Coloma getaway

We had a great time staying at this house. The pool, hot tub, large fire pit, and fenced in yard for the dogs made this a wonderful getaway! The house is surrounded by farm fields, making for a quiet and peaceful area, yet close enough to St. Joe and other beach towns. The owner is close by and responded promptly to any of our concerns or questions. It was a fun trip!

Great Weekend

Everything was wonderful! The backyard was so much fun, and we spent many hours in the pool. The hot tub had a few issues, but the owner helped us to fix it in a timely manner. The eggs, milk, coffee, and snacks were a special treat, and we enjoyed cooking in the kitchen. We look forward to coming back!

Super clean and easy to manage

We had a great stay. It's very pet friendly! There were so many surprising additional amenities you don't see at other rentals (extra kitchen gadgets, large hot tub, makeup towels, snacks, touch lamps, etc). It's super close to a bunch of cities so we could take pick lots of family activities.

This property was immaculate with every amenity you can think of, the host was attentive and helped us with little things. We were not familiar with weather was great. The pool was wonderful. We enjoyed the hot tub and just are all around. Stan would recommend this property. I do wish we would’ve had a little bit better Internet service.

Great stay!

We had an amazing stay at White Haven. The house was lovely. The pool was large and heated. The hot tub was certainly hot and beautiful. We traveled with 4 adults and 6 kids. Loved the yard and being near Hagar beach. The kids loved pinballs, games and toys. The snacks, milk and eggs were a sweet touch. Thank you

Great house

The house was spotless when we got in to start our family visit. It was great to have the larger house just down the driveway for the rest of our crew as well. Great and very responsive host and the house is well appointed. There is no central meeting place other than the large dining room table, but we spent most of our time in the larger house. Be prepared for the sulfur smell from the rural well water, but other than that the bathroom worked. It would have been great to have a bathroom downstairs as well, but we made it work. The mattresses could use an update, but the overall bedroom setup was great. We loved our stay!

Guy's Trip!

This house is awesome! The pool is huge and has a great deck so everyone can hang around and chill together. The hot tub was great and Eric even went out of his way to make sure it was ready for us before we got there! There were some snacks and a few other surprises waiting for us in the fridge which was awesome to come into. We also really appreciated the built-in that had plates, bowls, and cups ready for use so we didn't have to dig through cabinets trying to find stuff! There was also plenty of kitchen utensils, bowls, etc. which made it easy to cook for a large group. Location is perfect, close to the beach, close to South Haven, but still secluded so you don't have to worry about busy roads or tons of people. Eric is a great host who you can tell cares about this property and the guest's experience! I would just add, bring a couple of towels with you because they have some but not enough for showering and pool/hot tub dips.

Nice house - Intrusive stay

The house was lovely. Plenty of room, clean, the house was stocked with snacks, coffee pods, & more. The pool & hot tub were amazing. On the down side, the only tv took almost two hours to get connected in order to access apps like Netflix etc, & although the owner was quick to drop by to assist, the issue wasn't resolved by him. The owner was quick to drop by without notice on another occasion during our stay. Privacy of our group from the owner was a significant issue & is the reason for the low rating. We felt the host was incredibly intrusive, barging into the quiet fenced yard while we were having a bonfire meeting Saturday evening to put the patio umbrella down. Our group of 8 with an average age of 48 felt that a text asking us to put the umbrella down or at least a heads up would have been acceptable. We found it off putting as he came with no warning as he was staying next door. On check out day, he started mowing the front & back yard of our rental an hour & a half before we were supposed to leave which made it uncomfortable to finish off our stay in either the hot tub or pool. It gave the "time to wrap up" vibe. I understand he may have had to possibly leave town or make sure all his properties were ready for the next guests; however, we found it unacceptable. Our group have stayed at over 40 vacation rentals & none of us have ever been disturbed like this by a host. It was very off putting & we wouldn’t book with this host in the future for those reasons.

Everything was ready upon our arrival and all the extras were awesome. We loved our time, the backyard is an oasis of fun for everyone including our dog.
