About this property
Updated, charming home with huge yard, fire pit, & WiFi - walkable location
The Wayfarer
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
With original charm to spare plus all the modern updates you want, you’ve hit the jackpot with this darling home. Easy access to all of South Haven is at your doorstep, with downtown’s shops, restaurants, and cafés within walking distance just a few blocks north. The beach and Kids' Corner Park - also within walking distance - awaits just to the west. Hiking, mountain biking, golf, tennis, wineries and more abound in the summer, and snowmobiling and cross-country skiing are nearby in the winter.
At home, you’ll love the huge, enclosed back yard, with plenty of room for the family to spread out. Start the day with coffee at the patio picnic table and end it gathered around the fire pit, with wood thoughtfully provided.
Inside, you’ll find a light, bright space, with original hardwood floors, modern fixtures, stylish, beachy decor, and beautiful blue wainscoting. The covered porch in front opens to the combined living and dining space, making it easy to gather as a group. The fully updated kitchen features sleek stainless steel appliances, warm butcher-block countertops, and a delicate white-tile backsplash. Spend the day exploring or lounging at the beach, and then return to relax in the central AC at home. Stream a movie or grab a board game for some more together time, and call it a night in one of four well-appointed bedrooms, each as thoughtfully decorated as the rest of the home. Your first perfect South Haven day is coming to a close - with another in store for tomorrow.
