She had every necessity for a beach vacation so we didn’t have to bring them ourselves (towels, chairs, floats etc...).

They loved the billiard table, fooseball table. swimming pool and table tennis. The beach was so close - and having chairs and a wagon to use made the beach days a no fuss day. The walk to town was easy; barely needed my car once we arrived. Hope to be back to the same property each year. The hose was beyond helpful and easy to work with. ##### MImma P.

We are from France, so it was such a kind thoughtful treat to have cheese & wine awaiting us. The location was PERFECT! My family & I took a 5 minute bikeride into downtown. There is a nearby locsl grocery store within a 5 minute walk. We walked 2 minutes to the beach to swim & watched a gorgeous sunset! We all enjoyed the heated pool and the countless hours of ping-pong. The rooftop above the pool house was perfect for sunbathing & beautiful views of Lake Michigan! The spiral staircase was really cool. My family & I have stayed at countless VRBO over the years. And this place by far is our top two picks. Outstanding job Martha! We will definitely be back with family & friends. ##### Balbina M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jordan S. Sep 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Attention to Detail in the Perfect Location This property sets very high expectations... then meets them! Communication and availability is A+. No, I don't mean above average. I mean phenomenal, gold standard stuff. Attentiveness, welcoming, and privacy all on the nose for what we look for and appreciate. The house was exactly as advertised. Soft sheets, clean couches, fresh air... the cleanliness and amenities left nothing standing in the way of comfort and vacation. When a spouse's biggest complaint about a trip is wanting a couple fewer steps between the kitchen and the dining table, you know it was a good trip. In hindsight, we should have unpacked better and used the laundry room (especially the dryer) a bit more. We appreciated that the place was crawler-friendly (sorry, we couldn't remember where that decorative pitcher was originally!), with tons of thoughtfulness for kids - bikes, toys, a stool, and more were ready for action. So cool. For people wanting a pool and a beach, I don't think that there's a better location in South Haven. We feel very fortunate that the cottage that best fit our needs was available. This listing stands out and was worth it. Thanks, Marta! ##### Jordan S.

We stayed with our 22 month old and family for a long weekend. Marta had taken care to put out many toys and bikes for our daughter to enjoy. From beach towels and pool toys to a little toy rollercoaster, our daughter was in heaven! Our pack n play fit comfortable in the bedroom. Can't say enough good things about this rental. This was our second time staying, and we will be back! ##### Jillian T.

Mar 26, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing getaway! I have stayed at a number of vacation rentals, and I must say, Marta’s place tops the list. This was such a homey, cozy cottage! There was something for everyone. Books, games, pool and foosball tables…a little bit of fun for all ages and tastes. I didn’t use the pool area-but what a nice set up! Marta was so easy to work with and so responsive to every need. She included so many little extra touches. I appreciated the luggage wagon by the parking lot. Since I was by myself, I was able to make one trip with all my luggage. There were lots of little local treats she left as a welcome. I would highly recommend this cottage…and anything else Marta rents out!! It was just the restful trip I needed! I look forward to visiting again! ##### Sharon R.

The cottage is very nice, and everything was very well taken care of to make our stay easy and relaxing. ##### Nate A. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mary t.

He’s a tall guy and sometimes beds and furnishings get a thumbs down. When he announced that Marta’s cottage was the best I’ve ever selected, not only was I relieved but hopeful that return visits are in our future. The cottage, the property and the treats that greeted us made for a very nice getaway. Five stars on everything!! Except the weather! ##### mary t.
