Easy walk to the beach, harbor and downtown, sleeps 6!

Easy walk to the beach, harbor and downtown!
Charming two-bedroom home with comfy sleeper couch (sleeps 6 total) overlooking the river and marina. You’ll wake to the sound of seagulls over the river and birds chirping in the woods while you enjoy your morning coffee on the screened-in porch. Walk to the beautiful public beach or stroll to the harbor and visit the new Maritime Museum. End the day with an evening walk into the charming town of South Haven for dinner, drinks, and a movie. The adjacent woods and large lot make it ideal for families, but the private location is perfect for a romantic getaway. The large master bedroom has a four-poster bed, and the full-size bathroom has a combo shower/tub. Plenty of closet space throughout. Delightful open floorplan with a breakfast bar and fully equipped kitchen to prepare the fish you caught on the North Beach pier!

Beautiful home and perfect location

the house is just fabulous - clean, spacious and amenities wonderful. The house is located close enough to downtown to walk, surrounded by park and beach. If you want to just relax the closed in porch is a great spot to kick back and read a book. Both Saugatuck and Holland are close 20-30 minute drive i travel with my large dog and it was perfect for him as well. Beautiful areas to walk your furry family members and he enjoyed the porch as well as the yard. Lisa the owner was most accommodating and responded immediately to any questions i had. i will certainly rent this property again!

Very nice Home - Great Location

The home was in a great location with a short walk to the beach and to restaurants and locations in Downtown South Haven. It was very quiet and close to city parks for exploring. Communication with the host was excellent. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in South Haven.
