South Haven Was The Bomb!!!

My friends and I had an amazing time in South Haven! The Lilac Cottage, where we stayed, was fantastic—everything was just as advertised and even exceeded our expectations! The host thought of every detail we might need during our stay. We can't wait to return!

Absolutely beautiful home - super clean. Stocked to the brim with everything you could possibly need in a vacation rental from the kitchen, laundry area, indoor games and as well as the beach chairs, beach umbrellas and yard games. Location was fabulous; quiet and felt very secluded in the back yard. Just a short drive to South Beach. Absolutely no issues with the host or home. Would 100% choose this home or homes from this property manager again!

Wonderful Space for a Getaway!

The property was perfect for 4 adults to get away and enjoy! The kitchen was stocked with any utensils or dishes you might need. The TVs were not user friendly as you have to log into your own account for most services (all streaming). I would also recommend window treatments be added to the front & back doors as well as the doorway for more security and privacy. Overall we were very pleased with the location, just a few minute walk to the end of the street and there are beautiful views of Lake Michigan! We would definitely consider booking this again!
