GORGEOUS Remodeled South Beach Cottage - 2 blocks from the shore!

Step into our sunny-bright beach cottage with a farmhouse flare that will make you feel so welcome and cozy you won't want to leave! You will feel pampered by the personal touches and extras that come with your stay at this vacation home. Fetch some morning brew from our coffee bar and enjoy the morning peace nestled in the rockers on the front porch. Enjoy some family fun in the sun and sand followed with a home-cooked meal in the kitchen (or outdoor grill) full of all new appliances to meet all of your cooking needs. Enjoy your meal at the kitchen bar or at the dining room table amidst the warm glow of the fireplace. There are 2 TV areas for together cuddles or winding down family time. This home carries a small footprint, but feels incredibly roomy with high ceilings and open floor plan. Despite breeching 100 years, everything in this home is BRAND NEW!
Family games, toys and puzzles are great for inside fun, while outdoor pleasure is just around the block at Kids Corner and hiking/biking trails are down the street (Van Buren Trail) or across town (Kal Haven Trail). There's bike, moped and gulf cart rentals in the area to help you get around. Boat and jetski rentals can bring summer water fun.
Children will love the custom-made bunk experience (very fort-like) that has 2 twin beds above 2 full beds.
Downstairs bedroom has en suite full bathroom with tub/shower, glass enclosed. Upstairs full bathroom offers a walk-in shower, glass enclosed.
For your convenience a brand new washer/dryer is ready to assist!
The beach is two blocks away and festivities, restaurants, shops and winter ice rink are all in walking distance as well (6 blocks). Be sure to check out South Haven's calendar of festivals and events to enhance your time here. Evening ice-cream runs are a must! The harbor is also in walking distance (about 5 blocks) and offers a kids splash & play, live music, benches and grills or just pull up a yard chair and watch the boats go by. Small dogs under 20 lbs welcome with a $200 fee.

The cleanest rental you’ll ever stay in

Andy and Daniall are excellent hosts! Their home is well-stocked with everything you could need on visit. The house is so clean! We’ve stayed in many rentals over the years, but none have ever wowed with cleanliness. This one is spotless!! The location is great, too. South Haven is a treasure and we hope to be back again.

It was almost perfect

The house was very nice and nicely updated. Really, the only problem we had was that we didn’t get to enjoy the expected length of stay. We had an agreement for a late check out which the owner then rescinded after it was too late for us to cancel. It was agreed for us to have the late check out to accommodate a special needs individual. I followed up to make sure this was agreed upon and I was reassured. I was appreciative that they were being understanding. But, when the opportunity arose for them to rent the house for our check out day,they rented it, thus breaking their word and telling us to vacate earlier. It made the entire check-out day schedule chaotic and dampened our stay, and we had to cancel our trip into town and proceed home.

Every detail thought of

Totally wowed. Our family of 4 with two small children (and our doodle, Beau) stayed in the cottage for Thanksgiving weekend and were so delighted by all the cute details, high end finishes and a level of cleanliness that I have never seen in a short term rental. Every surface was sparkling clean including the floors, the linens and everything in between. High end touches like nice blow dryers, little soaps, enough dishes and pans to actually cook. Thank you to Andy and Daniall for being responsive and kind hosts and putting so much care into your cottage. We can’t wait to visit another time.

Out stay at this coastal cottage in South Haven, MI, was nothing short of magical! The property is beautifully maintained, blending modern amenities with charming, beach decor that instantly made us feel at home. The host’s attention to detail, from the fully stocked kitchen to the thoughtful local recommendations, made our experience seamless and unforgettable. Can’t wait to return!

Great place to stay

We’ve had great luck with Michigan and South Haven did not disappoint! The property was clean and cozy- my kids LOVED the upstairs loft with bunk beds, their own television and bathroom. They didn’t want to leave! The hosts were responsive and had plenty of toiletries and extras on hand for us. It’s a great location. We walked to the beach everyday. The street was nice and quiet. The only downside was how uncomfortable the primary bed was.

Loved our time here!

The house was super cute and had plenty of room for our family of 7, 4 adults, 2 teens, and a toddler! We were able to walk to everything, the shops, restaurants, and the beach without any issues! The street that it’s on is super cute and seems very safe! There were people walking everywhere, just seems like a cute little beach town! It was our first time visiting Michigan and we will definitely be back and hopefully be able to rent this same house!

Clean, cute cottage 2 blocks from beach

The place was exactly as expected from the listing. Nicely updated with plenty of beds and space. Very clean. Appropriate walking distance to the beach (2 blocks) and 1 block to the kids corner playground which was perfect for us and our 3 kids. The only thing I wish this place had a private outdoor space to grill and hangout. Not many rental owners leave you a welcome card and gift along with cute soaps and sunscreen! That was a lovely surprise. I recommend this place to anyone and would definitely stay here again. We love visiting South Haven!

Beautiful Home. Perfect Location.

Our stay was wonderful. This house is beautifully decorated, clean, well thought out and perfect for our family. While we spent a lot of time together in this home playing games, watching the Olympics, having drinks on the porch, grilling out and enjoying the fire pit, it was also a perfect layout for us to retreat to our own space when needed. The kids took over the upstairs (bedroom, bunk, TV area and bathroom) and my husband and I the downstairs. This home is also in a great location. So close to the beach and Kids Corner and a nice walk to downtown. We've rented in South Haven for many years, and this rental is one of our favorites! Looking forward to coming back. Thanks for being great hosts Andy and Daniall.
