House was clean and adequate for our stay 3-night stay. The house could use some updates like new linens and a few more amenities such as body wash. The location is excellent and parking on site was also great. Overall, I would recommend the house due to the location.

Great location

The house was as advertised and very comfortable for my family. The location was great and close to downtown. We drove to the beach during the day when we had items to carry, but could easily walk there in the evenings and often did. Would stay here again.

Great location!! Walking distance to everything in the downtown area. Plenty of space for family and friends to have their own space. Great experience from check in to check out. Only downfall is no outdoor space to sit and relax but we made due with the front porch!

Great Girls Trip Location

Was a great house for a girls getaway. We had 8 ladies and we all slept comfortably. Walking distances to everything we needed. Only time we got in the car all weekend was to drive to the beach. Would definitely stay again.

Great stay

This home had everything we needed! It was very clean and the host/manager was very responsive, although we didn't need anything. You do have to cross Broadway to get to the beach but I knew that when booking. I would stay here again!

Perfect Girls Weekend Get Away!

Highly recommend this cute home for its prime location(so close to walk to Phoenix Street restaurants, shops, beaches, lighthouse, farmer's market and short drives to Saugatuck, Van Buren State Park). Spacious accommodations for a group. We had 6 for our ladies weekend and there were beds/ space for all. Full kitchen, dining room, living room and 2 bathrooms with showers were much appreciated. Very clean and well organized. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect spot to enjoy South Haven

This house is perfectly located, just a quick drive to several public beach areas and a short walk from the cute down town area which offers shopping, restaurants, coffee, etc. My family appreciated the large, clean house with off-street parking to serve as a headquarters for our adventures and a great place to rest up. There are lots of thoughtful touches, including a nicely equipped kitchen and laundry room, and a closet full of beach essentials like toys, camp chairs and a beach umbrella.
