My sister and I stayed here for three nights and it was fabulous! Highly recommend! This home was so clean, decorated very cute, and in a great neighborhood. Close to shopping, dining and the beach and also far enough away from the hustle and bustle. We will be booking again!

Fourth of July

South haven put together a beautiful celebration with outstanding fireworks, an adorable community parade downtown, and many other events. A lot of walking so be prepared. Local food was tremendous, lots of shopping options, and beautiful north or south beaches to venture along with their piers and boat tours!! My kids and I wished we could stay longer, such a joy.
