Fennville, Michigan
You’re planning one of those special family get-togethers that all will talk about and remember happily for years. You need a private and safe place where multiple generations of your family can gather - perhaps to celebrate a special occasion - a landmark birthday or anniversary. Your large family requires a property roomy enough that family members can both gather together and also find privacy.

VIRUS CONCERNS: We recognize that all parents and grandparents are concerned about doing everything they can to protect the health of their families. We feel the same way and do everything we can to give you confidence that your family’s health is protected at North Haven Family Retreat. Here are the details.

CANCELLATION & TRAVEL PROTECTION POLICIES: We do not offer refunds for cancelled reservations.

In addition, if you do have to cancel for any reason, we will use our best effort to rebook your dates with another family to recover any uninsured loss of your investment.
Our professional hospitality staff is just a few minutes away and can be available on short notice for anything we can do to make your stay more comfortable or fun.

I selected this home based off its location and size for a work retreat/team meeting. The home was clean, well lit and well stocked. The kitchen had 2 or more of everything! The grounds and additional buildings were amazing and great for those that like to get away or stay up later and not wake the rest of the house. I would stay here over and over again! Host was very responsive and professional.
We had a great family weekend at the house for Thanksgiving! The house was clean and there was plenty of room for everyone. We felt at home all weekend. The pictures don't do it justice! The pool house was great for the kids and adults to relax in the hot tub. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a big Thanksgiving meal and then all sit together at the dining room table. The house was equipped with plenty of smart TV's and we were able to listen to music through them as well. The caretaker cottage was also a nice surprise with a little living room and small kitchen. The general store on the corner is great if you forget something. We were also close to Saugatuck to go shopping and get dinner one night and visited Waypost Brewing down the street for a beer tasting. We highly recommend this house to a big group looking to spend some quality time together!
Very nice home away from home feel. We all enjoyed our stay and all the amenities offered.
Stayed here with several family members and friends. The property has so much space for everyone to have comfortable sleeping arrangements. The location is perfect and close to several wineries which we ventured to. We loved the long dining room table, beautiful kitchen and pool area. We had an amazing time! Thank you to Michael and his staff, they made this weekend easy!
23 women, no issues. This place might be magic :) good location, good beds, good times.
We hosted an intimate wedding weekend with a total of 28 adults at Michael's home. The property was perfect for our special celebration! The back deck, pool, hot tub, fire pit, living rooms, and beautiful dining room were exactly what we hoped for. The home was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Michael was very responsive during our stay. We were so happy with our decision to book with Michael!
I booked this property last minute because my 4 siblings and I were all in town at the same time with spouses/children. The compound could accommodate all of us x 2. Spacious, clean, and stylish. We had a wonderful long weekend. The kids didn’t want to leave. They had so much room to run and play. The pool and the hot tub were a huge hit. We were close to parks and beaches. By far one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. We were blown away. Michael was overly gracious to accommodate my requests. Looking forward to booking this property again in the future.
It was a great property for our large family, enough rooms, bathrooms, yard, and amenities for our group of 23. It was close to plenty of activities and the beaches. Michael was a great host and kept contact as needed during the week. Would defiantly book again, highly recommend.
Four generations extended family of 29 stayed here and thoroughly enjoyed the property. Recently remodeled meant that most everything was new and clean. Did multiple excursions both as a large group and smaller groups to the numerous local sights and activities ending up each night together for a swim in the pool and /or bonfire! Great option for a large gathering!
We stayed at this wonderful family compound over the 4th of July and it was PERFECT! We have a large family that ranges from 70 years old to a newborn and this property could not be better for everyone. The house is conveniently located between South Haven and Saugatuck if you want to go into town or the beach. The house is AMAZING, tons of room for large families and the kitchen is a wonderful for cooking meals!! The indoor pool was fantastic, the kids spent everyday swimming. The outdoor space is great for family games and the fire pit was a great place for our family to end every night. Michael the owner was wonderful and always available to assist you with anything you needed. We highly recommend this wonderful family compound for making wonderful memories year after year we will definitely come back!!! Charlie Reilly
We had a group of about 25 family members from across the US and overseas, and there was plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was wonderfully equipped for cooking for that many people. We also enjoyed the outdoor fire pit. It's just a short drive to Saugatuck/Douglas, dunes, beaches, antique shops and wineries.
The Family Compound was a perfect place to get together with my friends and family. We had over twenty people stay at this property, and we never felt crowded. The house was in great condition, the pool was beautiful, and the property had all of the amenities needed for a long weekend of friends and family. Would definitely stay here again. The property owner was communicative and kind. Thanks for the great stay!!
