Wonderful location

The house was perfectly located, close to beach, Kids Korner and downtown. It was clean and well stocked. Communication was excellent with owner. Downsides were queen mattresses in poor condition and little drawer space. But, at our request, hangers were delivered promptly. The upstairs TV is for dvds only.

Perfect Family Stay

We LOVED our week in this home. My mother, brother, husband, myself and our teen and toddler sons stayed here. It was very comfortable for all of us. The kitchen was well-stocked, there were tons of board games, and we had enough paper products to last the week with some left over. We enjoyed the hammock and outdoor dining table in the backyard, as well as the porch swing on the front porch. We did have to bring all of our beach and baby gear. It would have been nice to have some of those items included at the house (beach towels, wagon, pack n’ play, high chair, etc.). We were offered a pack n’ play and high chair for an additional cost, but we brought our own to avoid the extra cost. The location is perfect for families. We walked to the beach every day and it’s on the same street as the Kid’s Corner playground. We were also close enough to get downtown via a 10-15 minute walk. Just around the corner is the trailhead for the Van Buren State Park bike trail, and the neighborhood itself is very bike-friendly. We love South Haven! Thank you.
