Scott's Place - Close to South Beach and Kid's Corner
Scott's Place is a nice home located on 2.5 acres in a private setting with plenty of room. Enjoy the outdoors while grilling and eating dinner on the deck overlooking a spacious backyard. Start a fire in the fire pit and roast marshmallows. It's a great place to sit back and relax.
The house is located one block from a bluff overlooking a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan with the South Pier in the background. We're 3/4 of a mile down the road from the South Beach and Kids Corner and South Haven is a great place for dining, shopping and outdoor fun along the lakeshore.

We really enjoyed our time at the house and in South Haven. We especially liked the fire pit, proximity to beach and how tidy the cottage was. The garden bed out front and area beneath the deck is pretty overgrown. Loved coffee and drinks on the deck though!

The house is very clean, cute and comfortable. Some touch up painting on the ceiling would go along way, bur just don't look up😉 We enjoyed our stay. Also, make sure to walk the one block for a wonderful overlook of the lake.

Disappointing Stay
We booked another home for the week of the 4th, but that owner cancelled and we thought we got lucky finding this place at the rate it was (still expensive, but nothing like other properties). However, I wouldn't stay here again and I wouldn't recommend it to friends.
The pros: It was a bit further from everything than we realized, but we are from Chicago so the walking didn't bother us, and majority of the walk is scenic anyway. The backyard is huge and great for exploring with kids (although be mindful of the poison ivy). Deck is nice to sit on.
The cons: The house sits on a busier road so no front porch/yard hanging out is possible. The home smelled like cigarettes (maybe from prior renters), and in general felt unclean, because it looked unclean. Furniture is old, stained, and uncomfortable to the point of it hurting our backs to sit on. Window units for AC are only in front and back room so the bedrooms got HOT. My kids were up each night drenched in sweat. Luckily, we brought a fan. Our biggest issue was the bugs. It was unreal. Spiders, fruit flies, roaches in the kitchen, and wasps (yes, wasps). All the windows and doors are in dire need of resealing. We did our best to block the gaps and cracks between the frames and doors/windows with pillows but it was an ongoing battle - to the point of my kids (2 and 5) getting upset. We came very close to leaving early because of the bugs but decided to push through. Doors only have door handle locks - they need deadbolts.

Great location
Great location. Upon checkin we had only 1-1/2 rolls of toilet paper for 6 people staying 4 days. This forced us to go shopping almost immediately, which took up time better used enjoying family. The chairs by the fire pit were dirty and moldy making them unusable. The microfiber towels have an unpleasant feel. Overall the cottage seemed run down and in need of maintenance.

Not a bad place, but just not for us
The good: You can hear the lake from the property. The backyard is very pretty. The house was quite clean. The beds were comfortable. The back room and deck were quite lovely. Scott was responsive.
The not so good: It's a solid 30-minute walk at a brisk pace to downtown. Quite a bit farther down Monroe Blvd than we realized when booking. It was a bit light on the little things, like there wasn't a hair dryer. The towels and washcloths were synthetic fiber, maybe microfiber? They don't move easily across wet skin. And we had a bat in the house at 2 a.m. Not just a little fruit bat, either. A big brown bat with a wingspan of about a foot that was very freaked out and flying everywhere, high, low, at your head.... We managed to shoo it outside and I let Scott know. He said he will be looking into it. I suspect it came from the basement, as the house is pretty solid, but the basement has lots of spots bats might like, and there's a large gap in the door to the basement. We stuffed a towel in the gap after the bat incident just in case he had friends living down there. Also, WiFi can be dodgy, especially if there's a sudden crush of visitors in town, which there was.
Scott was nice and there are good things about the house, but overall this property just wasn't for us.

Nice place
The house was a good deal, about a block from the lake and close to the retail and restaurant area. We enjoyed our stay and made use of the fire pit after scrounging up some wood from the woods adjacent to the yard. Beds were comfy, enjoyed watching lots of deer wandering through the yard. November weather precluded our hanging out on the deck, but it’s a nice set up.
