Beautiful South Haven Lake House; Newly Renovated and Decorated; Family-oriented

Our home is a beautiful Cape Cod that has been professionally decorated throughout. It is the epitome of a contemporary lake house: Light, colorful, stylish, with top-level upgrades. Plenty of space -- indoors and on the large back patio -- to relax. It offers 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 full baths, a large kitchen and dining area. The backyard features a large patio enough to comfortably accommodate large extended families -- gas grill, gas fire pit, and other features as well!

The location on the vrbo map is not accurate (see picture of map with correction location in our photos). We are 1/2 mile from the South Beach blue stairs, and about 1 mile from downtown.

Minimum 2-night stay except for peak season (end of May to beginning of September) when we only rent weekly (Saturday to Saturday).

In 2015, we did a COMPLETE overhaul of the home: Literally taking it down to the studs and putting in NEW kitchen cabinets, microwave, bathroom cabinets and features, washer and dryer, and carpeting and flooring throughout. The home also features a stainless steel stove, toaster, coffee pot, blender, mixer, outdoor gas grill, fire pit, air conditioning, comfortable 300+ count sheets, etc. Secured WiFi included, as well as a kitchen tv and large screen tv in the living room both of which have premier cable, access to many different channels, etc. We also provide an extensive array of board games, puzzles, and other interactive activities!

THIS IS NOT YOUR BASIC RENTAL.

Our home is special to us, and we are picky; if you are someone who appreciates the nice things in life and can take care of our home as if they were your own, this rental is for you. We require a security deposit of $600 which is fully refundable when the home is left as you found it.

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

We had a great week in South Haven, MI! The house was everything it advertised and all 9 of us fit perfectly. Check in access was simple and shared well in advance. The space was comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of utensils that allowed us to cook all our meals and we used the grill in back yard. We kept up with laundry using nice washer & dryer space. The large table & TV in kitchen area was our gathering spot- games, movies, meals... FUN Times!!

Wonderful house with plenty of beds for our big group. Great location to playground and south beach. We rented a golf cart but it is walkable as well. Nice big kitchen. Back yard is peaceful with a lot of grass space where our kids played. Loved the patio and fire pit at night. Would definitely stay again.

Family Vacation

Overall the stay was wonderful. The large yard was ideal for the kids to play. Inside there was ample room. However the only draw backs were the small bedroom downstairs which separated parents from kids in our situation (we knew one bedroom down but it was definitely small) and the sunroom had no ac in order to utilize it in a comfortable manner. Kitchen was well stocked in terms of cooking items. Only one roll of paper towels and a few rolls of toilet paper provided for a group of 10 was a bit disappointing. Also, no soap for dishes. One addition that would have been nice is a drying board for dishes. The grill grates were rusted so we didn’t grill. We did have an issue with the freezer and the host brought us a second one to use within hours which was awesome! Additionally there was an issue with the faucet in the tub not working, but again the host was there within hours to fix it! The walk to the blue stairs for beach access did not take long, even the kids were able to do it. The street that the house is on is quiet and very minimal traffic. Driveway is tight, but street parking was an option if necessary.

Especially enjoyed the walk to the beach, the backyard furnishings and the amazing kitchen. We cooked a meal for 60 people (although we did not have 60 people at the house) and had plenty of counter space. Had the feel of a lake cottage!!!!

Perfect home for a family wanting to enjoy time together

This property was very accurate to the description! We loved the great backyard, the playground got lots of use. Great yard to play croquet or throw a frisbee. Kitchen was incredibly spacious with everything you need for cooking in. The game closet was frequently used. Plenty of places for everyone to eat together. Rooms were perfect for our group. While 2 bathrooms was a concern, it was no issue. And the walking distance was perfect to the beach, downtown, Kids Corner, sunsets. We will return!

The house was perfect! 5 high school friends getting away to celebrate us turning 60. Quiet location. So close to downtown South Haven. Great spaces in the home to visit and play some games. But enough private rooms to have "me" time of needed. Would definitely rent this home again!
