This house is comfortable and charming. Inside there is every little thing you might need and outside is a quiet and comfortable place to read in the hammock or eat supper under the trees. The walk to the beach is good; the beach is wonderful; and we will definitely be back!

It is a quintessential cottage. As others have commented, the cottage was well stocked with everything needed to cook just about anything. It is just a short distance to the beach and easy to find your way to South Beach. We spent an entire afternoon and evening on the beach. Great photo op for sunsets.

Very nice stay at Little Blue

We had a great time with our 17 month old twins at the little blue cottage. Overall a great place to stay outside of South Haven. Bonfire pit and private beach were great perks! If you’re staying here this summer, definitely bring mosquito repellent.

Little Blue was great

The Little Blue cottage was a really nice for my family of 3. The house is very maintained and was very accessible upon check-in. The house is in a great location, right in the middle of South Haven and Sagatuck, which gives a lot of good options in the area. The beach was easy to access as well!

2nd time staying here

Quaint little cabin… we went on a walk to the private beach our first night and saw 5 deer that came within 20 feet of us! Enjoyed relaxing watching movies in the evening and having chai on the front and back porch. Nice neighborhood and great place to come back to after a day at the beach or shopping in town!
