This is one of the best vacations we have ever had. We have always loved coming to the South Haven area, but this property took it to the next level. Amazing house with perfect accommodations to make you feel at home. The private beach was a short walk. It is the best beach in the area we have come across. Not busy; perfect sand; mixed of days with bigger and smaller waves. We could not have been happier. Would love to come back again someday.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home. Linda was wonderful to communicate with. We felt right at home and had everything we could possibly need. Linda was very responsive with my questions in the moment. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed checking out South Haven. We found their info/photo book very helpful. We would love to stay here again sometime !

My family and I needed to get out and have some time away from home after the shutdown from the Covid outbreak. We needed a safe place away from crowds and a home that would fit all 12 of us. Linda's house fit all of our needs and more! The house was big enough that we never felt like we were on top of each other. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Linda's house is very well stocked with towels, sheets, pots, pans, entertainment, beach toys/rafts. She even included age appropriate toys for the kids. They had everything we could possibly need which helped a lot with trying to avoid grocery stores. Linda even included clorax wipes, masks, etc. to help us feel safe. My family loved the backyard, which was bug free! We ate dinner out there every night. The beach was a short walk from the house. Lake Michigan is at a high water level but we still had plenty of space for our family of 12 on the sand. The huge water mat was our favorite activity on the water and we are so glad that Linda has that available for guests. My only couple of suggestions would be to have a cutting board available for guests. We were cutting fruits and vegetables on cardboard to not dent the countertops. Also, the house has a lot of decor/heirlooms in it. It would be hard to baby proof the home if a young child likes to grab at things. All in all, we are so happy we chose a place with private beach access instead of downtown South Haven. We hope to come back!
