Charming 4 Bedroom Cottage w/Screen Porch - Walk To Beach & Town

Living Spaces
After a long day at the beach or out exploring the area, the whole family will love coming home to the inviting and spacious living room. With its soothing neutral furnishings and complementary decor, it's perfectly put together and abundantly welcoming. With plenty of comfortable sofas and chairs, it will quickly become your favorite evening go-to spot for TV and movies with the gang.

Peak & Non-Peak Season
If you are interested in staying a full week in the non-peak season, September through April, please send in an inquiry with your travel dates and we are happy to supply weekly pricing for your trip.

Cooking & Dining
The long galley kitchen is fully equipped with everything you'll need to create anything from a simple snack to a full-course meal. The abundance of counter space makes food prep a cinch, the tile backsplash adds a stylish element and the large window invites in the sunshine and breeze. You'll love cooking here! A formal dining room, complete with an arched doorway, adds an element of elegance to your family meals.

Bed & Bath
Four charming bedrooms, each with comfortable beds and luxury linens, ensure that each family member gets a great nights' sleep, ready for the next day's adventures. On the first floor of the home is a bedroom with queen size bed, dual nightstands and lamps, and a TV. The first floor bath has a tub/shower. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms with cozy dormer walls and queen-size beds. Each also has dual nightstands, and a private seating area with an armchair, side table and lamp. What a wonderful retreat for a few minutes of quiet with your book or your journal. The last cozy bedroom has two twin size beds and a nightstand with lamp. Guests will also find a convenient half-bath on this second level.

Outdoor Spaces
This is where the Sweet Pea Cottage shines! The large backyard is privacy-fenced and beautifully manicured with soft green grass and dramatic foliage. Off in the back corner is a fire pit with four benches, perfect for roasting marshmallows, making gooey s'mores and telling campfire stories!

The screened porch may well become the gathering space of choice, with its generous living and dining spaces. It will be a joy to bring your coffee out here in the morning, enjoying the view of the greenery as a cool breeze flows in. In the afternoons, it's a serene spot to read a few pages in your book or catch up on your social media feeds. And in the evening, enjoy your dinner at the dining table or simply relax as you watch the fireflies light up the night sky.

The house was great and felt very spacious. The backyard was wonderful, and it was nice to have a private area where my little kids could run around. It was also a perfect location being about equal distance walk to the beach and downtown. The neighborhood was quiet, and we felt very safe. I would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely fabulous! This house is the perfect South Haven vacation home. Every detail is thought of in this home. We loved the cart for taking our things to the beach, the comfy furniture in every room, the plethora of dishes (even a cake stand for my birthday cake!), the addition of hooks and storage places in every nook and cranny. The home was so clean and welcoming when we arrived. The yard is gorgeous and the screened porch really helped us enjoy the summer evenings. We absolutely loved this home and would rent here without hesitation. We just love South Haven and staying close to the beach and town made it easy to enjoy.

10/10 A true gem!

We’ve been coming to South Haven for decades, and this is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. So comfortable! The screened-in porch is very special. Lots of little touches—a tap to rinse off feet AND bars to hang towels outside. Pristine condition and landscaping. Very comfortable living room and dining area. Fabulous location. Highly recommend!

My 2 sisters and I stayed for a weekend and really enjoyed the home. It was clean and had everything needed. The screened porch and lovely backyard was most enjoyable. Beds were a little on the firm side for us as we all have Tempur Pedic beds. No air conditioning upstairs, but fans and open windows kept it cool enough. Thanks for sharing your lovely home!

Cute house

The place could be great. It has a good location, adorable yard and a wonderful screened in porch. However, the floors were dirty (socks were dark within an hour) and my in laws and I stepped on sand and dirt in kitchen and the first floor bedroom. The carpet going up the steps and in the hallway is quite dirty and probably should be replaced. Additionally, two of the beds were missing top sheets and I am fairly certain that most places do not wash the comforters/top bedspread. This left me using a bed without covers at all. If the cleaning could be improved (I think a clean floor and sheets on all the beds are reasonable expectations), then the stay would have been great. I am not comfortable at a place that doesn't feel clean, but if these issues do not matter to you, the stay could be nice.

Very Clean with a Beautiful Backyard

Property is very clean and well-maintained. Backyard and screened in porch are wonderful- wish we had brought s’mores and lighter pack to use in fire pit. Upstairs bathroom is very tiny (closet size) but we are a family of 3 so it was fine for us. A suggestion is to include a box of Kleenex in essentials paper package but otherwise had everything we needed. Location is perfect walking distance to restaurants, park and beach- overall a wonderful stay!

Final summer getaway

Perfect location and proximity to downtown and beach (can walk to both)! Loved the screened in porch and quiet street as well. Beds were pretty hard, but that’s the only minor complaint.

My family feel in love with this cute little house and the beautiful quiet neighborhood. My teenage boys wanted to move in! We walked to the beach and downtown area easily and wished we could stay longer. The house has everything you need and a lot of thoughtful touches just to make your stay more comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

What a beautifully landscaped yard perfect for a 3 & 5 yr. old to exert some play time when not at the Beach. The surprise Air-Hockey was a real treat and grilling & s'mores at the fire pit was perfect.
