We had a great stay with wonderful hosts. The location is ideal for walking into town and down to the lighthouse and beach. Having a full kitchen is always a plus. We were very happy with our stay.
This is one of our favorite places to stay. The view of the marina, and the manicured lawn and gardens, is quite wonderful. Very peaceful, and relaxing. And yet, you are but a 5 minute walk to downtown. It is a location, and a property, that can't be beat.
We loved our stay and walking around town enjoying the shops and restaurants. The home was lovely and the host were wonderful. Would definitely recommend.
Cute place in convenient location to town/harbor/beach
Very nice place with attentive host at a great location in lovely neighborhood that is short walk to cute town and harbor/beach area with lots of shops and restaurants. Enjoyed our stay!
This is the place to stay for a small group in South Haven. Fabulous location- near beach and shopping. Lovely accommodations, and super friendly hosts.
Beautiful and comfortable property with perfect location very close to town and South Beach on quiet street. Property has everything you need for a peaceful beach vacation. Loved the screened in porch with outside dining and view of boats.
This is our second stay at crimson sun and we love it! The perfect location to walk into town or to the beach, quiet at night and the best hosts. The home is always clean and comfortable. Check in is super easy and the gardens around the home are perfect for pictures!
We loved this property. Close to town and walking distance to everything you need! Hosts were very nice, check in was easy, views were amazing and house was very clean!
Had a wonderful couple of days in South Haven celebrating my sister’s birthday. Beautiful house with pristine yard. The location was near shop’s & lighthouse…easy & pretty walk! We’ll definitely be back to visit!
The perfect size and accommodations for our group of 4. We loved and enjoyed sitting out on the screened in porch over looking the Black River. If you ever stay here, make sure you check out their impressive flower garden. My only request would be to have more comfortable beds.
Loved this place, absolutely beautiful and the description is perfect. We enjoyed the view and the garden is just gorgeous and well taken care of. The accommodation was great and had everything you could possibly need. Truly hope to go back again !!!! Can’t say enough good things about our stay and the lovely town as well as our hosts.
The location was absolutely fantastic and our hosts were so amazing. They brought us fresh cut flowers from their beautiful garden, made sure we were set and then left us alone. Easy keypad check-in, comfortable and clean space, and walking distance to everything we wanted to do in SoHa! We will definitely be back!!
After a wonderful stay last year, my husband and I returned for another lovely weekend in this beautifully appointed home away from home. You'll get a good night's sleep in the comfortable bedrooms and the kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies. It is a special place, conveniently located for walking downtown or to the lake and with great views of the river from the comfort of the screened porch. We looked forward to our stay and hope to make it an annual visit!
Beautiful home in a great location. Close to the beach on a quiet street. Communication with host was very helpful. Easy check in. Fresh flowers in the unit and coffee were a nice touch. Beautiful garden and nice screened porch. Hope to visit again. Great weekend with friends.
This apartment was perfect for our needs. Close to town and in a very quaint neighborhood. We had everything we needed . We also had access to beach chairs umbrellas coolers and anything we needed for beach days! Only slight complaint was the mattress on the queen bed but not a deal breaker. Had a wonderful time here drinking our coffee on the porch overlooking the harbor
We loved our week in South Haven! The house was exactly as pictured and described. It was a perfect location for walking to the beach and to downtown. John, Sally and Dan were so kind and helpful throughout the entire week. Our children loved exploring their beautiful garden. We will definitely be back!
We had an amazing two night stay here while I was in town for a HDPE event at Gingerman Raceway. The drive was less than 12 minutes to Gingerman and within walking distance of everything downtown South Haven including the beach. Terrific location, clean, and well maintained. Lovely garden as well. I also drive a lowered car and it was able to clear the driveway entry, just barely!
The apartment was fabulous. Great size, clean, bathroom huge. The grounds are just gorgeous. Beautiful flowers and fresh flowers in the apartment. Walking distance to the main street with shops and restaurants.
The host was accommodating. The property was a lovely setting. Water view neighborhood garden front porch. Attention to detail including organic coffee & good pillows! Would stay again
