Bring your boats, jetskis, and LARGE family - so much space inside and out

This 5 bedroom 6 bathroom, 2800 sq ft house is just the perfect place for a large or multi family get away. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom. This unique home has so much to be desired and we did not leave anything out. A new custom kitchen was installed May 2017 along with all brand new furnishings including bedrooms, mattress, TV, dressers, all appliances, washer/dryer and more. The house offers games, books, toys, wifi and more to keep your family entertained. Please play and have fun. The house includes all bedding, towels and even a few extra's to make sure your stay is the best ever. Forget something- don't worry, we know it happens which is why we hope you enjoy your welcome home basket which contains many of the "little things." Be the first to book and stay at this amazing home. The house is best known to the locals as the "church" because it was once the local church which was converted into a one of a kind "retreat" that we call The Haven. The property is located in the center of town, walk to beach, restaurants, shopping, amusement park and more. Lets not forget about the fishing and hunting.. The Turning Stone casino is a short drive away as well as golf and other amenities. In the winter we welcome ice fishing groups along with snow mobile groups. The driveway can hold multiple cars and sleds as we are on a double lot. The laundry room boasts large counters to dry your equipment, helmets and gear. We are excited to have you and look forward to hearing from you.

Good fit for what we needed. There were a couple of things I had to message the host about, but they responded quickly and worked to resolve the issue. We were the first stay of the year, so when heaters and such started to turn on there were quite a few dead spiders that came floating out but nothing extreme. We would stay here again for sure if we are in the area.

Amazingly large, ample space for all.

Our family group of nine had a lovely stay at the Haven. Rhonda is a very responsive host and the property had something for everyone. Easy walk to beach and town, stay and play or simply relax. Everyone loved having their own bathroom. Highly recommend!

Beach Stay

The Haven is a beautiful and spacious rental. We loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom plus a community bathroom as well. The Haven came stocked with all the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom supplies one may need, which was great! Plenty of space for parking and a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and shops. Overall, a great place to stay!
