About this property
Lakefront Home w/Pool, Hot Tub, Firepit & Private Beach!
Living Spaces At 820 Monroe (formerly known as Family Tides), it's easy to imagine gazing out through the oversized windows to watch the captivating lake views before you. It's equally easy to imagine lighting a fire in the fireplace and snuggling into one of the cozy sofas with a hot cup of tea. Whether you choose to dig into the book you've been saving, check your socials, or stream a show or movie on the Smart TV, this room envelopes you like a gentle hug. The basement game room is another refuge, complete with an oversized leather sofa, and TV. The kids (and the kids at heart) will happily spend hours at the foosball table. The corner table for four is ideal for either board or card games.
Cooking & Dining The incredible, oversized kitchen is fit for a gourmet chef, complete with professional-grade appliances including a 6-burner gas stove. The double-width island features a double sink and a separate vegetable sink. There's more than enough room for even the largest of grocery orders and more food prep space than even 5 people could use simultaneously! The adjacent dining area for 12 will tempt even the die-hard “TV with dinner” folks into pulling up a chair for a family meal. If you prefer your meals al fresco, it's easy to take advantage of the outdoor grill and oversized dining table.
Bed & Bath 820 Monroe (formerly Family Tides) boasts 5 bedrooms and 4 baths across 3 levels. Everyone in your group can look forward to a restful nights' sleep in comfortable beds with high-quality linens. Incredible views await you in the large, main-level master suite, with a king-size bed, dual nightstands and lamps, and ceiling fan. Complete with a desk and chair and a separate seating area, this room feels like a true sanctuary. The ensuite bath offers a modern claw-foot soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower with a bench, and dual sinks. A second full bath is located near the front entryway and offers a walk-in shower. Upstairs are two bedrooms that share a full hall bath with a tub/shower. The first of these bedrooms offers a queen bed, dual nightstands and lamps, and a ceiling fan. The second can be used as a kids' lair or family suite, with a double-over-double bunk and a king bed. The basement offers two bedrooms that share a full hall bath with a walk-in shower. The first of these offers a king bed and TV, with the second offering a queen bed and TV.
Outdoor Spaces Mother Nature takes center stage at 820 Monroe (formerly Family Tides). Take in the sweeping lake views from the covered patio or up-close-and-personal on your private sandy beach with Adirondack chairs. The fenced-in backyard oasis is a safe and private space for your group to hang out and make memories together. The outdoor pool is where guests love to spend sunny days splashing around. When playtime is over for the day, the auto cover makes light work of covering up the pool to keep everyone safe (especially little guests). The giant Jenga game is sure to provide some family fun and new memories. Gather around the fire pit for stories, laughs, and s'mores. But everyone's favorite might just be the warm, bubbling hot tub on the cool Lake Michigan evenings.

Thank you for the review, Brittany! We are so glad to hear that you had the perfect weekend at Family Tides, and hope to see you again soon on future trips to South Haven!
I stayed here with 4 close gal pals and the house was perfect. Everything was clean and as advertised. We enjoyed the hot tub, sitting outside overlooking the beautiful lake and sunset, and taking a walk with coffee on the private beach. We were also able to walk to downtown South Haven so location was great. All in all we had a wonderful stay and hope to be back, highly recommended!
The home was beautiful and very clean with everything we needed and more. We were a block from a nice playground for the little ones and very close to downtown. The sunsets were amazing whether watched from the beach or the patio. The garage was packed with bikes, floats, sand toys and more.
Great weekend with the gal pals! Hicking at Van Buren State park, fall colors, cider, wine. Amazing views, Beautify beach. Loved being about to use the hot tub and the fire pit. Very spacious beautify outfitted home. Would definitely come back for a trip with family too!

Hi Beth, how wonderful to hear you loved the home and found it spacious for you and your family! We hope you revisit us in South Haven, and we thank you for reviewing your recent stay with us.
We had eight girls come for the weekend and had plenty of space to all be together the entire weekend. The views of the water from sunrise to sunset were gorgeous!
We had a slight issue with the fridge and they immediately came and handled it.
