We really enjoyed the house for our family trip to South Haven. The kitchen/living room space was great for us to hangout together at night and the location was very convenient to walk to the beach and downtown. We barely used our car. The house was as expected and had plenty of beach chairs and toys for us to use. Thanks for sharing your home!

That cottage was nice but it was not a good match for our family. We had 9 adults and it was tight. I can see how the cottage would be ideal if our 5 "kids" were little ones. I would recommend the cottage but not for people with "big" kids.

My family and I stayed at the cottage along with a few other family members to celebrate my mother in law’s 60th birthday. The cottage was perfect for what we needed. The cottage is not far from all of the things that South Haven has to offer!! Thank you for a great weekend!

Had an overall positive experience, even if the weather didn’t cooperate with us! Was a little bit of construction on the road but not a huge deal. Home was as advertised with plenty of space for all. Host was extremely communicative and thorough. Enjoyed our stay!

Super well-equipped with just about anything you could imagine needing for kitchen and for young children. A short, pleasant walk to the beach. Katherine checked in to make sure that our stay was going well.

If you read the various reviews, you eill get a good picture of this rental. So I won't repeat them. The number of beds for the price and location are great. And plenty of seating in dining and living rooms was plenty for all. (I have found this is not the case in all rentals.) The owner was very responsive to requests and questions we had. The information given for our preparation was super helpful. We guessed the cottage is about 100 years old but all the important things, kitchen, bathrooms and electrical are totally modern. You notice the old in the tiny closets, odd vents and creaky floors. The floors created a bit of consternation for us as it was impossible to move around quietly in the kitchen in order not to disturb the family with baby downstairs. And, the kitchen island lights reflect brightly through the opening at top of stairs. I only add these things for those to whom it would make a difference. The array of beach gear, kitchen items and games makes it a great choice if you will be flying and limited in what you bring. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!
