Experience the Lake Affect at Trailside, where the essence of Lake Michigan flows through every corner of this South Haven bungalow. Inspired by the calm yet lively charm of the lake itself, this recently built home has been lovingly furnished by a family passionate about sharing the magic of South Haven. Here, the "Lake Affect" isn’t just a name—it’s a feeling.
The open-concept main floor embodies the Lake Affect, inviting families and friends to come together in a space filled with natural light and thoughtful design. Whether you’re brewing your morning coffee at the kitchen island, which comfortably seats four, or preparing snacks while sharing stories, every moment here feels effortless and connected. When it’s time to gather for a meal, the expandable dining table becomes the perfect spot for laughter and shared memories, accommodating everyone in your family.
The main floor is also home to the luxuries of the Master King Suite, featuring soft and welcoming bedding that invites you to sink into comfort after a day by the water. Tastefully decorated to reflect the relaxed and breezy Lake Life mentality, the space is filled with soft blues and thoughtful accents inspired by the shores of Lake Michigan. The attached en suite bathroom offers added privacy and convenience, complete with a walk-in shower and modern finishes that bring a touch of spa-like luxury to your stay.
Just steps away, the bright and airy Queen Suite offers a cozy retreat for additional guests or family members. With a queen-sized bed and soft, comfortable linens, it’s designed to ensure restful nights and relaxed mornings. The décor here also reflects the laid-back Lake Life vibe, blending style and tranquility to create a calm ambiance. Perfect for couples, teens, even grandma and grandpa, this bedroom offers a comfortable and charming place to unwind.
Head downstairs to discover Lake Affect's cozy Family Room that’s ready for endless entertainment. Whether you’re hosting a movie night, enjoying a lively game of charades, or plugging in your favorite gaming system, this space is built for quality time together. With plenty of seating and a relaxed atmosphere, it’s the ultimate hangout zone for guests of all ages. The lower level of Lake Affect ensures every member of your group has a place to make memories and enjoy the vacation to its fullest.
Around the corner, you’ll find the Family Suite, thoughtfully designed to accommodate families, kids, or groups of all sizes. This inviting room features a comfortable king-sized bed, offering a restful retreat for parents or adults, alongside a fun and functional bunk bed that kids or additional guests will love.
But the Lake Affect isn’t limited to the walls of our home. Step outside and discover the neighborhood’s heated pool, open Memorial Day through Labor Day, and an amenity-packed clubhouse that includes ping pong for some friendly competition.
Bring your bikes and hit the Van Buren Trail, winding through the neighborhood and offering scenic routes to South Haven’s iconic dunes, beaches, and bustling downtown. Just a few blocks away you'll find the Blue Stairs at Kid’s Corner Park - Leading to the famous South Beach of South Haven. Here, hours of lakeside fun await - Splash in the waves, lounge in the sand under the sun, and soak in the simple joys of the shoreline.
Whether you’re savoring the quiet comfort of the house or exploring the endless activities South Haven has to offer, Lake Affect promises a vacation to remember. Book your stay and discover the Lake Affect at our home today!
