After a day of discovering all that South Haven has to offer, come home to our warm and inviting retreat.

There’s no shortage of ways to relax and have fun together in this spacious home.

​​​​​​​Perfectly suited for families of all sizes, Hounds on Hazel features two peaceful Queen Suites upstairs for some restful downtime, and two cheerful Kid’s Suites with twin-over-full bunk beds and trundles—perfect for the little ones to rest after a day of adventure. Downstairs, there’s another cozy Queen Suite next to the game room, giving everyone their own special space. And for a touch of indulgence, the Master Queen Suite upstairs offers a jacuzzi tub, perfect for soaking away your cares after a long day on the lakeshore.

From movie marathons in the in-house theater to lively ping pong tournaments in the game room, there’s something for everyone at Hounds on Hazel. Kids Corner Park is just a short stroll away, offering endless opportunities for outdoor fun, while the Blue Stairs Beach is a quick walk for those sun-soaked beach days.

Great location
We enjoyed our stay at Adam's property. It was a perfect location. We enjoy walking to the blue stairs, Kid's Corner, beach, and downtown area. This home accommodated our large extended family. Plenty of bedrooms and baths.

Beautiful home. Everything for a nice stay. Comfortable and quiet. Tried to get a late checkout because we have infant twins. Preferred an 11 a m checkout vs. 10.
