Visit South Haven every year during blueberry season. This house is in a great location, lots close by. Clean and description is accurate.

Property was as expected. The large dining space and living room were very comfortable. Great area out back for grilling and sitting at large patio table. Kids enjoyed the park across the street. The location was very convenient to downtown - only a few minute drive and could technically be walked. As listed in other posts- walking upstairs was sometimes noisy but not the end of the world. Hosts left a lot of amenities (toilet paper, garbage bags, etc.) so it was nice to not have to rush out on our first day there.

Great property, good communication with Susi. The only concern- we could hear kids running upstairs but I don’t know what you can do about that

House was clean and very well stocked. Included all the conveniences we had hoped for. Located in a quiet neighborhood not far from the hub bub of South Haven. Would stay again. Upstairs might need a few rugs to soften the occasional walking sounds.

It isa good location, the house was clean, and the supplies were pretty good, but dealing with these owners was frustrating. Every important communication had to be evidenced by a legal document. The documents suggested that they had been burned in the past and that they felt that they really needed to protect themselves. For example, the rental agreement gave them a right to come in and inspect at any time? They claimed that there was an additional document that the city required - - but it was really just more "stuff" that they were worried about. from the tenants. This made us very nervous the whole stay - - what are they going to say that WE were responsible for? This made us very defensive the entire week - - which took away from our enjoyment of the property and our vacation. There were small things that they could have easily fixed, like a broken door handle to the bedroom, that they did not attend to.

We are first time renters on VRBO and we will be using it again. The owners of this property were very communicative and nice. The pictures are accurate, at least the downstairs rental. It was clean and bright. The teenage boys thought the cot closet was super cool and called it their “Man Cave”. We did have to buy toilet paper but everything else was great. Lots of towels and washcloths, plates and silverware. We left badminton rackets hoping that the next time we’ll get to play outdoors more. But if not, we hope another family will enjoy them. Thank you Susi and Adam for a much needed and last minute vacation getaway.

My husband and I stayed here with our 8 month old and absolutely loved the home and the neighborhood. Easy walk to downtown area and the lake, and there is a little park just across the street (the baby loved playing on the baby swings). The home itself is well kept, well stocked, and clean. Perfect for a small family for the weekend, and I’d consider it for a longer stay as well.

It was like our home away from home. This was the 3rd time we stayed at this property and would definitely recommend it. It was within walking distance of major attractions, yet sufficiently away from the noisy beach scene.

Great little “home away”…
Although we had a few small issues initially, the communication and prompt resolution push this stay to the top of the list. The unit is well appointed and comfortable, providing everything you need to have an escape to South Haven.

Great location, comfy beds, nice bathroom and kitchen. The perfect size for our family. We loved the board games and Legos. The only thing is that this is a basement and my husband had to duck in a couple spots to avoid hitting his head. He is 6'4" so if you are 6'2" or taller just beware of that. It didn't bother him too much. Otherwise, I would recommend this place to friends and family. Thank you for providing a great place for us to stay.

Beach Retreat in South Haven
The house is in a wonderful location; very close to the beach, restaurants, shops, and walking path. A park is just a short walk down the street. It is nicely furnished, with plenty of linens, and decorated with a beach theme. It’s very family-friendly with a large dining table, large kitchen, games to play, a bonus small kid area, and overall updated. The only difficulty we encountered was the noise generated from the family renting above us, at night in particular. We would recommend this house to any families vacationing in South Haven.

This is a great property in South Haven. Some of the benefits that set this property apart from others that we've stayed are:
-big mudroom/laundry room entrance was a great place to keep all of our beach gear and shoes.
-access to the washer and dryer was so helpful.
-really nice kitchen with great appliances and a huge pantry to put all of our food so it doesn't have to sit out all over the counters.
-tons of cable TV channels and movies were great when my kids woke up so early or on a rainy day
-outdoor shower to rinse off sand.
-big walk-in closet where all three of my kids slept comfortably so they could be close to us.
-we were able to walk to the downtown area for restaurants rather than searching for parking places
Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at this property we had a fabulous time.

Great place for toddlers!
We had a great time in South Haven. We stayed for 4 nights in this home with a 2–year old and it was really easy. There’s a pack and play and a mounted high chair available, although we brought our own booster. One of the bedrooms has a walk in closet with black our curtains, which is a great place to set up a travel crib or pack and play. The tub was also nice for baths! Our son loved running around the yard and the home is right across the street from a playground.
The property itself was very nice! The pictures were accurate. The home was comfortable and clean, and the smart tv was very easy to work. WiFi was also good! There are a ton of toys, puzzles, games, and other activities for young families. You can tell that Adam and Suzi have put a lot of time and effort into making the house welcoming. Location was also great. We would definitely stay here again!
The only thing I’ll note is that this property is downstairs and there is another rental upstairs. In the downstairs unit you can definitely hear the upstairs guests walking around. I don’t think the upstairs guests were doing anything exceptionally loud, you can just hear a lot of it downstairs. We had a noise machine for our son and it didn’t bother us, but if you are a very light sleeper or would be bothered by that, perhaps try renting the upstairs unit or another property.
