It’s not often that you sleep as comfortably on vacation as you do at home, but the beds here were so comfortable! We loved the location—it was incredibly easy to get to both South Haven and Saugatuck. The home itself was beautiful, comfortable, and had such a relaxing feel. The owners were wonderful and incredibly responsive anytime we had a question. We had such a great stay and would absolutely recommend this home!

Beautiful home and awesome experience overall! Everything was meticulous and stocked well. The beds were comfortable and clean. We travelled with another family and there was more than enough space to make everyone comfortable. The kids absolutely loved the games room downstairs, the pool and hot tub.

We loved our Chillin Away vacation. The property was perfect for our family - 6 adults and 4 children. Each couple had their own master suite and the kids were thrilled with the bunk room. We loved the pool, hot tub, and fire pit and the proximity to South Haven, Saugatuck, and Holland. There are endless things to do and many restaurants in this area. It could not have been better.

A Beautifully Curated Space

The home, interior design, and details were the best I've experienced! So often rental properties are somewhat cheaply curated, though you may not notice through pictures alone. This space was the complete opposite - it was truly a couple days in luxury. Everything was modern, CLEAN, and well-functioning. I would happily stay there again and again!

About the host

Hosted by Ana

Host profile image

We're a family of travelers who created Chillin Away around something we value in our own trips: beautiful places that make it easy to reconnect.
My husband and I met while traveling, and we've made travel an important part of our family life ever since. We understand how much anticipation goes into planning a getaway, which is why we pay close attention to comfort, thoughtful details and creating spaces where guests can simply relax and enjoy one another.
We're always happy to help with recommendations for wineries, restaurants, beaches, orchards and seasonal experiences throughout Southwest Michigan.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to create something difficult to find near Lake Michigan: a home where a larger group could enjoy privacy, comfort and resort-style amenities without being packed into a busy neighborhood.
Chillin Away sits on more than two wooded acres while still keeping guests within easy reach of South Haven, Saugatuck, beaches, wineries and orchards.
Three king suites make it especially comfortable for adults traveling together, while the bunk room, game room and outdoor spaces give kids and teens areas of their own.
In fall and winter, the experience becomes especially cozy—wine country, colorful drives, fireplace evenings, hot-tub nights and long meals around the kitchen island.

What makes this property unique

More than 2 private wooded acres
• 3 true king suites
• Custom bunk room with 4 full beds
• Year-round hot tub
• Seasonal private heated pool
• Gas fireplace October–April
• Game room with arcades + shuffleboard
• Chef's kitchen with 10-foot gathering island
• Fire pit + covered outdoor dining
• Close to South Haven + Saugatuck
• Near wineries, breweries and orchards
• Sleeps up to 12
