Screened porch, with view of big water, perfect spot for that morning coffee, either around the porch table or on the porch swing. Short walk to park, shopping and restaurants. Swimming, fishing, crabbing, boating, kayaking, and more at your front door. Located next to the River Forest Manor and Marina. Watch the big boats coming in for the night off the Intracoastal Waterway. And the sunsets are amazing!

Christmas Joy

The home was "So Clean" and also decorated tastefully for the holidays! The Children were thrilled with the beautiful Christmas tree. The beds were very comfortable and great accommodations for 2 families with 5 children! The kitchen was great but the dining room table was even better, room for all! It was a wonderful Christmas at The Haven!! Thank you for being such fantastic hosts!

Birthday Getaway

The Haven was an excellent choice for our 4-day family birthday celebration. The house is beautiful, very clean, and has lots of room for our group of 6. The location is a short walking distance from town, so we either walked or rode bikes to the restaurants and shops. The neighborhood is also good for walking. We did not get to swim because while we were there the weather was very windy and the water was rough, but we did take advantage of the dock and the Adirondack chairs to enjoy watching the boat traffic, especially the fast boats that were having a "parade" on Saturday. We did catch a few crabs, too. Donna is an excellent host, and is readily available by text/phone to answer questions and give suggestions about places to visit in town. Thank you, Donna, for the welcome gift - a book written by a local author. We would hope to stay at The Haven should we visit this part of the area again!

Perfect, perfect, perfect!

This house has everything. It has views of the river, three living rooms, a well stocked kitchen, very attractive bedrooms with comfortable beds, beautiful bathrooms and a screened porch with a swing. There is a dock across the street and Adirondack chairs along with sun umbrellas. The decor is sophisticated and cozy at the same time. The host has excellent taste!

Our Furst Cousins Reunion

The property was a delight to stay in, comfortable rooms and amenities. Space isn't a problem for a large group. Master bedroom and bathroom are huge. Kitchen and dining room are wonderful. We will stay in this place again if we are in the area. Top notch is the house, I'd give it 4 1/2 stars. No full bathroom downstairs, that's why I gave the rating I did.

Groom Family’s Retreat

The Haven provided a perfect setting for my family the weekend of my son’s wedding at River Forest Manor. We booked the home because of its proximity to the Manor, and that feature was priceless! The charm of the house, the screen porch, the dock, and the chairs by the water provided perfect places to relax and talk with family and friends during the day. We loved the town and the people. Our host communicated with us regularly and made us feel welcomed in The Haven and in Belhaven.

5 Stars Isn't Enough

My husband surprised me for my 60th B-day with our stay at The Haven. Wow, The Haven surpasses all expectations! The layout, attention to detail, planning and decorating this home is exceptional! Absolutely beautiful and tastefully decorated. The home was so wonderfully clean. We have rented A LOT of places and usually have issues with cleanliness - that was certainly not an issue! Every thing you could possibly need was available. The dock was wonderful and the fish certainly didn't disappoint. We caught spots, croakers, pin fish. Donna was great to work with. Oh, and the mini birthday cake she left - well, that was just the icing on the cake. Highly, highly recommend!!

Great Family Getaway!

We had two couples and 8 kids, and this was a great place to get away for some fun! The kids loved swimming in the river and catching crab in the trap. The house was clean and had plenty of space for us. The screened in porch in the front had fabulous waterfront views, and the kids had a blast playing in the large back yard. We used the grill and fire pit and also enjoyed sitting on the dock at night to stargaze. Belhaven is a very cute town, and the bikes on the property were great for riding around. The street is between the front of the house and the dock, but cars in the area generally drive very slowly and watch for people. The people we met in town were very friendly. If you're looking for a place to relax on the river, this is it!

Best Peaceful Getaway

Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home. It was the perfect quiet getaway for our family. We loved having meal and game time, movie time, crabbing, and enjoying the view. You have decorated the home so thoughtfully and lovely. Everything was comfortable, and we wanted for nothing. We hope we can stay again in the future. We will be having weddings and graduations over the next two years, so we don't know our schedules yet. Hopefully we can visit your wonderful "Haven" again. Love, The Hinmans

What makes this property unique

Belhaven's quaint downtown is a short stroll from The Haven, making it easy for Guests to enjoy the quality shops and services and a variety of restaurants as well as the local marinas and the town docks. And the view from the screen porch or the private dock is why this home was named The Haven, a place of retreat and refuge.
