End of summer beach trip

I can say that the thoughtfulness by the owners to include items for children including a pack and play, board games, sand toys and video games was definitely appreciated. The location was perfect, quiet and safe. Truly a gem for anyone looking for nice stay in South Haven! Thank you!

South Haven

Nice little house close to all the fun. Had everything we needed. The owners were quick to respond. A few little things here and there could be fixed, but nothing crazy. Perfect landing spot when in South Haven. If you are spending more time in the house than out and about, you are doing South Haven wrong.

Great family getaway

Really enjoyed this cute little blue bungalow. Lots of thoughtful touches including beach gear and toys for little ones. Perfect size for our family of 3 - and appreciated the extra bed in the kid's room when our toddler wanted company in the middle of the night! Close to everything but a nice quiet neighborhood. Jarrett was very responsive to any questions. Would happily stay here again.

Quick getaway

This house was absolutely perfect for my husband, 2 month old and I. Walking distance from the downtown area. It felt incredibly safe and the house was exactly as advertised. Property management has clearly thought about what their guests could need during their stay. We would absolutely return!

What a gem!

The details were amazing and trendy. We used this location for a girls trip and felt cozy and safe here. We were able to walk downtown to enjoy the shops and enjoy the fall colors. The details really impressed us such as the wireless phone chargers that were provided in the bedrooms, and the coffee available to us upon arrival. We highly recommend this listing!

Clean and communicative owners

I highly recommend the house and the owners. The entire house was very clean and the owners went out of their way to communicate both before and after my stay. It was a bit of a walk to the beach and the bathroom, while updated, could use some more updates like deglazing the tub and getting rid of old towel holder nobs. Otherwise, I was very happy with the house and would recommend to friends.

Beach town getaway

We were pleased with the accomodations. Happy to finally find the sheet-(kitchen drawer) that told us how to use Roku with TV. Not every 80+ knows,- without help. We thought the cottage was in a great location-walking distance to the beach-we drove to the downtown area. Over all we thought the Vrbo info was quite accurate. Thanks!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
the house overall was very nice and reasonably priced. There were some items inside that needed fixing. There were no spare trash bags, we had only what was provided in the trash can. The kitchen sink dripped. The garbage disposal was sub-par and the sink with the disposal did not drain well. One of the queen-sized beds squeaked with any movement.
