Great house

This house was the nicest we've booked in South Haven. Close to town and the beach. Very well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Has lots of beach toys, corn hole, pingpong, foosball, etc. Lots to entertain the kids from 2 to 14. The owner was easy to deal with. Thanks!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is in a perfect location—close to downtown and the beach. Easy to walk to everything. The house itself is stocked with everything you could need to cook/bbq for a family(which we did many nights), spend the day at the beach or just hang out in the yard. It worked really well for our multi-generational family. We had everything we needed for our toddler granddaughter. We would definitely recommend the home for a great stay in South Haven.
