This was a great place to stay for a little getaway! It was very clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything we needed. We appreciated the privacy of the privacy of the property while still being a short drive from South Haven's downtown, Sherman's Ice-cream, and the beach. The owner was easy to communicate with and very responsive, which made the experience wonderful and smooth. Would definately stay again!

The house is absolutely adorable. It had everything you could think of that may be needed. Beds were comfortable and the location is perfect. Away from the busy town but still close to downtown. Host was very responsive and even left us a welcome gift. Definitely would stay again. Only suggestion I would give is place something at the driveway, maybe a little flag with a strawberry on it . We almost missed the driveway multiple times. Great host, great house.

Such a comfy cottage feel! Loved the space as a getaway for my wife and I for a weekend. Our host was incredibly responsive and took care of every detail. Loved the recommendations for things to do in South Haven and enjoyed getting to experience some of the unique area restaurants.

This cottage is great! Upon arrival we were greeted with a bouquet of beautiful flowere and a welcome card. Things only got better from there. Very clean with open spaces displaying an extra touch in every room; giving the cottage a shabby chic beach feel. From extra throw blankets in the living room, to every kitchen utensil you could need, a coffee style bar, spa hygiene products in the bathroom, board games as well as a large beautiful outside space. Which had it have been warmer there was an area for a fire with a bundle of wood provided, a patio, and grill we would have utilized. The hosts were easy to reach for questions and provide check in and out details as well as any questions that arose during the stay. Overall a very comfortable and peaceful stay for two mature ladies. Thank you!!
