About this property

Adorable Beach Bungalow. 1 Block from Town!

Quaint, cozy bungalow located one block from downtown South Haven. Within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, farmers market and the beautiful South Haven beach!

4 Bedroom, 2 Full Bath, Sleeps 8-10!
Perfect for two families or a large group of friends.

Amenities include a four-season front porch, beautifully landscaped, fenced backyard, picnic table and outdoor furniture, updated living room and bedroom furniture throughout the home, full kitchen including dishwasher; washer and dryer, BBQ grill and fire pit. Towels and linens are included. But, you’ll want to bring some beach towels!

This home is approaching 100 years old! And although we adore it and keep up with repairs and updates, somethings are hard to change — it has squeaky hardwood floors. Does that add to the charm, or annoy the heck out of you? You decide! If you have kids or infants that are light sleepers, you may want to pass on this charming almost century home!

Our home is very walkable from town, only 1 block from town with 3 parking spaces in the driveway. It is an excellent location, only about 3 blocks from the beach - which we walk! But, some would prefer to drive.

We really enjoyed the location of this home. It was very walkable to downtown and the beach. We loved the historic charm of the house but the floors were so squeaky that if anyone got up to use the restroom during the night, everyone else in the house was awoken. With elderly people in our group, this was a moderate concern. I appreciate old homes but just a fair warning to those groups with light sleepers.

Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your feedback. We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the location and the historic character of the home. You’re absolutely right that the floors can be squeaky. It’s one of the quirks that comes with an older historic property, and we do our best to make guests aware of that in the listing description. We understand that this can be challenging for light sleepers or groups with elderly family members. We appreciate your honest review and are glad you were able to enjoy everything else the home and location have to offer.

About the host

Hosted by Jennelle Kubina

Host profile image
We are from Cleveland Ohio - born and raised on the shores of Lake Erie. But, we have been visiting South Haven, MI for the last 5 summers and decided to go ahead and purchase a property - because we love the quaint atmosphere of the town, the shopping and restaurants, as well as with the beautiful beach and kids park.

Why they chose this property

This cute bungalow had the perfect location for us. Close enough to town to walk to the farmer's market, or Julia's for coffee. Close enough to the beach to walk, and ride bikes to the park. It is a quiet street and the home has a completely fenced in yard which is perfect for our extended family. We hope you love it as much as we do. And, we are looking forward to having many family vacations in South Haven for years to come.
