We had the best time celebrating my bachelorette weekend here! The house was super clean, cozy, and just two blocks from the beach in South Haven—plus a 3 minute drive to all the cute shops and restaurants downtown. The host was great with communication, and check-in was super simple. I would definitely book again for another girls’ getaway!

The cleanest rental you’ll ever stay in

Andy and Daniall are excellent hosts! Their home is well-stocked with everything you could need on visit. The house is so clean! We’ve stayed in many rentals over the years, but none have ever wowed with cleanliness. This one is spotless!! The location is great, too. South Haven is a treasure and we hope to be back again.

It was almost perfect

The house was very nice and nicely updated. Really, the only problem we had was that we didn’t get to enjoy the expected length of stay. We had an agreement for a late check out which the owner then rescinded after it was too late for us to cancel. It was agreed for us to have the late check out to accommodate a special needs individual. I followed up to make sure this was agreed upon and I was reassured. I was appreciative that they were being understanding. But, when the opportunity arose for them to rent the house for our check out day,they rented it, thus breaking their word and telling us to vacate earlier. It made the entire check-out day schedule chaotic and dampened our stay, and we had to cancel our trip into town and proceed home.

Every detail thought of

Totally wowed. Our family of 4 with two small children (and our doodle, Beau) stayed in the cottage for Thanksgiving weekend and were so delighted by all the cute details, high end finishes and a level of cleanliness that I have never seen in a short term rental. Every surface was sparkling clean including the floors, the linens and everything in between. High end touches like nice blow dryers, little soaps, enough dishes and pans to actually cook. Thank you to Andy and Daniall for being responsive and kind hosts and putting so much care into your cottage. We can’t wait to visit another time.

Great place to stay

We’ve had great luck with Michigan and South Haven did not disappoint! The property was clean and cozy- my kids LOVED the upstairs loft with bunk beds, their own television and bathroom. They didn’t want to leave! The hosts were responsive and had plenty of toiletries and extras on hand for us. It’s a great location. We walked to the beach everyday. The street was nice and quiet. The only downside was how uncomfortable the primary bed was.

The house was super cute and had plenty of room for our family of 7, 4 adults, 2 teens, and a toddler! We were able to walk to everything, the shops, restaurants, and the beach without any issues! The street that it’s on is super cute and seems very safe! There were people walking everywhere, just seems like a cute little beach town! It was our first time visiting Michigan and we will definitely be back and hopefully be able to rent this same house!
