The place was great for our needs, a good amount of space for the four of us. It's an older house but has everything you need.

Wonderful location

The house was perfectly located, close to beach, Kids Korner and downtown. It was clean and well stocked. Communication was excellent with owner. Downsides were queen mattresses in poor condition and little drawer space. But, at our request, hangers were delivered promptly. The upstairs TV is for dvds only.

Perfect Family Stay

We LOVED our week in this home. My mother, brother, husband, myself and our teen and toddler sons stayed here. It was very comfortable for all of us. The kitchen was well-stocked, there were tons of board games, and we had enough paper products to last the week with some left over. We enjoyed the hammock and outdoor dining table in the backyard, as well as the porch swing on the front porch. We did have to bring all of our beach and baby gear. It would have been nice to have some of those items included at the house (beach towels, wagon, pack n’ play, high chair, etc.). We were offered a pack n’ play and high chair for an additional cost, but we brought our own to avoid the extra cost. The location is perfect for families. We walked to the beach every day and it’s on the same street as the Kid’s Corner playground. We were also close enough to get downtown via a 10-15 minute walk. Just around the corner is the trailhead for the Van Buren State Park bike trail, and the neighborhood itself is very bike-friendly. We love South Haven! Thank you.

Overall this is a fine property with a location that is very desirable. The inside of the home was nice and clean, although we did find earwigs in the cabinets and ants on the counter. The outside left a lot to be desired which is unfortunately since outside is where you want to be in South Haven! VRBO should require updates of photos on the listings because the current photos cannot be within 3 years. The bushes were overgrown, and it was noticeable upon our first impressions, I rolled my ankle 65 times in the yard from the moles that were wreaking havoc on the yard, my daughter practically endo'ed on her bike from mole runs. There is a tree growing between the patio and the home by the doorwall. The screen doors either didn't slide or were difficult to slide. The property had massive spider webs everywhere including around the outdoor table. If I was the owner, I wouldn't be happy at all with the management company assuming they are responsible with the upkeep of the exterior. I received 3 welcome messages, 3 sales messages and 3 departures messages from the management company which is great (minus the sales), but they failed to reply to our ONE question on VRBO posted 48 hours in advance. We will not be staying with Shores Vacation Rentals again.

Hey there! I'm sorry to hear that you didn't love your stay with us here in the area. It's unfortunate to hear the VRBO message went unanswered; in the future, we're hopeful that all of our guest communications will come through into one inbox, rather than the 4 or 5 we have right now, so things will be much less likely to go unnoticed. I will also bring up your concerns about the exterior with the owner. I hope you'll give us another chance to show you this is not our usual standard. Thank you! Shores Vacation Rentals

House was great. Loved the yard and the front porch. Kitchen had everything we needed. Close to beach. The only thing I would have liked were more towels. Felt like each person should have a full set of towels at least. 8 people and 4 hand towels wasn't enough. They responded quickly if we had questions. All we had to do was start dishwasher when we left. Love that
