About this property

MICHIANA #4: Second floor two bedroom one bath in downtown South Haven!

The Michiana Apartment #4 is available to mature, responsible and respectful adults and families only. We try to provide a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere for our guests. We respectfully ask that you please take this into consideration should you choose the Michiana Apartment #4.

The Michiana was originally built in the late 1800s as a large single family home. Years ago it was converted into four separate apartments: two one bedroom apartments and two two bedroom apartments. The Michiana Apartment #4 is located on the second floor and has two spacious bedrooms with one queen bed in each bedroom. Each bedroom also has a closet, a dresser and a chair. The living room has comfortable seating as well as a large flat screen TV. Apartment #4 has had both mechanical and cosmetic updates while still retaining some of the original historic details and finishes. The apartment has a very functional floor plan (see pictures) that can comfortably accommodate a family of four or two adult couples.

There is a sun soaked outdoor deck directly adjacent to the apartment with western exposure which gets nice afternoon sun. Directly next to the deck is the off street parking area so you do not have to carry your luggage or your groceries too far when loading and unloading your car. Please note that this apartment is located on the second floor. Guests will need to walk up and down a full flight of stairs.

The location of the Michiana Apartment #4 is truly ideal. The location is what we like to call 'Close, but not too close!'. By this we mean that it is an easy walk home from the restaurants and night life on Phoenix Street, yet far enough away that you can still sleep peacefully at night. The walk to South Beach is only three blocks west straight down Michigan Avenue. This is the best of small town Americana! Have your morning coffee and sweet roll on a bench on Main Street, or in this case Phoenix Street, and watch people stroll by. Then head back to the apartment to change into your swim suit and walk down to the beach for a day of fun in the sun. We feel the Michiana is centrally located between downtown South Haven and the beautiful South Beach.

We hope you agree and can come to South Haven and stay at the Michiana Apartment #4. Remember...

This apartment is in an unbeatable location. Check-in was easy, the space was quiet, and the host was friendly and communicated clearly. We appreciated the quick and scenic walk to both the beach and downtown! The outdoor shower for after the beach was a great addition. There were a couple of maintenance issues while we were there, one with another apartment in the building that impacted ours. We were thankful these were small inconveniences that did not really impact our stay overall. This is an older unit that could use some TLC - particularly in the kitchen. That being said, most of the space was clean and we were happy to have a safe, close place to land after days at the beach and enjoying the area.

Really nice layout for 2 bedrooms. I loved the feel of visiting at the kitchen table in the middle. Supplies like towels, dishes, blow dryer, trash bags, all supplied, even a box fan when I realized I always sleep with a fan and didn't bring one. A/C was perfect though. Enjoyed sitting out on our upper deck. Breeze was great.

Property has a perfect location for walking both to the beach and town. The apartment was cute & clean; we were all satisfied with our accommodations. Communication with the owner was prompt and helpful.Our only issue was very poor internet connectivity/ability to get a signal. Would also recommend that coffee filters were provided as well as soap for shower. Acknowledge that they were not on the list but are very simple items that would be appreciated by the guests.

Perfect Beach Town/House Getaway

My fiancée and I were able to spend a weekend at Michael’s place here in South Haven, and it was absolutey perfect. Nice, clean, and great location within a 5 min walk one way to the beach, and a 5 min walk the other way to downtown. Cannot recommend this stay enough.

Great location and wonderful deck

The best part of the place is the location and the deck. Very clean. The space is larger than it looks. And hosts were responsive. The beds and bedding comfortable. AC, TV and WiFi were all good. There were a few drawbacks that prevent it from being 5 stars. The kitchen is minimally stocked. I understand no condiments, but there is not even salt let alone sugar or cooking oil. No coffee was expected, but there were no coffee filters for the machine. There were only 4 forks. Four! One kitchen towel for the whole week. We wound up using bathroom towels in the kitchen. Not even a first aid kit. A finger cut sent us running to the store. The main room didn’t have any decor on the walls. I recommend one of the four other mirrors in the unit.I missed the little touches that we often see in other places that make it feel welcoming. Overall I would recommend it, as long as you’re prepared.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Biedermann

Host profile image
We live in the north suburbs of Chicago however we feel South Haven is our home away from home. We can not say enough great things about the community and the people of South Haven. We both have very demanding schedules and spending time together in South Haven allows us to focus on each other and our four children.

Why they chose this property

It seems with most beach towns in Southwest Michigan, if you stay at the beach, you have to drive in to town. Conversely, if you stay in town, you have to drive to the beach. South Haven offers the ability to walk to both. The South Beach and downtown area are only a short three block walk from the Michiana. Life is good and the living is easy!

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the easy access to the South Beach as well as the less than five minute walk to downtown South Haven. Once the groceries are purchased, there is no need for your car again. We have said it so many times but it is true... once you come to South Haven, it feels as though all of life's struggles seem to be lifted. We hope you are able to experience the same feeling!


A great set up for additional family or your best friends but you still have your own private space!!!
