Great Location, Property, and Owner!

This is in a great spot if you are wanting to go to North Beach every day. The floors are well laid out and the king beds were nice in each bedroom. The 3rd floor bar, seating area and balcony were a fabulous touch! The owner was very responsive and sent a couple of things to the house the next day that we were lacking. It was impressive! We would definitely stay again.

Spacious House in great location

We had a great stay in South Haven at Big Blue! The house is spacious and well maintained and in a great location for those wanting quick beach access. Other sights (maritime museum, downtown, coffee shop) were a short to medium walk away. The owner/manager was quick to respond to any questions by text.

Perfect for our family

Property was amazing and exactly as described. House was walking distance from beach and was big enough so the 3 couples never felt like we were stepping on each other. It had everything we needed and even a few toys for the kids to play with. 10/10 would recommend.

Received a welcome text from owner upon arrival ensuring access if we needed anything. Never had to call. Great location! House has everything, very clean and plenty of space. Teens loved that all 6 of them could share a room and the 3rd floor was perfect for our small dance party of 12. Highly recommend!

Perfect home and location!

We stayed with our 3 young children (5, 2.5, 9mos), my mom, my sister and her fiance. There was plenty of room in the common areas, as well as separate spaces for anyone tired of being around the babies! The bedrooms were all large, clean, and had king beds. The bunk room had all queens and was so solid I never worried about my kids. The hosts were wonderful as well. This is the first home we've been to with pack and plays, highchairs, and baby gates available if we needed. So many thoughtful touches that made it family-friendly. We used the available wagon to walk to the beach, which was so close and so easy to access. We would definitely stay here again!
