We had a wonderful stay at this home! The location was absolutely perfect—close enough to the beach to make it easy to enjoy, and just a short distance from all of the cute little shops and restaurants. We also loved having a Meijer nearby, which was so convenient for picking up groceries and anything else we needed during our stay.The home was a great place to relax and enjoy our vacation, and the location really made everything so easy and accessible. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient and enjoyable place to stay!

Had a great trip to South Haven with friends. The house had plenty of room for everyone. The location was perfect, being just a couple of blocks from downtown South Haven. The bed we slept in was extremely comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. Aaaweron, our host, was easy to reach and very quick to respond. Overall, we had a great experience and highly recommend this home in South Haven!

About the host

Hosted by Aaron Overhiser

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Southwest Michigan, where my family has farmed local fruit for generations. Growing up here gave me a deep appreciation for everything that makes this area special, from Lake Michigan sunsets and beaches to orchards, wineries, small businesses, and the welcoming community that keeps people coming back year after year.

When I’m not hosting guests, I work as a local physical therapist, helping members of our community stay active and healthy. Hosting short-term rentals is an extension of that same passion for serving others. My goal is to provide a clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed place where families and friends can relax, reconnect, and create lasting memories.

Whether you’re visiting for the beaches, wineries, golf, hiking, boating, local festivals, or simply a peaceful getaway, I hope you’ll experience Southwest Michigan the way locals do. Thank you for choosing one of my homes, and I hope your stay is one you’ll remember for years to come.

Why they chose this property

I chose The Phoenix Retreat because it combines a peaceful neighborhood setting with one of the most convenient locations in South Haven. Just a short walk from downtown and Lake Michigan, it allows guests to experience the best of the area without spending their vacation in the car. As someone who grew up in Southwest Michigan, I wanted to create a comfortable home where families and friends could relax, reconnect, and enjoy everything that makes South Haven such a special destination.

What makes this property unique

Phoenix Retreat offers the perfect balance of comfort, convenience, and outdoor living. Guests can unwind in the private hot tub, gather around the fire pit, enjoy meals on the outdoor patio, or walk to nearby restaurants, shops, parks, and South Haven’s beautiful beaches. Thoughtfully designed for families and groups, the home provides modern amenities, inviting gathering spaces, and an unbeatable location that makes it easy to experience the best of Southwest Michigan while feeling right at home.
