This property was everything I had hoped for! A very lovely and spacious home, with many amenities. We were in Belhaven for a family funeral; however, we were able to relax (especially in the Adirondack chairs on the waterfront)! The host was extremely easy to work with and promptly answered all of my questions very calmly! We would definitely stay at the Haven again!

Simply The Best

Absolutely the best place we have ever stayed with VRBO. From the moment we entered the house, we knew we were going to experience something very special. Every detail was taken care of. Our family had such a great time chatting on the porch, fishing, crabbing, and eating in the large dining room. We hope to be back again.

Christmas Joy

The home was "So Clean" and also decorated tastefully for the holidays! The Children were thrilled with the beautiful Christmas tree. The beds were very comfortable and great accommodations for 2 families with 5 children! The kitchen was great but the dining room table was even better, room for all! It was a wonderful Christmas at The Haven!! Thank you for being such fantastic hosts!

Groom Family’s Retreat

The Haven provided a perfect setting for my family the weekend of my son’s wedding at River Forest Manor. We booked the home because of its proximity to the Manor, and that feature was priceless! The charm of the house, the screen porch, the dock, and the chairs by the water provided perfect places to relax and talk with family and friends during the day. We loved the town and the people. Our host communicated with us regularly and made us feel welcomed in The Haven and in Belhaven.

Our Furst Cousins Reunion

The property was a delight to stay in, comfortable rooms and amenities. Space isn't a problem for a large group. Master bedroom and bathroom are huge. Kitchen and dining room are wonderful. We will stay in this place again if we are in the area. Top notch is the house, I'd give it 4 1/2 stars. No full bathroom downstairs, that's why I gave the rating I did.

Best Peaceful Getaway

Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home. It was the perfect quiet getaway for our family. We loved having meal and game time, movie time, crabbing, and enjoying the view. You have decorated the home so thoughtfully and lovely. Everything was comfortable, and we wanted for nothing. We hope we can stay again in the future. We will be having weddings and graduations over the next two years, so we don't know our schedules yet. Hopefully we can visit your wonderful "Haven" again. Love, The Hinmans

5 Stars Isn't Enough

My husband surprised me for my 60th B-day with our stay at The Haven. Wow, The Haven surpasses all expectations! The layout, attention to detail, planning and decorating this home is exceptional! Absolutely beautiful and tastefully decorated. The home was so wonderfully clean. We have rented A LOT of places and usually have issues with cleanliness - that was certainly not an issue! Every thing you could possibly need was available. The dock was wonderful and the fish certainly didn't disappoint. We caught spots, croakers, pin fish. Donna was great to work with. Oh, and the mini birthday cake she left - well, that was just the icing on the cake. Highly, highly recommend!!

What makes this property unique

Belhaven's quaint downtown is a short stroll from The Haven, making it easy for Guests to enjoy the quality shops and services and a variety of restaurants as well as the local marinas and the town docks. And the view from the screen porch or the private dock is why this home was named The Haven, a place of retreat and refuge.
