The location is great - easily walkable to the beach and downtown. Check-in was very easy. Everyone enjoyed the pool, fire pit, pool table and ping pong table. There were a lot of pool floats in the garage as well as sand toys and a beach wagon. The fenced in yard was perfect for the dogs.
The house was everything we wanted and more! Great location, plenty of room, every amenity we could have wanted. The pool was great and our entire group - from ages 4 to 75 had a wonderful time. Would definitely stay again.
This property was very comfortable for a big group. There is a great pool, several outdoor porches and a firepit, and a barn with a pool table. It is close to town and the lake. The rooms were comfortable. The six bedrooms upstairs all had fans as well as a/c and were nice and cool. I worried that an older home may not be cool upstairs but that was not the case. We had 14 people and with the four different shower/bathrooms it was no problem. Great time with all ages in our family.
This house is comfortable, warm and spacious. The location to downtown, parks and shoreline is perfect. Every bed was a welcome retreat. We will return to this house that accommodates 10+ adults and a toddler.
Great pool, out door fire pit area was very nice. Great location to walk to downtown and beach.
Only reason not a 5 is lack of tvs in several bedrooms, tvs very difficult to work, with no instructions.
We rented this home with 3 familiesâkids ranging 9-17. Had a wonderful stay. Perfect location with plenty of room to spread out. Kids loved basketball and hottub, parents loved fire pit. Thank you!!
We were a family of 13 celebrating an 80th birthday. The house accommodated us quite comfortably. We enjoyed that we could walk to the beach and downtown. There was plenty of thing to keep our young grandsons busy. The house was very clean, and the kitchen was well equipped.
Everyone in our group loved the house. Beyond the fact that the house was in pristine condition and included thoughtful conveniences, its amenities made our trip a pleasure. The hot tub and pool worked well, we grilled and played bocci on the lawn, and the patio lights were beautiful. Also, management was very helpful and attentive in ensuring a great stay. Thanks, and we hope to be back again soon!
The Ross House was a perfect destination for our family of 16 (10 adults and 6 children from ages 3 to 19) to meet from near and far! The house was so charming and easily accommodated us! The kitchen was well-equipped and the outdoor amenities exceeded all expectations!! The pool, hot tub, game room, fire pit and porches provided spots for endless activities for all members of the family. And, the location could not be more perfect -- easily walkable to the beach, the harbor, the lighthouse, multiple playgrounds as well as the quaint downtown shopping/dining area. There could not be a more perfect location to enjoy all that South Haven has to offer!
The location and neighborhood was so great, cleaning very good,
Bathrooms locks were broken and the hot spa was not working that was disappointed.
Need more update inside the house
Perfect House, Close to Everything But You Don't Need to Leave
We had such a great time at this house. Our extended family of 11 people went and we were so pleased with the Ross house. The pool was fantastic-the kids spent all their time in it. The hot tub was great. The house was amply stocked with pool floats, toys, games and everything you could need to make the stay comfortable. The kitchen was great and there were plenty of areas to eat inside and out. Our favorite part was making nightly fires in the firepit and sitting out until late. The house was located close to town and walking distance to the beach. It was the perfect place. We hope to be back.
Nice house, property managers could use improvement
The house was great - it is huge, has 7 bedrooms and lots of outdoor space. Our kids loved the basketball hoop and playing pool in the garage area, though the garage was full of a lot of pool supplies so it was pretty difficult to navigate - getting to the ping pong table was very difficult. The house was decently clean but we did find more than one left over sock under the beds so that was gross. My main issue was with the property management group. When we arrived there was some one in the drive because the hot tub was broken. He wasn't able to fix it so they sent someone out the next day. The maintenanc person they sent was planning on emptying the hot tub into the yard while we were there (I only found this out as I went outside and saw the hose from the tub into the yard). We asked them not to because we didn't want the yard to turn into a swamp and freeze over at night (we were with 4 kids and 2 dogs). He called the the management company to let them know of our concern and then he left. I then called to request a late check out (check out is 10 am) which I had previously called about but they told me to call back the day before leaving. There was no reservations for that day or the next day (I checked) but they denied my request because they had to fix the hot tub. Which I found a bit ridiculous given it was not our problem the hot tub was broken but it became our problem. Then on the day we were checking out, we were unpacking the house, it took a bit more time (we had 4 kids between 5 and 8 and two dogs) and we were about to head out around 10:30 when I got a call from the property managers saying the cleaning people had "driven by 3 times and were waiting for us to leave". We were clearly packing our cars and trying our best to get out, so I found this a bit distasteful. All and all the house was great and it was easy to access I just felt the property management company only cared about getting us in the house and not necessarily ever having us come back. They were more concerned about the next client then the current one.

We wanted a low key Fatherâs Day weekend get-away to spend with our dad. This house gave us that and then some. We not only had a beautiful house to stay in, we also had a great place to enjoy ourselves and have that family bonding we hadnât had in years. My family appreciated everything this house had to offer.. pool, ping-pong table, pool table, etc. Thank you to the staff who have been more than helpful and accommodating to us.
We couldn't all be together for Thanksgiving so wanted a central location to gather and play games and be together. This spacious house with many bedrooms was perfect.
