Conveniently located in the heart of downtown South Haven, only two blocks from Dyckman Beach and just a couple more from both North and South Beaches. South Haven's most popular attractions are all within a 5-minute walk.

Endless entertainment options both day and night, and this condo puts you right in the middle of all of it!

Fire up the grill and enjoy dinner on the huge two-tiered deck overlooking the channel and watch the boats come in and out while you eat. Also has access to drop in your canoe or kayak!

Park your car (for free!) and walk anywhere you need to go!

Great getaway!
We loved the location and the condo itself, this is the third different condo we have stayed at in this building. Location was wonderful but we were disappointed in the cleanliness of the condo. Dust under the couch and the appliances in the kitchen had a layer of dust on them.

Great stay!
The apartment is nice and close to everything. Great beach nearby. People who don’t like noise may not like being near the draw bridge that goes up every half hour, or being near a bar, but we slept ok through the noise.

Location is great - unit not
Location is great. We love South Haven. This unit however was very dusty and the bed is only a full size. Will not rent this unit again but look for another in this property.

Great location but read the fine print (that you get after you can’t get a refund anyway)
Clean little apartment with beautiful wood floors overlooking the drawbridge. It says they have a Keurig machine, but they do not include any pods so there actually wasn’t any way to make coffee. This listing does not mention that, but the email you later get right before check-in and well after the time of getting any refund does say that. When we arrived, I did not have the exterior door combination, which I later found under the management company email drop-down category “miscellaneous/other.” That code to get in wasn’t in the welcoming text, and when I called the management company, the first person could not help me and had to pass me onto someone who was able to tell me the code so we could get in. The pull out bed is a nice queen-size, but this listing does not mention that the mattress needs to be inflated, and there is no inflator. (when I asked about finding that I got the management company response “I have no idea”). So you end up sleeping on a mattress that is even thinner than the usual pull out couch mattress and not very comfortable. I had been assured there was a grill with gas available, but there was no grill in sight anywhere around the patio areas. By that time I did not feel like asking the management company any more questions. Overall, this is a nice place with exactly what you would expect given the location, but there is a large management company fee given the service and some missing things that I did not expect from reading this listing.

Super Clean & Great Location
We had no idea this unassuming building would be so amazing inside. The wood floors, bathroom, kitchen were spotless. The kitchen package with a clean sponge was a nice touch. The view and sunlight! We loved it and hope to come back.

Great anniversary getaway
My wife and I enjoyed a 2-night getaway at this downtown Grand Havin studio condo. Fanastic location! I enjoyed watching the drawbridge open on the half-hours. And downtown shopping is only a few blocks away, hiking trails half-mile away. Condo was very clean, comfortable and well furnished. (The bed is mattress only, no box spring, and strangely short in length, I'm 5'9" tall. Could have been more comfortable, but slept OK.)
