Wonderful property! Easy access to the beach down the stairs. The beach was not crowded due to this area being private house and not large complexes. Plenty of things to do in South Haven if you like! Fully stock kitchen and great grill just outside the door. Love the sunsets! ##### Gregory S. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martha M. Sep 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Incredible location! While you can't see the lake well from the unit, the grounds were absolutely wonderful. A short walk around the main house and down a wood stairway, and there are you on the beach. There is a small but totally beautiful deck from which to view the sunset every night. The beach is lovely -- the sand perfect and the walk along the beach beautiful. A warning -- don't rent this unit if you are unsteady on your feet or require assistance walking. There were stairs up to the unit and many wooden stairs down to the beach which could be a touch slippery in the morning dew. But the reward! (Also if you are a foodie, bring your own knife.) Best vacation ever on Lake Michigan beaches for us. ##### Martha M. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Troy R. Aug 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for Our Purpose Just what we needed. Great location with a beautiful beach access just steps, 38 of them, from your door. Well maintained with plenty of privacy. Beach and deck on the lakeside of the property was perfect for morning walks and evening sunsets. ##### Troy R. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023
