Beautiful, awesome cabin

Black bear lodge exceeded our expectations! A lovely, well-maintained space that was impeccably decorated with so many fun games and activities. We roasted marshmallows in the fire pit, thoroughly enjoyed the game room foosball table and wi games. Coffee was provided for peaceful mornings on the wrap-around porch, and we had all the things we needed to cook and grill meals at the house. We can’t say enough good things about our week there. We will definitely be booking again!

Due to the positive, enjoyable stay from a previous trip, we returned again to this property. It did not disappoint, and my entire family really enjoys the thoughtful and welcoming accommodations included. One of the favorites out of all the VRBO listings I've used.

Just beautiful!

Excellent property! The house was fantastic. Plenty of space inside and out for both adults and kids to use and the home itself was gorgeous. The kitchen was one of the nicest and well stocked I’ve experienced in a rental. Beds were comfy and between the basement, living room, and wrap around porch there was plenty of sitting space for everyone. Hot tub was great in the evening and the dining room table had plenty of space for a family dinner for eight. Everyone wants to come back next year. Downtown South Haven and South Beach are perfectly convenient for a family vacation without having to stay in town and this property is on a 4 acre wooded lot with very little traffic so you never worry about the kids running around in the yard. I cannot recommend this property enough.

Memorable family stay

The main highlight was the absolutely stunning and serene surroundings. It was so lovely to step outside into our very own private park. Indoors, we were met with tasteful lodge decor and everything we needed for our trip: well equipped kitchen, plenty of space for our group of 7 to spread out, and so many options for activities/games/entertainment. The short drive into South Haven was perfect. We would return in a heartbeat! Many thanks to Nina for everything she has provided to make her guests feel at home!

We Return Often!

We absolutely love staying at Black Bear Lodge in South Haven! It’s a nice getaway for our family to relax, unwind, and get a break from electronics and the busyness of life. We have 5 children ranging in age from 8 to 15, and they love our stays there and really look forward to them! The hot tub is amazing, the views are spectacular, and the beds and couches are very comfortable and cozy. We love that stores and restaurants are close, and the beach is nearby if you need something extra to do in the warmer months. They have fiber internet so you can easily work from there or enjoy shows or video games for the kids too. We had great cellphone service in the house. We highly recommend the cabin to others, it’s one of our favorite stays!

Relaxing Family Get away

We loved staying at this Home! Our kids had plenty of things to do in the game area, hot tub, and enjoying the outdoors. Cabin was spacious! Nice area on the porch to sit and enjoy being outdoors. Beautiful sounds of nature! Would defined stay again. Provided shampoo and conditioner. Also provided spices and coffee. Nice place to stay! 5 beds and 3 bedrooms plus a bathroom on each level.

The BEST Family Getaway!

Nina’s cabin is amazing! Immaculately clean, thoughtfully supplied with items you need for a wonderful stay, and so cozy! Our 5 kids absolutely loved the play areas downstairs, the arcade machine, and most importantly the hot tub! Even in freezing temps it was so easy to enjoy the delightful hot tub and walk up the stairs back into the cabin! The beds and pillows were so comfortable and the bedding was cozy. The rooms were so spacious! We greatly appreciated the on-site laundry and the wonderful whirlpool tub! She was also so quick to respond when I mixed up our door code and needed help. This is definitely our favorite vacation rental and we can’t wait to go back! Thank you Nina for creating such a cozy and wonderful vacation spot!

Wonderful Accommodating Place!

We had a fabulous time at the Black Bear Cabin! It was everything we hoped for......clean, very well provisioned with plenty of space for everyone. The game room downstairs (where 'Every' game worked!), as well as the nice hot tub, were big hits with my two granddaughters! The host (Nina) was very good at communicating and responding, and she was very helpful with anything we needed! We will definitely visit the Black Bear Lodge in South Haven, MI again!! 👍🏼👍🏼
