The Main Level of our home has 3 guest bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms AND the beautiful and spacious master bedroom is its own suite with huge walk-in shower and 2 separate vanities.

In the sunroom, which has all blackout curtains, is a sofa bed with new queen size mattress.

In 2024, we’ve added another bedroom overlooking the ravine and fire pit, with a queen size bed.
The open concept of the main living area allows the kitchen to be the heart of the home and an easy gathering spot for all.

The kitchen has an Instant pot, air fryer, tabletop s’mores maker, salad spinner, 2 waffle makers, pizza stone, 3 crock pots, electric roasting pan, blender and so much more! And it’s all labeled so you don’t have to spend time looking all over for what you need! 2 full size refrigerators and 2 microwaves and a 4 burner gas stove and oven.

Two air hockey games, smaller ping pong table and a foosball table are located on a cement slab outside the sliding glass doors.

The grassy yard has three swing sets, merry-go-round and tetherball and room to play just about any yard game you can think of!

Volleyball net stays set-up all season.

We have a collapsible badminton set, horseshoes and 2 sets of cornhole boards with bags of corn.
In 2023 we’ve added a tent that stays set up with luxury cots for 6 and is close to an indoor bathroom! Anyone that would love to see what it’s like to go camping can give it a try here! Only room in for sleeping.😳
We have a beautiful ravine that is now cleaned up, thanks Jim, and is awesome for walking in and there’s a picnic table to use and a few chairs. Sometimes our little creek has water flowing through it. We think you’ll love this added space.

We spent a week with our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren here at Lynette’s Landing. It was glorious! We enjoyed all the amenities of the property, including the fire pit, basketball court, volleyball, bicycles toys, and the extremely large kitchen… able to feed our big family. We also enjoyed being able to go off adventures to the lake and in South Haven. It was a wonderful experience. Jim and Lynette were wonderful hosts. They responded quickly to any question or need we had. We really appreciated their thoughtfulness.

Everything you would need
Things we liked. The house was really great for our group of 25. The outside space was really nice with a lot of play sets and a good fire pit. We weren’t too far from the beach, about a 10 minute drive at most. They provided a lot of coolers and ice packs. The kitchen is large and has just about everything you would need for cooking. Lots of space to store food with two fridges. They even had ziplock bags and storage containers for leftovers. Tons of towels and a washer/dryer is such a huge plus. super friendly and nice hosts The owners live close by and were able to help with any problems quickly. They also have a lot of things for baby care if needed like a highchair and a pack and play. We would stay here again. Things that weren’t ideal. Bathroom near the laundry room needs a lock installed. With kids it makes it too thrilling of an experience. Although it makes sense from a business standpoint, it would be nice to have a bit more freedom in dates you book for (as opposed to the whole week friday-friday for the mouths of June-August). They have a super nice pool table, but if it's damaged while you stay there it's $400 to repair it and having kids makes it nerve wracking, regardless of if you let them play on it. The owners did an unannounced yard project while we stayed there which was really loud (laying cable for an internet improvement). Again, overall it was really nice for our family.

Great stay in South Haven...not too far from the beach!
Our group had a great stay at Jim and Lynette's place in the woods. It is very close to the Kal Haven Trail, Sherman's ice cream, and Three Blondes Brewing...all of which we enjoyed several times during our stay. While the drive to the beach might be a bit longer by 2-3 minutes, the quiet, wooded house, packed with games, toys, and seating for plenty made it well worth it. Jim and Lynette are both attentive and kind hosts, responding quickly to questions about hot water and getting a replacement remote for the second TV. Our crew likes to cook and we could hardly miss with a well stocked kitchen, plenty of room to all work at the same time, and multiple grills! Thanks for a great stay! Looking forward to the next time!

Amazing house for a group
We had a great weekend celebrating a deployment homecoming and graduations! We had 16 people and the house had plenty of room for everyone to comfortably sleep and hang out. Jim and Lynette have stocked the house with everything you may need and have clearly labeled everything. They are also very communicative! The house is in a great location with activities for everyone within 10 miles. I highly recommend this property!

Celebrating Mom's birthday
This home was amazing! It was so well stocked with anything we could have needed and very clean. There was plenty of space for us all to sit together or to spread out. We loved sitting out by the fire, playing pool and air hockey, and visiting downtown South Haven. This home gave us a chance to get our whole family together to celebrate my MIL's 80th birthday! We were all so happy to find a home large enough for all of us! Thank you so much!

Amazing home for extended family vacation
This home was perfect for our extended family vacation. We had plenty of space for all 5 nuclear families (10 adults and 7 kids ranging from age 1-14) The older kids loved sleeping in the open basement area. The large kitchen was easy to navigate with all the drawers and cabinets labeled. We enjoyed the peaceful location, and the kids played a ton in the large yard and expansive driveway. If we ever get a large group together in South Haven again, this will be the house we book!

This property has just about every amenity required. The property is listed as sleeping 30 and the owners have made sure to provide enough of everything to accommodate 30.

We have an annual family week. The total group is about 25, ranging from 2 to the mid 80s.

The property was well maintained, well provisioned and we plan to visit again next year. The host is next door and very responsive.
