Cleanest vrbo I have ever stayed in. Everything was perfect. Check in and getting in was so easy! Everything was spotless and just so charming. The location was also amazing being a less than 10 minute walk from the beach and town made for great connivence so we didn't have to drive at all! Would 10/10 stay here again.

Summer Getaway

This was a family summer vacation. This house is fantastic. Relatively new construction and close to all the areas to visit in South Haven. It is big enough to comfortably host more than one family. The owners were very helpful in making sure we had everything we needed for the stay

Good - not great

Nice place with plenty of space, nice location, helpful and kind owners that were very responsive. It was clean with some ‘extras’ for the beach in the garage. A few details were lacking - pot holders for the kitchen, beds and pillows were ok at best, comfort of the deck furniture were not not the best.

Great Spot in South Haven

The location of this vacation home can't be beat. Everything's within walking distance yet the neighborhood is very quiet. The home is designed with multiple comfortable gathering spaces and the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with many thoughtful touches. Strong WIFI signal. Communication with the host was great, and there was a detailed guidebook available in the home and online.

Such a beautiful house, and well designed. We loved all the storage, especially the back entry way and the big pantry. When you have a group of 12 women, all the bathrooms are a huge plus! The owners were fantastic to work with, and we love the quiet neighborhood. Easy walk to the beach and downtown.

Wonderful friends getaway!

What a beautiful house! This new home was even more beautiful in person and perfect for our 4-day stay in South Haven with friends. Cooler fall temps encouraged us to use the fire pit and hot tub, as well as the gas fireplace while we watched college football games. The house is situated just a few blocks to the beach and restaurants.

The Haven Haus has everything you need and more! Jessica paid attention to every detail with the toys/playroom/bunk beds for the kids and the extra toiletries in case you forget something. The communication was great and our check in request was accommodated. The house was very clean and we felt right at home with the welcome note and present. The location was perfect with just a quick walk to the beach, park and downtown South Haven. We’ll definitely be looking to come back next year!

A luxurious & easy getaway from Chicago

We really enjoyed our stay at Haven Haus this January! The house is gorgeous, well stocked, and in a lovely location. The kiddos in our group adored the bunk beds, the play space under the stairs, and the toys provided at the house. The owners were great to communicate with and check in was super easy. They even left us a lovely bag with snacks and a local card to welcome us to the home. We'll certainly be back!

Family Reunion

Our large extended family gathered in South Haven this summer for a family reunion. Part of the group stayed at another house, but our group, which included my 96 year old mother stayed in this home. This home is ideal in so many ways, but particularly for any group traveling with someone who has mobility issues. The first floor bedroom along with an attached bathroom, were perfect to accommodate my mom, who can’t walk a flight of stairs. The rest of the bedrooms were also a perfect layout for us. The home is new, clean, well stocked, and well furnished (note there is now even an additional couch in the main floor living room, which wasn’t originally shown in the photos). The driveway is more than ample to fit up to 3 cars. Additionally, we particularly appreciated having use of the garage to store our bikes and beach gear. Matt and Jessica were reachable and responsive, and even provided us with a number of suggestions of activities to do in South Haven. We have already booked this house for next year!!

Pristine property!

Everything in the house was new and immaculate!! Love how well they take care of the home to maintain its cleanliness! Bunk room was perfect for kids and teens in the group… short walk to town and beach:) Only thing I’d add and it’s simply due to preference of our group… and that’s bikes and beach chairs to borrow for week… pain to travel with and expensive to rent with a large group;) Loved our stay!
