Vacation rentals with beach access in Van Buren County

Another wonderful weekend getaway at Stephaney's place. We love fishing off the pier, relaxing on the porch with the beautiful view of the lake, and the coziness of the cottage. Our pup is so happy to have room to run and swim. Great breweries and restaurants in neighboring towns. A highlight of our summer.

Colleen was on-point, friendly, and communicated every detail we needed to check in and when we checked out. The place was beautiful, modern appliances, clean, TV's everywhere, three bedrooms, and very firm mattresses, which suited me perfectly. Place was immaculate. Though located near the river in a somewhat industrial area, it's a nice 15 minute walk to the lake, and less to the restaurants and stores. Will come back!

My two girlfriends and I stayed here for two nights and it has the most beautiful view of Lake Michigan! We arrived later in the evening and were so thankful that our host left us with restaurant menus and recommendations, we loved the pizza. Place was clean and very well stocked with linens and even coffee and some water in the fridge. The beach is a steep staircase away (it was a bit rough, and my legs hurt, but it’s worth the trek). Also thank you sooo much for letting us use your beach chairs! We stayed on the beach from sunrise to sunset. It was magical and the views are to die for! Our only complaint would be the lack of communication that the host would be staying on site during the same weekend as us. The listing brags about a private beach and yet at one point the hosts wife appeared 15-20 feet sitting directly behind us reading a book. We felt like teenagers being watched by our mother. We decided to take a walk, and when we came back she was gone, but it was weird.

Had a great stay! Would recommend to anyone headed to Benton Harbor!

Great place for a weekend getaway. Very nice loft in a great location on the edge of downtown South Haven. Plenty of space with a very comfortable living room. Was pretty much perfect for our stay.

Upon arrival, there was some kind of misunderstanding with the cleaning people and it looked like our unit was not cleaned prior to arriving. We arrived pretty late but Michael responded very fast to my message and was able to get this taken care of right away for us. He was very accommodating and helpful. He sent multiple messages prior to the arrival date with helpful instructions on entering the unit and parking. The space itself was great and perfect for two people. Walking distance from the little downtown area and the river. We enjoyed our time in South Haven and would stay here again if we ever visited again!

I booked Louie’s place for a work trip to be near a local wedding venue where we were setting up & taking down wedding flowers & Louie was very responsive & helpful with questions about parking our truck & any information we needed. The place is surprisingly spacious & very comfortable. The couches in the living room were very cozy! The place was also very clean & easy to get into. The front bedroom is very loud at night but that’s also been noted in past reviews & we were expecting that. It was very easy to get to food & beverage options are easy to find. We LOVED the coffee shop & restaurant inside The Market in St. Joseph (a 4 minute drive from the apartment). I would definitely book this place again!

We had a great stay. We appreciated having a thermostat to control the temperature in the unit. The setting is beautiful and the neighborhood was quiet. It was just a short walk to downtown. The host was so helpful and responsive and made it a really good stay.

Great home with all the amenities, along with a great location across the street from the lake. We will certainly be looking to stay here again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay in Benton Harbor. Our kids loved taking our small dog out for walks and seeing the beach and sunsets nearby. We had a great time on our vacation which was not far from great locations like St. Joe’s, Holland and even Grand Rapids. We highly recommend Ethan’s Air B and B and look forward to coming back in the summer.

Very nice stay in South Haven. This home is about a 10 minute walk to downtown, and 20 minutes to South Beach. Beautiful home, very clean, in good condition. We were a group of 8 adults and there were plenty of cups, plates, towels, etc., on site. Nice quiet neighborhood with well-kept-up homes. Host communicated everything needed well in advance, check in was a breeze, and house instructions left in multiple places. Meijer is close by which was great for picking up food and snacks. The only slight downside is although the home has AC, it was hard to cool the upstairs, which meant the downstairs was quite cold for the guests sleeping down there. A small note in an otherwise excellent stay, we would definitely stay there again!

Kristine was an amazing host and so accommodating. We unfortunately were in town for a funeral and were inundated with a lot of moving parts and Kristine was understanding the whole time. Her home was exactly what we needed during a difficult time. It was warm, inviting and most of all clean. It also was a safe space to house three kids under the age of 4 - which is always a concern for me. I would recommend this home to anyone with children or who simply wants a home away from home!

This was by far one of the top locations I’ve stayed along lake MI. As soon as we pulled up to the house, we felt at home. Walking through the door, solidified and exemplified these feelings as we saw the gorgeous views through the windows and the beautiful layout of the house. Everything was so thoughtfully laid out and the amenities were the best we’ve ever had (softest towels and blankets)! The outdoor setup was again superb and allowed you to appreciate the views and beauty. Finally, the beach had soooo many cool rocks and soft sand. Thank you for sharing this space!

Suzie and Michael’s place is a must save on your list! It’s gorgeous with the most peaceful neighborhood overlooking the bluff at the end of the street! Don’t hesitate on this one!

We had a great long weekend stay at Sarah’s house, she was very responsive and helpful. The house is clean and comfortable and we had everything we needed. We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and being a short drive from restaurants.

We came in for a wedding and stayed here with three couples. The house was a perfect spot for us being close to both the venue and very easy to get downtown. The house itself feels very new and has plenty of room for all. The first floor is also a great area to hang out. We didn’t take advantage of the amenities in the neighborhood like the pool but they are easily walkable and available. Matt is also very proactive and responsive. We had a couple questions when we first arrived and had feedback and what we needed very quickly after. If we come back to South Haven we will definitely be looking to see if this is available!

Great spot

Enjoyed our stay! Loved being to walk to the beach and downtown.

My husband & I rented this gem for a week. The condo is spotless, kitchen has many amenities, tastefully decorated, very comfortable and we loved it! We loved being right on the water/ beach and close to town. Highly recommend this adorable condo.

The place is super cute and cozy, the bed is comfy and the area is quiet and peaceful. I felt safe and right at home as I was here for an extended stay! I 100% recommend!

We loved our stay! Having everything ready and available so we could just show up and enjoy our vacation was a true blessing for this single mom traveling with 2 small children! Thank you we will be booking again!! The 4th of July was a spectacular time to visit!!

We have stayed at Nicole's for the past 3 years! This condo is very clean, well-stocked of any kitchen appliances or tools you would need. There is lots of space for family and even includes a nice porch. The pool and hot tub are great, and Lake Michigan is right across the street. There are lots of restaurants within walking distance. We highly recommend this to anyone wanting to visit South Haven! Cheryl

We absolutely loved this Airbnb! We hope to come stay here every year! It was beautiful, clean, organized, and comfortable. Paula went to extra measures to make us feel welcome with coffee pods, little snacks, shampoos, and lotions. Paula had little notes with instructions throughout the house to help with different house features that might be a challenge Which was so helpful! Paula was also extremely kind and understanding! We had to cut our trip short by one day due to a family death and she was very supportive and refunded us for that one day without any issues!

Perfect place for families with small kids and the beds were SO comfy. We have a 5 yr old , 3 yr old and 2 month old baby and the older kids were thrilled with the pool, all the games, toys and puzzles and my infant had a crib, infant tub, pack n play and baby toys. You truly don’t need to bring anything, we saw there were also wagons, highchair, kid plates, cups and silverware, sand toys and beach chairs if you go visit during the warmer months. Everything is very well marked so you can find everything and anything you may need. We went in March for spring break and spent the cold rainy days at the buildings indoor pool and hot tub. In case you’re considering coming to south haven in the off season, do it! A lot of restaurants in town are open as are the nearby wineries, movies, arcade and bowling alley.
