Loved how close it was to the beach for frequent visits all weekend. The house is very spacious for what we needed.

Thank you for your review! We're so glad On the Parkway was a great fit for your weekend getaway. Its location just a short walk from the beach makes it easy to enjoy Lake Michigan as often as you'd like, and we're happy the spacious layout had everything you needed. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again soon!
We had a wonderful stay! There was plenty of space for 7 adults and 2 children, and the location was perfect. We walked to the beach using the "Blue Stairs" access every day. The home is close enough to the beach that some of us easily walked back a time or two to grab forgotten items or take a quick break from the beach. For guests with mobility issues, it would be easier to make the quick drive to the south beach parking lot.We are already talking about booking again next year!

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad On The Parkway was a great fit for your group and that you were able to take full advantage of its fantastic location near South Beach. Being close enough to pop back to the house for a forgotten beach toy or a quick break is one of our favorite perks of this home! We're thrilled to hear you're already talking about coming back next year—we'd love to welcome you and your family back for another South Haven summer getaway.
Very clean and spacious, easy 2 block walk to the beach. Well equipped kitchen.

Hey Jenny! Thank you for the review, I'll pass the compliments on to our housekeeping crew! It's awesome to hear you were able to make full use of the kitchen, and that you enjoyed the walk to the beach! We'd love to have you back, if you're ever thinking of returning.

Cute little house close to the beach, Kids Corner park and downtown South Haven - all within walking distance. Has all the necessities for a remarkable beach vacation! Excellent hosts. Reservation desk of Shores was always responsive to all my questions.

Thank you Sreejith! It was a pleasure hosting you and we're thrilled to know we helped make your vacation to our little corner of paradise exceptional!
This stay was an initial introduction for our family for everything that South Haven has to offer. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms provided great flexibility, the only recommendation I would make on the ground floor bathrooms is to make the toilets comfort height due to close proximity to the shower in one room and the washer/dryer in the other

Hey Brian! Thank you for the review, and the feedback - we really appreciate hearing about the home from a guest perspective, so we know how we can improve things moving forward! We'll add your comments in to send along to the owner for potential updates during the off season. I'm glad the property was such a great fit for your family!
Best regards,

Great location. Short walk to the beach and downtown. Quiet neighborhood. Clean and good communications. There is one shower downstairs and a jacuzzi tub with a handheld sprayer, but not a full shower upstairs. The driveway is narrow and was a tight fit for a full size truck. Otherwise, it was a great place to stay!

Hey Brian! Thank for you the review, we really value hearing back about our guests experiences! The driveway there is pretty small; I'll update the wording in our listings to properly reflect that it might be difficult to park bigger vehicles there. Thank you again!
All the best,

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this house. It is five minutes from Kids Corner playground and ten minutes or less from the beach access (depending on how fast your kids walk! :)). South Haven is walkable with all its restaurants, shops and we spent most nights walking to the ice cream store and then down the marina and pier and back to the house. Perfect size for our party, great patio, loved the grill! Would definitely stay again.

So happy to hear your stay exceeded your expectations! You were a delight to host and we look forward to having you and your family here again soon to make even more wonderful memories!
The refrigerator is making a loud noise. Would have appreciated some shower soap thankfully brought our own. The outdoor new grill doesn’t seem to work but does have a strong odor of a gas leak. We did use the older one and it worked.

I'm sorry to hear that your stay had some interruptions! We'll have maintenance stop by to reassess the grill, and see why the fridge is making so much noise. We really appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention!
