About this property

Welcome to Lake Ridge Cottage in beautiful South Haven, MI!

Bright, casual cottage across from Lake Michigan. Close to the beaches of North Shore Drive, the Kal Haven Trail and downtown South Haven. Quiet, light traffic neighborhood that is very walkable. Very nice for a sunset stroll and morning run with views of the lake. Or enjoy the sunset on the front porch, or rear deck, and hear the waves of Lake Michigan. The fenced in back yard is great for kids or dogs. All 4 bedrooms are upstairs. 2 baths, one up-one down.
Minimum 3 night stay (per local ordinance) all year.

Perfect Labor Day! Aug 31 2023 thru Sept 4 2023
Wonderful 40th celebration of my son and daughter-in-law's birthday. Fantastic beach accessories and towels too! Games galore for tbe kids! One of the beautiful amenities is we had our 2 dogs there. They were perfect house guests! The kitchen was stocked to the gills! Beautiful back yard patio set where we ate all our meals! Love the quaint little town of South Haven. We'll be coming back for sure!

Perfect home for our family
There were 7 people total in our group (5 adults and 15 month old twins) plus 2 dogs. The house was perfect for our group. The house was immaculately clean and had everything our family needed to be comfortable during our stay-the owners thought of everything! The added bonus was the fenced in backyard-made traveling with our pups and twin grandsons super easy. The house is a quick drive to everything-beach, shops, restaurants and church. We will definitely be back!

Great Home inside and out!
This rental home is wonderful. So perfect that our family came for a second time! All the comforts of home. The location is great--a quick trip to town, beach, grocery shopping, restaurants. But felt no need to leave...the comfortable house, porches with tables and chairs -- our lab enjoyed the fenced in yard too! We used the weber grill and gas grill for cooking dinners and enjoyed the firepit in the evenings. Thank you for hosting, we'll be back again!

Wonderful Property
The house was super clean the manager was very responsive to our needs. She was quick to respond when we had a kitchen disposal issue. We loved the area of South Haven where the home was located. The house was on a private street not too far from the lake. The front porch was so nice to sit on in the evenings to have dinner outside or sit on the porch swing and talk with friends. We would definitely rent this house again

About the host

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Leslie. I'm a wife, mom, grandmother and interior designer. I've used my experience working with clients to design a vacation home that is comfortable and relaxed. My hope is that you will feel at home while you are here, only better because you're on vacation!
My husband Brent and I have been vacationing in and around South Haven for years. Family trips with our now-grown boys, girls' weekends, couples trips and now with daughters-in-law and grandbabies. We truly love the area and are happy to share our home with other families looking for an escape to relax, recharge and explore. We have already started making our family memories here. We hope you will too.

Why they chose this property

We had been looking all over southwest Michigan for the right house that was big enough for our family and a few friends. We have always loved South Haven and kept coming back to see what was available. This house was perfect! Nice quiet neighborhood, plenty of space (but not too much) inside and out and move in ready. Our realtor found it for us, there wasn't even a sign in the yard. Must have been meant to be!

What makes this property unique

It was love at first sight for me when I saw the front porch and adorable dormers. I also loved that the house sits between two homes on double lots so we're not as squished as some of the homes in town. The layout of the house is such that you don't feel on top of each other, even with a full house. The outdoor areas really help expand the space. You'll find me in the warmer months enjoying the front porch swing, a Mother's Day gift from our boys and their wives. It's the perfect spot for morning coffee or a glass of wine. The back deck is more private and a great place for dinner and beyond. The umbrella adds shade during the day.
We have a variety of games, for both inside and outside. For outside we have a badminton net and rackets, Yard Darts, Bocce, SpikeBall, bags, Giant Jenga and more. Inside there is a variety of board and card games.
