Cozy and charming home

Exactly as pictured! Charming comfortable place! Beds were very comfortable and the pillows also very comfortable. Loved the large kitchen with fridge with ice and water dispenser! Loved the firepit and seating! About 6 blocks from lake and huge park for kids!

Perfect home for a South Haven Getaway

We had a great stay, this home is super spacious and has all the amenities a family could need. There was a perfectly large fenced in yard for the kids to play and a grill to make some dinner before relaxing around the fire pit. The kicker was amazing and included all the little things u always forget on a trip which was very helpful. The location is perfect and is a quick walk to dining, entertainment and even the beach. We look forward to staying again and making a tradition out of it!

Nice home

The renovations and decor were spot on for a house near the lake. The beds were comfortable. The little extras (soap, shampoo, kitchen items) were thoughtful additions to the house. My only complaint was one bedroom is very small, not enough room for luggage. My family enjoyed the home !!

Everything was perfect!

We have no complaints! It was perfect! Everything was updated and very comfortable and cozy! The decor was so awesome and the house has so much character. Also, it was well appointed with all the necessary things needed to be comfortable and really enjoy ourselves! It’s very roomy as there were 5 of us and it was very easy for us all to spread out if we needed to. Will definitely stay again when we get back to South Haven sometime in the near future! I highly recommend this wonderful home!

Inside of the house was very cute. Beds are comfortable. Outside was very unkept. Hadn’t been mowed in months.

Sweet cottage in good location

We enjoyed our stay in this nicely decorated and updated South Haven style cottage. Two spacious bedrooms and a nice updated bath upstairs and two cozy bedrooms and smaller bath on the first floor was perfect for our group of three couples and a baby. The kitchen had everything we needed and the layout works well. As others have noted the yard could use mowing, but that didn’t impact our group. You can walk to either the beach or shops in 10 minutes. South Haven sunsets are not to be missed!! Also near the two awesome bike trails.

Vacation

It was a nice spot The home has extreme foundation issues which aggravated my vertigo so I was dizzy and tried to be outside of the house as much as possible I will never stay here again There was garbage inside that included a dirty diaper that was unsettling when we first got there, otherwise it was very clean

We had a great experience at this property. Upon arrival, we immediately noticed how clean it was. The furnishings appeared to be brand new and very stylish. The property was nicely remodeled. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen provided all the necessary accessories and appliances. We especially enjoyed spending the our evenings around the large firepit. The yard had a children's play set as well as plenty of space for them to run around, while enjoying various games and sports. Inside there was a good amount of toys available to keep our little ones busy. It was located in a great spot, as the beach and downtown area were both easily accessible by a short walk. Stores were also a short walk/drive away, making it easy to pick up groceries or necessities. We would definitely go back and highly recommend staying here! Thanks!

Communication issues overshadowed the rest

The house was clean and as photographed. Unfortunately upon arrival we noticed that the oven did not work. We attempted 3 separate times in 24 hours to get in touch with the property people and no one ever got back to us. This of course made it difficult to prepare food and the lack of response and assistance was disappointing.

Summer Fun at the Wayfarer

We loved all the little extras this cozy home came with- from all the necessities in the kitchen, grilling essentials, things to entertain the kids and the delicious smelling shower extras. I felt like I was at a home away from home and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a close location to downtown! We will definitely be back!!

Great stay!

We were in South Haven for a girls weekend. The house was super cozy and fit all 7 of us with zero issues, and the location can’t be beat! Within a half mile of downtown and the beach. We didn’t have any of our kids with us, but we noticed a pack-n-play in the upstairs closet and both rooms upstairs could easily accommodate a crib/blow up mattress for little if needed. Would absolutely stay again!

I've already done this. House is very old. Window in upstairs bathroom was drafty. Covered porch gives poor first impression. The updates were nice. 2bedrooms have no closet. The upstairs bedroom with no closet had room for a dresser or at least a luggage rack. Kitchen is nice.

Great location, spacious

Our party of four (2 adults, 2 kids) had plenty of room to spread out in this older home located about five blocks from South Beach. Downtown and Meijer was just a few minutes drive away as well. Very nicely decorated but could use a few tweaks to make it even more functional. There are several stairs to enter the residence, was a little tricky for the grandparent in our party. Pretty clean and comfortable for the most part. Laundry is in the basement and must be accessed from the outside (we did not use so can’t comment on those facilities). Overall a great place for the location.
