About Michael Biedermann
We love South Haven! It is a place that is very special to our family. We have welcomed and said good bye to members of our family on the beach. Our children are the fifth generation in our family enjoying the beautiful beaches of South Haven.
Michael Biedermann purchased this House in 1998
Why Michael Biedermann chose South Haven
We are parents of four young children. We wanted a beach house to escape from the hustle and bustle and focus on family. Historic Monroe Park is the neighborhood that is directly adjacent to the North Beach. The key to this location is there are no huge hills nor endless staircases to climb up and down when going to and from the beach. Kind of an important thing to remember with small children and grandparents who want to join you down at the waters edge.

Family Fun
Great spot for family fun! Plenty of room to hang out as a family and eat as a family. Great location- didn’t get back in the car until we drove home- close to everything!
Perfect family vacation!
This house looks exactly as it does in the pictures. The space is beautiful, and the location is very convenient. I would definitely recommend it!
We loved the BHive
We had a wonderful experience renting the Bhive. The house was perfect and met all our needs and more!
Patio
The outdoor patio area is a bonus. We ate are dinner there every night and played family games before walking to the beach for the sunset. The house is so accommodating for 10 people at a reasonable price.
Bee Hive 7/20 - 7/27/2019
It was generally a nice property in a great location. It worked well for 8 adults. I felt a main negative were the conditions of the mattresses. All seemed past their prime, especially upstairs in the south bedroom. Also, as an energy ad safety matter, the hot water temperature should be reduced, especially with young children in the house. Some other minor maintenance items were noted, such as the ice maker was not functional, and the ceiling fan in the middle bedroom upstairs did not work. These items did not detract significantly from an enjoyable stay. Thank you.
Location, location, location
The beehive is a great house in a prime location in south haven. So close to the beach, pier, downtown. Cute coffee shop a half a block away for morning coffee run. House was very clean with ample kitchen supplies, towels, etc. Property manager was readily available for questions. We were happy with our trip to the beehive!
