Perfect home base for South Haven vaca
Every summer I take my three boys on a guys only vacation and this year was our first time in South Haven. This property was a great home base for our daily activities. We were able to drive 2 min to stock up on groceries for breakfast, and after a lazy morning we would drive 2 min to hit the beach, town, and arcade. Terri was an excellent host and very responsive to any questions. The next time we visit South Haven we will definitely stay here again!
