About this house rental
INSIDE THE VACATION RENTAL
This 2-and-a-half story Chalet will charm you with its soaring ceilings, 3 tier open layout, and stunning view of the lake.
On the main floor, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen, dining, and living room centered around an island counter. Dine on the expandable dining table or on the deck; both tables seat up to eight. On the lower level of the deck, a gas grill and lounge furniture look over the bank (perfect for a sunset barbecue!). The entire house has a UV Air purifying system installed which kills at least 95% of the air-born viruses.
The main floor bedroom comes with a Queen bed, remote control ceiling fan/light, and views of the lake over the deck. Across the hall, the bathroom includes a washer/dryer. Upstairs a playful loft overlooks the great room below. There are two twin beds in the loft, a queen bed in the 2nd story bedroom, and a half bath. Climb up the ladder and find the attic loft in the ceiling's peak, a delight for kids and board-gamers alike. A new emergency generator makes sure that power outages don't impact one's stay, and the Internet is provided by a new fiber optic cable. The smart TV interfaces with the new Internet service.

Loft level bedroom — Queen (2)
Living room sofa bed — Queen (2)
OUTDOOR SPACE
Parking: There is space provided for up to 2 cars in the driveway. Unload in any weather parked adjacent to the covered entrance area.
On the way to the beach, a swing set offers a swing and gymnastics bar.
Follow the stairs from the deck all the way down the bank to the private beach - seating and storage on landings along the way.
The ebb and flow of the lake are always changing the beach and fragile bank. The private beach is usually between 30-50' feet wide, boasting soft white sand and a gently sloping sandy lake bottom. Enjoy a walk in either direction along the waters' edge right of way.
THE LOCATION
Nestled atop a wooded dune on a private gated drive, this stunning Chalet replaces the family's small 1950's cottage. Located 10 miles north of Benton Harbor and 10 miles south of South Haven along the lakeshore, this secluded getaway offers easy access to the region's attractions and a remote locale that never fails to transport its denizens further than any road ever could.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Perched atop a woodsy sand dune, we had endless views of the lake and a private beach to enjoy with our family and dogs. The chalet was very clean and manicured. Loved the wood features everywhere to make you feel like you’re in nature. You are very much in the woods so expect bugs on the trip to and from the beach but the house itself was clear, the appliances seemed brand new (props to the cleaning crew) and a storm knocked out the power twice but the backup generator immediately popped on that we didn’t even notice. Overall, a great family getaway, especially if you want to get away from it all.

The Chalet is SO clean and comfortable. Check-in and out were easy. Jaqua Realtors were easy to deal with and any questions we had were immediately answered.
The view of Lake Michigan was amazing and, oh my, those sunsets from the beach - wow! This home was beautiful and big enough for me, the hubby, and our pup. It was nicely appointed with dishes, pots & pans, etc. Nice deck area. We spent a little time on the private beach. Put our toes in Lake Michigan which is so clear and beautiful here. This home is convenient to South Haven, Saugatuck, and Holland. We had a blast exploring Warren Dunes, Saugatuck Dunes, and Indiana Dunes National Park. Oh and it's close to local wineries. This chalet is a gem!! We would love to come back and stay here again in the future!

6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
The location and proximity to the lake beach were awesome. The house is becoming dated, not ideal for two couples because the second bedroom is up a very steep set of stairs, and only has a half-bath upstairs. The bedrooms are small. The main "great room" is small and open to the loft upstairs that has two beds - not exactly private. The furniture is dated and kitchen with average stock. No dishwasher. The check-in, communication from the management company and access to the property was great. In my opinion, this property is best suited for a small family with young children seeking a beach house experience, with less comfort.We enjoyed the beach, the peace and quiet and our time on the deck. The view of the sunset through the trees is great, but we had to wash the windows.
