance from Chicago

My family and I were looking for a quick, weekend getaway from Chicago and came across "The Hive" in South Haven. It's a great little house (I say little but it packs a lot within its walls!). It has are 3 dedicated bedrooms, 2 full bath, really comfortable living space and perfect little kitchen. It's about 2 blocks away from the beach and big playground for anyone traveling with kids.

Even when the weather turned on us a little during the weekend, the house has lots of games, movies, WiFi and cable, so we were never short of things to do. The owner is very responsive and a delight to work with. Highly recommend The Hive for anyone's trip to South Haven.

Great weekend getaway!

This little house in South Haven was perfect for an unseasonably cold spring break in west Michigan. The convenience of being able to walk to the beach and pier as well as the downtown shops was wonderful. The kitchen is well equipped, everything was clean, and the wi-fi access worked well. The highlight was the outdoor hot tub - not sure how old it was, but it was perfect for relaxing in the freezing rain and snow... in April. Communication with the owner was timely and pleasant. Highly recommend this place!

Great home, well done!

We had 2 families stay comfortably in this very well stocked house. The entire home is cozy and nicely redone. The kitchen has absolutely everything you could possibly need. There are also 2 bikes, beach chairs and other beach toys as well. And the basketball hoop was the boys' favorite. The hot tub and deck were super clean, with a nice yard as well. I would definitely stay at The Hive again. Very easy walk to the beach or town. The owner was fantastic to work with, no problems at all!

cute home - easy walk to beach and town!
