Notes: Idlewood is in a resort community with shared green space. This is not a property with a large backyard but instead offers shared greenspaces, community fire pits, walking trails, and community pools and of course close access to South Haven's amazing beaches. If you are looking for a large, private back yard, this may not be the right home for you.
Please keep in mind that hot tub and pool availability may suddenly change due to mechanical failures or emergency cleaning. The pool and hot tub is professionally managed and we will do our best to ensure quickest availability as possible.
