The home was large and easily accommodated our family of 12. It was very private since it was nestled among the trees. We enjoyed the fire pit and the hot tub. We took advantage of multiple Michigan beaches. The kitchen was especially big, and it allowed for awesome family dinners when we ate there. It made for a memorable vacation experience for our family.
we will definitely go again. The house was beautifully hidden. Private was wonderful. 360 views. It was very spacious. The showers were awesome. We will definitely be returning guest.
The spacious kitchen and seating area was great for our large group. The windows make it feel like you’re in the woods with all the conveniences of home. Would stay again!
Pros: large house with plenty of space for our group of 9. Kitchen was well stocked, and was very quick access to Hagar Beach, 3 min drive. Cons: house was filthy at least a half inch of dust on all ceiling fans, light fixtures, and cold air return vents. Had a couple stained pillows on the beds with NO pillow cases on them. Had to kill a minimum of 50 black flies each of the 1st 2 days we were there. 3rd and 4th day it dwindled down to maybe 10 per day. Contacted host about filth and flies was told she will contact the cleaning service and that we could spray for flies if we wanted. Stated she was not aware of the fly issue before this. Also wooden floor throughout living room and kitchen felt grimy and when wiped with a wet paper towel it came up pure black. Obviously cleaning is not a priority at this house. Which is too bad because if it had been clean we would have rated it a 5.
Such a great place!! Our son was ready to live there forever and my husband wants the griddle. The views could not be appreciated with our late arrival but was so what we needed the next morning. Owners were great! Directions they provided answered all.
We enjoyed our stay! The house was spacious and a great place to gather with family. Kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked, and communication from the host was clear and timely. There are a few minor updates that would make the house even better (some loose tiles, a broken toilet handle, etc.), but nothing that impacted our overall experience.
Had a great stay. Enjoyable walk to beach and play area. Property had plenty of room for everyone to spread out and share comfortably. Perfect, relaxing holiday.

The property had many nice features the pictures reflected the nice qualities of the home. We were not able to open ft door with the code. When we reached out to the owner she was said she was busy and try another code. The glass on the ft door was not clean. So first impressions were not good. We cleaned some of the surfaces ourselves. After that it was good. Kitchen was great for cooking. Hot tub was nice and hot. Bathrooms were clean. Bedrooms were nice. Lots of room at this property. Showeres downstairs were just cold water. Beautiful views out of the windows looking into the woods. If alittle more care on cleaning surfaces and glass and more help from the owner it would of been 5 star. I hope my suggestions help. Its a walk to the beach but very clean nice beach and park. We enjoyed our stay.
We had such a great time!!! The house is so pleasant to hang out in. The main rooms are surrounded with windows. It almost feels like you’re in a treehouse. I would definitely stay here again even though it could use a little freshening up .
This is such a gorgeous , relaxing place to be especially for the holidays. We disconnected from everything and enjoyed playing cards and games and also hit up the casino with the whole family they all had a great time !!!
Great house to celebrate my daughter’s 17th birthday. The walk-out lower level, with screened in hot tub, living room, bathroom and bedrooms, was a perfect space for 6 teenage girls. The large upper living space was perfect for the adults and for all of us to gather and eat and hangout. Twelve total in our group and plenty of room for all of us. The walk through the woods to the beach was a fun adventure. Would stay here again. Highly recommend!
We couldn't have asked for a better location in a beautiful home!!
We had everything we needed and we had a wonderful family time together making great memories!!
House suited us so well. 3 couples so all had private spaces including bathrooms. Great kitchen space and lots of room for games and gathering. Easy walk to lovely beach. Close to dining, spa, golf, shopping, etc. with an easy drive.

Thank you, Patricia! Glad the space and location worked well for your group. Best, Valerie and Jacson
Beautiful home on beautiful property. Jacuzzi was awesome. The home was clean and many kitchen items we were not use to having at other rental homes. It was a great place to have a girls weekend!
Great house for a large family. The host was very helpful and responsive. Nice proximity to the beach. I recommend Silver Beach about 15 minutes away, but our dogs loved the closer beach, Hagar. That beach was so nice and close , but my parents could not handle the almost 100 steps to get down. It was our first time to Lake Michigan and I would recommend this house! Just don’t go the Waterfront Restaurant unless there is a big sign reading under new management.
Communication was easy and we received timely instructions on travel and use of the VRBO Property. We loved the open layout and large windows with wooded view. There was a large amount of counter space for casual snacking, meal prep and drink area. Thankyou owners!
The house was wonderful. Very spacious. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Very quiet and private neighborhood. Communication with the host was very easy. Enough supplies in the house to last us our entire trip. We enjoyed our stay.

Thank you, Vanek! We were happy to host you. Come again!
We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with our adult children, their spouses and our one year old twin grandsons. The week was fabulous! Close to stores, restaurants and the beach. We enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub. We had more than enough room. The owners were very responsive and thought if everything! They even had spices for cooking!!!! Just wonderful, I highly recommend this beautiful property!!!

Thank you, Maria! We are so glad the house met the needs for your anniversary celebration. You were great guests!
Beautiful property in the woods with a quick walk to Hagar Beach. Our family and dog had an amazing stay. Very clean and spacious. We had more than enough space to spread out. The kitchen was nothing short of amazing. Cooked most of our meals in. A quiet relaxing vacation with family. We loved how close south haven and St Joe were. 15 minute drive north or south. Thanks so much for sharing your house with us.

Why they chose this property
We enjoy visiting other homes and especially those on or near Lake Michigan. On Valentines' Day 2019, we were on a 'date night', heading into St. Joe and spotted an open house. It was love at first sight! We enjoy hospitality and providing a space for people to gather with their families or friends and create memories and this house provides the perfect space!
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with this home the moment we opened the door! The space opens up into a vaulted ceiling with skylights and large windows span the back and sides, overlooking a wooded ravine. You have the feeling of being in a serene 'treehouse!' The space is open and great for entertaining. It is a short, wooded walk to a terrific local beach park that is kid- and dog-friendly. We love the three season porch downstairs where you can sit in the hot tub and hear the waves of Lake Michigan. (You can see a sliver of Lake MI from the upper level during winter; we're that close!)
