Short little getaway
We wanted something that was walking distance to downtown and the lake. This property gave both. We were able to walk to different parts of the lake from this property and easy walking to the main downtown/ Martine Museum. There is a full kitchen with most supplies. The layout of the place was nice as well. The bridge that goes over the Black River is right outside and it didn’t affect our sleeping. I even brought ear plugs just incase and never used them. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. We want to come back during the summer.

Charming Condo; Noise Level was Horrible
We loved the condo! The interior was beautifully decorated. The bed was very comfy. The location was great as we did not have to drive anywhere. There were several negatives, however. We arrived late at night. There was no clear, visible signage directing us to the main entrance. When we accessed the condo there was supposed to be parking passes in the room. The parking passes were not there. Luckily, there was ample street parking. Lastly, the windows in the unit are horrible! We actually thought the windows were open because the noise from the street, the draw bridge whistles, from people talking below, was so loud and clear. We slept horribly Friday night. A fan in the unit might have helped to drown out the noise.

Perfect condo for weekend getaway
Great location between downtown, the north side beaches, park, and the harbor. Nice condo with big windows and updated finishes. The patio with a view of the harbor is spectacular. Perfect for morning coffe or drinks in the evening. We definitely are going to try to book this property again.

South Haven Love
We stayed at this property in June. We loved the location and view. It’s not super quiet in the evening as Captain Lou’s and the drawbridge are close, but that’s part of what we loved. You feel part of the action even if you’re not there. I’d recommend this property and would be eager to return.

Room #8 by the draw bridge!
The property was nice, but room #8 could use some updated windows. We could hear everything and everybody that came pass the property. Not to mention the draw bridge bells as the fishing boats head out at the crack of dawn. Only other words of advice to management would be make sure there is toiletries, and plenty of wash clothes/towels for guests staying more than one night. This is not to bad review, we enjoyed our stay. These are just a couple of things that could have made it better!

Modern but not Convenient for Families
The place is very modern and nicely decorated. It is a little bit of a hike to the beach if you’re bringing all of your beach supplies so you’ll likely be driving. The heated floors in the bathroom is nice for sand management. We would have loved a vacuum instead of a broom for sweeping. We would also have love some extra hooks or some space to hang wet towels and swimsuits. Also the washer and dryer are coin operated and there was no detergent. There is no change machine so you have to find a way to get change. Also, you only get one set of towels for your entire stay…. A blanket for the extra bed needed to be washed. All in all it’s a great place to stay for a couple. A little small for a family.

Located right in the heart of the downtown area. Quick walk to the beach and parks. Even quicker walk to restaurants and bars. Just be wary of people being loud leaving the bars on busy weekends. We were so tired that we barely noticed though.
