Beyond My Expectations!!

Review Submitted: August 7, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
Spent a fabulous week at the Octagon w/ my husband and our 5 & 7 year old daughters. The house was clean, and truly only needed to pack beach towels. The house location was great, close to many wonderful beaches and shopping! We spent a lot of time at the pool. A lot of the time we had it to ourselves.
We are already talking about a return vacation to the Octagon. Scott and Jill were very helpful in answering all of our questions! Thank you for an amazing vacation!

Perfect Family Vacation

Review Submitted: June 8, 2010 Date of Stay: May 2010
My family had a wonderful three day vacation at the Octagon! The house is just as it looks in the pictures. The property is clean and the owners are very friendly. The location is perfect as it within two minute driving distance of all the attractions, but still very quiet and serene. We spent lots of time on the deck, the beach, and in the shopping area of South Haven. We would definitely recommend the Octagon!

Fabulous Girls Getaway!!

Review Submitted: May 14, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2009
Stayed at the Octagon late last summer with 4 girlfriends for a long weekend and it was simply wonderful. Enjoyed beautiful Lake Michigan and shopping and eating in charming South Haven. The condo was perfect and had everything we needed. We spent much time on the deck, in the pool, and on the tandem bike (who doesn't love to tandem!). The condo is large, comfortable, clean and perfect for relaxing with friends. The owners were very friendly and helpful and even offered some great suggestions for things to do around South Haven.We all would highly recommend this property and are looking forward to another stay this year!

Repeat Vacationer

Review Submitted: March 5, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2009
The Octagon is the perfect place to stay in South Haven, and we rented it two years in a row. it's located within distance of just about everything, but it also is a nice retreat in the woods.

The accommodations are perfect - two well-appointed bedrooms, a handy loft for extra sleepers, a nice open floor plan, a huge deck, and even play equipment for the kids. It was nice to have the tennis court and pool as well.

We will definitely be returning to the area and the Octagon will always be our first choice.

By Far, the Best Week of My Summer. Thank You!

Review Submitted: January 31, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2009
I was thoroughly impressed w/ my stay at "The Octagon" this past summer on July 11th-18th. The location was perfect; close to the beach and Downtown South Haven, but far enough away to have peace and quiet. The interior was well-appointed and surprisingly spacious, the deck was huge and perfect for relaxing/entertaining, and the grounds were awesome. Tennis court, large pool and yard; plenty of room to run (or lay) around. The owner was very informative and helpful prior to our stay. "The Octagon" came as advertised and did not require any contact w/ either the owner or property manager. Thank you for that! I would highly recommend "The Octagon" to friends, couples, or small families. A great value in a great location. We liked it so much, we are booking for this upcoming summer as well. I wish I was there now.
