About this property

BEAUTIFUL BEACH HOUSE! SLEEPS 12. FIRE PIT. WALK TWO BLOCKS TO BEACH!

Welcome to our South Haven Brockway Beach House! We are the proud owners of this perfect beach vacation home. Great layout, size, bathrooms and amenities for two families to share or one to spread out and enjoy. Two sleeper sofas bring the capacity of our comfortable home to 12.

Soak up the morning sun on the pergola-topped front porch. Load up the beach wagon in the garage for the quick two block walk to Oak Beach (beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and toys provided). After a day of sunshine, swimming and sand, rinse off in the outdoor shower before cooking dinner on the newly installed Weber natural gas grill. End your day around the easy to use gas fire pit enjoying cocktails or smores.

Finished basement includes a pool table, new flat screen TV with Sling TV (may sign in to your personal Netflix account), DVD player, and a Wii game system. We have a small movie library and plenty of board games.

Full wet bar on the first floor for the adults-just bring your favorite beverages! Eat in kitchen with granite countertops and table for four. Separate dining room which is open to the kitchen seats 6-8. Beautiful patio with umbrella table and seating, plus lounge chairs. The grounds also feature a basketball hoop and driveway for off-street parking of up to 4 cars.

Enjoy all that South Haven has to offer from our quiet and convenient location. Walk to Oak Beach or take a short stroll or drive to many of the other additional beautiful public beaches. Downtown South Haven is approximately one mile away, so enjoy a pleasant walk, bike ride or quick drive to all the restaurants and shopping.

ALL BED LINENS ARE PROVIDED. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN BEACH TOWELS (we now provide bath towels-Summer 2022).

Generally rents from Friday-Friday during the prime summer months. Two night minimum rentals for majority of the year outside of prime summer weeks. Email through VRBO with questions. We will answer promptly.

Wonderful place! Great location, house is larger than it looks in the pictures

Would definitely stay here again at this location. Home is decorated so cute. Short walk to the lake. They have so many items available for your use. I thought I was organized bringing everything I needed. What I forgot, was easily located in the cupboards, closets or drawers. Communication is top notch. Thank you for the use of your beautiful home.

This property deserves the 5 star rating we gave it! The owners communicated promptly and provided easy to follow check in/check out procedures. The house has everything necessary for a great vacation…..location, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, lots of games in case of rainy weather, wonderful outdoor space to enjoy any time of day, and of course all the essential items for a day at the beach. We would definitely book this house next time we vacation in South Haven!

We loved this house! Plenty of room and convenient to town and the beach!

We visited for our fall break and the house had everything we could possibly need. The kids loved the basketball goal, the pool table and all the games. The beach is only a block away and the kids did a “polar plunge”. Town is less than a mile away too and an easy walk. We can’t wait to visit again next year!

Thank you so much for making our stay so lovely! It was so thoughtful of you to have 2 pack and plays for my twins. The girls loved the property and it was nice you had some toys and other items for all of the kids to play with. It sure made packing and traveling much easier! We hope to visit again!

great week

Hi, overall we loved the house size and location! The basement and backyard are nice additional space for a family. The bedrooms were nice for a family. Additional silverware would help with a family that cooks and eats in most meals. Even though we closed off all the air vents in the basement and main floor, the bedrooms still did not get very cool. Luckily we took fans with us the helped. Overall we loved the house and would like to book again in the future.

Wonderful location! Perfect house!

We rented this house with our two grown daughters and their husbands, a one year old grandson, and brother who brought his 2 pre-teen daughters. (So 10 people total) It met our needs perfectly! The couple with the baby took the basement and there were comfy mattresses down there and plenty of room for a portacrib. There were also no issues with bathroom space. The kitchen was well equipped and had lots of counter space which was great for a big group! We walked to Oak street beach for sunsets and drove to North Beach for daytime beach fun! ( Too much gear to walk but it is a very doable walk) We also enjoyed smores around the fire pit one evening! Overall it was a great house in a great location!

Charming beach house perfect for family

This house was exactly as described. It was in a great location and the right size for us. The kitchen was well stocked, the kids played non-stop on the pool table and the beds/linens were comfortable. And, the house was very clean. The only reason I took off a star was for two reasons. The main foyer lights were not working nor were the patio lights. We tried every light switch in the house and could not get them to come on at all. It would be strange that all the lightbulbs were off, but with it being a rainy weekend, the foyer was quite dark and lights would have been great. The other reason is the early departure time of 10am. With having to get kids packed, the house in order (trash, laundry, etc) it was a very condensed morning. Just even one hour later would make all the difference in the world. I understand the need to turn the house around for new guests, however you should also be able to enjoy a bit of the morning for the money you pay. Outside that, which are minor inconveniences in the grand scheme of things, it was a very nice house.

What a great place to stay!!!!!

My 5 sisters and I stayed at the Brockway Beach House and it was everything we had hoped for. Clean, spacious, close to the beach & a great neighborhood. The only issue we had was getting our large truck down the driveway to unload (a little narrow). The garbage receptacles were in the way but it was an easy fix. Owners were very responsive to any questions we had. We would absolutely stay here again. Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer and Ron Niego

Host profile image
We are so excited to share our beach home with you and we look forward to providing you with a wonderful vacation home experience! We live in Chicago and have 3 kids who love the beach! We have been frequent vacation home renters and we will strive to provide our guests with a fantastic beach home experience!

Why they chose this property

Over the past few years we have been visiting Southwest Michigan. We quickly fell in love with the beautiful beaches and sunsets. As we learned about each town, we knew South Haven was the place for us! Our home provides a quiet, yet convenient oasis. Walk to the closest beaches, or take a short drive to explore the town and the many other beaches which make South Haven so special. We have also discovered that we love South Haven in every season. Fall, winter and spring offer no crowds while enjoying shopping, dining, Lake Michigan, orchards, cranberry harvest, wineries, biking and hiking trails, ice festivals and skating in town, day trips to Saugatauk, and so much more that we have yet to discover or learn about from our guests. It is our hope that you will find everything you need and more in our comfortable, well maintained and well equipped home.

What makes this property unique

The gas fire pit in the yard is so easy to use and makes for wonderful way to wrap up each night! The easy walk to the beach can't be beat with our beach wagon and beach chairs/toys for you to enjoy. The front porch with a pergola overhead is so inviting. Plenty of room to sleep 12. 2.5 bath. Pool table and new TV in the basement. These are just a few of the many benefits of our South Haven home.
