We had a wonderful stay! The home has such a fun mid-century modern vibe, and it was obvious that every detail was thoughtfully considered. It was incredibly well-stocked with plenty of towels, blankets, and everything we needed in the kitchen, making our stay feel comfortable and effortless. The location couldn’t have been better. The beach was just a short walk away, and we also enjoyed being able to walk into town for restaurants, shopping, and nightlife. If you’re looking for a stylish, comfortable place in a fantastic location, this is it. We would absolutely stay here again!

This place is a gem that is both centrally located and very quiet - exactly what my SIL & I were looking for. Quick walk to a beautiful, meticulous beach and short drive to town, Saugatuck, and other great coastal beaches. The house had everything we needed, and the numerous small, thoughtful touches and vintage decorating put it over the top. Exactly as pictured, newly remodeled and clean as a whistle. We'd go back in a heartbeat!

The house was very nice! Everything is just like the pictures. The best part about this house is the location! It is only about 50-60 steps to reach the sand on North Beach in South Haven. It is also an extremely short walk down to the Black River walkway, from which you can walk out the pier on the North Beach side (non-lighthouse side) of the river. The little shed out back was great for storing all of our bikes. We will definitely book this place again sometime.
