Summer is in full swing at the HollyWoods. Check out the brand new pics of the landscaping, new pergola and brand new interior shots. There also are some pics from our 2024 summer guests and their “catches” from the pond. Book a midweek short stay with us this summer, we still have some dates open. We also have weekends open for the fall foliage. Whether it’s you and your family, or you and your friends, we have a place that was designed to relax and recharge. This craftsman bungalow has all the modern amenities, but with a homey nod to the past. A long, winding driveway leads you through the woods to the house, which overlooks a pond for fishing, a grassy field for lawn games, and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows under the stars. Inside, an open floor plan lets you all be together while comfy bedrooms and an additional sitting room allow for downtime. In cooler months, hunker down by the wood-burning fireplace. Step outside to enjoy covered porches, a screened-in dining porch, grilling terrace, pergola, another fire pit, outdoor shower and walking trails. Consider a quiet fall foliage weekend or spending the holidays in the woods. Thanksgiving is always very popular. We have also had guests for Christmas and New Year. Whether you bike, hike, swim, kayak, shop, antique, dine, gamble, golf, or just relax in the hammock, there’s always something to do in South Haven, MI. As a matter of fact, in April 2022, Cosmopolitan Magazine voted South Haven one of its top 30 American small towns, perfect for your next getaway. The only other Midwest area making this list is in the northern boundary waters of Minnesota. Also, the beaches of SW Michigan are ranked top in the country. Like other guests who’ve found us, we’re sure you’ll want to return again and again. The House: The main floor of the house is an open floor plan with the gourmet kitchen, dining room with large farmhouse table, and a living with a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, granite and walnut countertops, large pantry, and a screened outdoor dining porch. Other outdoor porches have rockers, upholstered furniture, and ceiling fans. The main floor primary suite includes a full bath with large shower, washer/dryer, king size bed and french doors leading outside. The second floor has 2 bedrooms, one with a queen sized bed and the other with two twin beds. Also upstairs is a sitting room with a pull-out sofa and doors that lead out to a balcony. The second floor has a full bathroom with tub/shower.The house has all of the comforts of home, central air, wood burning fireplace, large-screen/satellite TV, Blu-ray player, DVD/CD player, and audio system with speakers throughout the inside and outside of the house. The house is secured with an alarm system. The Land: This charming cottage, nestled in the woods of Michigan, is named for the various species of holly bushes grown on site. As you enter the private 20 acres, you are greeted by a park-like area, with flower beds and tree specimens. This area also features a fruit orchard, containing apples, peaches, and pears. The gravel driveway leads you through this open area into the woods, winding down a tree lined drive to the house, set back in the woods near the creek and stone's throw from the large fishing pond. Walking trails radiate out from the house and circle the property. Tucked away in the woods is a third fire pit, which is in the center of an area of campsites carved from the woods. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - CD player - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Terrace ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Ceiling fan - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Gravel flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: Smoking allowed away from house, no littering. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a hospital - Near the marina - On a lake ### Things to do - Boat - Gym - Kayak - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Ice skating nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Property located in a resort - Unit size: 1,800 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/80000000/79660000/79656600/79656535/faa4eeae.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Unwind in Riverfront Comfort — Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Boat Slip, Kayaks South Haven - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 152 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-19&endDate=2025-11-20&selected=79656535&PinnedHotelID=79656535&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87340000/87335900/87335825/5d2ab9ea.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Secluded Log Cabin with trail to North Point County Park to the beach.

The pond was full of fish big and small, the house has everything you could possibly need. We did a jigsaw puzzle on the screened porch and watched a thunderstorm in the rocking chairs on the front porch. It is a beautiful, peaceful and private property. The landscaping is perfect and the paths through the woods are so special. We would love to come back here again. ♥️ ##### Nancy D.

This property exceeded our expectations in every way. Four sisters enjoyed a perfect autumn week with their mom to celebrate her 80th birthday. It was so hard to leave the comfort of this lovely home and outdoor setting. But we couldn't resist its close proximity to Van Buren state park's beautiful beach, a trip to Holland to explore our ancestry, and a thrilling sand dune ride along with shopping in Saugatuck. Thank you Jim and Kyle for providing memories that will last a lifetime. Hope to return again. ##### Marjorie E.

Thank you very much for having us at the HollyWood's again! It was very relaxing and enjoyable. We love escaping the city hustle and bustle, and retreating to the HollyWoods was exactly what we needed. The day trips to Saugatuck and South Haven were delightful, but being able to return to a cozy and beautiful home was amazing! Our 6 year old niece Olivia wanted to thank you Jim for the additional input on activities for kids. She really enjoyed the “kids corner”, the beaches, pony ride, and the state parks. Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us and our Rhodesian Ridgebacks (they really love traveling with us and enjoyed the HollyWoods property!). Our family agreed that we need to make coming to the HollyWoods an annual thing! ##### Lisa M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin A. Sep 1, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Perfect Vacation The Hollywoods is exactly as described and depicted in the listing. FABULOUS. We had a great stay with our two boys (9 and 10-year olds). The home is immaculate. The hiking trails are beautiful (and on the property!). We caught some picture-worthy fish in the pond and cooked great dinners in the beautiful indoor and outdoor kitchen areas. Driving down the winding driveway, you begin to relax even before you get to the beautiful home with multiple sitting areas, outdoor firepits (yes, plural), and an amazing nighttime view of the stars. The landscape architecture is perfect, and it reveals the beauty of the plants, trees and shrubs (a mix of unique and ubiquitous). We will return--perhaps in the fall when the woods will be at their brightest, or perhaps in the winter (the fireplace looks cozy). But a vacation at this property in the summer is....well, perfect. ##### Kristin A.

We stayed here for a quick weekend away with another couple from Chicago. Everything about this property will blow you away. We were there for a snow storm and still had a blast. The house and kitchen are equipped far better than any other place I have stayed in. The floor plan is perfect for two separate families or couples to have their own space. The bedding on all beds was comfortable and cozy. The fireplace was delightful in the living room. The downstairs living area is perfect and open for great conversations and hanging out. We were able to hike around some of the trails in the snow, and it truly is a little secluded gem...we felt like we were the only ones out there in the woods. We hope to be back when the weather is nicer to enjoy the property again. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! It was extremely clean and well taken care of, you could tell the owners truly treasure their home. Hope you are able to enjoy it as much as we did! We didn't want to leave! ##### carter g. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bret W. Jul 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Excellent ##### Bret W.

Many acres of exquisite landscaping combined with natural woods, interior of property is beautifully designed and decorated, owners are wonderful.

Sep 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 4.5 out of 5, but GREAT property My wife and two Bernese Mountain Dogs spent a wonderful weekend on this idyllic property. The home was comfortable and clean and had probably the best-appointed kitchen we have experienced. The plates, cups, glasses--everything was high-quality, abundant and matched (which is not always the case). Copious amounts of cooking utensils, pots, pans, etc. complimented the excellent kitchen equipment including a very large and enjoyable-to-use outdoor grill. However, some items to keep in mind when visiting. The kitchen does not come with ANY food or spice items. We have stayed in many homes, and this is the first time there were not some basics included--any oils, condiments, spices, etc. We did not even find a salt and pepper shaker. We cook a lot when traveling, so it was a bit of a scramble at first, but it was not a weekend-killer. Still, if you do a fair amount of cooking, be sure to bring everything you might need. The grounds were absolutely amazing--access to 40 acres of beautiful outdoor space, a wonderful firepit, lots of available wood, and we kept waiting to pass a Hobbit on his way to the Shire on the many moss-covered trails. Our dogs truly enjoyed the outdoor space as well and being outside on the property was a real highlight. The only draw-back for us was that this was the second home that was equipped with a "Smart Thermostat" which meant that we were somewhat at the mercy of the pre-set cooling programming, and the temperature would not set below 70 degrees. We are a bit more "heat sensitive" than most, we have learned, so for the vast majority of visitors, this would never be an issue. However, if you are like us in that you generally are comfortable at 65 and lower, it might be a challenge for you. The nights were cooler, but the house did not quite reach our usual temperature. But again, that is likely more a reflection on us than the home, and in the cooler months, this would definitely qualify as a top-of-the-list option. The landlord, Jim, could not have been nicer, and you can tell that he is very proud of the space he has created. A lot of time and care went into the landscaping, and it just added to the experience. He was also very accommodating when we asked for a later checkout. Definitely worth your consideration. ##### Paul D.

I love to fish, so the pond was what really sold it for me. The house was absolutely beautiful inside, but to be honest, we spent the majority of our time outside. The location was perfect, country, but 5-10 minutes from everything. Next time we will bring our kiddos. There is a huge large mouth in that pond that I had the pleasure of hooking but he got off….I’ll be back, hahaha. James was great! Super friendly! ##### Laura B.

Owner was easy to work with. The only small issue was a few days a neighbor was doing a lot gun fire. So had to listen to that for a while. We would go back. ##### Joe S.

The attention to details inside the house made our stay easy and comfortable. It was a joy cooking in the kitchen and we all slept well on the comfy beds. We especially enjoyed all the ways to enjoy the great outdoors…from hiking the grounds to sitting by the pond, under the pergola or around the firepit. We highly recommend this wonderful property and hope to visit again soon. ##### Wendee S.
