Family Vacation
The location was perfect. We were walking distance to everything we wanted to do in South Haven. Having so many games and activities for my children was great. We basically used every inch of the house.
The only slight negative was that the master door didn't shut without a lock, having older doors and windows in the home. I would want someone else to know that. But, we got over that quickly because everything else was accommodating. We would stay here again!

Great location
The location was key for us this place is perfect for that. 2 min walk to beach 5 min to downtown.
The home is an older one and in need of a dehumidifier, it smelled old/dusty damp upon our arrival which improved after cooking in the home and a few other adjustments. It was low 60s to low 80s not very humid out during our week stay. The furniture in the living room could also use some updating.
The home was incredibly clean. Well stocked including every tool you could think of in the kitchen and plenty of pots/pans. Plenty of supplies for the kids too; toys, game console, step stools, beach toys, coloring books etc.
Plenty of space for all to sleep comfortably, large dining table, and new fridge, washer dryer to boot. We enjoyed our stay and plan on staying in south haven again.
