Perfect for Family - HEATED POOL thru early Oct, WALK to Downtown/Beach, HOT TUB

'Sunset Center' is an adjacent pair of family vacation houses. The 'Sun House' is a 6 bedroom, 4 bathroom vacation home featuring a private gated 15x30 heated swimming pool, 6 person hot tub, playscape, and wooded ravine lot with fire pit. The property is an easy 4 block walk down the sidewalk to South Beach, Kid's Corner, and downtown shopping and dining.

All comforts of home are provided, including washer and dryer, linens, all major kitchen appliances (including refrigerator with ice and water dispenser, range, dishwasher, and microwave), kitchen utensils, free wireless Internet, 8 cable TVs (Four X1 Voice Enabled boxes with apps such as Netflix, Youtube, and access to the HDR, and 4 basic cable boxes for the remainder), many DVD/VCR players, CD players, just to name a few.

The house is perfect for families with children of all ages. The pool and hot tub are gated for your protection. Both the front and back yards are fenced.

Family-friendly items included are books for all ages, toys, puzzles, movies for all ages, well-loved bikes, riding toys, high chair, full size crib with rocking chair, baby gate, exersaucer, strollers, sippee cups, baby monitor, booster seats, kid-sized picnic table, and pool toys.

Enjoy the flexibility and convenience of having 6 private bedrooms, conveniently located throughout the house! 4 bedrooms are upstairs. One is a large master suite with private bathroom. Another full bathroom is in the upstairs hall. 2 bedrooms are downstairs, each adjacent to separate full bathrooms. The house has an open design, with the living room, dining area and kitchen all open to each other in a 'great' room. The sunroom overlooks the backyard pool and wooded ravine yard. The sunroom can be accessed from either the hallway or through the kitchen.

There is another bonus room downstairs that is referred to as the 'futon room' or the 'play' room since it can be closed off as a 7th bedroom with a futon or utilized as a another common living room with a TV/VCR/DVD with a video library and bookshelves loaded with books, games, and toys.

The pool will be open and heated from mid May until approximately October 1. The hot tub is open and heated year-round. Enjoy the rare warm water in South Haven in June and September!

Need even more space? My property actually has 2 houses next door to each other. My Ice House is another 6 bedroom house right next door.

Exceptional place, exceptional owner
Everyone wants to come back! The accommodations were comfortable and clean with so much available for summertime fun. The location is close to both the beach, which is pristine, and the town, which is hoppin', giving our children and their families much to enjoy with little travel. Jim was so kind and generous, making sure we had everything we needed. He went above and beyond to make our stay in his beautiful home a vacation to remember. Thank you, Jim!

Overall things were nice for a family of 12. The owner was on top of all of our needs. The house is very kid friendly. My only suggestion would be to update the bedrooms with shades. The curtains are very thin,

Great property/Some issues
This will be a great news/not so great type of review. First the great. The house was great. Upon our arrival it was clean and accommodated my family perfectly. There was plenty of room for our three daughters and nine grandchildren ranging from 11 years old to four months. The bedrooms were setup nicely and the four bathrooms came in handy with such a large group. Supplies were adequate and greatly appreciated. Much time was spent enjoying the front porch and sunroom. No complaints about any of this part of the property. My main issues were with the outside part of the property which was a huge factor in our decision to rent this property. Upon our arrival I found the pool and deck areas less than satisfactory. There were bird droppings on the sides of the pool and on the deck area. The entire area was littered with leaves and tree debris. I had guests arriving in three hours and knew the first thing my grandkids would want to do is hit the pool. I was able to make a quick trip to the nearby Ace Hardware and purchased a blast nozzle and spent about two hours remedying this problem that I feel should never have been an issue to begin with. After this was taken care of we had a great week of swimming and family fun at this house. The location is great and I believe the host to be an honest and honorable man. Because of the issues described above I can't give more than an 8 out of 10 review. Our experience was great other than these issues

Amazing vacation location!
We had an absolute amazing time at this location for vacation! We came right before Memorial Day weekend and it was awesome! We had 5 kids and the pool was so much fun for them! There were so many kid items there as well as toys for them, which was helpful! We did rent the golf cart as well and had so much going for little golf cart rides, heading down to the marina, or going the few blocks to the sand/lake! The location of this house makes it easy to walk wherever you want to go or take a quick ride. The owner was very quick to respond to any questions as well. We definitely would recommend this spot to anyone looking to take a trip!

Nice spacious house
There was 8 in our family group, plenty of sleeping options. Kitchen a little small. Arcade game was a hit. I would recommend paying the extra and renting the golf cart. Convenient to downtown and lake. Overall good place to stay. Would not recommend October, lots of place and things to do were closed and it rained all 3 days.

Family time
Loved our long weekend in South Haven; the house gave us perfect walking access to downtown as well as to the beach. Bedrooms and baths (and four showers!) met the needs of all of us—6 adults and 5 kids ages 15, 14, 13, 12, and 12. Pool and hot tub were used frequently. We cooked all our own meals—great gas grill and good assortment of pots and pans. Appreciated the supply of paper supplies provided—even Kleenex in the bathrooms. Good communication with Jim, who checked in and provided any needed assistance. We wished the house had been a little bit cleaner, but overall would gladly come back.

Properties were amazing, pictures didnt do them justice!! Whenever we had a need for anything, we found it in the house already. The owner truly thought of everything! We had great communication with the owner. I couldn't have picked a better VRBO home!! We were here for our wedding and had family(some from out of the country)stay with us, and they were equally impressed. Amazing!

The owner was helpful and accommodating the hot tub was amazing! This place had more than enough room for our large group and the Atari machine on the wall provided hours of group fun in the cold weather. Great location, short walk to the shops and restaurants and a nice quiet view out back amongst the trees. We will be back again. Thanks Jim!

Comfortable, convenient, and clean
The property is conveniently located, and pictures provided accurately represent the interior and exterior spaces. The amenities provided facilitate fun and relaxation for all age groups. The kitchen is well equipped; indoor and outdoor cooking options and supplies are consistent with the number of guests the house comfortably accommodates. The check in and out procedures are clear, and processes are smooth. We did not have a need to contact the host during our stay, but he reached out to us upon our arrival to ensure everything was in order and answer any initial questions regarding the property and amenities. Our group enjoyed the property, which is suitable for families or adult groups. We would return to this rental without hesitation based on our experience. Thank you to the host for attention to detail and commitment to a positive guest experience.

Perfect stay!
We rented this property after having stayed at South Haven with the same group at a different property 2 years prior. It was such a refreshing, updated home that housed 6 adults and 7 kids, 3 months-5 years. It was spacious, equipped with a playroom and gated front yard the kids enjoyed. We are looking forward to coming back the next time we can get together and make use of the pool!
