It was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It was a 2-minute walk to Oak Beach, and about a 12-minute walk to North Beach. We spent most of our time at the beach and loved being so close. There were tons of beach toys and some boogie boards to use. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Jamie R D.

Not only were the owners responsive, but you could tell that they truly cared about our stay and experience. We brought our 3 dogs for this vacation and it was such a relief knowing they were safe but also very welcomed in the cottage. As most dog owners know, it’s difficult to find a place where your pets are welcomed and embraced, but there was no worries here! When we first arrived, the cleanliness was unmatched and there were amenities galore. We had everything we needed and more. The beds are comfortable, AC was functioning well, and the amount of beach toys were wonderful! All in all, if/when we ever return to South Haven, we already know where we’ll be staying. We cannot recommend enough! ##### Laura H.
