This met every need of all my family. I have 4 adult children and 3 with young children
Perfect mini getaway. The house had everything we needed. Great location, quick drive to downtown South Haven. Perfect for families, game room and planet of space. Great communication with the host. Kids loved the indoor pool and golf cart. Probably the best rental we’ve stayed at.
The house was clean, plenty of towels, pillows and all the necessities! There was plenty off room in the sitting areas and kitchen. Kids loved the game room. The indoor/outdoor pool was very nice. The beach was aka short bike ride away. Would definitely book again!
Carol’s house is spacious, comfortable and filled with homely touches that really help you to feel at home. There are so many fun games, activities and recommendations to take advantage of, I only wish we were staying longer. Thank you Carol
Dream House...every conceivable item in house made our stay so easy including a Tesla charger for our two cars. The floor plan was excellent as it allowed kids to be in different areas. The golf cart was a big hit with kids as were the bicycles towels and beach chairs. The garage was a kid's dream come true with video games on two huge screens. Already booking for next year. Mike and Carol both excellent hosts!
Or trip was amazing from start to finish. Carol for us in a bit rearlier than check in time and we loved the house. Carol and her husband stayed next door and helped us with any questions or issues we had during our stay. They were so kind and helpful, checking in, when they saw us, too make sure we were enjoying ourselves. We would stay with them again in a heartbeat!! Their attention to the little details in their gorgeous rental was perfect. We had the best time!!
Second time staying at this beautiful house! There is so much room and everything was exceptionally clean. The house has everything you need for cooking. Providing coffee was also a nice touch. I would highly recommend this house for your next vacation!
Property was amazing! They have everything you would need and more! Property owners were so accommodating & a fast response time. We are going to book for next summer :)
We had three families (11 total) and fit very comfortably in the house for the Thanksgiving holiday. Everything was as described (or better). The kitchen is well stocked - we had no issues making Thanksgiving dinner with several sides. The house was very clean and the owner responsive to our few questions. Due to weather we mostly stayed in the house and watched football or played games. And yes, the garage room w ping pong is heated well enough to use even in a winter storm.
