We loved the location and were very comfortable in the cottage. Great neighborhood for running and walks and so close to the beautiful beach and downtown area! We really enjoyed having so much to do so close by.

Was a great house that fitted our needs of a family of 4. Outdoor screened in porch was a great bonus area.
While it is close to the beach straight west you do have to walk a few more blocks if you have a wagon as the closest beach access is all stairs. Overall not an issue. Quick walk to town as well

We loved this little place. We have been coming to South Haven for many years but this is the first time we rented a place. This location was perfect for our young family. The house had just enough space and added items that made traveling with our kiddos great! Would definitely come back and visit this sweet little home again.

This was a great place to rent. It was a short walk to the beach. The screened-in porch was an additional bonus space. The shed was stocked with bikes and beach items. No dishwasher, but we managed without it.

Love this place! It's a good price (relative to other much more costly houses) for a place that is close to Lake Michigan and great for families. We love all the fun stuff for kids in the garden shed (including cornhole and hula hoops) and the enclosed back porch which gives the house an extra room that's al fresco!
Improvements that could be made include: stocking some swim towels; maybe some different color bath towels so people don't get so confused by which white towel is theirs; cleaning out the bath drain between bookings; unblocking the bathroom sink drain so the water flows out properly; and stocking a few more items in the kitchen like an ice-cream scoop and a good set of plastic tumblers and dishes to be used outside. We are big fans of the house, having returned this summer, and definitely recommend it to others!

It's a nice little house that's well maintained and well furnished, and it's in an unbeatable location. BUT the mattress on the queen-sized bed was incredibly uncomfortable, and there's no dishwasher even though listing says there is one.

Great little house with lots of amenities... everything you need, except for any alarm clocks in the bedrooms... those were sorely needed. Everything else was amazing!

Had what we needec
The property had everything we needed (although we did not cook and only used coffee cups and glasses). Screened in porch was great for morning coffee. Decor was cute. While the bathroom was updated, I think better materials would make a difference. And you could only get in the shower by squeezing between the sink and the sliding door. For someone very heavy or with limited mobility, that would be a serious problem.

Cute cottage for a simple summer getaway
We really liked the cottage... it's cute and old-school though nicely updated. Has plenty of beds and nice fun decor details and games for kids. Love the screened-off porch area to fend off mosquitoes and strung with nice lights. Great shed with bikes, and beach wagon. A few things to be improved on: could supply kitchen towels (at least I didn't find them). The property also needs a recycling bin instead of 2 regular trash wheelies... because a lot of what you use could easily be recycled. That seems like a no-brainer for a VRBO property in 2021! Only things that could have been cleaned better... the bath drain (ick!) and sweeping the previously mentioned porch so it's not all sandy. Other than that, we'd do it again... super location, near the beach and reasonably near town. We heart South Haven!

The WiFi was a haste, I would have preferred not to trouble shoot with the owner over the phone.
The WiFi was a haste, I would have preferred not to trouble shoot with the owner over the phone. Just send someone to the property.
A more personal check in would be nice, with suggestions for diner and touring. Working with team members were helpful. They addressed the issues and followed up which was appreciated.
