The Space:

Just a stone’s skip from the glimmering shores of Lake Michigan, The OAR-Chard House is where lake days, lemonade skies, and firefly-lit nights come together in one delightful little storybook escape. Nestled near the water’s edge, this home offers front-row access to everything that makes South Haven a summertime wonderland.



Oar-Chard House is a 4-bedroom family beach retreat in Miami Park with private tram access to Lake Michigan and a one-of-a-kind custom swing dining table that turns dinner into an experience. Spend your days on the sandy shoreline and your evenings gathered under the trees, swinging gently at the table with lemonade, wine, or s’mores by the fire pit. This home blends classic lake-house comfort with playful outdoor living, making it an easy choice for families who want both convenience and character.



Hop aboard the neighborhood tram and ride down the bluff to the private community beach. Swim, explore, or stay for sunset over Lake Michigan before heading back up to relax. Located just minutes from downtown South Haven, wineries, breweries, and farm markets, you’re close to everything while still tucked into the peaceful, tree-lined setting of Miami Park.



Inside, the home features hardwood floors, a bright living room with fireplace, and a fully equipped kitchen with granite counters and island seating—perfect for pancake breakfasts or casual family dinners. The layout offers space for everyone to unwind comfortably, with inviting bedrooms designed for both grown-up relaxation and kid-friendly sleepovers.



The backyard is where Oar-Chard House truly stands out. The custom-built swing dining table creates a memorable gathering space, while the fire pit with Adirondack chairs, playset, yard games, screened-in porch, and fully enclosed outdoor shower round out a setting designed for long summer days and even longer summer nights.



The Neighborhood:

Miami Park is a lakefront neighborhood perched on a bluff along Lake Michigan, north of downtown South Haven. The association maintains a stairway and motorized tram (elevator) from the top of the bluff down to the shoreline. With gravel roads, deer and turkey this is a wonderful blend of being remote while featuring beautiful homes. With access to the shoreline, stunning sunsets from the bluff and a lovely drive along Blue Star highway to South Haven or Saugatuck, this is a fantastic location for your home base during your visit.
