This was our second stay and the house was just as perfect and charming. The outdoor pool and hot tub are wonderful in winter -- the large pool is essentially "globed" with a heated enclosure. The bedrooms are sizeable and there is room for everyone! We will stay again next winter.

Great weekend

Four adults and five kids were very happy with our stay. The cottage is exactly as the pictures look. The cottage was very clean and met our expectations. We were very happy with how well the cottage was stocked with towels, trash bags, paper towels, etc. The cottage had plenty of games for the children to play. The enclosed pool and outdoor hot tub was a big hit. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Family Weekend

We had the pleasure of staying at Sunshine Cottage with our family, and it made for the perfect fall weekend getaway! It was our first time visiting South Haven—a true gem. The house is beautifully appointed for families with young children and includes everything you might need for a trip to the beach. The location is fantastic—close to both the beach and downtown—and having access to the community pool was an extra treat. We can’t wait to visit South Haven and stay here again soon!

Optimal place for families

We stayed a weekend at the Sunshine cottage & had a delightful time. It was clean & the amenities were great for our family & friends. All the small touches like stools for the kids to wash hands & nightlights in the bedrooms & bathrooms made it feel like home. Beds were comfortable & there was plenty of space to hang out together or to relax alone during downtime. We enjoyed taking the chairs & sand toys to the beach for sunset. Well done Sunshine Cottage, we’ll be back!

Family vacation

We had a blast staying at this property in south haven. It was perfect for our family (ages range from 2-6 for the children). There were toys that my 2 and 4 year old loved playing with. We enjoyed the fire pit and it is close to the neighborhood pool. We made lots of great memories!

This house had the perfect layout for our family! So many thoughtful touches to make the stay easy with kids: fans in each bedroom, little shelf to set the baby monitor on, plenty of bedding and sleeping options for kids, kid friendly dishware, the list goes on! It was nice having access to two pools, easy drive to North or South Beach, a fun trail by the house that grandma took the kids to explore, and we roasted marshmallows on the back patio fire pit. The house was clean and met all of our expectations!

Fun Family Friendly Home

We had 3 generations in the house and it was well equipped for all, especially the kids. We loved the layout of the home with beach supplies in the garage and backyard fire pit. The new pool and hot tub was definitely a perk for staying in Harbor Club. The hosts were very responsive to our questions. Would certainly come back to Sunshine Cottage!

This place is beautiful. It’s very clean and well stocked with everything you need during your stay. We enjoyed the closeness of the pool, beach, restaurants, and the shops. It’s easy to walk to the town, park or beach if you want an easy walk every day. The house is very accommodating for families with children. Our grandchildren loved the kids room. We had a wonderful time. Next time we need to stay longer.

We absolutely loved the house and the location. The house had everything we needed and it was beautifully decorated. If you are coming with young children, the sunroom is perfect with a small table and chairs and a play kitchen. We enjoyed both available pools, but preferred the marina pool because there were less people and we had the pool to ourselves most times. We enjoyed eating at the Lodge, Clementines and Admiral Jacks. We like going to Meijer because we don't have one in Iowa. We also enjoy shopping downtown South Haven at their unique shops. This time we rented a pontoon boat from Blue Water at the marina and that was a lot of fun. Overall, out rental experience was fantastic.

Immaculate home, well thought out amenities, and memorable stay!

The owners did an amazing job with this property. Our family of 9 stayed comfortably with room to spare for extra guests. The toiletries were plentiful, and linens were well stocked. The kitchen was more equipped than my kitchen at home and we were able to prepare every meal during our stay in the kitchen at home. We enjoyed S’mores around the campfire every night and the owners even left us marshmallows, chocolate, and Graham crackers which was such a thoughtful touch. The home is just minutes from downtown South Haven without the crowds you’ll experience there. It was very conveniently located with a nice farmers market around the corner and Meijer a minute away. We will seek it out again on future trips to South Haven.

Sunshine Cottage in South Haven

We were looking for a house with plenty of space for a family get-together that was located near the beach and this property fit the bill. We were 5 adults and 3 kids and the house could have held more. All the living spaces were fine with comfortable furnishings, the kitchen was fully equipped, and the television and internet setup was great. There were plenty of toys for the kids and a good selection of books and games. For the beach there were folding chairs, umbrellas, beach toys and a wagon to haul everything in. Closest beach access was about a half-mile walk, the pool was even closer, and the excellent South Haven public beaches were a few minutes away by car. The property managers were very helpful. All in all, we had a pleasant and relaxing stay and highly recommend Sunshine Cottage.

Winter Weekend

We had a wonderful winter weekend at Sunshine cottage. This house was fully stocked with everything we needed. We had two toddlers and the house was very safe for children. It had all the necessary items we needed without us having to drag them. There was a pack and play,highchair, booster chair, bumpers for the beds, the kids just loved it. Enclosed pool was a big highlight. The kids loved swimming in a nice warm enclosure and we adults enjoy the outdoor hot tub which was the perfect temperature. We spent our afternoons at the kids corner park, which was directly across from Lake Michigan. It was a great way to spend time outdoors. South Haven is a charming town and it was nice and quiet in the winter time. This beautiful House offered us a great time to spend with family, playing games, watching movies, and even an outdoor fire with some s’mores.Thanks for sharing your home with us. We will definitely be back.
