Mike was a pleasure to work with. He was very prompt in getting back to us and even found someone to come over and give our car a jump when it didn't start the morning we were leaving.Unit 2 was lovely and quaint. It was extremely cleanWe were able to easily walk to town and enjoy the Ice Breaker festival. Highly recommend.
This was the absolute perfect place to stay for our first time in South Haven! The location couldn't be better - so close to the water, all the boats, the beach, the downtown. We walked everywhere!
The apartment had everything we needed and was so comfortable. We really had the best time and will absolutely be back!
We loved being in South Haven and this apartment location was perfect. Michael was very quick to respond and was super helpful. The place was comfortable, clean and well stocked.
We have stayed at this property several times. Location is fantastic, easy walk to downtown and the beach. Easy access to the bike trails. Michael does a great job communicating check in and check out instructions. Very clean.
It was a very cozy comfortable place. We loved being blocks from the beach and blocks from downtown with great restaurants and shopping. We would definitely consider staying there again. One of our best vacations ever
This property was perfect for our weekend getaway. Walking/biking distance to beach and the down town area. We walked every where. Very cozy and quiet area. Michael was easy to arrange things with. We would definitely rent again.
Great location! We loved our stay at this property. The apartment had everything we needed and the bed was incredibly comfortable. Each unit has an outdoor dining table and chairs. We enjoyed having morning coffee and people watching on the deck. We will be back!
Quick, easy check in. Even got to check in a bit early when we arrived in town. Clean, updated property. Few blocks walk to downtown. Excellent location for the price! Definitely recommend and would stay again. Michael was very prompt with his response to any questions we had.
My husband wanted a trip to the beach. We had 4 days off and needed someplace close to home. I found this listing and it was perfect. We literally walked everywhere. The car stayed parked the entire time. On our fir
We arrived to a very clean and quaint place to stay for two nights! There was so much natural light and the deck area was a nice extra space!! The location was perfect - only a block or two from the downtown as well as the marina where you could watch the boats go in and out towards the lake. We could not have asked for anything better!! We really appreciate the attention to details and especially a clean place to stay!
The property owners were great and very responsive. Location was perfect. The apartment (#1) was great especially first night when no renters were above us but 2nd night we could hear every step and their voices pretty clearly.

Heaven at the beach!
Loved our time at the Michiana, sweet and clean and everything we needed for our weekend getaway. Owners have taken much pride in making this little home a slice of heaven at the beach!! Very close to town and to the beach. We rode our bikes everywhere. Owners were great to work with and we are already looking at our schedules to see when we can come back!
My wife and I rented this place for a getaway weekend. The place was very updated and clean. The location (close to the beach and downtown) was geat as well. Communication with the owner was awsome! The only suggestion I have is the TV could be updated. It is not a smart tv, so you cant choose to watch Netflix or other streaming services. It's still 5 stars though, and I would stay there again if in the area.
Came up for a short overnight road trip to the town of South Haven, and this place is perfectly located right between the beach and the shops/restaurants/downtown area! Once you arrive you can walk to just about anything in the heart of the town you'd want to enjoy.
Nice clean apartment to stay in. Did not cook or anything in the kitchen but everything seemed like this place would be great and practical for an extended stay as well.
Only one down note purely due to personal preference - the bed is really firm - this worked out great for my girlfriend, not so much for me who needs as much cushion as possible.
We had a great time in South Haven and the property is a great location. We did have a few issues including the smoke detector going off constantly when only preheating the oven to prepare dinner, lower cabinet door in kitchen fell off, a rhythmic squeaking noise that we think was coming from a washing machine went on for a good hour twice during our stay. Love the property but just needs to attention.

Great weekend getaway!
We headed up to South Haven for a weekend away from the hustle and bustle of life in Chicago. We really enjoyed our stay at the Michiana! The condo was adorable, very clean, and the location cannot be beat. While we were there in the off season (which we enjoyed as it was incredibly quiet and peaceful), I can imagine that this location would be especially convenient in the summer months as it is a few short blocks from both the town and beach. The owner was very easy to work with as he responded to questions promply, called us the day of our arrival, and sent a personal email with recommendations for the area. There were a few things missing in the kitchen, however the owner asked us on his own to let him know if there was anything missing or anything that could have made our stay better. He was also available by phone and text throughout our stay. The unit was updated and thoughtfully decorated to reflect a beach theme. I would highly recommend a stay at the Michiana and we look forward to going back again!
This is our second time and we are so grateful to have found this place.

About the host
Hosted by Michael Biedermann
It seems with most beach towns in Southwest Michigan, if you stay at the beach, you have to drive in to town. Conversely, if you stay in town, you have to drive to the beach. South Haven offers the ability to walk to both. The South Beach and downtown area are only a short three block walk from the Michiana. Life is good and the living is easy!
Why they chose this property
The Michiana was originally built in the late 1800s as a large single family home. It was then converted into four apartments consisting of two, two bedroom apartments and two, one bedroom apartments. Since we purchased the property, we have made a significant investment of both time and resources to update the building and individual apartments. We feel we have retained the original architectural character while providing most of today's modern conveniences. While the location is incredible, we also love the charm of the place itself. It says 'Home'!
What makes this property unique
We enjoy the easy access to the South Beach as well as the less than five minute walk to downtown South Haven. Once the groceries are purchased, there is no need for your car again. We have said it so many times but it is true... once you come to South Haven, it feels as though all of life's struggles seem to be lifted. We hope you are able to experience the same feeling. Also... this apartment is located in the same building as our other listing: vrbo 343005 which is right next door! This adds two additional bedrooms and one additional bath. A great set up for additional friends and family. The more the merrier!!!
