This gorgeous gem, Hart’s Haven, can sleep up to 12 people in pure unbridled comfort with its spacious 5-bedrooms. Every room gives the feeling of being “Home.” Guests often reflect and comment that the familiarity of this home brings about memories of their childhood – Although we’re pretty sure Grandmother’s house never had such modern touches as those found within Hart’s Haven. This home is a beautiful blend of the original interior and a contemporary modernization - A juxtaposition that infuses each space with an energy and charm that’s as nostalgic as it is refreshingly new.

Imagine waking up in one of the cozy bedrooms, where soft linens and gentle lighting set the scene for a day filled with both quiet reflection and outdoor adventure. In the kitchen, while the appliances retain a timeless, classic look, it’s the generous counter space that truly steals the show. Here, you can spread out ingredients to recreate cherished family recipes, chat over a leisurely breakfast, or even craft a delicious snack while enjoying the kitchen’s warm, inviting ambiance.

Adjacent to this culinary haven is the dining room - A space where every meal transforms into a celebration of time well spent together. Whether you’re sharing hearty laughs over a sumptuous dinner or enjoying a simple cup of tea in reflective solitude, the room’s welcoming atmosphere makes every bite and every moment feel like a cherished memory in the making.

The two distinct living rooms cater to every mood. The main level living room offers a tranquil retreat for quiet movie nights or reading sessions, while the lower level living room bursts with lively energy, perfect for engaging conversations, spirited board games, or gathering around a coffee table for a competitive card game session that sparks laughter and friendly banter.

Step outside into the inviting outdoor area, where a well-designed fireplace offers a warm focal point as the evening sets in. Envision evenings spent gathered around the fire, sharing stories, clinking glasses, and creating memories that stretch long into the night.

The positive energy in every corner radiates a feeling of unconditional love—making your heart sigh and your subconscious drift back to those familiar, cherished moments of childhood. It’s this blend of nostalgia and modern comfort that transforms Hart’s Haven into the ultimate “Home away from Home,” inviting you to live, laugh, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Hart’s Haven is located in walking distance to just about everything that makes South Haven so attractive and loved. The golden sands of South Beach and the deep blues and greens of Lake Michigan are but a 5-minute walk away. There is the famous Blue Stairs Access near Kids Corner Park (a fabulous playground for kids of any age with picnic tables and barbecue grills) to the south, and to the north there is Van Buren St. Overlook and beach access. The Overlook is one of the best spots in South Haven to watch the sunset, the lighthouse, the beach and all the magnificent colors of Mother Nature as the sun crosses the horizon. It can be a breathtaking experience…especially when Friends Goodwill, South Haven’s very own Historic Tall Ship, unfurls her sails against the setting sun.

A 10-minute walk will put you directly into the heart of South Haven and all the amazing restaurants and locally owned businesses that make South Haven such a thriving Beach Community. There is the famous Clementine’s, owned by Al Rupert who is a native Entrepreneur that also owns Hawkshead Golf Course; which also features another one of Al’s incredible restaurants. The Restaurant at Hawkshead should be on every “Foodies” bucket list of things to do and explore in SoHa. Their Maple Leaf Farms Duck Breast and the Lake Superior White Fish are absolutely delicious! Taste, Tello’s, Maria’s, and the amazing New Park Gastro Pub are all samples of “Must Try” for anyone who loves gourmet foods!

Hart’s Haven is a perfect place for families and friends to gather and go out and explore South Haven, the Greater Blue Star Highway and all the places in between. There is usually too much to do when you come to South Haven, that you and your loved ones will have to come back a few times to explore everything.

Hart’s Haven should be, and can be, your Home Away from Home! Hart’s Haven is full of energy and it will accept no less from its guests. The beaches, the sun and all the fun you can crave is here in South Haven. Hart’s Haven will comfort you, nourish your soul and relax your mind. The beds and showers will caress your body and alleviate the stress from your daily grind in “Real Life.” What a priceless experience this can be - All you have to do is make the reservation and bring your A-game!

Hart’s Haven is guaranteed to make memories that will last a lifetime. Book your stay today to discover why this celebrated home is a fan-favorite in the Shores Family!

Our week in South Haven was perfect in every way. The house was laid out perfectly for multiage families. The back yard was perfect for reading in the afternoon, to a fire with some mores at night.

Our family loves South Haven. Some vacation in Florida in the spring. Florida is a long drive from Indiana. The family just smiles when they talk about the 3-hour drive to South Haven.

A small thing- the upstairs toilet (in the bathroom with the tub) did not flush well we had to hold the handle down for a long time. This didnt really bother anyone, but would be an easy fix :) We loved that it was an easy walk into town and to the beach It would be really great if you maybe had a few beach chairs that visitors could use (the kind that sit low to the sand)... not by any means a deal breaker- just other beach area rental homes have had them :) Overall it was a great house and a great stay for our family
