This was our 4th stay at the South Haven Bungalow and, as always, was exceptional! Brad is always very responsive and the bungalow is always clean, comfortable and inviting. The location is quiet and lovely. It's also easily accessible to all that you might want to do while in South Haven and the surrounding areas. Look forward to returning in the future!

Our family loved staying at this property! The location on a quiet, well-kept road was perfect for us. The front porch was a favorite spot for quiet moments with coffee and a book. Our daughter loved the playhouse in the backyard, and we enjoyed using the fire pit. The three season porch out back was great for us to still have the feeling of being outdoors, but also protected from the elements when necessary. There were so many special touches that we appreciated, like the s’mores supplies, the ample beach gear and wagon, and the arcade game. We loved our time here!

Perfect Week

Everything was very clean and we felt right at home. Loved the dead end street for kids to ride bikes, and the closeness to everything. The house had everything we could need, and the hosts were great at communication. The porch swing and outdoor patio area were a great place to relax, and the youngest really enjoyed the swings and playhouse. We would definitely stay here again.

Our BEST vacation yet!

I can’t even begin to express what a fantastic time we had staying at this lovely home! We have stayed in many vacation rentals and this home was by far the best yet. It is so inviting and clean and extremely well stocked. We are a family of 6 and we had more than enough space to spread out and relax. The quiet street was so peaceful and both the front and the backyard were a huge highlight for my 4 boys, especially the basketball hoop! When it came time for us to pack up, we truly did not want to leave and we are already dreaming of our next trip. This was absolutely a home away from home for us and we have such fond memories from our trip! Thank you for sharing your lovely home!

We stayed in the "Bungalow" from 7/19-7/27. This is our second visit to SoHa and loved the property. We liked being within a mile of the beach but on a VERY quiet street in a mature wooded area. There were several other rentals and we never heard a peep. The house was great. Kids enjoyed all aspects of the property. Having two bikes was great and the front porch was used daily. We saw several turkeys and Fawn Deer as well as their mom and the kids loved it. Beds were comfortable and the house was quiet. We didn't even hear the rain one night. We will probably stay here again on our next visit. We tried out several recommendations that the owners suggested for dinner as well. This house had everything we needed for a long relaxing stay. Love it here.
