About this property

Private heated pool, Lake Michigan, tram to beach, fire pit, gas grill


Beautiful home with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 3000 sq ft. The home boasts two master suites, great for multi families, both with king size beds and pillow top mattress. The 3rd bedroom has a king size bed with pillow top mattress and bunk beds. The 4th bedroom has a queen bed with pillow top mattress and a bunk bed loft with full bed on the bottom and twin on the top. There are two living rooms in the home one on the upper floor and the other on the main floor. The additional living room makes a great second hangout for the kids to enjoy! The main living room area, kitchen and dining room is 25 x 30 (750’), offering lots of space for relaxation with family and friends. The kitchen is fully stocked for all your needs. There is even a stone fireplace! A ping pong table is located in the third stall garage for some extra fun.

The home has its own, private heated pool! You will find two large decks overlooking the backyard and pool area.

The beach is just two blocks from the house. Guests have easy access to beach via tram. The tram is like an elevator it starts at top of bluff and drops you off at beach.

The location is perfect if you are looking for a getaway, yet wanting options to explore the city. Located between South Haven (5 minutes to downtown South Haven) and Saugatuck (15 minutes), there are a plethora of restaurants, public beaches, golf courses, wineries and entertainment.

Extra amenities to assist in making this a great vacation…. Flat screen televisions, Wi-Fi, and a gas grill.

This is a great vacation home for your family- I’m sure you will enjoy!!

Family trip July 2024

Overall a great property for our group of 7 adults and 3 children. The house was very clean and well stocked with essentials. The heated pool was nice with plenty of lounge chairs. Unfortunately the hot tub is not available for use during summer months. The house is within easy driving distance to local attractions.

Family Vacation

Very nice property and very clean. The location was close to the downtown area, shops and restaurants. The kids really enjoyed the pool! Only issues were the mattresses on the king and queen beds in the two lower level bedrooms and no toaster- only a toaster oven that took awhile to toast.

Great short stay

Party of 11 with 5 kids under 10. We came in during COVID so didn't leave the property other than to go down to the beach - so we really had plenty of opportunity to enjoy the house. I'd recommend it to anyone!

Beautiful Home Close to Lake Michigan

The home and surrounding property is very large and easily accomodated our group of 9 adults. Extremely clean. Furniture was very comfortable. Very short walk to the bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. Everyone in our group cannot wait to come back again, it was the perfect location for us and there is not a single thing that I would change.

Beautiful place

It’s was an amazing place to stay! Very nice and clean for us. The hot tub was awesome especially for an early October trip. The beach was kinda hard to get to because of bluff erosion, but once you figure it out it is quite accessible. Plenty of room for many people. Beautiful kitchen and places to chill and relax. Overall, very happy with the place and the owner was very easy to get in communication with. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice and quiet vacation!

Nice house but not near a nice beach

This is a nice house with four large bedrooms and a beautiful pool. The house is very clean and the owner is fast to respond to all questions leading up to our stay and during the stay. It's located about 10 minutes to downtown South Haven. The beach that is at the end of the street isn't very family friendly. It took our group 18 minutes to walk from the house to get to the beach using the tram. We had six adults and 6 children. It would have been a few minutes faster if we used the stairs. The tram is convenient. It just moves slowly. The beach itself is fairly small and the water is rocky with smaller pebbles and some larger rocks. There isn't any area of the water that is rock-free. You will need water shoes to enjoy this beach. The road and bluff have eroded away over the past few years and there is a lot of construction at the edge as people are trying to save their homes and property. This house is about five houses away from the edge, so no worries about this house. People still walk to the end of the street to watch the sunset. Google maps still shows this street at the end but it's completely washed away. Bob did tell us about the erosion and longer walk. We just weren't prepared for the rocky beach. We ended up driving to South Beach to enjoy that area. We did enjoy the pool at the house every day and the kitchen was nicely stocked. The brand new washer and dryer were also nice to have available. We also enjoyed the fire pit.

This was a great stay on Lake Michigan. The pool was definitely the draw for us since my husband and son use it several times a day. We cooked out one night on the grill, the kitchen was well stocked. Unfortunately we missed the meteor shower but watched a couple sunsets over the lake, which seems to be a neighborhood gathering on some nights. Downtown South Haven was nice to visit for meals. There is also a trail head for the 30 mile Kal-Haven trail, which we walked several days. This is very big house, and the two masters on 2 different floors worked out well. I would definitely recommend.

Overall a great stay. I was surprised that other than hand soap in the bathrooms there was no body wash for showers. Although the bathroom towels were not allowed at the pool, pool towels should have been provided. Fortunately, I brought pool towels. The gas grill is in need of a good cleaning. Great location and the sunsets were outstanding.

The property was as nice as advertised. The house was well stocked with everything you need. The pool was enjoyed by all during the week. The tram was easy to use to get down to the private beach which was awesome. Highly recommend this property.

Stay #2 at this property

This was our second stay at this residence and it again exceeded expectations. Great location to down town South Haven within minutes, with Saugatauck 15 min away, and Holland and St.Joes being 30 min away. It’s short walk to the beach. The pool was used probably 8 hours a day during our stay!!! A great house and we will definitely be back in the future for our 3rd stay!!!
