We loved walking down to Lake Michgan. The house sits on top of a bluff and was the perfect location for watching the sun set and roasting marshmellows on the fire pit. My family enjoyed a wonderful week here.

At 568 Mozart is a beautiful stately well furnished house with a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan and an amazing 179 step staircase to a very private beach. Would go back in a heart beat.

Great view of Lake Michigan. Wonderful access to Meijer and town for all your needs. Stairs workout to get to the beach. Beach has lots of rocks but there is a sand bar you can walk to for your water fun.

We had a great stay at this home. The views were great, the home was very clean, modern and comfortable. The beach was private and beautiful- we saw a deer on the beach twice. There are many steps to the beach, but we knew that before renting and viewed it as our exercise. The host was great and responsive.

Wonderful view of the lake greets you as soon as you walk through the front door, and the house was spotless and very comfortable. It has a well situated kitchen and gorgeous dining room table. The beds were great and we appreciated that each had its own en-suite bathroom. The wood flooring throughout the house is stunning. The owner was super responsive and hospitable. We had a deer visit the backyard which was a nice surprise. Highly recommended, and we’d love to visit again sometime.

Lovely house, spotless, beautiful view, very well stocked. Small bugs coming through the screens and one porch umbrella broken but other than that perfect!!

Outstanding lake home with beach access at the end of your private stairs. Our entire family enjoyed the Beautiful, well designed for families, beach home. Between cooking breakfasts in the spacious/ open kitchen to grilling dinners on the patio with a bonfire, couldn’t get any better…! Our adult children and grandchildren loved playing in the water, as Papa and Gigi watched and walked along the beach. Shopping lunch in downtown South Haven was excellent too. Highly Recommend!

We really loved this location. There was plenty of space indoors and outdoors for our group of 12. All the bedrooms had attached bathrooms, which was super convenient. The indoor space was very clean and well decorated with a beachy vibe. It was a short walk to the beach, & we appreciated having beach chairs and toys provided. The outdoor space was amazing and offered a spectacular view of the water. We would definitely come back to this location.

Wonderful rental. Absolutely beautiful homel. It is just as described. The owners were easy to work with, the property was perfect for a getaway with friends. We have small children so they loved the bunk beds, beach and toys. Adults enjoyed the fire pit at night and the open floor plan. We enjoyed that they left games, sand toys and movies for us to use. Nice touches of home. Great rental. We would stay again.

There were 11 of us staying here and it was perfect! Plenty of space to spread out and not be on top of each other. The bedrooms are all beautiful and very welcoming. The main floor is open with a beautiful table we could all fit at for each meal. The kitchen is very well stocked and although small, it was a joy to be in and serve buffet style meals. The beach is about 180 steps down but it feels like it's own little get-away too. The outside area is very well done and well suited for kids to adults. There is plenty of beach still too which was great. (although it is a rocky beach so pack your water shoes if you plan on walking or swimming).

Your home is gorgeous!! We loved all of the details and care you put into it. Our ping pong tourney was a blast! my only issue was with the steps down to the beach. I didn't realize it was nearly 200 steps. It wouldn't have been a problem, except my husband has a knee injury and was never able to go to the beach as we were not sure he could make it back up. I have come to find out that several reviewers make reference to the amount of steps. I suppose I should have read more reviews. I wish that you had put the amount of steps in your main description, so that we wouldn't have been caught off guard. Thank you.

We had a great stay at this beautiful home on Lake Michigan. The views of the lake and sunset from the back porch and the living room were breathtaking. The house is well equipped and clean. The owners were prompt with responses to questions. The only problem we had during our stay was with the fruit flies. They were quite prevalent in the kitchen from the moment we arrived. We were advised to put vinegar in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. That was a fine solution (which worked pretty well of the course of our stay) but required a trip to a grocery store to purchase the items. Not a big deal but maybe those items should be made available if that is the solution to the problem. Otherwise, our stay was great and would recommend this lovely home for a getaway. We did not have children with us, but it is ideal for them!

Let me just preface this by saying that during the last 10 years we have stayed at over 40 vacation homes throughout the midwest. This one stands out and I am grateful to the owner for letting us enjoy this lakefront property and create memorable family experiences. We had an extended weekend stay with kids 9-13 and greatly enjoyed all amenities the house had to offer and the private beach. What stood out to me the most, was the striking architectural elegance of the home. Inside and out, everything in its proper place, harmonious symmetry and masterful design execution down to the smallest detail. Other highlights for us are the outdoor spaces and private beach. We would spend long hours at the beach and nights around the firepit on the patio enjoying ourselves and the vistas. I loved the beach. In the early hours, waters were calm and kids would swim, play games, and go pebble hunting. At the time, water was waste deep 50 yards into the lake which was awesome. Mornings I would run up and down the stairs that lead to the beach for an awesome workout. That said, if you have any kind of mobility issues, you will not be able to enjoy the beach as the vertical drop to it is significant. The athletic types would love it. I would highly recommend this vacation home and we will hopefully be back someday soon.

We had 3 couples for a long weekend getaway and chose this house because every bedroom has a lake view and its own bath. Also the main space is open for gathering PLUS there’s beach access for long walks along the water! The house was just as shown and even better. It’s lovely and light inside. Kitchen was great for food prep and shared meals at the big table. We enjoyed morning coffee on the porch looking out at the lake and sunset cocktails down on the beach. Grilled out in the back yard which is also well-appointed—tables with umbrellas, outdoor shower, swing located perfectly to watch the lake/sunset. The 180 step staircase to the beach is a workout, so be advised (and make sure you have what you want as “running back to the house to get something” is a real climb! But the beach area is private and so much fun to walk. Easy swimming/wading/beach rock collecting too, and they keep chairs for you stored conveniently close to the bottom of the staircase. No beach towels/cooler in the house, so bring your own. (NOTE TO JIM: that might be something to add to this already well-stocked place.) The house is close to both Saugatuck/Douglas and South Haven for restaurants and shopping/exploring. We went to nearby state park for a hike too (dunes trails and beach access). This place will be gorgeous ALL year around. The host was so easy to work with and really responsive when I had a few questions about check-in. Highly recommend.

Our whole family enjoy our stay at your beautiful home. Everything was wonderful. The steps going down to the beach were a challenge but we a managed. The battery in the bedroon on the second floor kept beeping saying fire. We took out the battery. We did love our stay. Gretchen fire.

We had a great stay. We planned a last minute trip and Jim was super helpful and responded quickly to all our questions. The house is great, clean, and the location is quiet. We loved the beach access and view from the house and the yard. We wouldn't hesitate to come again with just our family or a larger group!

My family of 4 (adults and teens) stayed here over our fall break and we could not have been more pleased. The home is clean, comfortable and the views cannot be beat! It is just as advertised. It would be great for a larger group as well - there is just so much space! We had fun playing ping pong, going to the private beach and watching the sunsets from the back porch. The home is perfectly located to explore SW Michigan. I highly recommend this home!

We spent a wonderful early fall weekend at the house with our extended family. The space is clean, full or charm, and perfectly set up to accommodate a large group of all ages. The views are absolutely stunning and we loved exploring the rock beach, watching the sunset, and sleeping with the sound of the waves in the background. A magical spot that we’d love to come back to.

Great house in a beautiful setting. The floor plan was perfect for our group of 7. Also the perfect distance into South Haven and just a little further into Saugatuck. A lot of stairs down to the beach but worth the trip!! The owner was very helpful and communicative. Great property.
