Photos and Description of the South Haven vacation house rental 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, Sleeps 10

Your days begin and end with the soft caress of a lake breeze. Let the sugar-sands 'sing' underfoot as you saunter along the shoreline as far as the eye can see. Explore the majestic dunes, gracious vineyards and welcoming orchards. Discover set-away golf courses, farmer's markets and the famous 'Lakeshore Wine Trail'. Remember that pottery class you've been meaning to take? Go ahead, then sign up the entire family. Enjoy locally-grown berries, cherries or world-famous 'Haven Peaches'. Explore the nearby lakeshore towns of St. Joseph, Saugatuck and your homebase, South Haven. Take as long as you like to traipse the meandering stairway to & from your Private Beach. Photograph or paint sunsets that defy words. Enjoy a concert-on-the-river then walk out to the famous South Haven Lighthouse or take a Sunset Cruise aboard the sloop 'Friends Goodwill'. Ask about her noble service to both the US and Britain during the War of 1812. Hike or bike the 33-mi. Kal-Haven Trail.

Great family get-away vacation ...

Review Submitted: July 14, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
What can we say, fantastic location, heavenly sunsets, beautiful home, fashionable decorated, FULLY furnished kitchen (our family loves to cook together), private beach, dreamy deck and far away from "people" yet close enough to be 5 minutes from town. Everything our family was looking for in a get-away vacation!! Highly recommended!!
