About this house rental
This home sits high on the lot facing the Black River. The sun streams through the abundant windows, giving the home lots of natural light. Sounds of the river and lake, festivals across the water and views of beautiful boats sailing by all day make this residence spectacular. The large deck is perfect for having meals on and watching the action of the river and people strolling by.
There are no stairs to get to the biggest, most beautiful beach in SW Michigan!!
Four bedrooms. Three full bathrooms. Sleeps 10 comfortably in beds in bedrooms. (Plus a daybed for 12 total beds). It's just a short walk over to the North Pier, vastly beautiful North Beach, and wonderful downtown. South Haven is completely walkable. Once you're here there is no need to get in the car again! Follow the river and marina over the bridge to explore the many delightful shops, catch a movie, or grab a bite.
One of the best rental properties in Southwest Michigan!

Great hosts -- they reached out ahead of the visit and responded quickly during the visit with any questions we had. Location is awesome -- short walk to the beach, not a bad walk into town. We took the kids to the beach multiple times a day, didn't worry about taking food because we knew it was a short walk back to the house. House is great -- very well equipped kitchen, relaxing inside and outside space, plenty of space for kids to play, and there were puzzles, games, legos, and barbies. Loved everything about our visit!

Fantastic property in South Haven
This home is amazing! It comfortably held our group of 11 with plenty of space to spread out. We spent the majority of our time on the gorgeous new deck, enjoying the view of the river. Being a few rows back from the beach allows for a little more space and a quiet atmosphere, but it is a super quick walk to the beach, and we easily did it multiple times per day. The owners are quick to respond, and allowed us to use their beach chairs and toys which was much appreciated! This home has everything you could possibly need for a perfect week in South Haven!

Love the set-up of the house. You know that you are staying in their home - not just a beach rental. The location is incredibly convenient to beach and town and we loved watching the boats, hearing a concert across the river, and walking along the river to the beach. Even though it is a main street, it wasn't too busy and the kids liked watching the world pass by. Two patios were great - one in the back which was cool and secluded and one in the front overlooking the water. We put a chaise lounge across the stair opening to keep the 2 year old contained. The main bedroom is on the first floor so all the kids and grandkids were upstairs. The house is large enough that there is plenty of room in case you are stuck inside and also not to wake sleeping children. Having the garage to store all of our beach stuff in was ideal. They have a little garden which we watered for toddler quiet time. We like the beach at the end of the north beach so this was perfect. I hope to stay there again.

No other way to put it other than it was perfect. Had 6 of us (including 2 kids under 6) and we all had a blast. Great location and the bin of Legos / Barbies were a huge hit!

The home was great as were the owners . I have stayed in the Monroe park area for over 20 years and this was one of the nicest homes we could have rented. The owners were great and the only time I had a question they responded within 5 min. The owners were extremely nice and even called immediately after I first rented to thank me. I would highly recommend this home as it is beautiful and spacious. They offered us the use of their chairs , sand toys etc. which we really appreciated. The home is everything they say and more . The owners responsiveness and willingness to make our stay enjoyable is a plus.

The Fishbowl is a beautiful, spacious home with great amenities. Our family had such a wonderful time enjoying the home, North beach, the sunsets and the short walk to town. What more can you ask for in a vacation.

Family fun
Third time to South Haven, best one. My wife and I went twice before and wanted to bring the kids, ages 9-29. Great time, great house, Jill needs to take more pictures, the house is better when you see it. Location is perfect, walk to the beach, walk or bicycle to town. The reason we chose the Fishbowl, location and gathering places, kitchen and deck. Pick the Fishbowl you’ll be glad you did.

Great experience for my entire family. Convenient location. Just a minutes walk from the beach. In the evening we sat on the spacious deck and watched the boats come in. The large island in the kitchen provided a fun space for playing games and evening meals. The house is spacious clean and modern. We can’t wait for next year. Thanks Jill and Greg!!

We stayed at the Fishbowl for four weeks and thoroughly enjoyed the very comfortable home with a fantastic view and wonderful deck where we watched the boats coming and going in the channel. The owners were immediately responsive when we had questions. The new master bedroom and bath, the completely updated kitchen with a large table island, the sunken family room and the two laundry area are awesome. With three other bedrooms, a garage and a short walk to the beach, you won’t find a better place for your vacation in South Haven.

The house is large, comfortable, and well appointed. We really enjoyed it. The location can't be beat! We did have problems figuring out how to use the AC though.

My family and I (4 adults and 3 kids), had a great time at the Fishbowl for 9 nights! There was more than enough room for all of us to be comfortable. It's so nice to have the water-view of the harbor as well as close proximity to North Beach (about 3-5 minutes walk with kids and beach equipment). We did also walk to town which is about 15 minutes depending on where. We spent a lot of time at the beach, went blueberry picking, drove up to Holland for dinner and fun. Overall, had a great time! And the owners, Jill and Greg, were very responsive and easy to work with. Great vacation!!

The "Fishbowl" provided a fantastic location for our adults (6) and kids (4) with a short walk to North Beach and a moderate walk to downtown shops and restaurants. The home provided all necessary accommodations and necessary stuff! Also, enough room for our daily Traditional cornhole games.
The deck overlooking the river is a nice feature when relaxing after a busy day.
All in all the "Fishbowl" provides a comfortable space in a great location and Jill and Greg are very helpful and easy to work with.

Great house and location
Fish Bowl proved to be a perfect house for our vacation to South Haven, Michigan. Our party had three adults and three children so there was plenty of room. Things we liked most about our stay would be the outside deck, basketball hoop, bedroom accommodations, river views, and perhaps the most important...location. This was our first time to South Haven and based on what we read North Beach was the perfect place for a vacationing family. We observed that North Beach was somewhat quieter than South Beach with not as much foot/beach traffic. This is more our style to be away from the busier areas. The beach was crowded but not excessively. We brought our own golf cart which provided quick and easy access to downtown and other areas throughout South Haven. Fish Bowl is central to almost everything South Haven has to offer.
The owners were very accommodating to all of our needs and requests. We felt at home in their home. Our only issue with the house was the fact that there are only two bathrooms but hey we knew this when we booked.

Great!
Great property for a great family vacay. Prop is spread out enough to easily allow 6 adults and 2 kids plenty of room to move about without feeling crowded. Though two bathrooms would be diff to manage, but it worked out well. Great kitchen w/ a great harbor and ppl watching view. Easy to access town and the beach from this spot. Great viz and wld def dent it again.
