Great Spot For South Haven Stay!

Excellent, quiet spot near downtown South Haven. Within walking distance of most amenities for those willing and able and easily drive-able! Check-in process was smooth and easy (took me a second to discover the lockbox). Very clean and welcoming. No issues during our stay, great communication, easy check out process! Great spot for couples looking for a quiet getaway and even works well for small families such as my own!

Quiet, restful location, yet close enough to town

The house was very clean, homey, uncluttered, and comfortable. The kitchen supplies met all of our needs, and we enjoyed the King bed. The check in/out was very easy. We would return if visiting again.

Perfect Stay

This little house was the perfect place four our family of four to stay. The neighborhood felt very safe and the neighbors were friendly, we were a close drive to everything, the house was stocked with whatever we needed, and it was very cute! It seemed like updates had been done since the photos were taken and it was very adorable and beachy!
