About this property

This home sits high on the lot facing the Black River. The sun streams through the abundant windows, giving the home lots of natural light. Sounds of the river and lake, festivals across the water and views of beautiful boats sailing by all day make this residence spectacular. The large deck is perfect for having meals on and watching the action of the river and people strolling by.

There are no stairs to get to the biggest, most beautiful beach in SW Michigan!!

Four bedrooms. Three full bathrooms. Sleeps 10 comfortably in beds in bedrooms. (Plus a daybed for 12 total beds). It's just a short walk over to the North Pier, vastly beautiful North Beach, and wonderful downtown. South Haven is completely walkable. Once you're here there is no need to get in the car again! Follow the river and marina over the bridge to explore the many delightful shops, catch a movie, or grab a bite.

One of the best rental properties in Southwest Michigan! Also, we rent a 1 bedroom condo that sleeps 5 which has a pool. Ask us if you would like to rent that property in conjunction or for friends. It is up the street near Bundes Bakery.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We also utilize the house in the Spring And Fall to run Immersive Plant-Based Cooking Retreats. Please visit PlantLifeJourney.com for more details or feel free to call, text or email me. These weeks have been life changing for many guests who have lost weight, gotten off medications and improved their overall HEALTH! hello@plantlifejourney.com

The entire house could be rented for this purpose through VRBO for your specified dates in the Spring or the Fall.
Many Blessings,
Jill and Greg

Family fun at South Haven

This was our second year staying at the Fish Bowl. This spacious house is modern, well laid out, with nice big rooms throughout. Love the master bedroom, and the nice walk in shower. Plenty of room for hanging around on the deck as well. The view is great of the black river and the boats coming and going. The grandkids like to fish, and that is easy and close as well. Short easy walk to the beach. We had a fun time making memories!

Loved everything about it!

Great hosts -- they reached out ahead of the visit and responded quickly during the visit with any questions we had. Location is awesome -- short walk to the beach, not a bad walk into town. We took the kids to the beach multiple times a day, didn't worry about taking food because we knew it was a short walk back to the house. House is great -- very well equipped kitchen, relaxing inside and outside space, plenty of space for kids to play, and there were puzzles, games, legos, and barbies. Loved everything about our visit!

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Manager Jill Keb

Grew up in LaGrange, IL - I've been coming to South Haven since I was a little girl. Greg is a Kalamazoo native and he spent many a summer on his boat in South Haven. We love the town!

We got married in July of 2015 overlooking the beach and lighthouse. Our favorite part about the house is the constant boat parade from our deck. We listen to the music across the river every Thursday night during the summer and walk over to the farmers market every Saturday morning.

We hope you'll enjoy great memories with a comfortable stay in our well-appointed home step away from one of the best beaches in North America!
Ciao,
Jill and Greg

Why they chose this property

One important thing to note about The Fishbowl is that it is our full-time HOME. We leave for just a few weeks a year to travel and allow others to enjoy. There are personal photos on the walls and I move MOST clothing to an owners closet in the garage. You might feel like you are staying in someone's home. Please feel free to discuss in more detail with me on the phone: 269-906-2226 Jill
