We enjoyed our stay; the property was clean, quiet and beautiful. The location was perfect for walking to downtown shops and restaurants. We enjoyed relaxing out on the patio watching the boats go by on the Black River. Chad was very informative and very helpful. We will definitely stay again!Sam

Great place to stay along the Black River with all of the boat traffic heading out on the lake. The place is close enough to downtown that you can walk it to beat traffic and parking downtown. This was our second visit to this town which has a very friendly beach town feel.

The condo was great! It was very clean and it had everything you could need for a vacation. Chad was easy to communicate with before and during our stay. The best thing about the condo was the view of the river and the ease of walking to restaurants and shops. The beach was an easy walk as well. We would stay there again!

This was a perfect place to stay! Chad's townhouse is very cozy and clean. The patio and balcony look out over the river and it's very peaceful. They had everything we needed. We didn't cook any meals, but there were plenty of pots and pans and dishes. We were able to walk to town for shopping and restaurants. Chad spells everything out for his guests to make finding the place, checking in, and enjoying the South Haven area easy.

This condo offers an unbeatable location and a balcony perfect for boat watching and sunrise gazing. The condo provided all the essentials, which was great. The cleaning team caused a minor issue that I was able to take care of, but the hosts were incredibly polite and apologetic about it. It was refreshing to have a host who genuinely cares about your experience, this condo is highly recommended.
