We loved our stay here! The condo is cozy and clean with everything we needed. Our kids loved having pool access and a large yard to play in, and beaches were easily accessible with just a short drive. The patio space is great as well.

Beautiful vacation getaway

This is a quiet neighborhood that is close to everything we need. The pool is a favorite and the condo is a good size for a couple or small family. The hosts are wonderful and we've enjoyed our stay here for the last several years.

Very nice stay in South Haven

We had a nice stay at this cozy Octagon for a September family weekend. Our host was helpful with our parking situation and very responsive to questions. About 5 minutes drive to downtown South Haven, which worked well for us. Thanks!

Great stay

We had a great stay in the Octagon house. Property was clean and felt very safe. Location was close to everything but far enough away to be relaxing. Patti was a great, responsive host. Pool was nice and big! No net on the tennis court but we still had fun on it playing slightly modified games. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again

Comfortable Stay with a Pool

This was our second July stay at the Octagon House. Condo is clean and pretty well stocked. Beds were comfortable. Deer and other wildlife can he spotted off the back porch. We made good use of the pool and tennis court.

Great place

The location is great, close to town but quiet with privacy. The pool was great, the kids loved it when they were not swimming in the cold lake. The unit was very comfortable, no lumpy or overly hard beds which can happen in rental places. The kitchen was had everything we needed. Overall, it was a great stay. Patti and Dan were very responsive when I had a question. I would recommend this place and will likely try to book it again for another South Haven vacation.

Daughters Wedding Week!

Stayed the entire week prior to my daughters wedding and enjoyed beautiful weather at this very cozy location. Quiet and safe as well. Enjoyed the large patio, pool area, walking in the area and bike rides to near by beaches as well as downtown South Haven shopping district. Farmers market Wednesday and Saturday was so nice. Would definitely recommend this home to others for a relaxing stay.

Octagon Summer Stay

We stayed at the house in June. The property was well kept and had the cutest decor. We stayed with our two young daughters and they absolutely loved the “bunk” room. Plenty of options for them to sleep in. Check in was a breeze and all the info was provided in an email and again when you enter the house. The hosts were wonderful to work with. We would definitely stay there again!
