Great location and home

This was my family’s first time in Michigan. We wanted to stay for a few days and came across this home that was perfect for our stay. Everything was clean and the home was in the perfect location for a quick trip to north beach. We would love to stay at this location again in the future.

Was a great place to stay. Great location. Had 2 good showers/bathrooms. The only complaint we had was all the beds were rocks. If it wasnt for that we would give it a 10 out of 10. Solid 8 out of 10

Great Stay in South Haven

This was the perfect time of year to come stay! We had great, cool weather. The walk down the beach was quick and easy. We played in the backyard and drove into town. It takes about 45-60 minutes to get to Grand Rapids and 30 minutes up to Holland to see the tulips. Overall a great stay and a comfortable home to sleep and spend time.

Lovely Property

We had a lovely stay at this property. The bathrooms and kitchen were very clean and the beds were comfortable. The home had everything we needed for our stay. The beach was a short walk away and the community is safe. You must try Sherman’s ice cream while there.

We loved our stay here! Super close to Newcome beach which was less crowded than the other options near by. The quiet setting was relaxing and we enjoyed seeing the wildlife in the yard. We look forward to returning!

Wonderful Accommodation in South Haven!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The property was clean, inviting, and had all the amenities as listed. The yard was beautiful and a great accompaniment to the home. Location was great as it was close to the water yet quiet. Check in and check out was easy and the hosts responded promptly to my messages. I would highly recommend staying here!

Great Lake Property

We had a great weekend celebrating our daughter’s 18th birthday. The house was cozy and a short walk to the lake and beach. Great yard with 2 fire pits and yard games to pass the time. Also a short walk to town to get coffee and food. Would definitely recommend!

Good spot for South Haven

Property was clean, had a good kitchen, and was in a quiet location. Enjoyed being close enough to walk to the beach without having to be downtown South Haven. Railing on the deck was made of rope and not very secure.
