Great location and perfect for families; Kids Corner Park is straight down our street just 2.5 blocks away and 3.5 blocks to the public access beach.

Plenty of seating inside and out. Make s'mores around the fire pit, enjoy the outdoor grill and hammock, gather on the back deck, enjoy movies, games, a record player, and free wi-fi.

In the kitchen, we provide a coffee maker, blender, and toaster in addition to the electric stove, refrigerator, and microwave. The kitchen is stocked with dishes, cookware, spices, and utensils. Paper towels, dish soap, and garbage bags are replenished weekly.

The second floor has a single open bedroom with private full bathroom.

The basement is equipped with laundry facilities for guest use, and the garage is available for gear storage as needed. The driveway is long enough for 3 cars, and street parking is allowed (mid-March thru mid-November). Beach towels and beach toys are available for use!

Garbage bins must be taken to the street for pickup and returned to the house mid-week.

Family getaway

We have been coming to South Haven as a family for decades. We’ve stayed in many different properties in town. This property had a great vibe and was a perfect place for us to relax between beach time and dinner. The music room was a great touch. Having on-site laundry was a huge benefit. The neighborhood was great, and close to the beach in the park, which made it wonderful for everyone.

Great location - cute beach house!

Excellent location! Quick walk to the park, beach, downtown shops and restaurants, and the marina! Quiet neighborhood. The property was as advertised and has everything you need for a great week at the beach/lake Michigan. Nice outside backyard area for lawn games, marshmallow roasting fires, and outdoor meals. The use of the garage was great for keeping beach and boat gear out of the house. Would book again!

Close to everything

We loved this house. It was cute with lots of character. The owners thought of everything. There was a wagon that we packed and took to the beach every day. Downtown, splash pad, Kids Corner park, and the beach are within walking distance. The owners were very responsive and welcoming and this was the perfect house for our 3 year old and 10 year old and us

House is very small, not well mantained! Renovation required! York

House needs to be cleaned well and renovated. Old furniture probably donated from demolished houses. Dust under sofa and beds is terrible, rags are not vacuumed properly. House is very small w limited closets and almost absent furniture especially in bedrooms. Common space is combined dining and leaving room, small even for a 4 people family. Basement is not usable in a very bad condition.
