We loved the spaciousness of the home - it worked well for our family's needs. It was close enough to the beach to walk so we could come and go without always driving. We would definitely stay there again!
The house was clean and in a great location, close to town! What really stood out were all of the little things the host provided, like stocked spices, dish soap, trash bags and plastic baggies in the kitchen, shampoo and body wash in all bathrooms, and boxes of tissues. The host’s communication was also prompt, helpful, and friendly. We highly recommend this place for a wonderful get away!!
This was a last minute friends weekend and we were fortunate to find this beautiful home for our “senior” women’s group. The photos accurately show the beautifully appointed home. It was exceptionally clean (and I’m germ phobic), much space for all of us to enjoy, deck and hot tub were a plus. Proximity to South Haven Beach was also a plus. Owner could not be more accommodating and responsive. Memorable weekend. Thank you.
Thank you for opening your beautiful home to us! We had a great time!

Perfect for a large group
Our group of 4 couples with kids very much enjoyed our stay at Maple Beach Cottage. The house was very well appointed, including lovely contemporary furniture as well as small details such as pet food bowls and stain remover spray for laundry. Loved the second floor living room with coffee bar. Plenty of room for all to enjoy. Location cannot be beat. Would not hesitate to stay again!
Our group included three kids under 8 years old and all of the extras like stroller, pack-n-play, high chair, and booster seat were a huge help! Living space, bedrooms, and bathrooms were all lovely. Great location to the beach. Excellent communication with owner. Overall great stay. Book it!!

Amazing South Beach family-friendly house
Maple Cottage is ideally situated near South Beach—lovely, picturesque neighborhood setting. So close to wonderful playground and the beach. The house was very clean on checkin with everything a large family could need—toy area, bathroom amenities, beach toys and strollers/wagon. MJ is incredibly responsive to requests and was so nice to leave birthday gifts/decorations for family birthdays. Amazing!!

Wonderful South Haven Stay!
We had a wonderful long-weekend staying at Maple Beach Cottage! The house was perfectly located to walk to the beach and even possible to walk downtown (10-15min) if you don’t want the hassle of driving. The house was well-decorated and there were plenty of spaces for sleeping and hanging out. Our host provided helpful info before check in, including an update that one of the futons had been moved which really helped us plan sleeping arrangements for our large group. She was responsive the entire stay and made everything great! We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, great house
The house was clean, comfortable and big enough for our 11 people. It was nice that almost all bedrooms had private bathroom. The separate sitting areas were nice. We enjoyed the big dining table for meals and games. The kitchen was well stocked, and we cooked several meals there. The outdoor area was nice, and the big umbrella was used on sunny days. We used the hot tub. The location was walking distance to the beach and walking distance to downtown. The multiple parking spaces and use of garage were nice too. Overall, great house.
