This house is beautiful and roomy. The owner decorated it beautifully and you could tell he put a lot of thought process in the decor and labeled things to help with our stay. It has a great location to downtown, within walking distance if you chose to do so. My friends and I loved it. We would stay here again.

South Haven

The property was as advertised though we were surprised by the large size of the rooms. This gave everyone in our group amble space to spread out. We appreciated that it was close to everything and we could walk to town, the beach, and bike over to start the Kal-Haven trail. Richard was great with communication. We greatly enjoyed our stay!

Cute little house.

Everything was perfect. I love how they had extra stuff for you like trash bags, toilet paper, laundry detergent, and dishwasher pods. We were only there for two days, so it was so nice not to have to go to the grocery store for all of that stuff.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Riggs

Host profile image
I grew up in Southeast Michigan near Ann Arbor and went to school at Michigan State. After a number of years away I returned to live in my family home, an 1873 farmhouse where my great grandfather cleared the land. I have enjoyed the updates and remodeling that comes with the vintage of the house, but mostly appreciate the park-like setting in the area.

Why they chose this property

I have enjoyed many trips to the Lake Michigan beaches and enjoyed the serenity of the water, dunes and breezes. The ability to observe the sunsets over the water with feet in the sand and to hear waves come ashore is an especially relaxing moment. To do so in an area which is notable for blueberries and close to other great shore communities a short drive away was particularly appealing to me. I hope you will come to appreciate this environment, as well! There are seasonal events and activities to enjoy from festivals for film and blueberry lovers, as well as year-round benefits of hiking and biking.

What makes this property unique

The proximity to the beach and lighthouse was an attraction to the area, and this house offered a great open floor-plan which will allow people to stay engaged and appreciate time together. A bicycle store is around the corner if you wish to rent bikes for a trip around town or down the Kal Haven trail. There are unique shops in South Haven and a short drive takes you to the Saugatuck community for even more shopping with a creative, artistic emphasis.
