Enjoy the perfect combination of luxury, comfort, and flexibility in this beautifully appointed two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage. Designed with an inviting open-concept layout, the spacious living, dining, and kitchen areas provide the perfect setting for gathering with family and friends after a day spent making memories along the shores of Lake Michigan.

The primary bedroom features a comfortable queen-size bed with a private ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom is ideal for families, offering twin bunk beds and an additional twin bed. A queen-size sleeper sofa in the living room provides additional sleeping accommodations, allowing the cottage to comfortably sleep up to seven guests.

One of this cottage's most unique features is its ability to adjoin with neighboring Cottage 8A, another luxurious two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage. Together, the two cottages create an exceptional four-bedroom, four-bathroom retreat, making them an ideal choice for extended families, reunions, or groups traveling together who appreciate both shared gathering space and the privacy of separate accommodations.

Spend your days relaxing on the expansive private beach, taking a refreshing swim in the Olympic-sized heated pool, or enjoying a friendly match on the tennis or pickleball courts. Beautifully maintained grounds, children's activities, and unforgettable Lake Michigan sunsets create the perfect backdrop for a vacation filled with relaxation, recreation, and lasting memories.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the location was wonderful and the grounds were very pretty. Unfortunately the door connecting our unit to another unit was broken and wouldnt lock, but it was fixed for us on the 2nd day of our stay. I really really didnt like having open access to our room over night though. Wifi did not work for the entire stay and pool schedule and rules changed daily without notice based on the friendliness of the lifeguard. The unit was very nice with the exception of missing cabinet doors and broken mirrors, but they give a lovely welcome gift and all the appliances are new and nice. Location was wonderful and loved the access to the beach.

Girls weekend with Mom & Sisters

Spent the weekend in South Haven with mom and two sisters and we stayed in Cottage 8B. Everything was wonderful and just as described. Clean/ updated bathrooms and kitchen and not pictured was an oversized dining table and couch/ chairs in the living room with the fireplace. The weather ended up being spectacular so we took advantage of both porches (front & back) to enjoy our coffee and wine and were even able to get down to the beach one afternoon. Beach access could not have been easier or more convenient. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and will be coming back...planning on walking the beach right into town!

Pool is not open

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Despite all the photos of a gorgeous pool - it is not open and available due to staffing issues, so that was a big disappointment for my daughter. The house itself is perfect, very clean, well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. There’s a beautiful beach and other amenities, like tennis and basketball courts. I would stay here again, but website needs to reflect the pool issue. Not really fair to people who book for that reason.

First family vacation at sleepy hollow resort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in cottage 8B and had a great time with our 2 kids, 4 years old and 1 year old! The cottage was very clean, comfortable and spacious for our family of 4. Kitchen was fully stocked, we cooked /grilled all our meals in the cottage. The amenities at the resort were perfect for the kids, heated pool, kiddie pool, park, yard games . We visited the beach on the resort property, however it is almost non existent due to the water level but there are many public beaches nearby. The staff did advise us ahead of time about the beach so we weren't disappointed. We will definitely be back for future family vacations!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sleepy Hollow is a charming enclave on the shore of Lake Michigan. Many in our group had never stayed there before and were completely charmed. Each the 3 units we rented had it's own well pulled together vibe and was well appointed. The grounds are lovely and it is a nice walk into town. Will definitely be back!

Cottage 8B Annual Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love coming to Sleepy Hollow - it’s secluded, almost all-inclusive and nearby shopping, great food and entertainment. Our extended family rents 6+ cottages and we enjoy hanging out together. Special memories that we have enjoyed for years. That said, we are disappointed that the lake has overtaken the beach, and feel that the rental cost is no longer equitable with limited amenities. (No volleyball, evening fire pits, walks along the beach, etc.) We will likely return to Sleepy Hollow, yet no longer on an annual basis.
