Labor Day Weekend Still Available!!

“Home is the nicest word there is.” The Cast Away is a beautiful Victorian style home built in the early 1900s with updates to meet the needs of your vacation getaway. It’s the perfect central location being in a quiet neighborhood, yet only moments away from downtown South Haven’s restaurants, shops, taverns, marina, playgrounds and the local movie theatre. Multiple stores including Meijer, Aldi, Walmart, Dollar Tree and Menards are also down the street for anything you need to pick up. Furthermore, the Cast Away is within a mile of the shores of North Beach - a staple point of South Haven. This makes it possible to enjoy the home, town, beach and amazing sunsets all within your stay!

Activity options are endless to make your vacation a memorable one: biking or hiking on the Kal-Haven Trail, gathering for a relaxing beach day, visiting the Maritime Museum, taking boat rides or watching boats at the marina, going between the splashpad and playgrounds while stopping for an ice cream, enjoying local breweries/wineries, and having one-on-one or entire family/friend time while hanging out for a backyard barbeque. This is just the beginning of what this picturesque Lake Michigan town has to offer.

The Cast Away's spacious floor plan has a welcome-home appeal to meet the needs of families and friends looking to create meaningful memories. The interior has a nautical theme with hardwood cherry floors, antique furniture pieces, unique woodwork and built-ins, and central air conditioning/heating. With five large bedrooms, it comfortably sleeps 12 guests. The first-floor bedroom has a queen-sized bed, ample closet space, and an adjacent newly remodeled bathroom with walk-in shower. There are four bedrooms upstairs where three have queen-sized beds and one has a bunk bed and trundle bed. Two of the upstairs queen bedrooms have TVs with Roku devices so guests can sign in to their own streaming apps. The second floor has a very large, updated bathroom featuring a beautiful vaulted ceiling, beadboard walls, attractive tile and a linen alcove. A stackable washer and dryer in the upstairs hallway outside of the bedrooms is a convenient bonus for guests (bring your own detergent). On the main floor, the L-shaped couch in the comfortable living room is a great place to unwind at the end of your day. The 55” smart TV has a Roku Soundbar where you can log in to your own streaming services; an extra USB port is available if you’d like to bring your own streaming device. The dining room with beautiful bay window is perfect for meals and games. The Cast Away has a front and back porch to sit and soak in the surroundings of South Haven’s tree-lined neighborhood while enjoying your morning coffee or evening beverages. You can even see your children play at Tot Lot Park right across the street from the front porch! Located on a corner lot, there is plenty of street parking and two driveway spaces available. The sizeable yard with a secluded back patio is a favorite of our past guests, and a corn hole game is provided!

South Haven is a timeless vacation experience that has been enjoyed for generations; the Cast Away is a blissful escape from the troubles of everyday life. Partake in the stay you and your family or friends deserve. It's time to start your own tradition for years to come!

Our home is available to responsible and respectful groups only. We do not rent to guests looking to have a place to party. If you are a group looking to rent a party house, please do not send us an inquiry. We appreciate your understanding and respect of this policy. Minimum 2-night stay, except for peak season (late-June to mid-August) when weekly rentals only apply (Sunday to Sunday).

Family get away

This place was great for our family beach get away. Not as close to the beach as we’d like but we had plenty of room to spread out. Great neighborhood with a small park so close for the kids to play. It had everything we needed and the host was always available for any questions. We would stay here again.

Great stay!

Super clean which is always high on my list so it was nice to see a house this clean! Great location - neighborhood was quiet, well maintained and safe. Easy to get in to town and the beach. The property owner was very responsive and nice. Only suggestion that we have would be to add more towels (washrags/hand towels) and allow access to the garage for bikes/beach item storage. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay

We had a great stay here with our extended family. There was plenty of room for our large group and we loved the enclosed porch space. The yard and patio were great for our kids as well. It was about a 20 minute walk to downtown or to north beach, but still a very easy walk. Also a very quick drive to meijer to get groceries. The only thing missing that we really could have used was a wisk!

Good location

This property was clean and spacious. Our family included 4 young children and they enjoyed the bedroom with 2 sets of bunk beds as well as the 2 stair cases! Many of the adults spent time exploring the very old and fascinating cemetery just 2 blocks away on our way to the Kal Haven bike trail. Easy walk to the downtown and a little further to South beach. Our family was sad to leave.

Perfect house for reunion with friends/kids!

Thank you Anthony for a wonderful stay in South Haven! Three of us girlfriends got together with our 6 young boys for a reunion and we had a great experience. The house exceeded our expectations- it was clean, quiet and fit all of us comfortably. The neighborhood was lovely- cute and quaint. We were able to walk to town and the beach with no problem. Anthony was accommodating with our needs. Would definitely recommend/ rent again!

Very nice place and Clean!

We had a very pleasant stay at Castaway! We come all the way from Florida “it was Very cold” but, the white powdery snow made it all look beautiful and the surroundings were very scenic. It’s close to it all, the grocery store was literally 2 minutes away, and restaurants were just about 10 minutes or less away, 30 minutes away from skiing and snow tubing. The House was impressively clean and my kids and family enjoyed the much needed family time, we played games, watched movies, and baked cookies “perfect holiday.” This house is equipped with everything you may need in a vacation. Thank you for the great amenities!

Annual Family Vacation

We met up as a family after our Grand Daughter's wedding. We loved that the house is not "open concept" offering smaller places to be for conversation, reading and playing cards or board games. The outdoor patio was a favorite hangout place and great place to eat with adequate table and seating. The yard is large and had space for a corn hole game and another yard game we enjoy. Location is perfect. Short drive to South/North Beach, VanBuren State Park, downtown shopping and a Meijer store less than 5 minutes away. Yet the neighborhood is quiet and lovely to walk in. The KalHaven trailhead is just down the street. The house is equipped with everything we needed. Owner was very prompt in responding when the shower wasn't draining well and it was promptly fixed. We found this property just perfect for the 12 of us. Thank you Anthony for being a perfect host to our family.
