We stayed at the Old Harbor Inn 5/17-5/19 and had a wonderful time in South Haven. It's a lovely small town with all kinds of things to do. But we really enjoyed the Inn. Our suite (room 18) was great and very large. Even though the couch in the back of the suite was one of those big puffy things... More

We have stayed here a few times. Definitely needs to be upgraded. Old style tv's, noises room heater and tub jet control not working but the rooms are huge in a lovely location. The bed was large and firm and it was a romantic setting. Would recommend.

We loved our mini vacation in South Haven. Yes, Harbor Inn is a little out of date, but the staff wsa fantastic and we weren't in the room much anyways. It is close to the bar, but we couldn't hear any of the music from our room. Walking distance to everything!

We stayed at the Old Harbor Inn in late August, 2012. Having read several of the reviews, I pretty much knew what to expect. It is an older, more rustic property. The carpeting needs to be replaced throughout. Our room was very big and had been recently renovated (except for the carpet). The beds were very comfortable and we had... More

My sister and I took our mother on an overnight trip to South Haven. Considering there wasn't much on the waterfront (accomodations) and looking at comments before we went we pretty much got what we were expecting. The hotel is very old and dirty. I will say the room was very large including a living room, small kitchen, and bedroom.... More

I stayed here for two nights with my friends, we had two rooms and they were wonderful! The beds are comfortable and the view of the river and South Haven is amazing. However, when we arrived at the hotel the front desk lady would not even stand up and point us in the right direction after giving us the keys,... More

What a perfect place to stay. My wife and I rode our bikes from Kalamazoo and were totally worn out when we arrived. They had a place to store our bikes and trailors. We were checked in quickly and found ourselves in a gorgeous room looking out our private balcony on the harbor, also a big window over the cute... More
