There is a full bathroom on this level with a shower and also a laundry room. You can exit this level out to the yard and fire pit area as well.

The outdoor spaces are favorites for guests in the warmer seasons. On the front of the house there is a large deck with seating for at least 6. There is a side yard where you will find a fire pit with chairs as well as a non private hot/cold outdoor shower.

Perfect place for a Michigan beach vacation

This was our first trip away with the newborn and to Western Michigan and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the property and location. The quiet neighborhood and location to beaches/town just can’t be beat. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Looking forward to coming back for years to come!

Casa de Sarno

We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend stay at Casa de Sarno. It is very spacious with a fantastic deck. The location is great, as we love to walk all of Sourh Haven. It was probably larger than we needed so would be great for a multi family stay. Thanks for the hospitality. We love our yearly trip to SoHa.

Great Large Summer Rental

Had a family vacation in South Haven with our adult children and their families. We all loved the large outdoor porch. There was plenty of room to be together or apart. The house was clean, comfortable and was equipped with all the amenities a family needs. The large open family room and kitchen was surrounded by screened and glass door walls and you could exit onto a wooden wrap around back porch. Location was great; close to beaches and downtown. Bathroom and shower on each level. A very relaxing family vacation!

Great Family Vacation

We had 8 adults and 4 children ranging in age from 4 month to 5 years old. The location of the home is great and the set up in the house was very accommodating. There are two very nice gathering spaces on the porches and the home is very well equipped. The ability to walk to the beaches and into the downtown area make it fun for everyone. We would love to return again next summer.

Perfect location

Perfect location with a short walking distance to the beach, as well as biking distance to downtown, multiple parks, splash pad, pickleball courts, and Meijer. Bedroom on main level was a little smaller than expected. Our family (8 adults, 3 year olf, 2 year olf, and two 1 year olds) had a great vacation here!

Great house

Our stay at Casa de Sarno was great! Everything in the house was labeled so we knew where to find anything we needed. The outdoor deck was so nice to hang out on as well as the front porch. Very short walk to Oak Beach and close to downtown as well; lovely neighborhood.

Perfect summer vacation

This place was exactly what our family needed! It is only a couple blocks from nice small beaches and a little bit longer walk to downtown shops and the bigger beaches. The house was very clean and fully stocked with supplies that we were happy to have. The porch and back deck was so nice to sit and talk on. Kudos to the housekeeper, we were really impressed with cleanliness! Highly recommend to parties of 10.

Perfection!

Everything about this property, the process, the location, & the host was absolutely perfect! The pictures did not do justice. That front porch is BIG and cozy. We used it all day long! Oak St Beach was an easy 3 minute walk. Also an easy walk to downtown South Haven. And our hostess Sally gave us so much helpful, useful information ahead of time we were all set when we arrived. Our gang of 11 gives Casa de Sarno 22 thumbs up! We Recommend!

End of summer stay

My friends and I stayed here for a long weekend to enjoy the last week of summer before the fall transition. The home was exactly as in the description- large space, plenty of rooms, sleeping areas, bathrooms, and it was super close to the beach. The outdoor seating area was also very nice and convenient! We hope to potentially stay here again in the future!

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything felt clean and well taken care of. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. I loved the full spice cabinet. The home was large enough to spread out and feel like everyone had their own space. The location was perfect, very walkable to both downtown and multiple beaches. The only downfall for me was my understanding of the one main floor bedroom. By the photos it looked it like a regular double or queen bed, but it was a trundle sort of bed. We had three sets of adults, and I kind of felt that room was photographed differently in the listing, making it look like a normal room. The room would be ok for teens or kids, but I did feel guilty that one of our Adult couples had to stay in that room. The other two bedrooms were very nice, spacious, bright, and comfortable. The linens and towels provided were excellent, with plenty of extra blankets and pillows if needed. Overall a very nice stay, in a very nicely maintained, quiet neighborhood. Great for families.
