About this house rental
As soon as you walk into this modern split level, you'll feel right at home. The entire space is light, bright, and modern with all the extra touches to make your vacation unforgettable. A free-flowing open layout on the main level is all you need, but you've got an entire lower level of bonus space for the crew to spread out, plus a converted garage game room.
Living Spaces
The well-appointed main living room is such a welcoming spot to unwind after a day on the beach. Huge windows and glass sliders to the wrap-around deck allow plenty of natural light to flood the space, which is decorated with comfortable, high-end furniture centered around a cozy gas fireplace. Get the fire going and curl up with a book, watch TV on the sofa, or use the bar seating for two as the perfect workspace for the kids' homework or if you need to check in with the office. Craving a little bit of separation? Send the kids downstairs to the second living room – the perfect hangout spot. On rainy days, relax on the sectional and stream your favorite shows on the huge flatscreen TV, or grab some games from our selection and host a friendly competition at the game table. Stock the wet bar with drinks and s'mores supplies for easy access when you head out through the sliders to the fire pit on the patio. If two large living rooms aren't enough space, head to The Garage. Converted into a full game room, the garage will keep everyone entertained. We've got ping pong, darts, vintage arcade games (Pac-Man, anyone?), and a Smart TV to keep the crew busy for hours. Open the doors to bring the outside in, grab a seat on the couch, and let the fun begin.
Peak & Non-Peak Season
During the peak season, this home would have a 7-night minimum and would rent Saturday - Saturday. If you are interested in staying a full week in the non-peak season, September through April, please send in an inquiry with your travel dates and we are happy to supply weekly pricing for your trip. During the non-peak season, 2 night reservations will receive a 3rd night free! Restrictions may apply, please inquire for more details about the additional night.
Cooking & Dining
When you're back from the lake and ready for a snack, head to the beautifully-designed, modern kitchen. It's fully equipped with state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, tons of storage for your groceries, and ample counter space for meal prep. Brew a single cup or full pot of coffee, use the 6-burner stove for your culinary creations, and enjoy views of greenery in the private backyard while you're washing the dishes. Have a casual meal at the built-in breakfast nook, or host a more formal affair at the dining table with seating for eight.
Bed & Bath
This split-level floor plan is the perfect setup for two families vacationing together or large families that need some space to spread out. With three bedrooms (including the primary suite) upstairs and two bedrooms and a sleeper sofa downstairs, there are endless options for places to rest your head. And if you do travel with a large group, the large capacity washer and dryer in the mudroom will definitely come in handy.
Outdoor Spaces
When you have the beach just a short walk away, you might not care too much about the backyard. But you should! Because this private backyard is the perfect place to make memories with the family. Set up fun lawn games in the large, grassy yard, grill and dine al fresco on the upper deck off of the kitchen, and gather around the fire pit on the flagstone patio. New in the Spring of 2023 was the addition of the hot tub. In the front of the house, lounge on comfortable outdoor furniture in the shade on the covered wrap-around deck. And, of course, enjoy the peak lake views. When you're ready to head to the beach, we're only a few houses down and across the street from First Street Beach. Take a 5-minute walk, or ride your bike down. We provide bikes, beach chairs, a beach wagon, umbrellas, and sand toys, so all you have to do is enjoy Lake Michigan.

This is one of the best maintained properties that we've ever stayed at. Everything was really clean and the furniture and appliances were all high quality. The house was gorgeous. We mostly cooked for ourselves during the week and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed to prepare our meals. The game room was lots of fun with an old school video game, ping pong table, corn hole, etc.
I wish it was a beachfront property but it was just a 5 minute walk to the beach. We appreciated the wagon so that we could bring chairs, umbrella, etc. to the beach easily. It was also great to have 6 bicycles so that we could ride to town and get some ice cream.
The house also had a really nice big TV in the lower level and so each night we would watch a movie together.
Next time we go to South Haven, I would definitely consider renting this house again!

The house was beautiful, in an amazing location, and great size for our family group. However, from the moment we got there we felt incredibly unwelcome. Which is unfortunate when you are trying to relax on vacation, feel safe in a new location, and you spent money to be there. There are great outdoor spaces, but expect to not use anything outdoors after 10pm and still keep to a very quiet volume INSIDE the home as well.
Shortly after arrival, a rental company representative was present onsite. They took recycling bin to street, but definitely felt like we were being checked on.
Then neighbors were repeatedly walking up and down their driveway staring at us as well. It felt as if we were already disliked by purely renting a home in their neighborhood. The Neighbor even yelled at our kids because they got too close to his lawn.
The first night we were there, a small group of older adults were up until about midnight laughing in the garage game room. I received a phone call and text to notify me that the police would be called if they received a 3rd noise complaint.
At check out, as we were entering our vehicles to leave, a rental representative came and parked in the drive exactly at 10am on the dot for check out. She was very rude and we felt bullied to leave immediately.
I have never been treated so poorly by a company or neighbors of a VRBO. I have also never felt so monitored on vacation. It really ruined what could have been a really great vacation.

Very nice.

This home was so well maintained and equipped. The owners thought of everything a family would need and were super responsive to any questions. This rental gave our group plenty of privacy and lots of activities. The convenient location gave us easy access to the beach, town, and groceries.

This house was perfect for our family vacation. We had an age range of 20 to 90 years old and this house had everything we could ever want. Our parents enjoyed the master suite and loved the 2 outdoor patios. The young people loved the 2 minute walk to the beach, the outdoor fire pit, the garage/ping pong table and games, as well as the bikes. And as a family we all loved cooking together and gathering in the kitchen for our meals. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the pots, pans, utensils, etc that you could possibly need. The house was modern and extremely clean. The owner was very responsive to all of my questions and responded back to me within minutes. We made several trips into town which was a quick 5 minute drive. I highly recommend this home. We had an amazing week!!

Our family had a wonderful time at your property! Loved the bikes, wagon and games. So easy to get to the beach and town. We will be back!

We all had a great time. My daughter and son and their sposes, and my 9 and 7 year old grandkids did not want to leave. The owners thought of everything to make it safe , clean and beyond comfortable. They had all kind of things for us to do at the house which we took advantage of since 3 of our 4 days there , unfortunately, were rainy. They even had a crib there for my 4 month old granddaughter!! I would stay there again and again if I could! I highly recommend staying there when you visit South Haven!!

We had a great stay at the property. It had everything we needed and the house was like new. Loved the location too. Short walk to a quiet beach and short bike ride into town.

I stayed at this property for a girls trip with 12 women and it was absolutely perfect! Check-in was a breeze, with the door code very easy to use; the premises were spotless, decorated beautifully and had updated appliances! The property is a <5min walk from the beach, where we went and saw fireworks, and has many lovely outdoor spaces to enjoy the summer, including a gas gril!! Hosts were very responsive. Would definitely stay again!

This house had everything we could ever want or need for a weekend away. Extremely clean, clearly every inch of the house has been touched in a remodel at some point and it was the perfect set up for our friends trip. The gas stove was awesome, there were so many places to sit and hang out we didn’t even use them all. The garage with the ping pong table and arcade games was a very nice touch, they had chairs for the beach and bikes to ride to town if needed. Highly recommend this house! Location was perfect, the walk to the beach access point was across the small street and 3 houses down! Absolutely the best VRBO experience we’ve had.

This place is a gem! The hosts went above and beyond and even decorated the home with a light up tree and Christmas lights! We had such an amazing time in this cute town and were incredibly comfortable in the beautiful home. We loved that our teenagers could hang out in the basement and play ping-pong in the garage while the adults could enjoy some time in the living room around the fireplace. From the firepit with provided firewood to the luxurious soaking tub, we couldn't have been happier with our stay.
We highly recommend the Modern Beach Retreat and will be coming again next year :)
