This is the Cottage experience you see in legendary movies. Private beach comfortable furnishings close to town and ample dunes for kids to roam and discover Pirate treasure.
This has been another great year of many years I have stayed with the Dvorak’s. Again there is another improvement - it may be some new dishes, wine glasses or a lamp, and this year curtains that upped the charm of the condo. I love my week in #1 and will e back again. Dvorak’s- thank you for making it soooo special.
An amazing property. The beach is stunning and the cottage was big enough for my husband and 2 teenaged boys. The cottage is a great mix of function and whimsy. Hearing the waves at night and seeing them anytime we looked out the window was sublime.
12th annual sisters trip. The cottage is perfect, from the direct views of the beach and lake, to the fully stocked and cleaned cottage. We love it here! Close to town, located on a beautiful section of beach and the owner is very responsive to our calls.
Location, location, location! Can get any better than right on the beach. Fully equipped with necessities and the sunsets are amazing. So close to walk into town to enjoy the great restaurants and shopping. Great experience!
Perfect weekend with my Mom. Steps away from the beach and a short drive to downtown. The sunsets were magical and loved waking up to the sounds of the wave! Even saw a deer crossing through!! Property was clean and nicely decorated. Host was communicative and friendly- hoping to return next year!
We started our summer with a stay in South Haven. This was our first time and I think we set the bar very high staying at the cottage right on the beach. Amazing views, easy to get around! We loved fires on the beach, eating meals on the deck, and the kids loved being right on the beach. The house was very clean and well equipped.
We loved the location, sense of community, and proximity to downtown. The bungalow had ample supplies and a gorgeous view from the living/dining area.
We would love to come back to this place for years to come!
Cottage #1 is a wonderful, warm and so comfortable. There is everything you need especially when cooking! Location is perfect! After over 25 years, I keep going back and looking for what has been changed, added or improved. It’s my week in heaven❤️❤️❤️

Great cottage, great stay
Thank you for a fun week. We loved the place and it was great being right on the beach. It seems simple and silly but I loved having a the little hooks to hang things. We will try and come to back!
