About this property

Large Beach Home w/2LRs, Wrap-Around Porch, Fire Pit, 2 Blocks to Beach/Downtown

A rocking chair front porch sets the stage for the comfort and relaxation you'll find at Erie Street Retreat

Living Spaces
You'll enter an enormous and uniquely-shaped great room, complete with gleaming hardwood floors, and a stone hearth fireplace. This welcoming space features furnishings and decor straight out of a coastal-themed magazine. The tranquil shades of the sand and sea invite you to relax on one of the plush sofas or armchairs, maybe with a glass of your favorite beverage and tray of hors d'oeuvres in front of you. Cozy nights in are made even more enjoyable with the 55” HDTV on which to stream your favorite bingeable show or a long-anticipated movie. The basement level offers a second spacious living area, complete with sectional sofa and HDTV. The table for four is perfect for board games or a puzzle. The kitchenette is particularly convenient, with a wine fridge and sink.

Peak & Non-Peak Season
During the peak season, this home would have a 7-night minimum and would rent Saturday - Saturday. If you are interested in staying a full week in the non-peak season, September through April, please send in an inquiry with your travel dates and we are happy to supply weekly pricing for your trip.

Cooking & Dining
The fully equipped and stocked kitchen will be the family chef's joy! Nearly endless cabinets mean there's plenty of room for all the groceries, while more than generous counter space offers plenty of room for food prep. An oversized center island provides seating for 5, whether enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the afternoon, while keeping the chef company. The adjacent dining table for 8 sits in its own regal octagonal space. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer abundant natural light and beautiful neighborhood views.

Bed & Bath
The second level of the home houses the grand primary suite. A true oasis, this spacious suite is the only room on the floor. Features include vaulted ceilings, a king size bed, plenty of storage, dual nightstands and lamps. The ensuite bath offers double sinks and a tub/shower. The third level of 301 Erie has four bedrooms, three with queen beds and the last with two twins. Two full baths are shared, one with a double sink and tub/shower, and the other with a single sink and walk-in shower. The basement level has another cozy bedroom with two twin over full bunk beds, and a bathroom with a tub/shower.

Outdoor Spaces
Enjoy the fresh air on the large patio, complete with gas grill and alfresco dining table for 6. Spend your evenings around the fire pit, trading stories and making wonderful new memories!

Fantastic stay for a Thanksgiving away!

My family and I stayed here the week of Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time! We loved the open kitchen/living room, dining table, and of course the fireplace. It was very cold and snowy during our stay so the fireplace made the house cozy and comfortable! We will definitely return and may make this an annual tradition now!

Very nice and comfortable accommodation

This property did meet the description listed on VRBO. It was very clean and everyone in our family had a great time.The only issue we encountered is the same issue we see in our many VRBO rentals and that is the condition of the outside grill. They are usually filthy and this particular grill the starter was not functioning. It was very difficult to light the grill with a lighter. Wondering if owners could hire a part time retired person to do a deep clean a couple times a season and make sure the grates are cleaned and the grill is functioning between stays?

Truly wonderful experience

This is a roomy home with 6 bedrooms and 5 baths so everyone had their space, and the common area is open and spacious. The location is perfect - 3 blocks to the beach, 3 blocks to the channel, 3 blocks to downtown, 6 min to the grocery stores. We loved the firepit in the evenings, and the corner lot meant we had plenty of parking. The property management was stellar - We had a couple of VERY small problems, and they responded immediately. The only surprising thing was that, with such a big house, the pans are small. We are a bunch of foodies who love to cook for each other, and we had to bring our own pans. (We accidentally left our big pot behind, so you'll be able to make adequate pasta.) Thank you to the owner and to the management company for an outstanding week!!!

Beautiful Home, Ideal Location, Great Hosts!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! Everything was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable. The location couldn’t have been better: just a few blocks to the beach in one direction and a few blocks to downtown in the other. It made getting around super easy and enjoyable. The rental company was also fantastic—communication was clear, timely, and very responsive throughout our stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

South Haven Family Weekend

Fantastic location--we parked when we arrived and walked to everything. Did not get back in our car until it was time to go home. Property was beautiful and so spacious and clean. Our youngest daughter passed away last month and we were grateful for the kind sympathy note and flowers that the hosts left at the home for our arrival. Would definitely recommend this property.
