Beautiful location, very comfortable home. Katherine responded immediately to any of my texts. All the directions for how things work were very clear and all was super easy, making our stay more relaxing. Beach was amazing, saw deer running around the neighborhood, loved it!

Great place for 2 families
So much to do in the gated neighborhood. We walked to the large private beach (plenty of sand) and enjoyed the huge backyard, complete with frisbee golf. The house itself was wonderful. Beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked with what we needed. The hot tub was enjoyed. There is a great Dutch Farm Market nearby with all kinds of produce, ice cream and baked goods. Overall a lovely place without any drawbacks!

Exceeds expectations
We stayed here for 3 nights, 10 people with children. We were very impressed with each room, area outside, attention to every detail. The house was tidy, had every appliance needed. There were plenty of outdoor and indoor activities for both children and adults. We were very lucky with the weather, so stayed outdoors a lot, therefore had a chance to watch some little animals visiting the area. The private beach is very close. The communication with Katherine was great. We loved the stay and would recommend it to everyone.

We truly enjoyed our time at Glenn Haven. The gated community gave us a real sense of security, and the beach was great. We could tell the owner tried to think of everything that could make our stay enjoyable and comfortable.

Wonderful Home
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely home setting. Everyone appreciated the labeling, instructions and organization of things in the house. The favorite by everyone was the easy access of the private beach. We elected to really go to no others for our beach time. We had 7 adults and one 7 year old. The dining table was great for eating and playing games. We had two disc golf nuts who loved just being able to pop out and throwfor a bit. Since Glen Haven was in between Saugutak and South Haven, we could easily go either way in a short drive to see food, libations, other fun and shopping. As a recomendation, my 32 yr old son has disabiities and would have benefited from a grab bar in the shower. Since hehas balance and walking issues, we had him stay in the BR downstairs with the bath. Had trouble getting in and out by himself. Thanks for thebeautiful and wonderful vacation.

Easy walk to the beach
We stayed with friends (and our kids) for New Years and really enjoyed this place. The neighborhood is great to walk around and an easy trip down to the beach, or just an overlook to see the lake. The kids loved all the ice at the beach and we would definitely like to stay again in the summer.

A restful Thanksgiving getaway...
Our family stayed for several days in November over Thanksgiving. The house was spotless and there was more than enough space for the 5 of us to spread out while we were there. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a full Thanksgiving dinner and the dishwasher made clean-up a snap. We thoroughly enjoyed conversing in the hot tub and the kids liked watching movies and shooting hoops in the driveway. We all took several short walks to the beach to watch the sunset over Lake Michigan and for beachcombing for rocks and sea-glass. This house was comfortable, clean, and very well-stocked. The owners had compiled quite a neat and comprehensive binder of local trips, tips, restaurants, and general info/suggestions that we found most helpful. We'd stay here again for sure!

Beautiful home in Grand Haven
The house was very clean! There was also a large backyard to hang out. Unfortunately, due to the weather we weren’t outside but there was a hot tub and fire pit as an added bonus. The owner was very accommodating, answered questions promptly, very knowledgeable of the area and offered recommendations to explore nearby. The welcome basket was very sweet and a nice added touch to the stay. I’d definitely stay again.

A hidden GEM!!
Easy check-in/out process. Nice private area with its own beach access. Clean, comfy, and homey. Low water pressure meant that you could only have 1 water source on at a time (dishwasher, shower, hose, etc). Because you had to shower one at a time, it took the 7 of us in our party over an hour for everyone to have a turn. Conveniently located with access to nearby cities. Spotty cell service in the area. Gated community feels safe. Nice sitting areas inside/outside for larger groups. Peaceful setting with groundhogs, bunnies, and a deer family. Owner provides extensive listing of nearby restaurants, shopping, and things to do! Overall a great experience and one our family thoroughly enjoyed!

Why they chose this property

We love Lake Michigan and wanted a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of Chicago. We love the big yard for games, campfires, and star gazing. We love climbing the rocks on the beach, and being close to both Saugatuck and South Haven. We hope you will love it too!
