-2 bedrooms
-2 full bathrooms
-High ceilings
-3 queen-sized beds

Awesome place

Place was modern and clean. Close walking distance to nearly everything youd want. The only thing that could have been improved was to add black out curtains in the bedrooms. You are downtown and close to everything. We would stay here again.

Excellent location

The property was very nice and in an excellent location. The Property Manager was very responsive through the process. We also really enjoyed the deck to watch the boats come and go. One item that should be addressed is the charcoal grill which was mentioned in the location description. The one that was available is very tiny and should be upgraded for sure.

Great location to both beaches/lighthouses and walking distance to downtown SH. The condo was tastefully decorated with a lake theme. Beds were very comfortable! Nice furniture and kitchen area had ample seating around the bar and table for the four of us. We will definitely book again. Stephanie provided info for condo and surrounding cities. Only hiccup was the condo door keypad didn’t work (likely low battery),but access to keys so no issue. Parking was very close to the building. Thanks for the nice stay!

Our Get Away was a Great Away!

We used this wonderful condo as basecamp while we explored South Haven, and attended Thlip Time in Holland. The condo was spacious, and decorated beautifully with a marina/water theme. The owner has invested in this condo and you can see and feel it. I would certainly stay here again. Thank you for the welcome gifts!
