This unit is between the road and shops. There is also a restaurant/bar and a winery next to it which was loud Friday & Saturday evenings until 1 or 2 in the morning. This unit is on the end of the building and right next to the walkway so people coming and going to these venues were able to be heard also well into the early morning hours. The room and staff were excellent but I would not choose this unit with the spa tube again. We have stayed in other rooms in other buildings that did not have this problem.

Location was great. Room was nice but a bit run down. Unfortunately the rooms below us smoked on the balcony so you couldn’t sit outside without smelling smoke.
The location is ideal for visiting South Haven, park and walk experience. Loved all the views from around the building and access to great food/service. The staff at Old Harbor Inn was spectacular from moment of arrival to departure. Tracy was our first interaction and a purely delightful person throughout our stay. The cleaning and property management staff was also very good. We enjoyed our first stay at Old Harbor tremendously.
Perfect location. You can walk to the beach and restaurants from your room. My room was spotless and comfortable. I stayed in room 5.

Our unit was extremely well maintained. The room was large, well lit, contained a kitchen area and a small dinette table. It also had a love seat and television. Two good sized windows.
The bathroom was a good size and had plenty of towels.
We would recommend it.
Great place to stay. We stayed on the harbor side, which I enjoyed. I liked being connected to the downtown area and could also walk to the beach. The people at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. The only suggestion to make it a little better would be to ensure the patio area is clear of spider webs and possibly repaint the small tables on the deck.
We have never stayed here before but we will again! The room was clean and spacious and quiet. However, we went in April. 🤗 During the summer I'm sure it's a different story. Tons of shops and dining within walking distance (even right below us) There was a boardwalk that went around the Inn that you could stand at and watch the harbor. The beach was close, as was the lighthouse. It was a perfect little getaway for us!!
