Great getaway

Perfect mini getaway. The house had everything we needed. Great location, quick drive to downtown South Haven. Perfect for families, game room and planet of space. Great communication with the host. Kids loved the indoor pool and golf cart. Probably the best rental we’ve stayed at.

Such a great place to stay!

The house was clean, plenty of towels, pillows and all the necessities! There was plenty off room in the sitting areas and kitchen. Kids loved the game room. The indoor/outdoor pool was very nice. The beach was aka short bike ride away. Would definitely book again!

First time South Haven

Dream House...every conceivable item in house made our stay so easy including a Tesla charger for our two cars. The floor plan was excellent as it allowed kids to be in different areas. The golf cart was a big hit with kids as were the bicycles towels and beach chairs. The garage was a kid's dream come true with video games on two huge screens. Already booking for next year. Mike and Carol both excellent hosts!
