The River Retreat
This is a hidden gem! Our group stayed here for a weekend and had an awesome time. We loved the hot tub, the cozy couch and big common spaces, the tricked out finished garage space, and easy access to the lakes (both by kayaking or a nice 25 min path walk). Aaron is a phenomenal host. He stocked the place with anything we could’ve needed and more. Would stay here again for sure. Only knock is we overestimated the number of bedrooms by 1, but that might’ve been our own fault. We had someone sleep on the nice big couch so it wasn’t an issue.

Birchwood Beach House
Beautiful vacation get-away accommodation 15 minutes drive from South Haven. Me along with my family of 5 people really enjoyed the stay. The house is surrounded by big trees and woods, making for very serene, peaceful, and beautiful surroundings. The private beach was just a 5 to 7 minute walk from the house, with a private beach key access. The house was beautiful and huge from inside, and had all amenities that a family might need on a get-away trip. The backyard along with the campfire pit was a beautiful touch and made for warm, cozy moments during the evenings. The hosts were very responsive, friendly, and helpful. They gave clear instructions and had even got them written in a handbook found inside the house. Really recommend this property to anyone visiting South Haven and need a nature get-away stay!

South Haven 5 BR - Walk to the Beach - Fire Pit
Very clean and well-maintained property, all of the amenities and appliances were exactly as advertised. Neighborhood is quiet and only a few minutes from the beach. Would stay again!

Fern Creek | Pool, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Chess | Dogs
This home exceeded our expectations! A fully stocked, gourmet kitchen with plenty of seating and overflow areas. Bright, fresh and clean with exceptional detail in every area bth indoors snd outdoors. Our children and grandchildren loved the warm pool (81 degrees) and of course the in-ground jacuzzi was amazing and relaxing. Loved having bikes available to ride to the beaches snd beyond. Downtown South Haven is minutes away; great restaurants, a Speakeasy opens Thursday-Sunday. Farmers Market at the pavilion offers local foods and gifts every Saturday and Wednesday 8am-2pm. Every morning and evening we watched the deer 🦌 just outside the sunroom windows. Our family said that this home set a high bar.

Family Vacation Home two Blocks from Lake Michigan
Perfect location, under 5 min drive to restaurants and shops, very short walk to the beach & kids corner

4 Blocks to Town/Beaches • Pets Welcomed • Hot Tub
Had a wonderful time! Such a charming place with all the amenities we wanted for our kids and fur baby, plus the location was perfect to walk around town. We had a lovely stay! Loved all the recommendations from the host as well!

Luxury Living w Heated Pool & Hot Tub| Sleeps 10
We really enjoyed our stay at Jennifer’s house! It was clean, great location & cozy! We especially loved the automatic pool cover so we could actually relax on vacation with our little ones running around. I also loved the three separate areas outside (pool, fire pit, grassy area). The separate areas offered a nice change of scenery to break up the day without leaving the house. I also loved that it’s a spacious ranch style house, so was easy to keep eyes on the kids. Jennifer was a wonderful & accommodating host & can’t wait to get back to her house soon! Thanks for having us!

Planet 210! Year Round Hot Tub+Kayaks+Ping Pong
Very nice home, tons of room and everything you need! Having main living space upstairs is beautiful but difficult if stairs are an issue and a 10:00 check out time is to early.

Robyn’s Beach Nest #5 at ♥️ of Downtown Saugatuck
Excellent location. Unit is small and bathroom/toilet is a tight fit. Very clean on arrival and furnishings are nice.

Rustic Country Lakeside Retreat - Lower Unit
I just love Eagle Lake, it's so beautiful and peaceful out there. The cottage offers a stunning view of the lake from its deck. Stephaney has kayaks and paddle boats available while you are staying there. Keeps the kids entertained for sure. Will definitely stay there again!!

Afterglow Lodge
My two girlfriends and I stayed here for two nights and it has the most beautiful view of Lake Michigan! We arrived later in the evening and were so thankful that our host left us with restaurant menus and recommendations, we loved the pizza. Place was clean and very well stocked with linens and even coffee and some water in the fridge. The beach is a steep staircase away (it was a bit rough, and my legs hurt, but it’s worth the trek). Also thank you sooo much for letting us use your beach chairs! We stayed on the beach from sunrise to sunset. It was magical and the views are to die for! Our only complaint would be the lack of communication that the host would be staying on site during the same weekend as us. The listing brags about a private beach and yet at one point the hosts wife appeared 15-20 feet sitting directly behind us reading a book. We felt like teenagers being watched by our mother. We decided to take a walk, and when we came back she was gone, but it was weird.

Old School Condo/Loft in South Haven
Loved the uniqueness of this property, which was both charming and comfortable. Beautiful grounds, great location that was walkable to shops, beach, lighthouse, eateries, etc. Would gladly stay again!

Spacious Condo, Outdoor Heated Pool, Private Beach
Sameena was wonderful and extremely responsive. This was one of the cleanest Airbnbs we have been to. We had three toddlers with us and weren’t worried about the cleanliness of the floors, walls or surfaces. The very pleasant cleaning woman lives close by if anything comes up. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to cook a meal. The only inconvenience is that there isn’t a washer and dryer in the home but there is one available to use down the street with clear instructions on how to get there. Overall this was a wonderful experience with plenty of space!

Broad Street Boat House
Great place to stay for my family of 3! Very cute, spacious, clean, welcoming and so close to downtown and everything you need! Claire was very responsive and easy to talk to/ask questions. Highly recommend :)

Awesome Family Escape with pool and private beach
We had a great stay here! Beautiful view of the lake and overlooked the pool. Short walk to a very private feeling beach with gorgeous sunsets. The apartment was clean and very comfortable. Extra little amenities added a nice touch. Super comfy king bed. Quiet and peaceful area. Excellent communication and very accommodating. Highly recommended!

Second Floor Apartment sitting on Pine Lake
We had an amazing time! Me and my boyfriend stayed for one night, the patio and dock were super cozy and we really enjoyed sitting out there at night just listening to music and having some drinks. Super nice area, the beach isn't too far and they have some fun bars and restaurants in the area. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

B's Retreat: Hot Tub & 10-min walk to Beach!
Easy check-in and felt right at home. Jennifer was always responsive to messages. She also gave great suggestions for food etc. The house is located perfectly for walking to the beach, market, restaurants, coffee. It is also a great location for quick travels to New Buffalo, Three Oaks, Michigan City and more. We will visit again for sure!

Harbor Country Michigan Hide-Away
We had a great time staying at Amy's place! It is the perfect size for a couple. It feels very cozy and like you are actually staying at someone's home vs. the sterile Airbnbs that are owned by corporate entities these days. The property is as described. It is very private, yet close to everything! I would recommend staying here if you're in the area.

Dumela-Cozy Cottage w/ Views In Historic District
We absolutely loved the location of this adorable cottage right in town and so walkable to everywhere in Saugatuck. The views were great and the chairs on the patio looking out on the water were so relaxing. The bed was comfy and it had everything we needed. I also loved that they had cable, so we could relax for a bit before bed and not have to try to remember passwords to log into our streaming platforms.

Lonnie's Private Eco Cottage with Lake & Trails
Third stay in two weeks. Everything about the cottage and grounds is perfect and I am already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend!

The Wildwood Cottage, private lake access
Great place to stay. Christine is a really good host. The house was clean, and the back yard is great. The only thing is that the access to the beach is a bit challenging than described. But, overall, we had a great expereince at Christine's place.

Lake View Cottage
Adorable place! We had an amazing time and can’t wait to come back. We’ve been numerous times and this will be the first time we’ve wanted to come back to the same place!!!

Steps to the Beach! Screened in Porch & Firepit!
What an absolute gem. Both the place and the host. So responsive and kind. We really appreciated the organization and the cleanliness. 100% recommend and looking forward to our next stay in Sept.

Lakeshore Haven - Near beaches, biking & bonfires
This cute house was the perfect location for a quick weekend getaway. It was walking distance to the lake and only a 15 minute drive to downtown Holland. The host was also very friendly and responsive. I highly recommend this Airbnb for a trip to Holland!
